So then I said, "Yes, Chicago is a great city for shopping, but, I'm sorry, I can't help you get a visa."

Last Notes npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser A few states do call special elections. Most authorize the state governor to appoint an interim with a replacement selected in the next election. Sometimes that's the next scheduled Senate election, sometimes just the next election. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser RE: https://scicomm.xyz/@JohnBarentine/116211557541685907 npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser How about posting a poll asking if people have seen a Chalamet movie? npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Call it RFKJr's Junkie Diet. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Farmers sell the raw material of groceries, not groceries. Someone's already paid farmers for every farm product converted into a grocery product sitting on the shelves of a food bank. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Can't wait until someone sues Google after it blocks access because it guessed their age and got it wrong. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser If Beans on Toast was sold here in the US restaurants would pile 8 oz of grated cheese on top. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Republicans may think warm glowing thoughts about grandma leaving the nursing home to live with her 55-year-old children in their lovely little gated community, gathering for Bible readings and such. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Gee, massive copyright violations don't make software a competent chess player? npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser It takes faith to be a Sox fan. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser You can incur the wrath of #MAGA by doing nothing more than quoting the words the Bible attributes to Jesus. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser "The US is not as big a share of the global import market as it once was!" npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser After a year or so of #Trump and #RFKJr, editors are going to be assigning stories about boom times in the cemetery, gravestone, and funeral industries. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Those "ultra-wealthy tax cheats" have the GOP on retainer. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Americans who support democracy need to stand with #Zelensky and #Ukraine because #Trump is America's enemy and our enemy. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I think Musk has no intention of evaluating any of the responses by any means. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Not a math wizard but my numbers say if Elon spent one minute of quality time evaluating (ha ha) each of those alleged 1 million responses, and kept at it 24/7, he'd finish in 694 days. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Presidents typically grasp some notion of the national interest. They've disagreed about it but at least they knew it exists. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I've never seen a reason to use a #Meta product that outweighs the risk of using it. Despite that, I manage to live a non-hermit life. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Millions of #MAGA Americans see science as blasphemy, a direct rejection of their belief that everything worth knowing has already been revealed by the Christian god to people like themselves and, as such, science is a denial of that god's existence. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Quite a trick for #Netanyahu to turn #Gaza into rubble and mass graves and then walk away after the criminal president signs up for some ethnic cleansing and grave desecration. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Sad so many Elon cult boys think we can escape ourselves by moving to a different planet. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Put tracks on the course and call it Giant-Sized Hotwheels. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser “We're really talking about deaths” npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser The Speaker of the House is third in line to the presidency. Elon Musk is ineligible for the presidency. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser No one voted for Musk. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I'm sure a "guide for telling children about Moxie's demise' from a little band of techies won't be at all weird. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser We should call it morals training instead of diversity training. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser A Musk guy. As much as I'm enthusiastic about humans in space, it is much more important that Musk and all his allies, proteges and fanboys fail ignominiously. Their success is too high a price to pay. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Why does any president even need an AI and crypto czar? npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser There's an adventure to be had charging an EV that costs too much for most Americans to afford? npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser How about someone ask Trump the distance to the Moon, the distance to the nearest star, and if wings work in space. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Ukraine and Europe should ignore Trump's fake peace plans. His interest is solely in assisting his ally, war criminal Putin, achieve victory by forcing Ukraine's effective surrender. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Raw milk faddists seem like the kind of fools who would vaccinate cows but not themselves. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser When did Elon's PR staff start writing your posts? npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser The fact that Trump always talks about "ending" the war in Ukraine and never talks about the West's obligation to roll back the Russian invasion of Ukraine tells us everything about his pro-Putin stance. Seeking Orban's advice confirms the point. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser "Trump's ally" is synonymous with "Putin's ally". npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Lasagna here, one batch veggie and one not, and bourbon chocolate pecan pie. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser No need to look around for reasons here. Everything we know about Musk tells us he is convinced he is a genetically superior human loyal only to himself and his wealth. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Software makes a noise. Someone in marketing says it's a product of intelligence, just like trash search results. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I console myself with the thought that a lot of these Trump nominees are likely as lazy as they are awful. They won't be putting in 60-70 hour weeks running departments. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser If Jesus came back today, the planet is full of people calling themselves Christians who would decide he was a woke threat to their privilege and power, deny he was who he claimed to be, and then hand him over to the authorities. Would be very deja vu for him. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I am impatient. I used a Keurig and Fedora with my own post-install script. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser It's important to have alternatives to SpaceX, in the US and globally, even if its owner wasn't a malign force. Russia's space industry, though, has a history of releasing proposals that die from lack of funds. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser The 43 escaped monkeys are in a hotel writing Hamlet. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser After last night, staying on #X means you trust that Elon Musk will not hand over your posts and personal details to whatever Trumpian agency wants them. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Used the BIOS system recovery in a Dell XPS15 y'day to reinstall #Windows npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser This started showing up a few weeks ago: npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Arguing that free speech depends on access to TikTok asserts that free speech did not exist before TikTok existed. Absurd, of course. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser That's inaccurate. Your distro's package manager will resolve dependencies of packages installed from the repositories maintained by that distro and any others you may have installed. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser I just disagree that open source is about "scratching your own itch". Users by definition lack the skills and knowledge to scratch that itch. npub1zvre0wdjm73j6tn6axfx0umr2f5kxlu2jjl0763xp4wur7cq8g5s9eaxvr Corb_The_Lesser Fine to say to developers.
