So would other warning labels required by law also be considered a campaign against said products?

MegaUltraChicken ,

To be fair, these are significantly better than the tags an employee has it remove with some tool.

MegaUltraChicken ,

I think they had zip cuffs, they just used the duct tape to keep her in the seat and keep her from spitting. They made the right call, and that lady definitely needs some kind of mental health intervention.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Yeah I agree. Hell they probably could’ve just tossed an n95 on her face to stop the spitting. Let her scream until she loses steam.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Holy shit I totally forgot Dennis Rodman was best friends with Kim Jong Un. Id probably be cool with that being authorized, the last thing we need is that little dictator thinking he can grab a rebound.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Okay obviously SCOTUS is the problem here, but Dick Fucking Durbin should’ve subpoena every single one of those fucks to testify before Congress. I don’t care if they refuse, send the Sergeant At Arms and drag them in. And I’m not talking about just the conservatives. I want to know why the fuck Kagan, Sotomayor, and KBJ don’t think they need an enforceable ethics code, because they’ve signed on to that too.

Letting these unelected zealots operate with minimal pushback is completely unacceptable.

Oh Sony is all over it, here’s one of the diagrams of their patent.

Yeah absolutely, here’s the filing:

Honestly I think it’s just a shit idea. Only way I could see it flying is if you heavily (or completely) subsidized the cost of the television. There’s already a company giving away free ad supported TVs.

www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKE…

MegaUltraChicken ,

I mean, Telly is giving away TVs that have a camera and second screen to play ads. Sony might not think they could get away with it a decade ago, but consumers seem to slowly accept more bullshit over time so I could definitely see their calculus changing in the future.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Yeah it’s awful, I really hope they fail but I’m not entirely sure they will. Most people who sign up are probably pretty good advertising targets.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Usually season 2. At that point the writing team has their footing but isn’t out of ideas and trying to drag it out. Most shows start going downhill in season 3/4.

Jokes on you Nathan’s, now I know Impossible makes hot dogs and want to get some. Their brats are pretty good, didn’t know they made hot dogs.

3 Nixon justices helped end his presidency. Will the 3 Trump appointees force him to stand trial? (apnews.com)

Fifty years ago, three of the justices Richard Nixon appointed to the Supreme Court joined in an 8-0 decision in the Watergate tapes case that effectively ended his presidency, ruling only 16 days after hearing the case. Nixon resigned from office just over two weeks later....

MegaUltraChicken ,

The current justices were chosen specifically to prevent conservatives from facing the kinds of repercussions that they faced from Watergate. It’s also why they created the current right wing media bubble.

MegaUltraChicken ,

in his first term, while he was bad, he was not as bad as Biden

If you ignore the 4 years of constant chaos, mismanaged pandemic that ended up killing millions of Americans, damage done to our reputation on the world stage, the record setting amount of graft, and ten thousand other things… This is absolute lunacy.

If Republicans wont pass Republican border policy, can you please explain how the policies you suggest are passed?

MegaUltraChicken ,

It’s not a false premise to ask how the hell you expect policy to pass within the current makeup of Congress. You can just say you don’t have an answer. You don’t have to type several paragraphs dodging the question every time.

MegaUltraChicken ,

It’s not bad faith to ask you to support your claims. You can’t just scream “bad faith” whenever you get stuck. It’s not gonna work. Have a good night!

And theres only one party that has outlawed RCV in certain areas. We aren’t getting RCV without 2 things:

-Primary moderates and elect progressive Democrats at every level we can -A Democratic supermajority in Congress

MegaUltraChicken ,

S Dakota, Idaho, Montana, Tennessee, and Florida have all banned RCV. Bunch of other GOP controlled statehouses have proposed bills to do the same.

I’m sure there are individual legislators in the Democratic party that have shot down RCV but its opposition is nowhere near that of the GOP.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Shh… He is legend…

MegaUltraChicken ,

Ah I see the Goron version of Google is coming along nicely.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Yeah I learned this lesson by starting with Smartthings and grew to hate the lack of reliability pretty quickly. Home Assistant and a raspberry pi has been significantly better.

MegaUltraChicken ,

I disagree. One is a loving intelligent creature that we should respect and coexist with. The other is a police officer.

MegaUltraChicken ,

To be clear, they didn’t have 2 years. They had ~70 days where they had the seats to pass legislation. That’s when they passed the ACA.

MegaUltraChicken ,

40% of police officers self-report

I can’t even imagine how much higher the real number is when all we have is those who openly admit it.

MegaUltraChicken ,

They didn’t accidentally do shit. They ignored the consequences of their decisions for profit at the expense of everyone else. You don’t get to make $100 billion dollars and feign ignorance about how you got it and the damage you caused to obtain it.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Great story, thanks for sharing!

We’ve got a #3 laying on the couch and a #4 doing his patrol of the house.

Local governments struggle to distribute their share of billions from opioid settlements (apnews.com)

Settlement money to help stem the decades-long opioid addiction and overdose epidemic is rolling out to small towns and big cities across the U.S., but advocates worry that chunks of it may be used in ways that don’t make a dent in the crisis....

Meanwhile my entire state in the US is covered in clouds.

She was accused of faking an incriminating video of teenage cheerleaders. She was arrested, outcast and condemned. The problem? Nothing was fake after all (www.theguardian.com)

Madi Hime is taking a deep drag on a blue vape in the video, her eyes shut, her face flushed with pleasure. The 16-year-old exhales with her head thrown back, collapsing into laughter that causes smoke to billow out of her mouth. The clip is grainy and shaky – as if shot in low light by someone who had zoomed in on Madi’s...

Nah that’s a pretty light sentence, he definitely got some leniency because he’s fuzz.

It’s incredibly rare a patrolman has access to DF tools at all.

MegaUltraChicken ,

There are several agencies that have some patrolmen doing on-scene digital forensics in the US.

Source: I currently work in digital forensics and have trained patrolmen.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Yeah absolutely. We’re on the same page. Just pointing out that they’re slowly rolling more tech out to the knuckle draggers which can be concerning if not done properly (and a lot of the time it isn’t).

Trump told oil executives and lobbyists that he would undo Biden’s climate policies (www.carbonbrief.org)

Donald Trump offered to weaken climate regulations in exchange for a $1bn contribution from oil company bosses to support his return to the White House later this year. During a dinner for senior oil executives at his Mar-a-Lago club last month, Trump “vowed to immediately reverse dozens of president [Joe] Biden’s...

when the choice is between democrat who wants 5 genocides and a republican who wants 10, you’ll still be screeching about how important it is to vote for 99% Hitler since political analysis for liberals stops at the revelation that 99<100.

So you think supporting an additional 5 genocides doesn’t make YOU the “bad guy”. Shit you couldn’t even get to the level of political analysis that “99<100” is, why the hell should anyone listen to a thing you have to say?

MegaUltraChicken ,

Womp fucking womp

MegaUltraChicken ,

I’ve been loving Tosh Show. His guests are way more interesting than listening to comedians talk to comedians all the time. Don’t have any kids, so I find the bedtime stories at the end hilarious as well.

MegaUltraChicken ,

I mean we see that with Sauron and Frodo in the films. It would appear that having the ring on your finger when severed does fuck all to help you out.

Especially if they use full sentences explaining a mundane part of their day

US challenges 'bogus' patents on Ozempic and other drugs in effort to spur competition (www.seattletimes.com)

Federal regulators are challenging patents on 20 brand name drugs, including the blockbuster weight-loss injection Ozempic, in the latest action by the Biden administration targeting industry practices that drive up pharmaceutical prices....

Lina Khan is one of the best appointments Biden has made, and hes made some pretty solid choices.

MegaUltraChicken ,

Same here. Had it for years and it’s always been great. Eventually paid for Pro to support them.

When do we remove the light bulb from our ass?
