Yeah if you look at 2000 in particular Bush “won” by .01%.

If you are familiar with that election that is when Al Gore won the popular vote in the U.S., a recall was called in Florida twice and conspiracies surround how Bush’s own brother was the Governir of Florida.

Basically first count said Bush won by 1784 votes ~.009%. That triggered and automatic recount by the machines. Which came back saying he actually only won by 327 votes, meaning the room for error was wider than the election. His brother helped stall a manual recount, they sent it to the Supreme Court and the U.S. supreme court decided it didn’t matter because hand counting them would take time and awarded all 25 elector votes to Bush, making him President of an election he had not one neither the population, nor possibly the electors… But we’ll never know.

Florida has gone to the right in the last 10 years but before that they always swung back and forth.

Like if you look at who Florida voted for, it was pretty much who won president except the Trump 2020 election.

They were saying Kansas’s was like 1930-1939 or some shit, yet they appear to have actually put one in according to the numbers out so far. Crazy to think 2 World Wars, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq (multiple times), (should mention all the South America shit but the list is getting to long) never considered a change but now something has sparked some kind of change for them

I’m over here wondering how Mississippi is so close

Yeah I mean if you don’t like them, you probably shouldn’t.

I on the other hand don’t mind poached eggs, id just need a lot of toast lol

I imagine if you don’t add butter/cheese and skip over the eating them with bacon or sausage they couldn’t be to bad for you.

Also if the eggs have cholesterol in them, would that not come from you? I don’t know how that chemistry would work out but I’d figure it would be a net loss if it comes out of you, nothing has 100% efficiency.

This is actually do to government policies being put in place in the U.K., Australia and such. In those countries if a user has a child account (under 13 years old) certain safety features are turned on by default now in those countries, and the parent can choose to turn them off. If your account is over 18 years old, has a credit card attached to it, or I think there is a couple other ways it will automatically assume you are over 18 and you don’t have to prove it (otherwise you would have to scan your ID to get your Apple account to have you listed as an adult). In the U.S. you don’t have to prove it, and it is opt in by the users.

So it’s a catch 22, I think it should be opt in every where, but no one is winning a political campaign on saying 12 year olds should be able to send or receive nudes without their parents knowinh about it.

You say that while talking big on Lemmy and not out in the street with a gun right now.

For part 2, they would put a mole in the group, and create a situation where someone acts like they get hurt and shoot a blank or a 22 at a group of police with riot gear on. Then smear them as armed terrorists across all media use facial recognition and security around town to collect plates, track down their locations and arrest them individually.

If enough people do it, it would work still, but hundreds of people would go to jail first.

I imagine most people would turn on the protesters first though. As many companies would not want to be seen as supporting armed terrorists so they would actively fire people who get named or post on social media about supporting them.

I’m also still trying to figure out what’s happening in Poland. There seems to be a good bit of misinformation coming out of it. Like one side is claiming Tusk ordered police to break into the Tribuneral, meanwhile the person leading the Tribuneral said they called the police for defense and they were just outside, I never saw them entering the gates but I don’t know anything about the situation.

I think the real answer is that anyone who cares about the climate already isn’t voting for Republicans. That vote is already secured, so why waste resources saying something that may just piss people off by not calling for extreme enough changes or whatever else. 0% of the people who voted for Trump in 2024 give a fuck about the environment. Those are the people they are trying to convince to not vote for a Republican again, even if it’s just to get them to not vote because they sow doubt about how he’s starting wars/raising costs and whatever else they think Republicans would care about.

I thought it was comical that someone pointed out Alaska is a ranked choice state. So if you have a ballot that says

1. Charlie (R-Incumbent)
2. Charlie (I)
3. George (D)

If 10% don’t know what the R or the incumbent mean… Then they pick both Charlie’s and George last the incumbent isn’t hurt by it… Still is considered to be voted for before George

He openly had communications with dignataries and leaders of other countries about how the U.S. should be changed and tried to enact such while not having permission to do so. It’s hard to not find this illegally immigrated now American guilty of several crimes. If he was worth 32 million he’d be in prison and possibly sentenced to death for treason.

So your telling me someone only has to pay off 1 27 year old to ensure they have a backdoor into most enterprise networks?

It’s stupid, but what would even be the chargeed with.

This is what I think happened last time: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/frank-artiles-ileana-garcia-florida-election-b1820020.html

The other interesting part to me is that most iPhone users have gotten used to using faceid. I know not everyone likes using it but it is the standard use for iPhone users. The Duo doesn’t have face ID, and switches you back to having to use touch ID on a side button like on an iPad. (I assume because they couldn’t figure out a standardized position that would work well when you are rotating/folding/unfolding whatever to that could consistently work well.

They just offered to pay his taxes, they aren’t sick of him or they’d let the company fail

Step one rotate the doll 180 degrees to unlock the orphace. Attempt to remove the release plug found in the back. Now use hand soap and water to clear the debris obstructing and causing the vacuum to occur. Please take an anti inflammatory and if the issue persists after 20 minutes consult a medical professional.

(The person working there has copy/pasted that to 50 people in the last week, haha)

There was an exploit on you could bypass the bootloader essentially and run whatever you wanted at that time. They couldn’t patch it apparently with software so it had to be replaced in hardware.

In theory after 2013 that shouldn’t have been able to happen without decryption keys or brute force like you’re saying

I imagine they are self driving and someone monitors several remotely. If one appears to be stalled or throwing an error code it likely pops an alert, you select the device view the cameras to see what’s gone wrong and place a suggested input of how to resolve the situation. That’s essentially what they did for their self driving cars when they start out, then eventually the alerts become less and less but someone still exists.
