Personally, I think DeSantis is doomed on the national stage.

Not to mention, Trump isn't just going to go away unless he dies.

DeSantis has a proven record of enacting laws and policies targeting minorities, LGBTQ people, and anyone else the GOP views as their enemy.

Hard to justify being the "Free State of Florida" when he constantly uses the state government to harm businesses or institutions that dare criticize him.

Plus, he has a weird, nasally, whiny voice, like some nerd that needs to be stuffed in a locker.

I think the only reason it works for him in Florida is because FL is a uniquely awful place full of awful boomer transplants.



After Trump won the primary and then the general in 2016, assuming someone is unelectable because of their beliefs/policies/actions should have gone out the window.

Especially if Biden runs again.

You don't need to rile up the base so hard you overwhelm everyone; you just have to depress the opposition so they don't show up.

I think Biden is going to have an awful time wining re-election. The GOP hates him. The chuds hate him. To the centrist he is an old dude who hasn't fixed the deficit or some milquetoast position. And to the left he's an example of the useless lanyard class of politicians slowly strangling us under the crushing weight of unrestrained capitalism.

Nobody likes Biden for Biden, they like him because he's Not Trump

Depending on how much """""""inflation""""""" continues to worsen in the coming months/year it might get much, much worse.

I liked the AI Seinfeld thing because it was generally inoffensive (heh) and made nice background noise. It was funny in the same way that Markov chain bots were funny decades ago, because sometimes it spits out things that clearly aren't correct, but sometimes take you a few moments to notice. Or the AI version of reading the cue cards aloud. "Quietly walks off stage to cheers. Crowd applauds."

That said, let me find my surprised face that the AI finally shat out something bad :geno:

the fact twitter did not collapse and has not collapsed yet is a testament to how well they did their jobs

the real question isn't if but when, and i imagine most of us lost pretty early on that one thinking it would die fast rather than slowly teeter ever closer to a slow, painful collapse

very excited to see how the continued slow decline of twitter and musk's popularity gets to him, though. :allears:

Train derails in Van Buren Township

Train derailment in Michigan
By: WXYZ StaffPosted at 11:04 AM, Feb 16, 2023 and last updated 10:15 AM, Feb 16, 2023
DETROIT, Mich. — A train carrying hazardous materials derailed in Michigan Thursday morning.

At least six cars were off the tracks in Van Buren Township, which is about 30 miles southwest of Detroit.

Officials say only one of the train cars was carrying hazardous materials, and it's reportedly showing no sign of leaking or damage.


The local fire department says the derailment does not currently pose a danger to the public.

This is just the latest train derailment to fuel anxiety across the country. People in East Palestine, Ohio, say animals are dying and people are getting sick after a train derailment led to a chemical spill.

The chief of the Environmental Protection Agency is scheduled to visit with residents of East Palestine on Thursday to address their concerns.

On Feb. 10 the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency released information on water quality sampling for surface water and said it showed "very low levels of two contaminants, butyl acylate and ethyl hexyl acrylate" in an area called Leslie Run, and said it would dissipate quickly.

Portions of this story were originally reported on wxyz.com.

local news, but cool how this keeps happening

quote:

School police recovered four firearms Tuesday at three different Clark County schools leading to multiple arrests.

Two firearms were recovered at Eldorado High School from two students at around 8 a.m., according to Clark County School District Police Department Lt. Bryan Zink.

Another firearm was recovered at Mojave High School later Tuesday morning, Zink said, after a family member reported that a firearm had been stolen from their home.

At Edmundo “Eddie” Escobedo Sr. Middle School, staff turned over a firearm to school police. Zink said in all four instances, an arrest was made on suspicion of a minor being in possession of a firearm, carrying a concealed weapon, and possession of a dangerous weapon on school property.

can't wait for my hometown to be another news article when someone slips through.

So what I'm getting is that my bank account is far less secure than AT&T internet.

Banks in general tend to be woefully insecure online; stories abound of websites that have password requirements with fun features such as

- 8 to 16 characters (yes, upper bound)
- no funny symbols like !, @, and especially %
- helpful "security questions" based on easily looked up things

on the other hand, you end up with websites like my local utility, southwest gas, where they decided that pasting into the password form is not allowed. every time i try to log in i have to open chrome's dev tools to fix it so i can paste in from my password manager. :suicide:



the worst thing is that AI/ML poo poo is everywhere and increasingly being used in places it really, really should not be, as an alternative to just paying people.
