Trump’s terribleness and the GOP’s want to nominate losable freaks can change the math. However, any scenario that leaves out winning Iowa must include surrendering the US Senate, possibly for the foreseeable future. As dim as it is, it’s our brightest hope.

Cole Schmidtknecht, 22, had insurance but couldn’t afford to refill his asthma inhaler after the cost jumped from $70 to more than $500 at his pharmacy.
Stories like this are why my blood boils any time someone suggests that something being legal means it's a-okay.
And why I hope there are other Player 2's out there in the world keeping watch over the health insurance and pharma price gougers, because we know definitively that the Republicans and Democrats aren't going to do a goddamn thing.
And this bullshit is particularly galling:
In a motion to dismiss the Schmidkneckt’s lawsuit, Optum Rx expressed “its deepest sympathies” for Cole’s death
Walgreens also offered its deepest sympathies and cited privacy
It wasn’t Albuterol he wasn’t able to get, it was fluticasone/Advair Diskus.
No doubt it’s also cheaper on Amazon if that is even feasible in that mess. But I don’t blame the victim for not going to Amazon when his provider fucked him.
@Hobbes_Dent OK, well fluticasone inhaler you can get for $21.95 for a pack of five inhalers from Amazon, Advair if you want the disk as opposed to an inhaler, IS expensive but not $500, $375 current listed price, but you can get the same drug in the same form discus package for $71 if you're willing to go with generic. I've used the latter and it's worked fine for me.
The following article, written by Betsey Piette for Workers World, highlights socialist China’s growing role in challenging US-led imperialist domination and argues that defending China is essential to the global struggle against capitalism.
"Context was the idea of a government banning meat" says the original post.
I agree that you can't possibly be fully informed on every part of everything you buy or consume, there's too much info and for a lot of it you need a good understanding of biology, science and food science to even grasp what some ingredients are for and how they work.
I am not against the governments telling people the dangers of certain foods (such as increased cardiovascular issues with overconsumption of red meat, or risk of stroke due to smoking) but as long as the consumer is informed of such, it should be up to them - not up to the government banning something like meat
And I'm against the abuse animals suffer and the whole meat industry, by the way. I hate what happens to the animals, but thats a whole other can of worms...
I feel those examples are less about eating the meat (well, aside from all the issues that come with eating humans) and more about preventing them becoming meat in the first place - but yes, with everything theres nuance and outliers, but as a general I'd say that if people know what they're eating and know the risks, and what they do doesn't pose risk to others then let them eat whatever it is they're eating...
The photos perfectly elaborate, though... They didn't really get screwed, someone uploaded "animated child sexual abuse photos." Which is not only illegal but against the TOS of Patreon. From the photos shared it looks like this isn't the first time it's happened, either, and Patreon clearly doesn't want anything to do with it.
Not really sure how this equates to them "being screwed." They're responsible for what people upload to their host (they clearly understand that) which is why public uploads like this without restriction aren't a great idea.
Yeah, it really comes back to the idea of if a file hosting service is responsible for what the user uploads, which is an argument that has been going on since the beginning of the internet. Ultimately, yes, I think they are. I think you have to actively moderate what is uploaded, but on top of that, there has to be swifter and stricter punishment for those that do upload things that are against TOS and/or illegal. If someone is uploading CSAM, then law enforcement needs to go after them. Maybe they'll actually do something people appreciate, instead of killing minorities.
Edit: If you are downvoting me without giving a reason, I just have to assume you are Libertarian, and that's being generous.
You're being downvoted because your assertion that hosts are responsible for what users upload is generally false.

not having AC in a car with all black interior is a tough pill to swallow. i don't think i can handle that all summer with the amount of driving i'm going to be doing
i got the pressure plate off the AC clutch, and tested some electrical connections, but it looks like more stuff is gona have to come apart
the way everything is packed in here it may be necessary to drain the engine coolant and remove the radiator, AC condenser, alternator and starter, and the front part of the car frame, just to get to the AC compressor " title=""/>

It's mini ITX, with 3 potential finishes: a jade green, a silver, and a matte black, which is the one they sent me.
It comes with Intel 13th or 14th gen CPUs, up to an i9 14900, it can accommodate 2 M.2 SSDs and 2 SATA 3 drives, up to 24 terabytes in total. It can come with or without dedicated graphics, which can go up to a Radeon RX 7700XT, or an Nvidia RTX 4070. It can also get up to 96 gigs of DDR5 RAM, and it obviously has wifi and bluetooth, and it comes with Linux preinstalled, Tuxedo OS being the default.
The model Tuxedo sent me has an i7 13700, 1TB of PCIe 3 SSD, 32 gigs of RAM, and the RX 7700XT with 12 gigs of VRAM.

Bazzite
So, Bazzite is a weird one: it's based on Fedora Atomic, so it's an "immutable" distro, and it's built using universal blue, which is a build system that lets you create tailored distro images for plenty of purposes.
I ran all the games at the native resolution of my monitor, so 3440x1440. Horizon is run using the latest version of Proton from Valve, the rest are native Linux games. Everything was ran at their max settings, at the native resolution, without any resolution scaling. Everything ran under Wayland, with all the latest updates applied.
So, For Horizon Zero Dawn, running the benchmark gave me an average of 80 FPS at these maxed out settings. In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I got 105 FPS on average in the benchmark, and for Total War Warhammer 3 on the battle benchmark, it reached 56.4 FPS and 52.5 FPS on the campaign benchmark.
Nobara
Next is Nobara. This isn't an immutable distribution, it's Fedora, plus a lot of kernel patches, addons, drivers and tools focused specifically on gaming and on improving performance
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I got 106 FPS on average in the benchmark. In Total War Warhammer 3's battle benchmark, I got 57 FPS on average, and 54.7 FPS on average for the campaign benchmark. In Horizon Zero Dawn, Nobara got 80 FPS on average.
HoloISO
I also gave a shot to HoloISO, in its new immutable form, but it never managed to give me a bootable system, no matter how hard I tried.
Chimera OS
Chimera OS is an arch based distribution, it's an atomic distro, so immutable, and includes a bunch of emulation tools as well as optimizations for gaming. It defaults to GNOME as its desktop, compared to KDE for the other distros I tested.
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I got 102 FPS on average in the benchmark, similar to other distros I tested. In Total War Warhammer 3's battle benchmark, I got 55.3 FPS on average, and 51.1 FPS on average for the campaign benchmark. In Horizon Zero Dawn, Chimera OS got 73 FPS on average, strangely lower than other distributions.
Tuxedo OS
Just for fun, I decided to also run all of these games on the preinstalled Tuxedo OS, to see if these gaming distros offer improved performance compared to a "normal" system. Here are the results.
In Horizon Zero Dawn, at the max resolution and max settings, with any upscaling, The Atlas S running Tuxedo OS got 81 FPS on average.
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, at the max settings and resolution, Ubuntu 24.04 reached 106 FPS on average.
In Total War Warhammer 3's battle benchmark, at the max settings and resolution, I got 57 FPS on average, and in the campaign benchmark, it reached 54.9 FPS

Lyrics: Fragile seams I opened up too quick and all my dreams Were walking out, I'd slowly lost my fire With every single man a river cried I had no sensation, completely numb, left with no satisfaction I thought no one could ever get me high again I swear, I was not looking
[Pre-Chorus] Oh, waited so long I thought the real thing was a fake I thought it was a tool to break me down You proved me wrong again
[Chorus]If love were liquid it would drown me In a placeless place would find me In a heart shape come around me And then melt me slowly down If love were human it would know me In a lost space come and show me Hold me and control me and then melt me slowly down Like chocolate
[Verse 2] Tastes so good My heart's been mended, who'd have thought it would? An empty bet and still I won the cash A man who I love and who loves me back
[Pre-Chorus] Oh, waited so long For love to heal me so I'd feel it Thought it wasn't breathing, then you came You proved me wrong again
[Chorus]If love were liquid it would drown me In a placeless place would find me In a heart shape come around me And then melt me slowly down If love were human it would know me In a lost space come and show me Hold me and control me and then melt me slowly down Like chocolate If love were liquid it would drown me In a placeless place would find me In a heart shape come around me And then melt me slowly down If love were human it would know me In a lost space come and show me (show me) Hold me and control me and then melt me slowly down Like chocolate
Come here, zoom in, catch the smile There's no doubt it's from you And I'm addicted to it now Just one look, boy, to melt me down Just one heart here to save me now Your candy kisses are sweet, I know Hold me tight, baby, don't let go Just one look, boy, to melt me down Just one heart here to save me now Your candy kisses are sweet, I know Hold me tight, baby, don't let go (like chocolate) Just one look, boy, to melt me down Just one heart here to save me now Your candy kisses are sweet, I know Hold me tight, baby, don't let go Just one look, boy, to melt me down Just one heart here to save me now Your candy kisses are sweet, I know Hold me tight, baby, don't let go
If love were liquid it would drown me In a placeless place would find me In a heart shape come around me And then melt me slowly down If love were human it would know me In a lost space come and show me Hold me and control me and then melt me slowly down If love were liquid it would drown me In a placeless place would find me In a heart shape come around me And then melt me slowly down If love were human it would know me In a lost space come and show me Hold me and control me and then melt me slowly down Like chocolate
