there’s no one to blame that doesn’t have an R by their name.

Are you kidding? They’ll be scapegoating Biden’s corpse so long and so hard even the DNC will blush. And then there’s always Obama as a backup plan.

Life is cake when absolutely nothing is your fault.

So, all the uploaders deserve a ban?

Plot twist: the toddler has a multi-year marketing push worth tens if not hundreds of millions, which convinced a lot of people who don’t know the first thing about chess that it really is very impressive, and all those chess-types are just jealous.

The narrative, as I understand it, is that the dictatorship they fled is the left, so left bad, right good. Doesn’t matter that the political “left” in the US is center-right.

It’s brain-dead tribalism all the way down.

And then hung. Also comically.

Resource hidden where we can’t see it? Best to assume it’s infinite and there will be no repercussions.

And just look at all those anchor babies.

The problem is that there are people behind the scenes goose-stepping on regardless.

This is something that even larger corps struggle with. My old company would buy some other company, lay off a bunch of people, others would quit, and then it was shocked Pikachu faces all around when That One Thing stopped working in an office they turned into a ghost town and, well, no, nobody was going to be there until Monday morning to power cycle etc. True lights out/OOB reachability is WORK. And there’s always going to be a SPOF somewhere that requires hands on-site.

Do what you can, when you can. And thank you for all that y’all have done so far.

Thanks for the heads up, try not to stress too much.

I used to enjoy the old Joystiq site. Followed them to Engadget. Hell, I used the Joystiq url redirect bookmark until it stopped working. Might as well just delete the bookmark now, no sense it watching it slide further into irrelevancy.

That’s what she said.

It could be worse.

Getting a heat pump has been on my want-to-do list for years. But even though my furnace is aging, it still works so it’s been hard to justify while there were other issues going on. Accelerating adoption is only going to make the process easier when the time comes.

Yeah, this shit happens all the time in NJ. Related to someone powerful? Here, have a free political position!

Andy Kim is getting my vote in the primary but with Murphy getting anointed like this, the full weight of the machine is going to be behind her.

It’s almost as if political dynasties/neoptism/cronyism shouldn’t be a thing. Fuck Trump. And fuck Menendez. And Kennedy. Bush, Clinton, Cheney, Paul, Ashcroft, and probably dozens of others that aren’t coming immediately to mind.

Form the minute lil Robert declared he was running, the local media simply treated him as the heir to his dad’s old seat. Because it was true. He cruised on connections, many of them because his daddy is a crook. I’m hoping Andy Kim can primary senior if he wriggles free again, but Murphy’s wife is also running and would you look at that, now we’re right back at unqualified people pretending they can govern just because of who they’re related to.

Maybe one day junior will prove that he’s not just riding coattails as a golden boy. But it’s going to take more than an outburst to do it.
