Yes, but you need to start one and pop in every once in a while so they always remember that you COULD.

He's gonna walk because of the chain of custody issues with the alleged murder weapon anyway. Plenty of outdoor clawfoot tub practice by the time he hits silver fox status in his future anyway.

I always love it when people challenge the conventional wisdom no matter what.

Hey, this thing you take for granted... What if we didn't?

I'm a fan of modal editors.

But this still makes me cackle with glee.

To be fair, Bob Roberts did dedicate tonight's performance of "The Times Are a-Changin' Back" to him.

At rush hour in Los Angeles I could get 15 miles across the city in 45-50 minutes by fixed gear, obeying traffic laws. The same journey by car typically took 70-80 minutes.

How could I forget the first RATM album!?

This is tough. Just one? I mean Portishead, Indigo Girls, and Radiohead each made 2 in the decade. Massive Attack three.

Loveless, Empty Bottles Broken Hearts, and a few others in there too.

But I'll keep it simple.

Mazzy Star - So Tonight That I Might See

I left ig seven months ago and I haven't been happier since I got on ig 11 years before.

And pray tell, what is its name?

I never liked KDE, too slick. Gnome has gone from shit to amazing and back more times than I care to count. 18 months ago had been without a Linux daily driver for a decade (had a backup / toy with xfce or cb++ most of that time) and went for i3, recently sway. Changed everything.

Also to add the M chips are downright impressive. This is not from personal experience running one but from looking at specs and hearing anecdotes from a lot of pros and students, anyone spending under 1k on a laptop is best off with an Apple Silicon.

That's fair. Yeah, your typical person is 10x better off on Mac than Linux even. I've used PC and Mac professionally as interchangeably as is possible for 25 years. Linux personally for a lot of that time, but been using it for work for 18 months and found it much less painless than I anticipated.

Also, having installed and maintaining Debian with Gnome for a normie I can say it is ready for primetime - even for regular users. And that's FAR from the most user / new user friendly distro!

A student who has a new laptop and keeps accidentally hitting the Copilot KEY that is now installed in the bottom row. And it stops whatever you're doing to beg you to use it. You have to change registry values to remap it. It's one of the most insanely intrusive Dark Patterns I've ever seen.

Each of you is one of us. The other is the kind of friend we each need.

The D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force established in Executive Order 14252 of March 27, 2025 (Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful), shall establish an online portal for Americans with law enforcement or other relevant backgrounds and experience to apply to join Federal law enforcement entities to support the policy goals described in Executive Order 14333. Each law enforcement agency that is a member of the D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force, as well as other relevant components of the Department of Justice as the Attorney General determines, shall further, subject to the availability of appropriations and applicable law, immediately create and begin training, manning, hiring, and equipping a specialized unit that is dedicated to ensuring public safety and order in the Nation’s capital that can be deployed whenever the circumstances necessitate, and that could be deployed, subject to applicable law, in other cities where public safety and order has been lost. ( (ii) The Secretary of Defense shall immediately begin ensuring that each State’s Army National Guard and Air National Guard are resourced, trained, organized, and available to assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety and order whenever the circumstances necessitate, as appropriate under law. In coordination with the respective adjutants general, the Secretary of Defense shall designate an appropriate number of each State’s trained National Guard members to be reasonably available for rapid mobilization for such purposes. In addition, the Secretary of Defense shall ensure the availability of a standing National Guard quick reaction force that shall be resourced, trained, and available for rapid nationwide deployment.

Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

She could be guilty af but did nothing wrong.
