Off the top of my head: replacing ink or paper, navigating the on-device menu, or troubleshooting bad prints.

It's an interesting article, but I have the same concerns about this strange "Stop Population Decline" organization. Who is funding this?

It looks like something from the PS1

I unironically shout "Let's go, Brandon! Let's fucking go!" whenever I encounter it in the wild. Take it back!

He wants to play the martyr, thinking it will help his candidacy. It helps him in the primary, as it pumps his narrow base up, but how many people can be undecided about Trump at this point? I'm hopeful this circus will turn off anyone not wearing a red cap already.

Currently reading "The Last Watch" because I wanted some fun sci-fi, but the liberties the author is taking on physics and the universe makes it very hard to suspend my disbelief.

Looking at starting a re-read of "All Systems Red" in anticipation of the new Murderbot book coming out. I can't recommend this series enough

I love this. I tuned in to a little Sean Hannity on the radio on my drive home Friday and heard him rail against the selection of Weiss multiple times, while throwing out vague bullet points about why he's unacceptable.

My first reaction was that they're laying the groundwork for when this investigation comes up with nothing, or some really boring crimes (like firearms charges? The Republicans are about gun control now?) and they have to lay the blame on someone so the conspiracy machine can keep pumping out outrage.

Knowing this is a guy they wanted for the job until he started doing it makes it even more delicious, but as we know when Republican's beliefs come up against reality it's the reality that gives, so they'll have no problem ignoring that this was even ever a thing.

Reuters found cyber-espionage teams linked to the North Korean government, which security researchers call ScarCruft and Lazarus, secretly installed stealthy digital backdoors into systems at NPO Mashinostroyeniya, a rocket design bureau based in Reutov, a small town on the outskirts of Moscow.

A report from The New York Times details yet another luxury obtained by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas using funds from a wealthy associate. In this instance, it's been revealed that he purchased a Prevost Marathon RV in 1999, using $267,230 received from Anthony Welters, a former executive at UnitedHealthCare who worked alongside Thomas in the Reagan administration, per the outlet. In a statement on the matter, Welters said that the funds were considered a loan and that it has since been "satisfied," avoiding the phrasing "paid off," which means it could have been a gift that would have then needed to be disclosed

The best part of Lemmy is the low userbase in comparison means it's easier to be original and not try and say the same thing a hundred times.

The graph charting donations received vs when he was indicted and arraigned was one of the more interesting parts of the article to me. I knew that to his supporters the legal news was proof of the deep state and nothing would turn them off of him, but I didn't realize what good press all the news about it would be. I assume the other bumps in the chart are other, smaller news items about him.

I'm not a big fan of too much tech in cars, I hate touchscreen climate controls, and I still drive a manual transmission; but using Android auto with maps and Spotify has been amazing. And the wireless mostly works most of the time.

...Initial evidence suggests that, in a rematch between Biden and Trump, a No Labels and/or West campaign could pull marginal support from Biden and subtly shift the election toward Trump. Whether this would actually make for a potential spoiler, though, is a different question: History — and common sense — suggest that these possible third-party candidates would be most likely to affect the outcome if the overall race were close. But in our deeply divided political era, close elections have been the norm, which makes a spoiler candidacy a live possibility...

One of the primary reasons for the high price was that the accident affected a panel that reaches from the back of the vehicle all the way to the front roof pillars of the truck and fixing the panel required service workers to remove the ceiling and front windshield, the Times said.

What a terrible design

It feels like a direct line from sanctioning Russia to all the right wing groups being broke.
