A flight today is more than the flight I paid for 3 months ago. But a step in the right direction I guess.

It usually happens after I get mad at it.

You know, it was tough, but in the end we won. With 11 boys for and 10 girls against.

I’ll play the advocate here. What good would persecution do now? They wouldn’t stop him in time. All that would do is allow Trump and Musk to claim political persecution.

And if they did start an investigation, would it be complete before the election? What if they filed charges before? So what.

Smart play is to wait. Win. Prosecute with four years of time ahead.

Basically… maybe they will do something still?

There are three decisions a leader can make: Yes, no, not right now.

Not true. Those pieces look like they fit together.

Edit: I bet it even came with human readable instructions.

Someone watched the Garfield movie and said, “This gives me an idea…”

No, but I bet it’s multiple of 6!

Freezy peaches you say?

I’ll give you your references. Will have to read later.

I’ve seen the reports. I highly doubt any of the arm chair statisticians (who have never taken a day of mathematical or proof-level stats) have a clue what they are talking about. The polls’ histories and lean are factored into 538’s averages. They are not new to this.

And how many polls are left leaning? The graph posted a couple of days ago on midwest claims 35% are right leaning, and a correlation with the drop in support for Harris. What it doesn’t say is the proportion of democratic polls, and there really isn’t a correlation over the length of history shown.

Hard to make informed decisions when half the information is hidden. (But arm chair statisticians don’t recognize the issue do they?)

Lol at people downvoting what they don’t want to hear.

Credibility: High - Factual Reporting: High

On a positive note, Harris is still leading 4/7 swing states in the WaPo averages: https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/interactive/2024/presidential-polling-averages/

Ugh. I blame it on autocorrect and swipe.

Yes, absolutely Serbian. You can tell because of the way they are.

• Despite sanctions, Russia adapts by engaging with strategic partners like China to circumvent restrictions.

• China has replaced Western nations as a major supplier of goods to Russia, with trade between the two reaching $240 billion in 2023. In 2021, the total trade between the two countries was approximately $147 billion.

• Specific exports from China to Russia include CNC machines, semiconductors, microelectronics, ball bearings, nitrocellulose, drones, and construction equipment.

• The Sino-Russian relationship has deepened, with both nations criticizing the U.S. and increasing their cooperation.

Bottom line: China don’t care. But we knew this already.

Iranian cyber actors’ use of brute force and other techniques to compromise organizations across multiple critical infrastructure sectors, including the healthcare and public health (HPH), government, information technology, engineering, and energy sectors.

It seems they’ve abstracted the term “critical infrastructure” to refer to the organizations that perform critical functions within society, not necessarily the networks running nuclear power plants.

But also, commercial entities don’t exactly have access to NSA encryptors… so your alternative is to disconnect everything. And that’s not feasible.

Does he mean she was on a mission in a different way than he was, with all of Fox’s dubious assertions inextricably tied to each of his questions?

This headline is terrible. I have nothing good to say about the police either.

Dunk your computer in water first, then the rice will have more effect.

Perfect timing for my new year of cheap sirius radio. I honestly never signed up for a promo before because I knew how difficult canceling was.

Okay, which one is missing?
