If you can’t have your way, let the world burn… Gotcha.

That is literally the rationale for lots of people. I've heard it spoken verbatim, and heck, when I was young and stupid, I said it myself. It'll hasten the collapse and move us more quickly toward a glorious new future!

Exactly. So the issue of genocide in Gaza is effectively moot in the 2024 election. Both sides are pro-genocide, so decide your vote on other issues. Trump, of course, is better on exactly none of the issues.

Also (sorry, but old guy here) the nozzle sometimes unexpectedly sprays sideways. It's no worry if you're sitting down, but if you're standing up you might've just wet your pants... or the pants of the unlucky schmoe at the neighboring urinal.

Sorry and it's nothing personal, @silence7, but after years of Trump and tens of thousands of his lies, the answer seems so obvious it's not worth a click. He lies because he lies because he lies.

It's a sadness, but I also have occasional issues with Firefox. It's still the best browser by far, but its share is so small, more and more developers aren't testing their pages in Firefox any more.

Doesn't make no never mind to me. If a page doesn't work in Firefox, I can do without.

Always good to see a crook toppling, and Adams has smelled crooked since he was a cop. Probably before he was a cop.

This article is perhaps the most idiotic pro-AI propaganda yet published on a mainstream news site, but I gotta emphasize 'yet'.

And it is, of course — but he's saying it's corrupt to prosecute Donald Trump.

Sweet Jeebers, these people don't give a shadow of a fart about America.

 

Being old, death gets my attention, so I read the obituaries. This is a collection of recent obits, mostly of people whose work touched my life, because I want to say thanks (or maybe give 'em a final fuck you).

There’ll be a roundup like this occasionally, until I’m on the list myself.
