So ICE shot a Registered Nurse in the back while he was trying to help a woman who was just pepper sprayed.

That Registered Nurse was exercising their protected right in Minnesota to have a firearm

DHS/ICE already lying saying the man was brandishing it when multiple angles show it was secured

@admiralbuck.bsky.social Wondering if you've pondered what a 25th century Endurance Class would look like?

I'm sure Amy Klobuchar is just "happy to be included" like when she was participating in Trump's Inauguration this time around.
Amy Klobuchar: "There are now more ICE agents in Minnesota than there are police officers combined in Minneapolis and St. Paul. So they are outnumbering our own local police officers out on the streets."

CES was really a joke this year...The "Consumer Electronics Show" really showed very little for PC tech from AMD and other companies.

AMD truly jumped the shark by doing a full enterprise enshittification stance by putting Trump policy makers on stage talking about closed loop AI projects.

FYI, someone should download all the Epstein Files from justice.gov

The fact that people are not questioning prediction markets and something like Kalshi is trying to treat themselves like a trading platform...or Robinhood/Coinbase getting into gambling under the guise of trading is WWWWIIIIIILD.

Someone should keep DJT's post about Rob Reiner handy for the future. As a reminder when people inevitably say unkind things about him after he passes.

If there's someone who doesn't deserve to be deified by his cult...it's DJT.

When someone on the Right gets murdered, they are willing to go to the ends of the Earth to silence criticism and commentary on the dead. To the point of arresting people. When it's someone on the left, however...

Rules for Thee but not for Me it seems.

DJT going full deranged about Rob Reiner

I’m pretty sure if @microsoft.com made a Windows 12 version that was 10$ with all the AI features and a version for $150 without those features…The version without AI would outsell the cheap one in install numbers

Seriously, windows 11 is becoming really annoying to use and pushing me towards Linux

Paramount trying to strong arm and buy Warner Bros is exactly why leveraged buyouts shouldn’t be allowed.

My Electricity Bill for an empty apartment is 100$ (5days usage before I moved out in a 33 day period).
Electricity prices are soaring while utilities rake in billions in profit. Here's three ideas to bring bills down:
1) Make power cheap in the middle of the day
2) Stop utility profiteering
3) Keep climate impacts off bills

My latest in @theatlantic.com.

If I fell asleep or even looked like I was falling asleep in as many meetings as the Orange one…I’d be dealing with unemployment.

I will say that this change is definitely a worthwhile one. I'm sure there are other considerations but including where the account is based on is a big way to combat misinformation...

Especially in the right-wing influencer space...

Much like influencers are required to put #Ad or #Sponsored on their posts to declare when they've been compensated for content.

Any broadcaster/news program should be required to disclose and watermark AI-Generated / 'AI-Enhanced' Video prominently when showing it...or face escalating penalties...

Sorry I’ve been away for a bit. In the process of some big life changes and made social media a lesser part of it too.

Also I’m moving out of NYC today after 15 years.

No loaded reason other than a change of pace, more space and a shorter commute.

Peak male living space.

Truly funny to see that @blizzard.com has actual space on their site to show their games...but instead choose to push Starcraft, Diablo II and Heroes of the Storm 'below the fold' behind a button to actually view lol...

One of the things I hate about Instagram and other social networks is just how much the algorithm dilutes what you want to see.

I spent some time scrolling and found that 1 in 3 posts were from people I followed.

The other 2 were either ads or "Suggested" content

So 60+% of what I'm given is algo

It's funny how Elon demands investigations and makes grandiose claims that it should be illegal to boycott advertising or using a platform that he owns...

While simultaneously demanding people stop using Netflix because he doesn't like the content on that platform.

Reminder, this is literally what Republicans have been attacking "The Left" for.

For context...Bartiromo is *LITERALLY* describing Socialism right now. It's not some revolutionary concept...but has been vilified by politicians for decades here.
BARTIROMO: The idea of government owning portions of public companies -- this is something that free-market have to get their heads around.

BESSENT: Maria, there are decisions that the US government makes that we believe are good for society

Kamala Harris showing yet again that she can't make a real stance on issues. She'd be better than Trump...but it's a sad indictment on politics in the US that our choice in candidates so tightly restrained between Mediocre and Pure Evil.

It's wild that Jimmy Kimmel gets pulled off the air but people like Jesse Watters and Brian Kilmeade get to spout nonsense and stoke hate and violent rhetoric freely.

FYI this is the study the DOJ quietly tried to delete before announcing their crackdown on the "Radical Left".

The results indicated domestic terrorism was more likely to originate from certain groups within the US...and not likely from the "radical left".

Randy Pitchford out here saying "go code your own engine and show us how it's done"...

Fuckin' What? Your studio didn't code your own engine. You took an off the shelf one. When people with God Rigs get half the performance on your game than on better looking other games...that's a you problem

Jeffries showing in real time why he's not the one to lead the Democrats now or ever.
Following Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s criticism of Democratic leadership for refusing to endorse Zohran Mamdani, Hakeem Jeffries’ spokesman mocks: “Chris Van Who?”
