Wouldn’t it be wild if there was a Sunday news show that did nothing but debunk the bullshit on all the other news shows—in real time? Dana Bash says something idiotic (again), and you quickly flip on the Bullshit Today Channel (BTC), and a panel of people who actually know something are patiently explaining what she doesn’t know, isn’t saying, or can’t comprehend?
Sorry, I'm a Californian. The political BS around California being part of America is contentious enough.
Am I supposed to know who that person is?
We have approximately 333.3 million Americans presently and I will be dead and buried having never heard of most of them, let alone ever bothered to get to know the slightest thing about them presumably.
Based on search engines, she's apparently some "journalist" for CNN?
I haven't paid for cable since my marriage fell apart in 2005 and have no plans to pay for advertising laden media ever again. My ex-wife liked soap operas. I already spend too much time staring at glowing screens and don't need more distractions from for-profit morons.
Dana Bash joined CNN in 1993. She has since become one of the network’s most prominent political correspondents and anchor. Which is not a reflection on her skills as a journalist, which are fairly opaque.
The largest camera ever built for astrophysics arrived this week at the Rubin Observatory at Cerro Pachón in Chile.
The LSST camera, built by the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, CA, is the final major component of the Rubin Observatory's Simonyi Survey Telescope to arrive at the summit.
Development of the observatory has been funded by the NSF and the DOE.
The Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time LSST Camera is the largest camera ever constructed for astronomy. It is a large-aperture, wide-field optical camera, capable of viewing light from the near ultraviolet to near infrared wavelengths.
Length: 3.73 m
Height: 1.65 m
Weight: 2,800 kg
Pixels: 3.2 billion
Wavelength: 0.32–1.06 μm
Filters: 6 (u-g-r-i-z-y)
Field of view = 3.5°.
Operating temperature: -100°C
The focal plane of the Vera C. Rubin telescope consists of 189 charge-coupled device (CCD) sensors, arranged in a total of 21 3-by-3 square arrays. The system is cooled to about -100 °C to minimize noise.
The 3.5-degree field of view of the 60 cm wide array is 40 times the area of the full moon in the sky.
Camera Data Rates: ~3.2 GBytes/sec peak raw data
1 pixel = 16 bits (raw)
3.2 billion pixels read-out time: 2 sec
Thinking through the Biden meme manager thing, you can probably only make good memes shitting on the other side not making your side look better. The only thing that worked for them was Dark Brandon, which admittedly is good.
Ce mardi, une proposition de loi transphobe va être votée visant à interdire les transitions médicales pour les personnes trans mineures et condamner les médecins qui feraient des prescriptions en ce sens.

So apparently, according to Twitch, livestreaming yourself playing the SAME CLIP for 22 hours straight with EARRAPE AUDIO is perfectly fine & doesn't violate their terms of service. Are you...kidding me?
Required disclaimer: the thing is 7k words long which means it /definitely/ needs to be edited.
However, it took me more than a full work-day to make this thing and I just don't have the motivation (financial or otherwise ;) ) to bother right now.
So, 🙇♀️ I'd like to apologize in advance for rambling bits & sentences that should have been cleaned up, and images that could have been cropped more, and all the other stuff that editing would have fixed.
