  1. My PC just updated to W11 24H2 and MICROSOFT FUCKING TOOK AWAY WORDPAD!!! WHAT THE FUCK!
  2. It's going to be a total shitshow. Fiscally, logistically, and in terms of actual productivity and quality of work. But that's what they want, so, mission accomplished I guess. How much you want to bet some "teacher's pet" agencies like the AG's office will get an exemption from this mandate?
  3. Solid game all round, outcome never in doubt.
  4. I guess it's too late to make a bingo card. But take a drink if any of the following happens: A) On a predetermined signal from Trunp, troops move in and arrest all Democrats B) Trump blames the Russian invasion on Ukraine C) US withdrawing from NATO, joining security alliance with Russia D) Russian peacekeepers will be used to monitor the next election E) Trunp shits/pisses himself F) Some Democrat(s) boo or hiss or walk out, and it's all we'll hear about ever G) We've traded all the Fort Knox gold to Elon Musk in exchange for bitcoin of equivalent value
  5. BTW winds in ATX tomorrow are s'posed to be gusting to 40. Probably a good day for an outdoor BBQ or to get a head start on burning your trash & brush.
  6. I mean, it seems like a pretty safe investment. What are the odds of there being another big fire there anytime soon?
  7. I sent a letter about Musk & DOGE (electronically, didn't want to waste a stamp) to Cornyn and Cruz today. Won't do fuckall good, in fact will probably get me doxxed, but I just had to say something about this shit.
  8. Does UT still have certain vaccination requirements for incoming freshmen? Wonder how long that lasts...
  9. What does Russia have on Trump? It can't just be that Trump ❤️ Putin, there has to be more. The President of the United States is a Russian asset.
  10. https://www.kxan.com/border-report/feds-pause-contract-providing-legal-services-to-thousands-of-unaccompanied-migrant-children/ These kids better take an LSAT study course
  11. It's great that the free world was plunged into 500 years of darkness, as long as we guard the purity of amateur sports for girls.
  12. If I start flying my US flag upside down, will I get sent to Gitmo? I'm actually more concerned about vandalism or violence from local goons.
  13. Maybe it's just me but recently I've had issues at multiple businesses (typically convenience stores or fast food) where I'll make a minor purchase and the person checking me out will throw away my receipt without even asking me if I want it. Is this a thing now?
  14. As another poster noted above, the landing gear looks a little bit "stubby" as if it might not be fully extended. But I have no idea what is "normal" for a CRJ like that. I also don't see much of a flap angle, but the video isn't very sharp. In crosswind conditions it may be normal to use a reduced flap setting.
  15. Yeah that's too hard even for Ryanair.
  16. They'll probably build Trump-branded hotels and casinos in them. And/or drill baby drill.
  17. There's nothing wrong with a gentleman of a certain age carrying a little extra weight. It's a physical manifestation of success and dominance.
  18. Don't be such a downer! We just need to upgrade one or two spots on the OL. After that upgrade in protection, Dak will put up numbers that will make you forget all about the feebles and the commies. Plus it will fix the running game.
  19. I mean it's pretty much OK now to shovel money and gifts at American politicians and judges, so why should foreigners miss out on that gravy train. Trump is such a crook, he makes Nixon look like goddamn George Washington.
  20. Why do games in the Superdome look so ugly? The field looks brownish and the colors in general look all wrong. It looks like they use sodium vapor lamps or something similar that doesn't have full-spectrum white light.
  21. I'd also look at the undervote (meaning ballots that were filed but no vote for president was recorded). I'd like to know if there were a lot of ballots in certain areas that for some reason appear to not register a vote for President. Of course that can happen when both parties have unpopular nominees, but if it's more than 1-2% then something is up.
  22. Yuge surpise. Trump selling out our elections to Russia & China. Trump’s Justice Department shutters specialized FBI team combatting foreign election interference threats The shuttering of the FBI Foreign Influence Task Force and planned reassigning of team members follows a directive from incoming US Attorney General Pam Bondi dissolving the team. https://electionlawblog.org/?p=148505
  23. This climate is inspiring shitheads and wannabes to take the law into their own hands: https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/us/ice-impersonators-on-the-rise-arrests-made-as-authorities-issue-national-warning/index.html Pardons incoming in 3, 2, 1 ...
  24. Those were oxygen generators, which (AFAIK) don't contain gaseous oxygen like a cylinder, but they generate O2 through a chemical reaction when activated.
  25. When mass layoffs happen in business, there is usually** (OK, sometimes) a plausible business case as to why it's necessary, or how it will improve the organization. And, usually**, there is a rational basis in the methodology of selecting who is retained and who is terminated. No good business would just arbitrarily cut XY% of the workforce for the hell of it. Does anyone really believe these federal RIFs are going to improve the effectiveness of the government, at least towards the goals these agencies are intended to perform? This is a naked attempt to degrade institutions that serve and protect the public, and redirect those institutions to instead protect corporations, oligarchs, and other large political donors.
