The point of brining up Diddy is was that he got a restricted laptop in MDC and Luigi is in MDC.

MDC should have this figured out. This smells like stalling.

Edit: also worth noting, most prisons have laptop and tablet platforms that are specifically for prisoners. The devices, the network, etc. It’s all an out of the box solution handled by a vendor, and it’s locked down from the jump. This should be like McDonald’s serving another hamburger. It’s a request for something that has been dumbed down and automated.

To comply with jail regulations, she said, the laptop had to be sent to an outside technology vendor to disable its connections to the internet, printers and wireless networks — a process that took “many weeks to complete.”

lol. Weeks? MDC has restricted laptops specifically designed for this and several high profile cases in MDC recently got them. Diddy had one.

This Incel post has an uncomfortable amount of upvotes.

Wait, this is their car when they’re practicing “self control?”

It ain’t going to right it. It’s just going to make it less tipped toward the GOP.

The GOP is also like to gain 2-3 seats in Ohio, and 1 in Missouri with these shady midcycle redistricting efforts.

All in all, this BS will probably net the GOP 2-3 seats as it stands now.

Race cannot be used as a proxy to advance political interests, but that is precisely what the California General Assembly did with Proposition 50 — the recent ballot initiative that junked California’s pre-existing electoral map in favor of a rush-job rejiggering of California’s congressional district lines

They’re going to try to prove this lie, despite CA saying that this was purely about political party power, not race. And the SCOTUS already said that horseshit is perfectly fine.

Cut Meta some slack. They’re not Nvidia. They’re only a $1.5T company. They can’t make everything native.

The right is super scared of her. She’s normal, relatable, charismatic but also brave enough to fight back against injustice.

Once you create a monetization team that puts ads in shit, they’re going to want to keep putting more ads in stuff. They’re all judged on how much better they do year over year.

Apple should’ve never created a team that sold ads on their platforms.

A chunk of people still use it to provide a counter narrative to the right wing propagandists. Kind of like when Buttigieg or Newsom go on Fox News.
