Given how this administration can't cover shit up to save their own asses, and given Trump's very negative perception by the public right now, if there was major evidence of widespread fraud someone would have come forward with it by now. Whether for the fame, the money, the book tours, or the warm fuzzy feeling of watching Trump's lackies go to prison. This was true when swiss-cheese-for-brains made his claims of election fraud in 2020, and it's still true now.

"It is really really sinking in for me the degree to which LLMs are the ultimate expression of right wing anti-intellectualism. Its proponents are literally mocking the idea that anyone would ever want to learn anything, know anything, develop any actual skill, or have a thought of their own."

I figured they did it to tip the balance of the state congress in their favor.

Why not speculative asset if speculative-asset-shaped?

So I guess they weren't planning to implement REX 84, then? /s

Also, rubber bullets being fired at head height are punching holes into store windows. Protesters don't use rubber bullets, but the damage will be blamed on them anyway.

Criminalizing "willful childlessness" and all this bullshit about "promoting childbearing" is just thinly veiled Nazism.

The Southern Baptists are Nazis.

We don't due process anymore.

 

The doge.gov website that was spun up to track Elon Musk’s cuts to the federal government is insecure and pulls from a database that can be edited by anyone, according to two separate people who found the vulnerability and shared it with 404 Media. One coder added at least two database entries that are visible on the live site and say “this is a joke of a .gov site” and “THESE ‘EXPERTS’ LEFT THEIR DATABASE OPEN -roro.”

 

The newly introduced legislation would make it a felony for men to “discharge semen without the intent to fertilize." It's called the "Conception Begins at Erection Act."

 

Hundreds of Ohioans from across the state gathered in near-freezing temperatures to protest at the Ohio Statehouse Wednesday. It was part of a national movement known as “50 states, 50 protests, one day” event, also known as the “50501 movement”, had one main theme - to criticize President Trump’s first days in office.

 

CINCINNATI — Two historic Cincinnati brands are coming together for a new collaboration.

Found Cat (midwest.social)
 

Found a lost cat at the park this week. Hopefully I can find her owners soon. In the meantime, she has certainly made herself at home.

I suspect 1-2 years old but hard to say. Female. Unsure if spayed. No collar or chip. Very sweet and friendly. Planning to get her to the vet for a checkup ASAP. She's a bit skinny so was probably lost for a few days, and definitely has an appetite now.

I hope she wasn't dumped, because some people really don't like black cats, and also leaving cats in the wild is very bad for the environment.

PSA please chip your pets, even if they're indoor pets!

 

When I first learned about passkeys it sounded like nothing more than a vendor lock-in cash grab dressed up as security. This new spec might actually improve the situation and make them useable across more platforms and systems. Assuming Apple, Google, and Microsoft don't find a way to screw it up again.
