Doesn't this just bond neutral to ground? It's definitely illegal and will kill you if some other device has a short and makes ground hot, but at least it's not a suicide cord

So this is just binary red/blue? Seems iffy given how diverse states are (eg there are about as many Republican voters in "blue" California or in "red" Florida because California is way larger). I wonder what this would look like at the county level...

Safeway gives them so few hours, will we really notice? I've gone to the Rockridge Safeway at times and been certain there were no staff there at all (self checkout only, meat desk closed, pastry area closed, nobody stocking shelves)...

no, I'm sure the majority is in poorly paid roles: janitors, food prep, entry level techs

The average Windows user might not care, but the average Windows license buyer is probably a corporate IT department, which tend to care about compliance quite a bit...

Nobody in that coalition wants to think about their shit real life pulling in social security and living in a ticky tacky detached shitbox off a stroad in a suburb; they all envision themselves as temporarily inconvenienced mega millionaires whose biggest problem would be the capital gains tax rate if only those dang immigrants, brown people, women, and purple-haired hippies would stop repressing them. It's e the American way!

Cory Booker's response speech is pretty incredible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4_H_KNAakE

Apparently the House is now considering a motion to censure... Padilla... Fucking Mike Johnson

DS9 "In the Pale Moonlight"

So I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it.

Brooks' delivery makes you able to buy the subversion of every moral espoused in 40 years of Star Trek. I don't know if it would land as well if you weren't already steeped in the show, but it's incredible to watch the first time if you are.

Cloudflare actually does have a way to avoid seeing these, using a zero-knowledge proof backed by a hardware security module (they call it Cloudflare Private Access Tokens). As far as I know, Apple is still the only one who's implemented it and it only works in Safari on iPhones, iPads, and M-series Macs. Maybe some day other vendors will add support too!

Of course, there are already scrapers that use arrays of real phones to do scraping/app automation, so widespread adoption of PATs would just push more traffic to be proxied through physical devices instead of headless browsers in AWS somewhere...

The Cheesecake Factory is somehow a nationwide tourist trap — go somewhere exciting and then eat at the same overpriced trash faux-destination restaurant you could've eaten at back home.

Maybe Kobo will finally make an API for loading articles so we can send them from Instapaper/Raindrop/Pinboard/etc...
