SENATOR @warnock.senate.gov : “Are we reading the same Book? The Book I know says ‘I was hungry, and you fed me… I was a stranger, and you welcomed me… insomuch as you’ve done it to the least of these, you’ve done it also unto me.’”

Chief Miles Edward O'Brien, who could strangle you with a cordless phone if he wanted to, is pictured. Chief O'Brien, who can kill 2 stones with 1 bird, is facing the camera and winking. O'Brien, who can dribble a bowling ball, is on DS9 station and wearing his classic gold uniform, and has the energy of a man who is walking away from an explosion without looking backwards at it. Closed caption reads, "He was more than a hero. He was a union man."
I've seen a lot of posts about how shitty the bomb was and folks, if someone makes a bomb that blows up when they want it to blow up they are automatically in the top like, 1% of bomb-guys
I sold advertising in a past life. “Puffery” includes a lot more than I think people realize. Who IS that fifth dentists who just hates toothpaste??
They probably are
Any Democrat arguing Harris focused too much on things like Trans rights needs to be launched out of a cannon.
It means they literally believed Trump over their own candidate.
Harris really couldn't have run a campaign LESS focused on trans rights, she basically never mentioned them.

Cybercrud takes numerous forms. All of them, however, share the patina of "science" that computers have for the layman. 1a) COMPUTER AS MAGIC WORD The most delicate, and seemingly innocent, technique is the practice of naming things so as spuriously to suggest that they involve computers. Thus there is a manufacturer of pot-pipes with "Data" in its name, and apparently a pornography house with a "Cyber-", 1b) COMPUTER AS MAGIC INGREDIENT The above seems silly, but it is no less silly than talking about "computer predictions" and "computer studies" of things. The mere fact that a computer is involved in something has no bearing on its character or validity. The way things are done with computers affects their character and validity, just like the way things are done without computers. (Indeed, merely using a computer often has no bearing on the way things are done.)
Petition to bring back the term "Cybercrud" for what's happening right now with "AI" (from "Computer Lib", 1974)
I know our major media outlets are busy doing 10 stories per day about Ivy League campus intrigue but I feel like the fact that 215 bodies were discovered in a pit behind a jail in Jackson MS earlier this year probably merited a mention or two. Maybe even a few follow up questions.
I’m big on the pig!
There are numerous AI chatbots closer to self-awareness than this
funniest outcome of the Trump immunity case is the court finds that the President has complete immunity and then Biden immediately kills Trump

Good morning, Bluesky.
Let's talk about Mickey Mouse. And how much of the Mouse is now available for everyone's use.
tl:dr - In the real world, you can usee as much as either Disney lets you, or as much as you're willing to spend 6- to 7-figures fighting Disney over.

A particularly striking example of how divorced the public discourse on “antisemitism at Harvard” is from the actual situation at Harvard: the person who wrote this has never taught a class at Harvard Divinity School. I teach Judaism at Harvard Divinity School, and I teach about all these topics…
hot take: the rise of the youtube tutorial is one of the worst things to happen to hobbies. 75% of the time, a written description with about 10 photographs would be a better method of explaining things.
This goes up to 100% of the time when dealing with software issues
