While typical transits through the waterway are paid by a flat rate via reservations, the Panama Canal Authority also offers customers an auction process in order to bypass the regular queue. Ship owners are shelling out millions of dollars to use the auction workaround as the Iran war forces more congestion at the Panama Canal, which links the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific.
The One Big Beautiful Bill funded the majority of ICE through the shutdown - some civilian support positions were affected, but enforcement activity stayed pretty much the same. The reduction in coverage is far more likely due to both Noem and Bovino being kicked out of their jobs, taking their high-confrontation tactics with them. Homan is doing the same work, just in a quieter, less confrontational manner.
They’ve always had funding. The more recent budget funds then through 2028.
Fuck you, Schumer.
It’s probably a deliberate attempt to steal someone else’s data and they’re just blaming AI if they were caught. Once they have whatever info they wanted, it’s too late to get it back.
Rogan’s already made some moves in that direction - nothing firm, but enough to pivot to (or away from) if he decides to.
Translation: MAGAts who helped create and enable this entire shit show but who have lost their grift, attempt to reposition themselves for a return to some kind of power later on.
Lol, you’re not wrong. It’s at the American Dream Mall, which is like the second largest mall in the States. The mall has an indoor ski slope that covers like 4 acres. This ride is actually part of the Nickelodeon Universe theme park that’s also inside the mall (the NU park is about 8 acres). There’s also an 8 acre water park in the mall as well. Plus a 3000-seat performing arts venue. Plus a mini-golf course, laser tag, a human crane thing, a climbing gym, other stuff I can’t remember. That’s just the entertainment part, not counting the stores and food and stuff.
You know the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where they held the World Cup final? The American Dream Mall is like literally right across the road from MetLife. And the stadium is smaller.
Oh, that’s hardly true. I also want to hear about Alex Jones when he’s (a) living penniless on the streets, (b) suffering a painful and humiliating disease, or © dead.
In one of the threads I ran across, he was accused of having several alt accounts. I would suspect at least a couple of them will remain open.
Because they’re getting pushback from towns, but can still use the air.
Welcome to the pyrocene.
make it dip further into its pool of human resources.
Remember, HR is there to protect the company Kremlin, not you!
“We’ve got to tighten up the policy and make sure everyone is aligned and then turn [the Los Angeles camera system] back on,” [Flock co-founder and CEO Garrett] Langley said.
Sucks to be you, then, doesn’t it.
“The technology is really simple,” he told ABC7. “A car drives by, we take a picture. It’s a static picture of a car, and then we read the license plate. That’s what the technology is – it’s actually not that complicated, it’s pretty simple.”
Sure. Just the license plate. Which is why the ACLU says that you collect “make, model and color of a car, other identifiers like scratches and dents, and anything else they can see.” It can include items “such as trailers, toolboxes, bumper stickers, or bike racks.” That’s why your cameras have audio detection hardware. That’s why your cameras are on biking trails, where no cars will be found.
Then using data analysis like that in Finding Paul Revere reveals a bunch of information about your habits, your friendships, and your associations. But, sure, you have nothing to lose :/
The arguments I used to have with Musk fanbois on reddit …
You know, I read “Donald Trump lost his temper with a reporter” and my immediate thought was “It must’ve been a female reporter”. Three words later, yep! [I’m mostly only surprised that he didn’t insult her as well.]
Twofold thoughts on this. First, it’s the same thing they do everywhere: if they can’t get the big win, they start chipping away at the edges, the fringe cases that let them establish precedents they can use later.
And secondly, it’s a defensive move, to further differentiate the territories from the states, so that future efforts to give statehood to these areas will fail. In a really cynical viewpoint, it establishes subservient status for territories, including future “acquisitions” like they keep referring to
It’s not even a particularly well laid-out column; she rambles back and forth.
Where’s that cartoon, the one with the MAGAt thanking the gay guy for helping to round up the last of the trans people, and the gay guy says, “You’re welcome! Who are we going after next?” And the MAGAt just stands there smiling at him.
Like, what did she expect was going to happen?! Oh, I see:
Many will say I should have seen this coming — that the right has and always will be against LGBT rights. And maybe there’s some truth to that. But that just wasn’t my experience.
Translation: repression isn’t real unless it’s happening to ME.
Mrs Goebbels made a lovely strudel.
