You're letting perfect be the enemy of good - you can push for changes while still operating in a society.

That explains the obsession with cows' milk...

Anytime someone throws a fit about noncows milk being called milk, "Like, you know why they produce milk, right?"

Pretty sure no forks are effected, the ToS only impacts Firefox the browser not Firefox the codebase.

So the brilliant idea to lower unemployment by firing a fuckton of federal employees didn't work you say?

All the best parts of HP became Agilent — it's more like HP the Subscription Printers company now

I'll say it again, The Onion really is killing it. News from a parallel reality.

I'd be very cautious around taglines like "from one of the creators..."

Star Wars Galaxies was developed by a lot of people, and all you need to do is look at Turtle Rock, Left 4 Dead, and Back 4 Blood to see how little those taglines matter.

One can only hope that fucking with 1500 FBI employees includes that one with a fuckton of dirt.

Project 2025 Tracker (www.project2025.observer)
 

A tracker to see the "progress" Project 2025 is making.

 

Sending 20% of the roughly $8.6 billion of DOGE savings the group has so far listed on its website would amount to about $11 per taxpayer.

 

Amanda Frost is a Law Professor at the University of Virginia Law. She says a constitutional crisis occurs when one branch of government, usually the executive, "blatantly, flagrantly and regularly exceeds its constitutional authority — and the other branches are either unable or unwilling to stop it."

Frost says the first half of her definition is already happening, and that it's clear President Trump has gone beyond the powers of the executive branch. She points to him trying to usurp Congress' "power of the purse" or trying to put an end to birthright citizenship as examples.

Considering their willingness to ignore or deliberately misinterpret court orders, I'd argue we've met the second part of the definition...

 
 
 

President Donald Trump on Friday said he plans to take executive action to overhaul — or possibly end — the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, slamming the agency for its response to historic floods in North Carolina.

 

So it's very, very cold out. Very unseasonable.

 

Curious to see what they do with the "mouse" function, as well as how well the new Joycon attachment system works (as well as if they have Hall Effect sensors...)

 

Very nice to see a Pico format board with USB-C (and 5Ghz)

 

This is not the first time Trump has been accused of politicizing the military for his personal gain. He’s allegedly called dead soldiers “suckers and losers,” insulted the late John McCain for being a prisoner of war and recently stoked controversy for saying civilian Medal of Freedom recipients are much better than those who received the Medal of Honor — the highest military award in the country, often given posthumously.

 

The move followed a decision last year that the Biden administration had overstepped its authority by trying to forgive more than $400 billion in student loans.

 

Trump was questioned immediately on his rhetoric about race during a tense appearance at a Black journalists’ conference, where the audience at times gasped and scoffed at his remarks.
