Now I got that ZZ Top intro ear-worm…

Oh, come on now. “Uniparty” really… Let’s not forget how many different options the republicans give their voters: we have the outright amoral pathological liars, like Trump, and Santos, and maybe even the new speaker; and then we have the freedom clowns who want to “deconstruct the administrative state” and shut everything down. And if those don’t appeal, there’s the laws and order religious fanatics who want to ban books, and abortions, and gays, and stuff. And let’s not forget the traditional establishment, who want to get themselves and their overloads obscenely rich before the walls come down. Did I forget anyone?

I suspect they delayed as long as they did to make sure that any evidence aged beyond legal use, such as any security camera footage was wiped and rewritten, etc. I have no idea, but I assume this isn’t just manslaughter, it’s destroying evidence as well.

Same. I wasn’t paying attention, and just assumed an update would migrate everything, but I found out I wasn’t even sure what Lemmy instance and password I was using (rookie mistake, but App Store updates don’t usually wipe everything). Happy to say after some tense minutes I figured it out, and reported the “bug.”

So, essentially try to force Xitter to the hard right, making it the social media equivalent of Faux News. Anyone with a little common sense will bail, leaving the echo chamber to ferment in its own toxic vapors. Now, if only a Smartmatic incident would occur.

I enjoyed how the author used the name “Xitter” (and how it may be pronounced), instead of the tedious “formerly known as” moniker.

Meadows argued that his arrangement and presence during the phone call was simply a part of his job.

AKA, the Nuremberg defense. (Hint: it didn’t work so well then either.)

Well, that’s overdue, but to be honest a lot of dry cleaning solvents are either toxic (Chloroform, Triclor) or greenhouse gasses (1,1,1 Tricloroethane, Freons), and most if not all come from petroleum sources. Unfortunately, we need them, or replacements anyway, for things as varied as whiteout correction fluid, industrial degreasers, and household cleaners. Finding cheap ways to make substitutes (like limonene, lactates, acetals) from natural sustainable sources is a huge challenge.

(or)… but you can't wipe your friends off on your saddle.

And where’s Taiwan?

Just FYI: Media Bias Fact/Check reports Reclaim The Net as having a right-wing bias and mixed factual credibility.

well-being of the business…ahead of well-being of his employees.

Hey, I mean, like, corporations are people too, man.
