I’m waiting for the “we’re going to hold you in the country for staying in the country to long and hold you and extra day for every day you continue to be in the country”. At this point I wouldn’t put it past them. The cruelty is the point.
I cut the cord years ago and never bothered to replace it with a OTA cable replacement since I cut the cord because I wasn’t watching the content, so I don’t have C-SPAN.
That being said I do keep up with politics outside of the daily show, and I remember when the Vichy Dems had the house, the senate, and the white house in 2020 and they still failed to make meaningful changes. Sure they passed a few spending bills to fund the economy… sorry I mean support the American people, but they could have put in stop gaps after what they saw from the first trump regime.
So what they do? They followed Schumer’s lead and bent over backwards to try and accommodate the republicans who once they got what they wanted would move the goal post and delay everything even longer.
And yes I’m calling them the Vichy Dems, they have capitulated to fascism. The fact that the January 6th commission was slow rolled, and Merrick Garland wasn’t hauled in for questioning every week until something meaningful was done about the attempted insurrection, means the Dems are just as responsible for the mess we’re in now as the republicans. Dems had the power and Chucky pushed to not use it, and now we’re all paying the price.
I’m sure Chuck Schumer will have a strongly worded letter for this. Wait what am I thinking, Obama is on their side, they’ll completely destroy him for this.
Yep, last paragraph “if elections are allowed”
I do not have high hopes of that happening.
While I hate what’s happening to (gestures broadly) there is a bright side, dark as it may be to look at it this way.
Most of the people currently being targeted tend to vote Republican, so there will be less of those people to vote, and the ones still in the country come election day have a higher chance of not voting or flipping against the Republicans.
Also more and more non-minority maga are saying “I didn’t vote for this” and getting hurt by these policies. If just a small portion of those gets out from under the brainwashing and either doesn’t vote or votes 3rd party instead that could also cost Republicans races.
Margins were tight in a fair amount of races last cycle, house, senate, and president. If elections are allowed and there’s no tampering with votes, the Republicans stand a good chance of losing the house in 26 and the white house in 28. There’s also state governments to look at but I don’t want to write a small novel in the comments.
Got owned by refusing to be “bought”.
We’ve always been at war with Eurasia.
I don’t think he was ever a sworn agent, but more like a trained asset.
Read One Nation Under Blackmail, it makes a good case for his ties to intelligence and organized crime.
Start walking west, when you reach the edge of the horizon, trump will take accountability.
I think they’ve suffered enough.
Thread also works on the 2.4 GHz range but can utilize sub ranges of 868 in Europe and 915 in north America. The 868 and 915 GHz ranges are what LoRa operates on and provides a much greater range for low data rate transmissions.
In fact Meshtastic operates on LoRa on 915 here in the U.S. and I have a node in my second floor window with a 3db antenna and I have been able to message both ways up to 3 blocks away.
Long story short, utilizing 868 and 915 in these devices will make dead spots a thing of the past within a home, even with their lower gain internal antennas.
Apparently the FSB is the opposite of the army since he’s still in power.
Honestly he’s hard to read and he may have been joking, or not, I never bothered to find out since I really had no intention of doing it anyway. I work in international freight and deal with Canadian bound freight exclusively, some of the nicest customers I’ve dealt with were Canadian. CBSA… they deal with bastards all day so they get a pass.
Honestly I own the fact that I’m American and then try to show we’re not all backwards assholes. I figure I’m stuck here for the foreseeable future so I might as well try to do something to let the world know we’re not all nazis.
Yeah my first thought when I read the headline was “why not just use meshtastic?”
Somebody didn’t watch Rules for Rulers, keep your elite happy or they’ll come together and turn on you.
Fingers crossed.
That’s a good way to use the tool. I generally use the OpenAI option to set up a custom gpt and tell it to become an expert on the subject I’m writing about, then set the parameters. Then once I’ve tested it on a piece of the subject matter I already understand and confirm it’s working properly, I begin asking it questions. When I’m out of questions or just need a break, I go back and check the citations for each answer just to make sure I’m not getting bad data.
Once I’ve run out of questions and all the data is verified, I have it create an outline with a brief summary of each section. Then I take that outline and use that to guide me as I write. Also it seems like the A.I. always puts at least one section in the wrong place so that’s just another reason I like to write it myself and just use an A.I. summary outline.
Oh I check the citations. I’m fully aware of A.I. hallucinations.
What these companies didn’t take the time to understand is, A.I. is a tool to make employees more efficient, not to replace them. Sadly the vast majority of these companies will also fail to learn this lesson now and will get rid of A.I. systems altogether rather than use them properly.
When I write a document for my employer I use A.I. as a research and planning assistant, not as the writer. I still put in the work writing the document, I just use A.I. to simplify the tedious data gathering and organizing.
In my late teens and early 20’s I got really into Napoleonic history, I still attribute that quote to Sun Tzu. It just sounds so much like some of the prose from Tzu, I sometimes wonder if Napoleon read it since it translated into French two years after his birth.
