While Florida generally makes it challenging for people in the state with felony convictions to regain their voting rights, former President Donald Trump had no issue casting a ballot for himself Tuesday in Palm Beach.

...

Under Florida law, if a voter has an out-of-state conviction, Florida will defer to that state’s laws for how a felon can regain his or her voting rights. Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

For Trump, that means he will benefit from a 2021 New York law that allows people with felony convictions to vote as long as they’re not serving a term of incarceration at the time of the election.

Loop Hero . Picked it up for last week for just under $5 and it's been a lot of fun.

It's an Indie rogue-like with a surprising amount going on.

My favorite being is that it mixes a deck builder rogue-like with building a world each run.

The "permanent upgrades" (outside of the game-loop) are pretty interesting as well- building a village/city and managing supplies.

Could be an expansion release, guild drama, random encounter, etc.

Mine would be when I was a newer player doing a Twilight Arbor dungeon run with veterans and I enabled "Plant Mode".

I was the classic Longbow ranger with Stalker who had no idea wtf was going on. We got to the wardens on Leurent's path (up) and it was not going well, I kept going down. The others in my party kept reviving me but in doing so were downed and then killed. The champ probably had about 2% health left when I was the last one standing and I am sweating IRL - mainly nervous that I'm going to get chewed out by the other party members if I can't finish the fight.

One of the party members types "Just spam all your buttons!" so I start clicking anything and everything (yes, was a mouse ability clicker back then... how times have changed).

I don't think I had ever used my elite at that point, mainly because I didn't understand it. I just knew it said something about plants. Ended up clicking Take Root and was instantly felt dread. My character was locked down and I couldn't move as I became enshrouded with plant matter.

As if to further cement the absolute embarrassment that was washing over me, the same party member goes "Plant mode?!".

I seriously considered alt+F4'ing to hide from my shame - only to realize that I wasn't taking any damage anymore... And that there were seed turrets spawning all over as if to save me. They started attacking the Champ and it ticked down another % or so - it was so close to dying!

Then my protective plant shroud disappeared and I was running again, desperately trying to live. However, I was still so low from before I had initially cast the elite that I was quickly downed. Instantly I spammed "Lick Wounds" (As many downs in the open world had taught me).

As I inched closer to death another party members says "OMG It's so close". Fractions of a second before I was about to die my pet starts reviving me - and it happens. One of the slow arching shots of the plant mortar near me lands the final blow on the champion and I revive - I was absolutely stunned.

My party was absolutely ecstatic and kept typing things like "Plant mode ftw" and "Salad mvp". In that moment I felt like I was a seasoned GW2 player just like the rest.

Definitely died to the root attack from the nightmare tree just moments after that though.

This might sound insane... but on a rewatch of S7 E26 near the beginning I swear I hear the 'jumping pixar lamp sound'.

This happens when Fry and Leela are entering the carnival and Fry has a balloon made of Leela. The carnival personal making the balloon I swear is the noise of the Pixar lamp jumping.

And the data they want is the entire FY, is 3,000,000 records and they need every single data attribute making the file like 250 MBs. Then you put it in their SharePoint and they get mad they can't just view it in the browser despite the giant "This file is too large to view online, download it" message.

The decision tree my company uses to deny customer claims is not AI despite the business constantly referring to it as such.

There's definitely a ton of "AI" that is nothing more than an If/Else statement.

Personally, the amount of effort to swap a screen wouldn't be worth it unless my deck's screen was ever broken - but it is cool to see projects like this in the community.
