“Save” consumers billions of dollars we would otherwise not pay if the mad king would simply stop throwing tariff tantrums. This sentence is absolutely diabolical.

*AIPAC give candidate millions of dollars* candidate 1: anyone notice how AIPAC gave candidate 2 millions of dollars? candidate 2: you’re being rly antisemitic rn

if you're not trans then i really don't know if you can comprehend how much of a *disappointment* literally all of society has proven to be for us just time and again proving that the rest of you will always choose to abdicate your morals over sitting with discomfort for one goddamn second

most tech outlets spent the week burying the lede that this was a completely avoidable error (or intentional marketing decision) by a human being, and not a malevolent self aware cyber consciousness that slipped its leash

OpenAI’s Hacking Debacle Comes Down to Human ErrorIf the generative AI giant had followed well-known security best practices, it’s likely that its AI agent would never have escaped to the open internet and hacked multiple companies.www.wired.com

support subject to withdrawal in the event one gets dunked on hard and often enough isn't support; it's a Good Person performance that uses other people as props

i saw someone (in defense of the game show guy who volunteered to be today's main character) suggest that marginalized people should be nicer to their allies if they expect to keep their support it's not the first time i've seen this argument made, and it is, of course, absolute horseshit

Tina Peters, as kooky as she is, knows all this full well. She was an election official before she embarked on her life of crime. She knows there is no practical way to make major changes to election equipment or procedures 3 months before a general election. This is theatre.

- CISA has no authority to force sates to do anything about election operations and neither, for that matter, does the rest of the executive branch. This is why Trump's elections executive orders keep being stopped in court or ignored.

A few notes: - Meeting with CISA is not a high bar and doesn't indicate much. - Getting rid of BMDs is a good idea, but no equipment is going to change before the midterms. It's almost August. - Full hand counts is simply not practical in most US jurisdiction, but RLAs provide similar assurance.

“Even with Mr. Cornyn’s requested changes, the audit protection for Mr. Trump would still be an unprecedented gift to a sitting president, effectively exempting him from the legal requirement for all Americans to comply with the nation’s tax laws — or face I.R.S. scrutiny.”

Not a Kavanaugh stop. TSA is sharing manifests with ICE, which then identifies people who overstayed visas and arrests them when they arrive for their flight. In many cases, seemingly here, these are people who came legally, applied to stay, and timed out of their status while waiting in line.

Wow! ICE’s airport arrests of people seemingly waiting in government immigration backlogs caught up a Fulbright scholar and public health researcher working at Johns Hopkins in their public health department. Not exactly the “worst of the worst”! Yet they threw her in detention anyway.

this week I learned that the singularity is when a human being fails to air gap hacking software (either accidentally due to incompetence or intentionally for marketing and media exploitation purposes)

“I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!”
