If it will keep it going for a year and costs less than the payments on a new-to-you car loan, then I would repair
I can't say this loudly enough: THEY ARE TRYING TO NORMALIZE THE KILLING OF CIVILIANS FOR PARTICIPATING IN FIRST AMENDMENT PROTECTED PROTEST ACTIVITIES.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."
If you need inspiration to keep going right now, may I recommend the story of Robert Smalls, who stole a confederate steamboat and piloted his family and almost 20 others to freedom and went on to become one of the first Black people elected to Congress ✊🏽

It’s not just X. There is simply no winning in a *privately owned* website by a *single person* with an agenda that’s opposite of yours. 🤷
This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

he was a good guy! I met him once when he was running for pres

My luke-warm take is that he, Vance, Hegseth get off on watching men commit violence against or kill other human beings on their orders. The boats, Maduro, ICE. This is not the only reason they do these things, but it is a big reason
He kidnapped the president of Venezuela for them

And oil companies are like

Meh
He kidnapped the president of Venezuela for them

And oil companies are like

Meh

My recollection is thathe was allowed in on more conversations and meetings but did not have much power or influence. This was a shift, but not like the Cheney shift!
Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

I have season tickets to our women’s gymnastics, which is often #1 in the nation. They are superhuman!!

Who is running the lawsuit against Texas A&M on these ba and censorship?
@kevinmkruse.bsky.social Thought you should know that five days before class starts, Tarleton U (part of the A&M system) explained to me that I wasn't allowed to teach your book "White Flight" because the title has the word "White" in it.
I am reminded that every time someone recommended I use Transkribus to train a model to read the handwritten manuscript novels I was working on, I had to explain that the process required first that I hand-transcribe perfectly clean sample of the hand that was generally 75-100% of the document.
This is simply not technically possible. You cannot generate enough writing in-house to train an LLM. You cannot generate enough art in-house to train a GAN. People who think they have a model "trained on our own material" are using a base model of mass-scraped data, unknowingly or disingenuously.
Larian CEO says Divinity could have gen AI assets in it but only if the tools are trained on the studio's own data.

+1 ! I just preordered!

I'm seeing conflicting reporting on the role of the US oil industry. There's this, but then there's reporting that US oil companies don't like the quality of V oil, don't want more oil in a market w/low prices already, are hesitant about spending all the infrastructure $$$ required

(Have used it in 4 or 5 classes of 10-30 students each.)

I have never had a student contact me to request an accommodation, nor have I ever read a commonplace book and thought I needed to tell them if they wanted it they could have it so I can't really say how well this works

I ended up foregoing UD for this assignment and went with accommodation. I told students to contact me if there were issues w/ handwriting. I planned to have those students type & print out their cpb+

yeah I have quizzes too, which will be a problem

yeah I'm supposed to teach online asynch in the fall. I will definitely test out this browser with my assignments. Some of them are labs like contributing to a class Omeka site or uploading your own photos of cultural heritage sites to wikimedia. Will have to test it out
