  1. Anger bump (unless you like two tier justice) https://kansasreflector.com/2024/08/04/judge-who-authorized-kansas-newspaper-raid-escapes-discipline-with-secret-conflicting-explanation/ TOPEKA — The magistrate who authorized last year’s police raid on the Marion County Record escaped discipline from a state panel by making claims that contradict statements in federal lawsuits about how the search warrants arrived in front of her and whether the police chief swore they were true before she signed them. Magistrate Judge Laura Viar’s secret explanation, obtained by Kansas Reflector, adds a new layer of confusion and mystery to how law enforcement were able to carry out the search and seizure of journalists’ computers and cellphones without regard for state and federal laws that prohibit such police action. It also raises concerns about the low standards set for judges by the Kansas Commission on Judicial Conduct.
  2. Lol I thought you were gonna mention his mugshot from Valhalla I bet that cop is keeping his head a bit lower now lol
  3. He's had one hell of a year between winning the Masters, having his first child, and bringing home a golf in Paris
  4. Another thing to consider is that all they've ever known their whole lives is voter suppression and antidemocratic (the system, not the party) propaganda. There's a whole lotta deprogramming that will be necessary, and it takes fucking years
  5. The US embassy in Beirut is advising citizens to leave Lebanon on "any ticket available" https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c80xxeqel5po
  6. The F150 stood up better once they replaced the immediately bent drive shaft. The frame weakness is just fucking insane to me, I don't know how they got its towing capacity certified for 11k lbs. That frame was SO THIN, it was closer to an aircraft frame than a shitkickin truck frame
  7. If a CT had to make an emergency move while pulling a trailer, it may snap it's own ass off. Did you see how THIN the aluminum frame is??
  8. To contextualize Boeings statement that Berger is commenting on, here's Boeing in the beginning of the MAX crisis
  9. Boeing hasn't learned a single fucking lesson from killing hundreds with the MAX, and they've forgotten the lessons of Challenger Ignoring clear problems to push humans onto a known dangerous craft is just wrong
  10. Shittinhouse is getting the full leopards eating faces treatment as he's now being accused of being trans after reneging on trumpco
  11. h/t to RPM for the link; https://futurism.com/the-byte/signs-boeing-starliner-completely-failed Starliner is a lemon and astronauts may not be flying home on it
  12. aside from their uptime and error rates getting alot worse lol
  13. Speaking of legal exposure for muskrat: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/tesla-sued-by-family-motorcyclist-killed-autopilot-crash-2024-08-02/
  14. That's genuinely a potential legal exposure risk for Xitter. There's been enough legislators getting deepfakes made out of them that I would not be surprised to see laws start to get passed regarding it
  15. I disagree, ARM is so customizable that if customized to the right spec frequently beats x86 in raw throughput and processing capacity - not to mention the lower power consumption. That sort of thing probably is going to live more in the datacenter than in end-user devices, but every hyperscaler is releasing in-house designed ARM processors that are often a performance uplift (if your code is ARM compatible). And in terms of client computing I think it's just a matter of time until Qualcomm and Apple build something that's good enough but cheaper than x86 that'll eat away at their base of sales. No doubt that HEDT will still be x86, but that's not really what ARM is meant for anyways
  16. I think the kids were raised thinking they were Argentinian, not American, considering that putin greeted them in Spanish. But yeah wow I can't imagine how those kids have got to be feeling right now. It's like something out of a movie
  17. think you could get away with something like "McCombs"? It would be UT-flavorful, but idk what the university's feelings would be
  18. Seeing the GOP completely short circuiting on the idea of someone with more than one ethnic background or identity was an incredible mass self-report
