@kylekulinskishow.bsky.social You have to watch the end of Philip Defranco's video from today... He totally cooked the CEO of KIND, calling him out for both-sidesing and false equivalency...

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com I've been watching the confusion between yourself and Jen Psaki about ranked-choice voting. The simplest real-world example was the process of the 2020 Iowa caucuses where folks from the smallest pools of voters get shuffled to the highest remaining candidate preference.

I don't know that this is or isn't true, but simply the fact that the story exists should tell us all that ALL code powering our election infrastructure should be open source.

We already have that, and his name is Bernie Sanders, and he is rightfully working with her as at least an equal partner...

Scream away; the lack of confidence in women is astonishing; she could do and is doing it without any man giving her permission if and when needed.
I saw some guy online comment today that "we need a male AOC" and I had to shut my laptop and go for a nice, long walk in order to avoid screaming.

For anyone who is in the market for a new 3D printer, I would avoid BambuLabs if you value flexibility to use alternative tools and options.

So it begins... @bambulabglobal.bsky.social's latest X1C firmware no longer works with OrcaSlicer. See: github.com/bambulab/Bam...

Best solution for current X1C owners: don't upgrade your firmware.
Please remove anti-debugging code in BBL network plugin · Issue #6726 · bambulab/BambuStudio
Since 1.10.2 the BBL network plugin ships with debugger detecting code that will terminate the application when a debugger is attached. This makes it impossible to run the slicer from Visual Studio...

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

For someone as eloquent as Pete to use "fuckup" should signal to anyone how bad this is, no pun intended.

This is a very nuanced and honest take on the who "trans kids in sports" situation. Please take the time to read it...
"Before you say anything about trans kids, imagine a specific trans kid in a specific family and ask yourself two questions: (1) Do you think that kid’s parents want to hurt him or her? (2) Do you know that kid better than his or her parents do?"
Leave Trans People Alone: A Rant
“Trans sports” isn’t an actual problem in the real world. The problem is that life is hard. Don’t make it harder.

Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.
