In consistent authoritarian fashion, now that Bovino has caused a PR problem for them, under the bus he goes and all blame goes to him.

I’m confident he was doing exactly what was expected of him. Don’t fall for the fall guy playbook.

Seems pretty clear to me that my country is no longer a beacon of freedom or justice. 2nd amendment resolutions are starting to look necessary.

We will know in November… Or earlier if elections are canceled as I expect.

I was not commenting on her,or on kirk, though I have my opinions. I was bringing attention to the gender bias that by default, women are assumed to be “good” in the face of evidence to the contrary. Worse she’s not accountable for the behavior because a man might have been abusing her.

She might have very good reasons and intentions. She might be putting up a brave and strong show to shift focus on a cause she truly embraces.

The point is we don’t know, but we have a demeanor that implies something might be askance and the comment didn’t address the behavior. It fell on favorable assumptions about the gender that (I feel) would not have been applicable to a man in the same scenario. Basically, a subtle logical fallacy that warps judgment subtly.

I believe you. Now, in re-reading it, can you see any implicit bias in the statement? That is what i was being sarcastic about.

It was not an attack on you, though it’s easy to read that into text without any physical cues. It’s an unfortunate side effect of the media.

… Because women are pure and would never ever be selfish or duplicitous. Unlike all men. amiright?

I noticed something in the last 15 years of these polls. For right wing reactionary actions, the approval rating never goes below 30%.

What we are seeing is the cult faithful. Used to be the Tea Party, is now rebranded MAGA.

You will not see the numbers decrease until they die off from age, diet, disease, or “hold my beer”. The danger is the indoctrination of youth.

Yes, just like Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome. Also brain fog from various illnesses. All took undeniable evidence to be acknowledged.

Well, gotta pay for the help with oil, right? /s

… and for Gnome based distros, Valent is a good adaptation of KDE Connect. For a long time, the SFTP file sharing feature wasn’t working, but someone finally updated the security protocols and you can access your phone as if it were connected via USB with MTP, but over the network.

There are still lots of flaws, like limited features on notification handling, messaging (I can’t do anything like respond or initiate messages for Google Voice).

You forgot, “Copilot is mother, Copilot is father”. I suppose it’s an obscure reference now.

I’m 57. It ain’t just young americans (cue Bowie song)

With added sexual excitement to keep things interesting?

Yes, this is a case of the stupid causing horrific collateral damage

It needs to update hosts filter lists, which is a root level operation.

That said, my pixel 2xl no longer has root (via magisk) but it still has AdAway. Since it was installed with root privs, it still has them. I will eventually patch the boot partition. I just haven’t gotten around to it, and LineageOS for microg updates multiple times per month.

I delt with this problem a few years ago, and found at the time there were no options. I suspect that has not changed. One core reason I root my phone is to install adaway. This blocks trackers and many other problem URLs at the DNS level, freeing the vpn for it’s core purpose.

Well, it looks like “the Great Reset” wasn’t just a right-wing conspiracy theory against the left. Looks like it was accurate, except it was the right wing who was going to do it.
