  1. When people are lemmings for team politics, the ruling party gets more bought and more corrupt.

     

    https://www-dallasnews-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.dallasnews.com/news/watchdog/2024/03/14/defeated-republican-calls-texas-state-government-the-most-corrupt-ever/?outputType=amp&amp_js_v=0.1&amp_gsa=1#webview=1

    After his stunning defeat in the recent Republican primary, State Rep. Glenn Rogers unloaded on the corruption of Texas government that reaches, he says, to “the highest level.”

    Rogers, 68, wrote that he agrees with the statement by others that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is “a corrupt sophisticated criminal.”

    He continued, “Our current state government is the most corrupt ever and is bought by a few radical billionaires seeking to destroy public education” and also “create a theocracy.”

     

    Q: When you say “corruption at the highest level,” what do you mean?

    Rogers: Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks are the two most powerful men in state politics. And they’ve created a compliant Senate for the most part. And they’re seeking to have a compliant House. The election results go a long way to a compliant House. That should be very alarming to Texans. Having a few billionaires have that much control over state government is not the Texas way or the American way. They finally spent enough money and told enough lies to defeat me.

     

    Q: In your column, you wrote that current activities would make Gov. Pa Ferguson blush. Pa is considered Texas’ worst governor.

    Rogers: It’s not the same corruption that occurred with Pa Ferguson. Now it’s more widespread. This is not targeted at Gov. Abbott. It’s targeted at the level of corruption that exists throughout the Texas state government right now — and with the way leaders, state officials and legislators are manipulated by Dunn and Wilks.

    Q: You wrote that aside from privatizing public schools, the billionaires want to turn America into a theocracy.

    Rogers: Lord knows we need God today with all the problems we have. But we don’t need these radical Christian nationalists’ beliefs that are really dangerous to democracy and religious freedom.

    Q: You wrote that Paxton is a corrupt sophisticated criminal. You voted to impeach him.

    Rogers: That’s a quote from State Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano. The House was acting as a grand jury. There was compelling evidence that this needed to be moved to the Senate for trial.

    Can copilot convert data into chart form or is it only text based answers?

     

     
    Copilot sucks.
     
    show me the correlation between ocean water temperature and the number of category 4 and category 5 hurricanes and typhoons
     
    Copilot

    Certainly! The relationship between ocean water temperature and the intensity of hurricanes and typhoons is well-established. Here’s how it works:

    1. Warmer Ocean Waters Fuel Storms:

    2. Specific Effects:

    3. Record High SSTs:

    In summary, warmer ocean waters play a crucial role in the formation and strengthening of tropical cyclones. As climate change continues to raise ocean temperatures, the impact on storm intensity becomes increasingly significant.

  4. MS Copilot results. Asking about 2023 since it was higher than the previous years.

     

    how many named hurricanes and typhoons were there in 2023?
     
    Copilot

    In 2023, a total of 78 named storms occurred across the globe. This number includes both hurricanes and typhoons. Among these storms:

    Notably, the North Atlantic basin experienced 20 named storms, which was much above the average. Hurricane Idalia made landfall in the Florida Big Bend region as a major hurricane, causing widespread floodingHurricane Lee was the strongest storm in the Atlantic in 2023 and the only Category 5 storm 1.

    In the East Pacific, there were 17 named storms, including 10 hurricanes (8 of which were major hurricanes)Jova became the first Category 5 storm in the East Pacific in 2023 1.

    Additionally, the West Pacific basin had 17 named storms, and the North Indian basin saw 8 named storms 1.

    Overall, the global accumulated cyclone energy (ACE), which integrates the strength, frequency, and duration of tropical storms, was about 8% above the 1991-2020 average 1. The 2023 season was eventful, with several intense storms impacting different regions around the world.

     
     
     
     
     
    You
    how did 2023 hurricanes and typhoon season rank in history?
     
    Copilot

    The 2023 Atlantic hurricane season was characterized by record-warm Atlantic sea surface temperatures and a strong El Niño. Here are some key points about its historical ranking:

    In summary, the 2023 hurricane season was notable for its high storm count and the impact of Hurricane Idalia in the U.S. It was influenced by both warm ocean temperatures and El Niño conditions. Additionally, the Eastern Pacific basin also experienced an active season.

    This. He's been striping his woods and irons for awhile. His problem is that his putting has been spectacularly shittastic. The new putter seems to be the magic solution.

    BRYAN COUNTY, Ga. (WTOC/Gray News) - Two Georgia men are accused of setting off a bomb at a woman’s home and plotting to release a python to eat her daughter.

    Authorities say 34-year-old Caleb Kinsey and 37-year-old Stephen Glosser conspired to harass, intimidate, injure, or kill the woman who owned the house, according to WTOC.

    Glosser and the victim allegedly met on a dating app but their relationship eventually went south, so they decided to block each other. That’s when Kinsey got involved.

    The men allegedly planned to shoot arrows into the victim’s front door, mail her dog feces or dead rats, scalp her head, blow up the home, and release a large python to eat her daughter.

    WTOC reported that Glosser found the victim’s home and built an explosive device along with Kinsey, using Tannerite. Tannerite is a brand of firearm target designed to explode when struck by a bullet. The two then used the device to blow up the woman’s house, police said.

    A witness told investigators they saw a black SUV leaving the scene, which was determined to be Kinsey’s car.

    Police served a search warrant on Kinsey and Glosser’s home and their phones. Authorities then found evidence of explosives and Glosser’s journal.

    The men have been indicted on a slew of charges, including:

    Unlawful possession of an explosive

    First-degree arson

    Stalking

    Use of an explosive to commit another felony offense

    Conspiracy to use an explosive to commit a felony

    Possession of an unregistered destructive device

    Prosecutors said the conspiracy charge carries a penalty of up to 20 years in prison, and using an explosive to commit a felony carries a penalty of 10 years in prison.

    Kinsey also faces additional weapons charges.

    What is that?  Some dude on his Rascal-ish scooter.....in a primary traffic lane.  Is there a sidewalk in that area?  Yes.  Is there even a bike lane?  Also yes.  Does Boomer give a fuck?  NO.  He'll just hold up an entire lane of traffic using his Rascal as if it was a freaking car, except it goes about 5 mph.

    Everyone has lost their fucking minds. It's a race to the bottom for who can be the most selfish dipship. Old, young, black, white, male, female, rich, poor, doesn't matter. The entire world has gone full idiot mode.

    PORT ARANSAS, Texas — In the summer of 2011, Austin businessman Christopher Tiensch told his family he was heading to the Texas coast to relax.

    He never came home.

    Four days later, his body washed up in Port Aransas with a bullet wound. Investigators found blood in his room at a Holiday Inn Express.

    The crime remains unsolved eight years later – one of the biggest mysteries in Port Aransas.

     

    Chris' wife met with investigators and told them about his ongoing legal fight with his employer.

    According to her statement to police, her husband had reported illegal business practices and received death threats. She also described a recent incident where "two people were observed trespassing inside their fenced property near their residence," the report said.
