“Winning the battle is worth losing the war”
(Trump, The Art of the Deal, pp. 179-181)
This is kinda the plot of a Black Mirror episode, Striking Vipers.
I guess I never thought about this but are the alec baldwin and harrison ford Jack Ryans the same person? Ben Affleck was assume is a reboot, but now I don’t really know.
The issue isn’t really people on the fence for Trump or Harris but mainly with generating turnout. After Biden’s poor debate performance, people didn’t change their mind and decide to vote for Trump, they became apathetic and maybe wouldn’t show up to vote.
Harris doesn’t need to persuade people to abandon Trump, she needs to get people excited to show up to vote.
One of Vance’s former friends detailed the downfall of their friendship as Vance rose in politics. Despite their differences they were still friendly until 2021. Full article : https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/27/us/politics/jd-vance-friend-transgender.html
During their last text exchange that was outlined in the article, they had this to say:
“I know I can’t change your mind but the political voice you have become seems so far from the man I got to know in law school,” wrote Nelson, later explaining their position “as a trans person who accessed needed health care so I could live a full life.”
It does seem like Vance did 180 from someone equating Trump to Hitler to Trump’s running mate in just a few years.
The TSA press office said in a statement that this vulnerability could not be used to access a KCM checkpoint because the TSA initiates a vetting process before issuing a KCM barcode to a new member. However, a KCM barcode is not required to use KCM checkpoints, as the TSO can enter an airline employee ID manually. After we informed the TSA of this, they deleted the section of their website that mentions manually entering an employee ID, and did not respond to our correction. We have confirmed that the interface used by TSOs still allows manual input of employee IDs.
TSA: lalala i can’t hear you, everything is fine, no issue here
Yeah, clearly the author doesn’t know about the Loch Ness monster
Trump’s going to abandon RFK Jr. when he’s no longer useful, just like RFK Jr. did with the dead bear cub in Central Park.
Also reminder: If Republicans are accusing someone of something, it’s because they’re already doing that something.
It seems like the same author has the same story posted on other Gray stations as well. This is just my assumption but considering the KCBD article says “Copyright 2024 Gray Local Media, Inc. All rights reserved.” it looks like they are just regurgitating other news stories and presenting it as their own on all the Gray affiliates.
In this case, WGN-TV is owned by Nexstar and KCBD is owned by Gray. Probably the case that KCBD has little budget for reporters, so they repackage other stations news (and add their copyright at the bottom) to drive traffic to their site.
I see, so the fishy part is that the vote counts basically correspond exactly to the nearest 0.1% for the top two candidates, whereas that’s unlikely. And the odds of that happening for both candidates is a 1 in roughly (10,000^2)?
EDIT: rereading the article, I see the probability calculations at the bottom.
I might need an EIL5 for this. Is the fishy part that when you expand the vote percentages to 7 decimal places, both candidates are .19999
and then that gets rounded up to .2
?
They’ve said that they release the source code after it’s running in production:
sorry the source for one of our services was so far behind. We often don’t push source until we release things, and there were a few overlapping releases that happened in that period which made it awkward to push at any moment and put us behind. Additionally, we’ve seen a large increase in spam, and a reluctance to immediately publish the exact anti-spam measures we were responding with to a place where spammers could immediately see them combined with the above to cause this extreme delay.

same can be said about Hitler
please tell me you created a dick
object for the project which is exactly the same as a dict
object.
Totally agree. He is only looking out for himself, and if you’re someone like him, you might get some benefit as well. He’s not going out of his way to help anyone who can’t help him in someway. And even if you can help in some way, the nanosecond he doesn’t need you anymore, he’ll abandon you.
When has that ever worked out for anyone? Trump will fuck over anyone and everyone, he doesn’t care about you unless you have something he needs from you.
“We believe there is value in hearing from Presidential nominees directly, when possible. Trump is now the official Republican nominee for US President.”
AKA: it’s more profitable for us to let him stream his hatred on our platform again.
