It's funny that "enjoys ice cream" became a defining political trait for Biden. Like, yes he does, but basically everyone does.

"If you give me immunity for my crimes, I'll give you immunity for your crimes. Deal?"
"I haven't committed any crimes."

Hey weird Michael Flynn lied to the FBI about a Trump legal matter, got caught, but got pardoned.

And so did George Papadapoulos.

And so did Alex van Der Zwaan.

And so did Roger Stone.

And so did Paul Manafort.

Weird coincidence.

I just hired an employee who managed things as I was on a leave of absence and things went fine without me. Getting a little pushback from MY boss now because you know, this cheaper employee just did my job.

Of course, he did it for a portion of the year after I managed to complete 3 major projects early so he didn't have to deal with them and I left a month-by-month explanation of how to do everything he had to do. And the one problem that popped up went unresolved until I returned.

That is basically the situation with AI too. You still need someone knowledgeable in the loop to describe the things it needs to do, and handle exceptions.

I appreciate that a state is working on this now even though he's not the nominee yet. It's an open legal question and it needs to be determined to truly give Republican voters the chance to decide who their nominee should be. If he's going to be disqualified it should be now.

Haha. People in his fake stories literally always call him "Sir" it's such a tell.

His actual complaint is:

"$114 million on diversity training, you gotta be kidding me," Tuberville said.

"We've got the weakest military that we've had in probably a year in my lifetime," he added. "Now we've got a lot of good military people, but infiltrating our military is all this wokeness and it's coming from the top, coming from Joe Biden, coming from Secretary of Defense Austin."

First, if it works, it's encouraging better decisions and increasing team effectiveness. I have no idea if the US military is doing a good job with this or not, but if they're doing it right they are building a better military way more cost effectively than one more fighter jet or whatever we would be using the money on.

But even if they're not doing the most effective form of training, it's 0.0075% of the defense budget. It's $40 per person employed by the department. That is extremely average for diversity training.

And lastly, this isn't like, new. The military has been doing diversity research and training since 1971. I'm sure Biden has some input if he wants it, he un-did a Trump ban on some training with an executive order, but I don't think the question of budgeting $90MM vs $114MM goes to "the top" at all.

As I said when Johnson released the footage, it's not going to be any change to what know really happened, there's just going to be all sorts of wild conspiracy theories coming out of idiots seeing blurry images and claiming false things, and the fact checks will disprove them but the fact checks don't get spread to the people who believe the false claims.

At first I thought this was about the Pebble smart watch from 2012. Pretty confused how that becomes a Mastadon instance.

According to the polls, both Biden and Trump will inevitably be nominated but neither Biden nor Trump can win.

Shoulda used Limewire.

If you actually click through the links, it's 53% have "added a credit product" where that credit product is a bank credit card. Says nothing about their debt increasing.

So, 53% of a bunch of 20-somethings opened at least one credit card in a 3 year span when almost all commerce went online and the retail stores that remained stopped accepting cash.

Maybe there's concerning data out there but this isn't it.
