More stochastic terrorism from Team Trump. They are whipping their troglodyte followers into a frenzy in the hopes that enough of them will use the threat of domestic violence to prevent their female partners from going to the polls. It wouldn’t be crazy to bet that at least one woman will die from this. It’s fucking despicable.

After the mass deportations, all of the most fervent deportation enthusiasts should be required to work in the fields to compensate for the depleted agricultural sector.

Just like Jesus would have done.

That franchisee is about to lose it all. McD Corporate isn't going to like their brand being associated with politics in either direction. This type of stunt is likely prohibited by his franchise agreement. Of course the franchisee, being a Trumper, will whine about how he’s being persecuted for his beliefs.

His brain is so fried that he doesn’t even realize that this ship has sailed long ago.

Combine that with 40 years of Republicans slashing education funding and you’re on to something.

the team will 25th his ass

That’s what they should do in that situation, but in reality, there’s no chance. The bar is too high.

From the 25th Amendment:

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Trump would have a cabinet full of true believers and yes-men. There’s no way that more than half would be on board to jettison him. The Congressional cure is also a non-starter. If Trump were to win, there would probably also be a Republican-controlled Congress, and we all know that Congressional Republicans have zero spine when it comes to standing up to daddy.

Watching that video, Stone is either in the midst of a mental health crisis or has had a generous helping of Bolivian marching powder. Either way, what a weirdo.

There shouldn’t be billionaires, let alone billionaire preachers.

And sadly, it’s perfectly legal according to the 13th Amendment.

It’s not an apples to apples comparison. The fact is that many Amazon employees can make 25-50% more, with better work-life balance, better benefits, a less toxic environment, and the ability to work from home.

This Topton-brand mini-ITX motherboard on AliExpress seems like a pretty decent choice for an Opnsense/Pfsense-based home router setup. It has four Intel 2.5gbe ports, an integrated 10W TDP CPU, and way more storage options than necessary for my use case.

However, I’m leery of just about everything from AliExpress. In this case, I assume security is probably a distant consideration after function and price point.

Am I being overly paranoid? Are products like this riddled with back doors and other exploitable components? Has anyone else out there built a router using this board?
