The petition was ostentatiously for “free speech and the right to bear arms” created by elon musk. If you signed this petition (which collects a lot of data for the republican party) and also registered to vote you could enter a lottery to win a million bucks. If said lottery was purely chance then that’s against election laws. Elon thus argues that he rigged it intentionally, to quote the article they were " not chosen at random but based on their “suitability” to serve as PAC spokespeople." This latest lawsuit is from petition signing who thought they were entering a true lottery and were thus (allegedly) fraudulently mislead.

Signing the original petition definitely helped trump and the republican party.

Yeah that thread did seem fishy thanks ill give em a shot!

couple things:

• generally the rules prevent torrents from becoming incomplete
• usually theres a request system, which can be very useful for old or obscure stuff.
• usually much faster for all but the most popular stuff
• way more timely and consistent. Less problems where it takes a few days after a release for it to show up or for a series to stop being uploaded half way through a season.
• less chance of honeypots or other malicious behaviour (you should still use a VPN though obviously)
• more consistent quality and naming enforcement (which means it usually works better with *arr)

I can’t vouch for this particular tracker but in general (free) private trackers are very nice.

I looked up some reviews for the tracker and reddit was shitting all over it, claiming it’s pretty pay to use and the admins are tyrants. Can anyone share their experience?

1. No self posts.

I strongly think this rule should change, it is important we are able to humanize each other, make our own arguments. Self posts are important way to do that. I think some guidelines to keep it constructive and high effort is warranted but an outright ban I’m against.

2. No meme/image/shitposting.

I’m fine with this, but maybe a weekly mega thread to blow off steam in would be healthy?

No calls for violence. Full stop.

I understand the legal obligations here. I’ll also point out the president elect is openly calling for widespread violence. If some can say “cops should shoot/arrest/deport <xyz>” that is a call for violence.

Mods, You have a hard, thankless job, so thank you.

ABC is always my vote (that means green for me). This could actually be quite the opportunity for NDP/green to pick up seats. If Mr.PP really steps in it andloses support and NDP gets off their ass and gains support it wouldn’t be totally impossible to have some freaky 5-way power struggle. Probably wishful thinking, but I think with a lot of coordination and luck it could happen

Harris still might, California is only 60% counted with mostly urban places left to count.

Vizor said they could simply send a private message — known as a “whisper” in the game — that included one of these hardcoded strings, such as “Trigger Bot,” and get the player they were messaging banned from the game.

That is so fucking stupid.

Where I live you can either use those cornstarch types or paper bags (very similar to yard waste bags). I like the paper bag for the big bin that goes in the roadside, but cornstarch ones for the one in the kitchen that only sticks around a day or two. Perhaps raise the idea with your local council.

I prefer curbside system because it is able to accept many things that my at home compost can’t handle like dog shit, meats and those biodegradable “plastics” that need industrial facilities. Also apartments.

First they came for RFK jr and I did nothing because I’m not a brain worm…

Water? You mean Pee spread over a russian hooker*?

Out of 10 pro abortion state measures 7 passed (one still undecided i think), and only 1 anti abortion measure passed.

If it was it’s been reverted:

“If it’s important someone will tell me about it” is such an infuriatingly common position.

Form an in person community. Focus on fun, then slowly start integrating shared political activism. Use the experience from this to enter local government.

I don’t think you can start with prison reform.

You can’t rehabilitate someone who is stealing out of necessity or because they are mentally unwell. Have to start with providing UBI and universal Healthcare (including and especially mental health and addiction rehab). Probably also should solve homelessness and provide cheap educational options too.

Once that’s in start improving prisons, make them not slums, provide some ways to keep up with the times (an excon with no concept of the internet is not going to be functional in today’s society) and provide job programs and some way of protecting excons from excessive discrimination. The number one metric to measure the success of a prison should be the recitivism rate.

Now maybe after all this is done there’s a few people who cannot be classified as insane and are deadset on committing violent crimes. I will point out that a lot of organized crime would fall apart when there isn’t a fresh supply of disenfranchised people to exploit at the bottom and a lot of white collar crime does not need full exclusion from society more than exclusion from the system they were exploiting.thise few remaining murders and terrorists can go be in prison.

Tldr: to fix prisons you must first fix society.

It has a real ending, Season 3 ends in away that would make if difficult (but not impossible) to continue the show.

I really enjoyed “Travellers” a 3 season showcase/Netflix time travel show where time travellers possess the bodies of people right before they are going to die and try to stop the apocalypse.

I have an unusually wide neck. Shirts, especially dress shirts won’t fit both my neck and my arm length without tailoring. NGL not having to wear dress clothes was a a part of why I choose to do a computer science major and not a regular math major.
