  • Hi, is this available?

  • Trump NRA snub fuels questions about key GOP ally’s influence

  • Or maybe the simplest reason, don't expose the mad king to too much public scrutiny. Having trump speak at an event like this is a benefit to Trump, not the NRA. Just as it is a benefit, it is a detriment if his health and mental ability are in question.

  • How dare you be present! That's just going to result in emotionally grounded adults with a sense of belonging.

  • How exactly is this unconstitutional? Where in the Constitution do we have a right to privacy? SCOTUS has ruled in past cases that some portions of the Constitution create zones of privacy or protect against government intrusion, BUT they most recently ruled in Dobbs that a woman's medical decisions should not be private.

  • This might be the most anemic open ended bill I have ever read. On its face, it has no teeth. The most well defined portions of the bill are to make sure that applications have access to age data. Making this look more like a way for corporations to gather data and verify real people as opposed to online personas.

    There is zero regulation actually defined and instead they have a 180 day period to define the regulation and a year for it to be contacted and implemented. The bill could pass tomorrow and we still wouldn't know what age verification looks like.

    As scary as these efforts are, they are also a bit humorous to me. By and large software exists independently of its creator, especially in the FOSS space. There would be no way to require an individual to install an OS that supported this or even use an updated browser that supported it.

    Ultimately, the only way to really enforce any sort of age verification system is to force all content providers to have an age verification step. This presents as OS level, but you have to give people a reason to upgrade in order to implement. If Wikipedia suddenly required some sort of OS based age verification protocol to access its content, it would become a lot harder to avoid.

    They are putting this at the OS level, but I think this is a way to back into removing anonymous access to the Internet.

  • I wonder how much of the down voting stems from people seeing "let me parent my own kids" as being tied to conservative propaganda used to support anti-woke bills in places like Florida.

  • Yeah, this isn't going to be a free-for-all. Little Suzy isn't going to be able to write an essay on any part she chooses. This will just be bringing Sunday school into public schools. Lessons that are happy and further indoctrinate, avoiding any sort of critical thinking.

  • Schumer Takes No Action As Even Far Right Calls for Impeachment Over Trump’s “Civilization” Threat

    Jump

  • Even if impeachment made it through the House, I doubt the Senate would hold him accountable.

    I'd also argue that most establishment Dems don't actually support impeachment. They view it as divisive.

  • Schumer Takes No Action As Even Far Right Calls for Impeachment Over Trump’s “Civilization” Threat

    Jump

  • I think you greatly overestimate what that power actually is. Most Americans know Sanders and AOC better than Schumer. Even if he has the name recognition and respect that some of the other party celebrities have, it would still be shouting into a void.

    Being vocal isn't going to cause Mike Johnson to suddenly put articles of impeachment up for a vote and there are not enough Republicans in the house that would force the issue.

  • The way this egg peels in infuriating

    Jump

  • I used to do a 12 minute egg with an immediate ice bath. Works well. Egg peels easily. Yolk isn't overcooked.

    Recently switched to the 10-5-5 method. 10 minutes of cook, 5 minutes in the pan but removed from heat, 5 minutes in an ice bath. I'd argue the results are slightly better.

    Always soak your eggs before boiling. This forces any air to escape which reduces the likelihood of your eggs cracking once in the hot water.

  • I had hoped that even the maga members of Congress still had enough spine and self respect to put the rule of law over the promise of power, influence, and the ability to shape their christo-facist state. What a naive fool.
