In my world the 2010’s were very much “cloud” and “devops”

Now it’s 100% “AI”

Obama was a dynasty? I must’ve missed those other Obama elections.

While I 100% agree, his own surrogates like Peter Navarro are trying to distance themselves from Tony’s set. This means that Trumps team at least thinks this is a problem.

Additionally, I don’t think there exists a realistic single event that will cause Trump supporters to leave in droves, but there are hundreds of thousands of Americans with Puerto Rican heritage between Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Maybe this encourages 10% of them to go vote if they were originally planning to sit this one out. 50k more votes for Harris would likely make the difference.

Even though her voters can help elect Harris, I’m so sick of Nikki Haley and her spinelessness.

She spent her entire primary campaign saying that Trump is unfit to be president, then once she was eliminated, she immediately said she’d vote for him (probably to try and get a cabinet position). Now that it’s clear he hates her and she has no shot at joining his administration, her current position is an illogical word salad that’s a result of her taking both sides and being backed into a corner.

Aggregating some information in this comment based on what I’ve read throughout the internet.

1. Authorities have identified the vehicle of the one in Oregon (and likely Washington) and probably know who’s behind it at this point. AP News
2. Authorities have arrested the person responsible for the ballot fires in Phoenix ABC Phoenix
3. There was a conversation on Truth Social from a user named Elwoodblues50 that suggested doing just this. I have no idea how coordinated it was, but it definitely sounds like something that has been going around right wing circles for a bit. sorry Reddit link
4. These ballot boxes have measures to protect the ballots in the case of fire. One of the ballot boxes had up to 100 ballots destroyed, the others were in the single digits.
5. Oregon and Washington both have websites that allow you to check the status of your ballot. If you know anyone in who may have been impacted by this, have them check the websites and request a new ballot if theirs wasn’t accepted. Oregon. Washington

It looks like those clowns in congress did it again! What a bunch of clowns.

The Cooper Flagg sweepstakes have already begun.

I call the washed one bitey

I understand that it’s not my money, but I’m struggling to understand why all teams don’t go crazy buying insurance.

There’s a hard cap each year ($255 million) and each team shares revenue from tv and merch (~$400 million).

For a 53 man roster, you could pay an extra $75 mil at the most to get several million in extra available cap space the following year. That could mean the difference in being able to upgrade a couple crucial positions and making a run at the Super Bowl.

Once again, it’s not my money, but if you wanted to win at all costs, this would be a pretty effective way to do it.

In a similar punk/pop-punk vein, I saw The Matches are doing a few reunion shows and found myself diving headfirst into their 3 albums again. I’ve always thoroughly enjoyed them.

Bob Newhart, everybody!

This appears to be related to the same Snowflake breach that compromised Ticketmaster. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about more companies impacted by this.
