  1. More importantly, the Imperial Court has given trumpco ever more arrows in its quiver to delaydelaydelay any sort of possible accountability for the crime that was broadcast on national television. They're adding more rules and qualifiers to a pretty fuckin cut and dry issue, solely for the benefit of one donald jail trump
  2. The republican voters want to vote to give more wealth and power to the oligarch class, therefore their interests are aligned with the Imperial Court
  3. Look man, do you want to increase shareholder value or not you commie pinko
  4. I'm making espresso on a Breville Bambino Plus, so still pretty pedestrian in espresso land but it makes a great cup
  5. IMO elmo doesn't know wtf his company is actually doing with FSD. His spat a couple weeks ago with the creator of computer vision, the sole tech his cars use to """self drive""", made that very clear. He knows how to sell it and hype it to useful idiot investors and customers, and that's all that really matters ultimately. It sounds like he's saying he doesn't have enough onboard compute to process the data fast enough, but based on his description it really sounds like they just have a crap driving model. I've built/trained vision-only self driving ML models and there's just no getting around how finicky they are with solely visual data
  6. It took me a few tries to find the right grind setting, it arrived set to basically Turkish coffee fine and I've got it almost replicating what I had my hand grinder dialed into. The stepless adjustment screw is great and smooth, it's surprisingly quiet, and it arrived within 5 days of ordering 10/10 would recommend. No fancy bells and whistles, but its got a magnetic cup that indexes itself below the chute and bellows to push out retained grounds and a simple on/off button on the side
  7. It's like Greg Davis is in charge
  8. You're doing your weird act again where you diminish just how bad this is and you keep using minimizing language to describe the systemic issue. If the qualification is """CLEARLY""" unconstitutional, then that fuckin standard is gonna get calvinball'd to hell and back by this batch of imperial supremes. The fact that you ignore this reality is maddening. It puts ever more barriers between Trump and accountability for the FUCKING FASCIST COUP ATTEMPT THAT HAPPENED ON LIVE NATIONAL TV THREE AND A HALF YEARS AGO
  9. AI generated weirdness like that is like 90% of boomer facebook now
  10. You're doing this weird thing where you aren't considering and treating those homeless people as if they aren't citizens or even human beings. It's absolutely about involuntary homelessness - cities do nothing to help these people out of that situation, and angry internet boomer-minded people like yourself only want to punish those people for having the temerity to be poor. Where the fuck are they supposed to go? It seems like pissing in the wind to spend all this energy on punishing them, when there's nothing being done to prevent the overload of homelessness across the nation. Or maybe you just get your rocks off on looking down on the less fortunate, who's to say
  11. What's more frustrating is the continued insistence from many of the legal community that this is how things are supposed to work, and that deviating in the slightest means becoming trump. As if our current path is not barreling towards an authoritian or future trump figure riding roughshod over our democracy. There's nothing to be fuckin proud of this 4th of July. In the last month we've seen the supreme court legalize bribery, gut the EPA and every other regulatory agency, and now make the president an effective king. What the fuck is happening
  12. Hell yeah, those sorts of trips were the highlight of marching band in highschool! Kicked em ten tree fiddies
  13. Darth Bortles is Squid Game's son??

    LBGTQ

    Yeah Annie, we know your overseers don't want to pay out claims for gender affirming care. It's bad for profit margins Being a cunt about it is just a bonus for you
  15. I can't disagree that neither party does a good job of actually governing, but I think it's important to consider the "why". Republicans actively want to take away civil rights and turn women into chattel and have been destroying public education for their donors private ed play. Democrats are just a hot mess of out of touch olds fighting internal power squabbles rather than focusing on actual political strategic outcomes. The repubs are actively shitty, and the dems are just incredibly ineffectual and distractible. I do think the "why" matters even if outcomes are shit either way
  16. I'm pretty excited, finally upgrading from my hand grinder to an SK40! It arrives today and I am looking forward to one less step to get my coffee lol
  17. More sweetheart deals for the criminal corporation that kills hundreds through poor airmanship negligence https://www.cbsnews.com/news/boeing-plea-deal-deferred-prosecution-agreement/ Javier de Luis, who was a member of the Federal Aviation Administration's expert review panel on Boeing's safety culture and whose sister was killed in the 2019 737 Max crash, said following Sunday's call with the Justice Department, "The issue is not whether there should be trial vs a plea deal. The issue is that the penalties being proposed by the DoJ are totally inadequate both from the perspective of accountability for the crimes committed, and from the perspective of acting in the public interest by ensuring a change in Boeing's behavior." "The penalties proposed here are essentially the same as those proposed under the previous DPA which, as Alaska Air demonstrated, did nothing to increase the safety of the flying public," de Luis said, referencing the January mid-air blowout of a door on an Alaska Airlines flight.
  18. Yeah the writing level of this show is like the old star wars young adult novels lol. Reframed that way, the show makes alot more sense
  19. Sounds like a great way to burn years of political capital just to pass a law that clarence and alito don't just knock down for a fee
  20. Lmfao you think that "rex is wrong" is equally likely to the cowbs winning for the first time in a generation?
