We are so far past that point that we can no longer see the “what if Obama had done this” point in the rear view mirror because it has disappeared well over the horizon.

And it has been a long time since “owning the libs” actually had anything to do with actual libs. At this point it’s just a game of oneupmanship between themselves over who be the most outlandish.

Yes it was. I noticed that when researching my response, but only included the Netscape side. Presumably Sun also wanted to exaggerate how central Java was to the web. It still didn’t make any sense.

Calling it JavaScript to begin with was idiotic. It was basically NetScape trying to ride Sun’s Java’s popularity by borrowing use of their name. I guess at the time Java was a more popular HTTP backend, but that’s about it.

It will still be libuhruls fault somehow. After all, the 2008 Great Recession was Obama’s fault. And probably so was COVID. It doesn’t have to make sense, and indeed it usually doesn’t.

The administration actually went out of its way to avoid being a burden on local services, but he was there and airspace probably had been restricted during his arrival, before the fire erupted out of control.

The Biden administration seems to have gone out of its way to avoid impacting fire fighting efforts. Basically he holed up in his hotel to avoid exactly this issue and to reduce his impact on local services that are normally used during presidential visits.
