Oh no.

Not undermine the legitimacy of the Court!

Those fucksticks did it themselves. Anything the Executive does to put it back on course is an improvement.

The stove thing is soo stupid. It's not even a ban on gas stoves, it's just requiring you to properly ventilate areas when they are installed.

T1 diabetes here. A cure is just 5 years away...

They told me, when I was diagnosed in 1992.

Seventh time's the charm.

It's not just politicians. That entire generation clings to power and jobs, refusing, either due to ego or that they have trickle down economics'd themselves out of a social safety net and pension.

A huge majority of the leadership positions in major companies are old people. They need to learn to retire and step aside.

Ding. The SCOTUS ruling is wildly unpopular. Republicans literally just took one of their cornerstone issues -- abortion -- and said, "Nah, we're done with this," and handed it to the Democrats to use in elections for several cycles.

I really liked it.

The early seasons were less serious than later ones. But overall, it did well with serious social issues and addresses some very relevant topics.

The storyline with Topah was absolutely amazing. At every step, each character was portrayed well, and respectfully. It's rare that there is a story like that that still has conflict without having a clear villain.

The time travel episode with Gordon was also especially brutal with some great performances from everyone on screen.

There were a few misses. I found the Isaac / Doctor relationship... forced, even if it did bring us the best line in decades ("As I am incapable of stuttering, I must conclude that you heard me."). I also don't think I'm alone with disliking the Charlie character in season 3.

Nope, still not a drag queen.

Weird.

It's worth noting these are the firmware / microcode fixes.

There's already a software solution available,

There is a software workaround, you can set the chicken bit DE_CFG[9]. This may have some performance cost, and the microcode update is preferred.

AMD has also already released a fix for the big boy - the EPYC processor.

The "dog caught the car" in the Supreme Court abortion ruling. The GOP can no longer use abortion as a wedge issue, because the issue is, essentially, resolved. They got what they said they wanted.

But the GOP always used abortion as a wedge issue, to drive people to polls to vote against their otherwise best interests because "Democrats will kill babies!" or similar.

The GOP is desperately looking for a new wedge issue and an enemy. And like most fascists do, they look to a marginalized group to demonize that doesn't have the ability or numbers to fight back. They appear to have settled on trans people for the moment.

It's not about actual trans people, it's about making their base mad about something so they'll vote ( R ).
