  • From the lack of private funding, I assume the projected ROI for the pipeline is not good.

  • I don't think something that lists 21% as "Unknown" should be taken seriously.

  • Pretty sure the blonde lady is Kristen Wiig's Palm Royale character.

  • The check in requirement turned out to only be for the first two weeks after buying a game, so you can't refund the game and keep playing it offline forever.

  • The filing deadline was March 23 and he returned to the House last week, a little over 3 months after that, so I think he would have been MIA for a few weeks before the filing deadline.

  • Rep. Tom Kean was missing for four months without much explanation and there have been no consequences.

    Even Speaker Mike Johnson suggested Kean should have said more sooner at a news conference Tuesday: “If it were me, I would have been more specific about that, and I encouraged him to be.”

    Dude won his primary unopposed while he still missing.

  • Hurting minorities: There's a totally non-racist reason

    Helping minorities: Unacceptable consideration of race/Racist against white people

  • The Supreme Court already said these exact Trump comments weren't racist in the TPS case and that was 6-3. And they seem OK with Trump hating immigrants.

    But no, Alito said. There’s a perfectly nonracial explanation for all of the dog whistles. “None of the cited statements by either the President or the Secretary was overtly racial, and in substance all expressed policy views that could rest on race-neutral justifications.” In other words, the Trump administration hates all types of immigration and wanted to roll back the TPS system as a whole; therefore, it couldn’t have acted racially in its decision. On top of that, the court said that it’s pretty much just a coincidence that the majority of TPS countries are predominantly nonwhite. That’s not the administration’s fault; it’s because “the great majority of countries granted TPS have ranked among the poorest nations of the world, and no European nation falls into that category.” The stability (and therefore superiority) of European nations is evidence to be used against any argument that the Trump administration was unfairly motivated by illegal racial animus.

  • Microsoft is not going to remove .NET to attract software developers when they want developers to use .NET. Not having access to software that uses .NET probably wouldn't be a good trade off for how little removing it from Windows would do to make Windows lighter.

  • I bet she doesn't mind when ICE goons cover their faces.

  • It's by IP:

    The maths is brutal. On a match day, blocking just 4 to 20 IP addresses knocked out more than 400,000 unrelated domains. The outage lasted as long as the game.

    None of this is new in kind, only in scale. Courts across Europe have long ordered providers to block pirate sites. Spain runs one of the continent’s most aggressive regimes. What has changed is the plumbing. The web now runs on shared infrastructure, so a crude IP block is a shotgun, not a scalpel.

  • Is smiting a valid punishment for blasphemy? If "god" would smite some of these assholes I might just become a believer.

  • Premium includes Google's equivalent of paid Spotify. Premium Lite and free users get something closer to Spotify's free tier.

  • The tier makes sense, if not the name. Google insists on including music streaming in Youtube Premium, and Premium Lite is a cheaper tier that doesn't include music streaming. It's missing some other features too, but it beats Premium for people who just want to not have ads and for some reason won't use an ad blocker.

    This support page about Premium Lite says it has no ads on "most non-music content, excluding Shorts. Ads may appear when you search or browse". Still having ads on music content makes sense given that Premium Lite doesn't include music streaming.

  • "Must"? Yeah right. If he's not going to get locked up for not paying he'll just keep not paying.

  • That seems like he thought a threesome is the three-person equivalent of a pair. I don't know if "trio" would have been more correct but it definitely would have been less weird.

  • It's not like all the existing discs are going to disintegrate when Sony stops making new ones.

  • They also just announced that the PS3 and Vita Playstation Stores will be shutting down, starting next month in certain regions and everywhere by July 2027. At some point in the future it will be impossible to buy games for your old PS6 because it doesn't support discs and the Playstation Store doesn't support the system.

  • As an added "bonus", the jerks could also use the airport pregnancy tests to keep pregnant women from traveling to somewhere they could get an abortion.
