Our wetware neutral networks probably aren't supposed to engage with synthetic content like this either. In a few years we're gonna learn that overexposure to AI generated content creates some sort of neurological problem in people, like a real-world "nerve attenuation syndrome" (Johnny Mnemonic).

It's called being let go with a warning. It's letting you know your threats are being taken seriously, and that consequences are coming if you don't stop.

And what has he done since? Gone back online and said that killing Kamala Harris is constitutionally protected because of the Second Amendment... (It is not)

I hope they arrest him, because making terroristic threats is, in fact, a crime.

Yes, I am absolutely okay with this. Violent threats and calls for murder are not protected speech, and there should be legal consequences for them. Free speech is not absolute.

Look at him now disappearing a cow Marjory Stewart-Baxter, you taste like sunshine dust Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime Like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime we are here to protect you from the terrible secret of space

Anyone who wants to fix this can help fix it, but people are just making demands of an unpaid maintainer. The devs can run this project the way they want to. If you don't like it, don't use Ventoy.

The people comparing this to the xz exploit are out of line. xz was a library that was deeply embedded in a lot of software. Ventoy is an IT tool used to boot live OSes. Not even remotely the same attack surface.

Blobs in the source tree are not ideal, but people need to pick their battles.

they completely abandoned everything they ran on

First and foremost, no she didn't. She's still one of the most progressive members of Congress, and she continues to fight for realistic progressive policies including universal healthcare, free college, and housing as a human right.

You're welcome to disagree though. Move to her district so you can campaign and vote against her if it really matters to you. Her district keeps reelecting her (82.2% of the vote this year) so I guess she presently represents them quite well.

Or, if relocating so that you get a say in AOC's representative abilities isn't a part of your game plan, consider campaigning for the kind of representation you want to see for your current congressional district. Take a stand where you actually get a voice.

But your constant opposition to Democrats, two months away from an election where Fascism is knocking at the door, isn't helpful. If your goal is a progressive future, you need to be paying attention to what's on the line right now. If your priority is to purity test Liberals instead of campaigning against Fascist Republicans like lives depend on it (they do), then you've completely lost the plot.

One side (R) is starting Pograms and threatening genocide against millions of immigrants. The other (D) doesn't promise your ideal leftist utopia. Think hard about which of these concessions you're willing to accept as you continue constantly attacking Democrats with nobody lined up to replace them but Republicans.

As far as I can tell, The Harris/Walz campaign hasn't officially responded to this endorsement. Are you getting mad about stuff that hasn't even happened?

Believe it or not, the Harris/Walz campaign doesn't orchestrate endorsements. Anyone can endorse a candidate with or without that candidate's knowledge, permission, or acknowledgement.

Harris may be getting the endorsement of old-school/moderate Republicans, but Trump has the endorsement of extremist/far-right Republicans and Neo-Nazis.

If you can't pick a side here, that's entirely your own moral failure.

The Guardian is a newspaper. They are just covering the news.

Other outlets are covering this also, including conservative ones.

You are way too eager to find a conspiracy here... I promise you, this British newspaper isn't run by and for American Democrats.

If you read the article (or even just the headline) you'll see that she isn't campaigning against the 13th amendment's punishment clause. She's campaigning on abolishing subminimum wages for the disabled.

If gravity is a particle, and that's a big "if", then the inescapable attractive force of a black hole would be the result of that particle's action, so what exactly would it be escaping? Itself?

You're just repeating the same tired old "Liberals are just as bad" bullshit everyone has heard a thousand times already. Not a single point here is true.

I have zero reason to believe she "blindly supports the military", though I suppose that depends on what level of support for the military you object to.

She has spoken far more directly about a ceasefire and has been more concerned about Palestinian civilians than most other politicians.

As for the "compromises with fascists" claim, that's just bullshit, and you know it. Yeah, I know, she's got the endorsement of many old school Republicans, but Trump isn't an old school Republican. It makes sense that more intellectually honest Republicans, even if I disagree with them immensely, aren't interested in another Trump term.

Unless you have something productive and realistic to recommend on how we both stop fascist accelerationism by defeating Trump, and also gain more progressive leadership than Harris, I honestly don't want to hear what you have to say, because I have friends and family that might not survive a second Trump term. A couple of people close to me didn't survive the first Trump term...

(And you can leave third parties at the door, because I've already made it clear I don't want another Trump term)

It definitely sounds like an 'n' sound.

And his mouth doesn't close when he says it, so it certainly looks like an 'n' sound.

But I'll humor you on the suggestion that he just pronounced "mig" funny: Why did he pronounce "rents" as "iggers"?

Explain how it's bullshit.

I don’t know that conceal carry rights are actually in danger, but I can see why conservatives are worried about it

This is such a stupid thing to say. "I know that they are completely wrong, but I understand why they feel they way they do". Why empathize with liars with violent paranoia?

They're still fucking wrong. Fuck their fragile, gullible feelings.

The great replacement conspiracy theory is explicitly racist, not classist.

That doesn't mean you're being replaced. It means demographics are changing, like they always do.

If you feel threatened by that, you do you, but I don't give a shit.

Trump: /openly peddles Neo-Nazi rhetoric/

Neo-Nazis: /Celebrate that Trump and friends are peddling their propaganda/

Salon: /Reports on the mainstreaming of extremist political views by Trump and other Republicans/

You: "Salon should shut the fuck up"

It seems you picked a side in this issue, and that side is decidedly against the press and not against Fascism.

I wonder what it's like to be a Haitian living in Springfield right now, seeing people relentlessly posting uncritical memes about the former president's racist lies, while various schools, businesses, and government offices are closed day after day due to threats of violence...

Can't log in anymore without seeing weird photoshops of cats and dogs being cooked and eaten. TikTok is covered in people dancing to remixes of Trump's racist comments. I'm sure this is all helping /s

This only affects the ultra rich, so maybe they have it coming to them.

Don't be reductive. Anyone who owns $100M worth of investments, be they stocks, bonds, or real estate holdings, needs to pay more in taxes.

This is targeting 1%ers hoarding capital, not your rental properties. We'll come after landlords' underserved income later as we further tackle the housing affordability crisis.

347 Mbit/s maximum. (But don't expect that at 9.9 miles...)

The "WiFi HaLow"name itself indicates lower power usage than traditional Wifi, largely because it uses the 900MHz band instead of the 2.4/5/6GHz bands.

Likewise, it isn't compatible with existing WiFi client devices that don't operate at those bands.

Yeah, historical accuracy is implicitly anti-Conservative. Before you know it you'll be asking for such biased things as "evidence" and "accountability".

“My father is running out of lives here,” son Eric Trump told Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “How many more rifles are going to come within assassination distance of my father?”

THEY'RE BLAMING THE GUNS! 😂

So you're saying that we should be concerned with datacenters more than things like factory farming and oil & gas?

I don't follow. I need a lot more evidence of harm before I become "very concerned" about datacenters specifically.

Between AI and shitcoin mining, these two "technology branches" already consume more power than all the green power added to the grid combined.

I think you would be shocked if you learned what some other things in our world cost in CO2.

The energy costs of cryptocurrency mining are easy to calculate because the system is extremely transparent. AI is a little muddier, but we know how much big tech is expanding data centers, and we know how many enterprise GPUs Nvidia sells, so we get a decent estimate.

But these things don't actually do as much damage as compared to other things. Imagine how much energy is used for Gaming PCs and consoles. It's probably up there with Crypto and AI if you consider all running consoles and PCs, plus all the multiplayer infrastructure. But we don't have numbers because this is hard to calculate.

And then there's stuff like personal automobiles, that completely blow these other things out-of-the-water.

What do you disagree with specifically? It only affects people with over $100M in wealth.

Do you think the tax goes too far, and if so, why are you protecting the wealth of the 1%?

Or do you think the tax doesn't go far enough, and if so, wouldn't opposition it just mean not passing a tax at all, which would be worse?

Or do you know nothing about her proposal and thought it was going to affect your paltry investment income?

It's more like the Republican party has moved so far to the extreme that other party members are endorsing the opposition party candidate because they recognize who the lesser of two evils is.

Kamala is a shift to the left from Biden. You should be fucking happy.

Yeah, he recognizes that the Republican party can survive a Harris presidency, but not a Trump presidency.

That would be a compelling reason to vote for Trump if I wasn't certain that the entire Republic will collapse if he gets another term.

Welcome to a world without medical privacy.

In the USA this wouldn't happen because we have HIPAA.

We also used to have Roe v. Wade...

Congratulations on being the right combination of passible straight, white, cisgender, male, and Christian to not worry about the consequences of another Trump term.

The rest of us don't have the luxury of purity-testing Harris because the alternative is a fascist who wants us dead.

Regardless, the fact that old school Republicans are endorsing a Democrat over the fascist should serve as evidence that Trump is bad even for a Republican, but folks like you seem more interested in painting Harris as the more conservative candidate for some reason. It's almost like you prefer Trump...

Battle Royale is about kids killing each other, not being killed in the course of competitive trials.

If anything, Hunger Games is a bigger culprit for that.

The movie "Luck" came out 13 years before Squid Game...

Hard to steal content from the future.

Someone's butthurt that Republican candidates are so detested that even their own family members come out condemning their policy positions.

Cry about it.

Glad you two found a way to make this about yourselves.

How can your third party ever have a seat at the table when they put all their resources and funding into national elections they can't win?

The right wing is trying to start a race war in Ohio, and people are posting pictures and videos of themselves pretending to cook and eat their pets, and remixing Trump's racist statements into songs.

People need to stop blasting Trump's own bigotry like it's a meme, and start defending Haitian immigrants from hate and violence. Nazi groups are Marching on Springfield already.
