Was this during the doge days? If they already hacked the government, why were they let in again?

brothers were federal contractors working for an undisclosed company in Washington, DC

This may be the real reason r’s are losing all of the elections, lol. They are entirely red states.

You had me and then you lost me.

My best advice is that if it seems inactive, that means you should subscribe to a bunch of stuff and switch to hot, top 6 hour and scaled. Active is the default and seems the least active.

The comments in this thread will give you a great idea on how most people act around here. Hate the idea and not the user and you should be fine.

Your “also plz be kind :D” comment tells me that you’re going to go through a bit of withdrawal on the hate and drama. It’s great here even even though we have a few trolls and bots.

It says it will finish the code, it doesn’t say the code will work.

Yeah, I think you’re off-putting to other people. I get that you’ve tried stuff, but were you letting others talk? Were you obviously rolling your eyes at people? Were you shutting people down instead of keeping an open mind?

People are being nice here, but I think you need it spelled out. I’ll do it in order of importance at the top.

• Don’t be a dick
• Ask questions

• Don’t judge other people

While the law allows state regulation of computation in the interest of public health and safety, it sets a high bar: any restrictions must be demonstrably necessary and narrowly tailored to serve a compelling interest. Legal experts note that this is one of the most protective standards available under Montana law.

The act also includes provisions for AI-controlled critical infrastructure, requiring both a “shutdown mechanism” to allow human control and annual safety reviews — a move aimed at balancing innovation with public safety concerns.

I know this is my own personal experience, but diehard Apple fans in my circle have started to say, “Fuck Apple.” I think they’re PR and goodwill is finally running out.

I personally prefer them. They’re not perfect, but it’s better than having a facebook kind of experience.

There are a shit ton of serial downvoters, and as a mod, this helps you find them. Not as much on the larger instances, but the small ones. If you just post something and there are 30 users, and there are 8 downvotes, it’s pretty obvious what they’re doing.

I think that it’s a possibility for the rest of the world.

That is not the tldr, lol.

I’ve noticed that they’re adjusting this way of doing things. It’s not just anger anymore, they’re using boredom. They’ll go into long diatribes that have a hint of a point, but they’re so long that people give up. This gets people to either be bored and leave or get distracted into a mental vacation. It also can bury the things they want buried.

lol, people really do care about the fonts.

When you strip away real people caring, this is what it looks like when you’re left with just the bots. They chose bi-partisan for this, because they always choose bi-partisan. Someone screaming alone isn’t worth much.

Because this place isn’t censored for their side, they’re trying to break it.

His numbers are maybe good, don’t know since I haven’t really kept up with him. His opinions are definitely shit.

Nate Silver has been shitty for a long time though too. I used to get his newsletters and you could watch the digression.

Edit: *David Smith, son of the founder and currently CEO of Sinclair, has a hilarious entry-

In an August 1996 prostitution sting, Smith was charged with committing an “unnatural and perverted sex act” (oral sex) in a Sinclair company vehicle. He was sentenced to community service, which was fulfilled by having Sinclair station WBFF produce reports on a local drug counseling program.[14][15]

Aaaaand not so funny-

Prior to Ajit Pai’s appointment under the first Donald Trump presidential administration as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Smith met with Pai to discuss deregulation of the FCC’s media ownership rules. This meeting, plus Sinclair having been granted additional access to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, resulted in accusations that Sinclair was currying favor with the Trump administration in exchange for deregulation of the industry.[16][17][18] Smith met with Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election year, in which he told Trump, “We are here to deliver your message.”[3]
