    Harris-Walz / Dems

    Is that still how Senators are replaced mid-term? Are special elections only for Representatives?

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Also, remember what the Supreme Court said earlier this year about "official capacity." Whatever it takes to keep that madman out of the White House, Joe. Whatever. It. Takes. I hope I speak for all of us when I say I stand with you and I'm ready to accept the consequences.

    So what you're saying is that they could actually booby-trap the White House and he'd never see it coming.

    And lo and behold, Trump does indeed have a well-beaten path to his door.

    I don't know, is it common to cover bands at paid events without paying royalties up front?

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    From what I understand, it doesn't need to be forked; Chromium is already Chrome minus the closed-source parts, which presumably means the stuff they use to spy on people. Now, whether there's any actual reason to use it over the other nonprofit browsers out there, I couldn't say. I was...

    The Great Console War is Finally Over

    Someone out there has been building new Sinclair ZX something-or-others; it pops up in my retro-computer YouTube feed from time to time and I always ignore it so I don't know the details.

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Reskinned Chrome and Chinese spyware, from what I hear. That's what puts it in the second category.

    The Great Console War is Finally Over

    Atari being the same company they were in 2009 means this is the longest they've ever remained in the same hands. I'm sure Atari has them on their wishlist. They're becoming the Embracer Group of brands that have been effectively dead since the '80s. Wouldn't be surprised if they also end up...

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Wait, which two browsers is she talking about? Because I'd put both Edge and Chrome in the "actively malicious and not remotely reasonable choices when it comes to security" category but they're also the exact opposite of "third parties" depending on what platform you use.

    Looking at all the other public figures who latched on to Trump despite not already being the type you'd expect it from—Scott Adams, Kid Rock, Kanye, the Sinfest guy, arguably Elon Musk—I am seeing a pattern emerge. These were all people whose star was waning or who had already said or done...

    Also, only two decades ago? He didn't even need blackface to look like Michael Jackson at that point ha ha yes I did the obvious joke now we can move on.

    Honestly at this point the number of racists who wore blackface is a more damning indictment of blackface than it is of them.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    It's not Trump's refusal to admit defeat that's the issue; it's what he was willing to do in the name of holding on to power. We don't actually have to worry about a repeat of January 6 because he will never again be in a position to lose an election as an incumbent. We do, however, have to...

    The Great Console War is Finally Over

    The original Atari was dead as soon as Nolan sold it to Warner Bros. The thing about copyrights is that they don't just automatically expire if you stop using them, so the best you can really hope for in these situations is that whoever bought them up either cares about the IPs or is amenable...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    So they put a law in place that forces everyone to provide proof of identity, and then a huge number of them just didn't bother to do that? Not surprising, honestly. Anyone else remember the /pol/ thread with the people bitching about getting turned away on Election Day because they hadn't even...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Sadly, given how few explicit responsibilities vice presidents have, making their opponent look like a jerk in front of millions of voters might be the most important thing a vice presidential candidate ever does.

    Yeah, I think the one thing Walz dropped the ball on was not calling him on that, or the idea that illegal immigrants with no money are the ones buying up all the $200,000 houses.
