Yeah, I know.

Aurora is immutable, I fucked up. Oops.

Grok’s got some jokes.

And we all get a share!

“Restricted” means the app has been limited by your Android on the amount of data it may transmit/receive as a background app. The app settings assume you’re on a meterd or low-volume data plan, and so they don’t transmit data except when they’re active, or up on your screen.

Their upload/download tallies will still count in your Network accounting. Frankly, your screenshot looks like something I’d expect. Nothing untoward seems to be occurring.

Let those other restricted apps 'run in background" (an app permission) and you’ll see a different picture.

Looks like Python, but in an editor with a weird TUI scrollbar

Eh, don’t be so harsh. We posters here are like sports fans following the team in the off season, watching every news drop to analyze and discuss with other fans.

Outside of here, Most of America just isn’t that clued in to politics for a number of reasons. With the decline in consumption of print & broadcast news (and their inherent slant these days, let’s be honest) you have to put in effort to find the story and follow what’s going on. And that’s for when the Algorithm hasn’t otherwise distracted you with the latest celebrity scandal. For the younger demographic who have to work so damned hard to make a decent living or even just make ends meet, it’s probably just demoralizing to watch two old men yelling at the clouds, and feel like their own concerns aren’t even being discussed. And then you have to go looking watch a couple different takes on the same story (so many stories!) to see past the spin and get even a sense of what the fuck is ACTUALLY happening. People are busy, man.

I can’t really blame them for just now getting interested, because at least now it is interesting. I hate the situation for what it is, myself, but here we are.

Of course you’re right, but this time America-- significantly, the part that votes Democratic-- is pretty divided over it and that plays to Trump’s strength. By agreeing to keep the war going until next year, Bibi can accomplish at least two things simultaneously. First, it keeps the Democratic base divided between supporting the Israeli state vs doing anything substantive about the death, destruction and genocide occurring in Gaza. Any Democratic candidate that takes a stance against the war publicly will suddenly find their opponent very well funded. Meanwhile a key bloc of voters remains alienated by the party’s policy. It’s a heavy albatross hung about the necks of the Democrats. Harris has to campaign with that as a backdrop, and of course the Republicans will make hay over it.

Second, if and once Trump back is in office then Israel will be free to roll through Gaza and perhaps even the West Bank, completely wiping out any chance of a Palestinian state. The war ends, and Trump gets to say he resolved the conflict, which means “he won.”

So, yes. Different than 1980, but not really. All Republican dirty tricks-- and violations of the Logan Act-- to muddy up an election for fun and profit.

Ah, Tennessee, what can we say about you that hasn’t yet been blessed upon the bottom quinquagesitile?

Don’t sleep on Kentucky Republicans. Horse thieves and swindlers extra-ordinaire, the lot of 'em.

Oh hey look, Trump is trying to pull a stunt on Biden Harris like Reagan pulled on Carter with the Iranian hostages back in '80.

Hey. Take this, it’s rough out there: ❤️

I read the article and, respectfully, I’ll disagree. Three incidents, a proffered confession and a suicide. Sometimes the circumstantial evidence adds up. Too bad for the victims, hey?

Listen: I’m not a sentimental type, but where sick people are struggling I’m all for making ALL of the help available. Where sick people lash out outside of treatment, criminally, I say the system failed and actions have consequences. You can’t be subjective here, or you lose the thread in the decision tree.

Gentle with the down votes, friends, I already know I’m the asshole here.

Tragic for the victims at least.

I draw the line before sympathy for premeditated murder. No apologies.

So help us, may their lack of discipline be their undoing

Jeez. I thought it was parody, but they really are afraid someone’s about to drop an N-bomb

Back in Twenty-diggity Teens, which is how we used to call the 2010s, there was this fella who used to be a talking head for the Dept of Justice, some bald fella iff’n my memory still serves, who sweated a lot. A lot of us were on the Reddits in those days because the Kaiser hadn’t yet annexed Austria or whatever. Also, we wore a lot of flannel in those days because grunge was retro and climate change was still called global warming, bit it was still actually cold out.

Anyway. Where was I? …Oh right! That bald fella.

I can’t remmemer his name, but he was always so sweaty! Like a country vicar on the witness stand, he has hiding’ summat.

What was my point? Sweaty guy… Impeachment… Something about darts and who dealt’em.

Ah anyway. Did I tell you about that horse race in '88 with the three legged mare??
