@awinston They’re really trying to make the Bircher “it’s a republic not a democracy” bullshit happen aren’t they?

Oh, so Paul Singer, the Manhattan Institute's chairman emeritus, has decided that we need to be at war for Israel despite an overwhelming majority of Americans *opposing* the conflict
Financial Times@FT
Elliott Management likened the US-Israeli war on Iran to the Allies’ fight against the Nazis, backing pre-emptive action to prevent what it described as 'potentially apocalyptic' consequences. ft.trib.al/CRzZeLy

@ComputerLove_ I still remember going from Telnet to Gopher then to W3. All within a decade. 3 decades ago.

@sciencegirl And exactly why companies want computers making management decisions now.
Can’t imprison an algorithm and you can’t sue software.

@hackaday In the 80s when smoking was still allowed in the computer labs with dumb terminals at UTexas the amber blended in nicely with the cigarette burns on the keyboard and nicotine stains on everything.
English

We'd love to see a PhD thesis on why green-on-black terminals are more "cinematic" or "hacker" than amber, which was well represented in the actual technology used in past eras.

@jwross55 @aaronp613 Nah, it’s indicative of a level of sloppiness that has been going on in parts of the business the public doesn’t see, but the people who bring the public the experiences that surprise & delight are neither surprised nor delighted by.

@GsuGrinding Besides Comey’s cowardice to face the NYC Field Office of the agency ran & his complete disregard for DOJ policy is one of the reasons we’re here in the first place. Let him squirm instead of eating out on the liberals he hated his entire professional life dime for a while.

@GsuGrinding I do too, but that started seeing John Yoo continue to be accepted in legal circles, polite society, and his bar card hasn’t been ceremonially thrown into Mordor yet.

Can we please get this POS case tossed without prosecutors proposing the dumbest methods possible?

I imagine this will be Exhibit A in Comey’s motion to dismiss his seashell indictment for selective prosecution, based on a failure to charge others similarly situated.

@lexetscientia @GsuGrinding Also “wire fraud” & “wild frog”.
You don’t want to be charged with a tent peg wild frog—there’s too much foreign sick evidence in the dig it all error.

@GsuGrinding Weird take. What any lawyer notices—especially in the South—is how close to homophonic lawyer and *liar* can be.
English

Man I read this as homophobic the first couple times and I was really confused.
Lawgressive Attorney@80s_Esq
Did you notice “lawyer” and “loyal” are almost homophonic? Do you know why? It is simple. It’s because legal practitioners are lawyer (loyal) to the interests of their clients.

This is why young people are becoming communists. The material conditions are recruiting them better than we ever could.
