I mean, that’s simply statistics. The dude votes on 100 bills and isn’t simply following the party line, a few will not be votes for stupidity or hate.

The GOP cares that he isn’t “loyal” and still gets elected and Trump endorsements when he is clearly going to win anyway. That’s about it.

Child soldiers are not Brave New World. More like shit old world.

Y’all gotta read more than the headline.

Rep. Tom Massie has been the key most Libertarian Congressperson that consistently gives strong Ron Paul circa 2009 energy. He’s been a constant headache for Trump because he doesn’t ever like Trump’s policy positions for not being insane enough. The lone No vote against the antisemitism resolution just for show.

He might, but not for the reasons you want.

Tom Massie is a hard-right libertarian, and Trump doesn’t like him because he usually fairly obstructionist to Trump goals. Often because they’re not extreme enough, or not austere enough.

Oh yeah, for sure.

In other news, water found to be wet, puppies cute. More at 11.

I have a 250MB in aluminum container HD from 2005ish. Still works AFAIK.

Might be fun to stress test it, but I expect the discs inside would shatter from shocks before the case ever showed signs of wear.

Do do di-dee-doo-da-doo

It’s ethical because it runs on donations and has a non-profit business model.

Meta likely spends at least $1 billion a year running WhatsApp.

Please donate to Signal if you use it.

Gimme back muh solstice! I’ll worship the dark with whiskey and chocolate and maybe some beef.

Lol, YOUR PC maybe.

A lot of areas that seem like only pedestrian areas in Europe are still roads. Cars regularly drive on tiny streets, especially in Italy and France, nearly clipping people eating dinner.

Then a lot of hollow threats, and standing in a big group shouting “waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!” Thinking something is happening and you’re flashing colors, then flying away shouting “I’ll defeat you later!”

FS?

As in “F’ing Shit”?

OK, who had “The opening from Threads but in 4K” on their bingo card?

Alien Narrator: But they wouldn’t.

It’s not quite what I’m saying, but it’s a starting point. It also isn’t really a thing yet. They’re expected to be available in 2027, so with EV incentives being eliminated, the now $27,500 basic model is already 30%+ more expensive before even appearing IRL.

Until I see an email from haveibeenpwned, I call shenanigans.

Yes and no. There’s a YT video of some guy fixing anything on any car. The catch is that for components for easy things are getting harder and harder to reach. I always used to change my oil myself because it takes 20 minutes and I know the filter got replaced. Harder and harder to do every car I have. So even basic maintenance I can’t do myself anymore.

Modular components could be workable in terms of you pick frame 1, 2, or 3 with batteries. Then you pick wheels/motors packs A, B, or C. Then you pick more and more options. If you own the A and C options, it’s a 45 minute swap out with a system that confirms things are plugged in right. Not every configuration would work together. Toyota uses a lot of interchangeable parts between cars. I mean do this with a whole back end or front end. So like 5 swappable zones that work in maybe 15 possible configurations per frame.

Maybe you want a battle wagon. And want to grow out of that to a pickup. Or start with compact car and expand to a compact SUV.
