@johnefrancis we went for a quick walk at lunchtime but the air was pretty bad. Not the worst it’s been recently, but bad enough that we cut short our little amble.
Espionage act charges among those served up for the #IndictmentDay festive season?
Just want to go on record to say I'm against capital punishment.
We should protest that USA still has that on their books. I propose organizing something for maybe the 2025/26 calendar year. Check your calendars and get back to me. No rush.
@arstechnica you have to be a complete idiot to use fake AI generated images in your presidential campaign. But this is the US and the republicans we’re talking about, so I shouldn’t be surprised.
Don't have very high expectations for the Alberta election, but hope they reject the terrible UCP mess.
A big rural/urban divide, and the electorate have been heavily worked-over with US-style right wing lowest-common-denominator populist manipulation – they'd prob vote for Erdogan if he was printed in the ballot.
@ottaross tell that to my mum. She still swears the Tories are the only party that is fiscally responsible. I should have sent her links to stories over the past few years but I didn’t want to start a fight. #sigh
American cheese is not a quality product (Kraft Singles can't even legally be described as "cheese"). But it's pretty hard to find a better substitute when it comes to topping a burger. Eater magazine's Jaya Saxena took a look at the history of the United States' second-most-popular cheese, and tried New School, which is said to be the first "quality" American cheese. Would/do you mix up your Kraft slice with fancy-dan varieties?
@arstechnica instead of gloating how your Tesla is breaking the law, be responsible and drive the damn thing yourself. Otherwise you’re just as responsible for anything that goes wrong.
I've been using #firedox on my #android tablet and #windows laptop for years. I desperately don't want to surrender to a #chrome only world. However, Firefox's bookmark and tab functionality on android suck plain and simple. There are no non-chrome options left, so if I were to lower my trousers and bend over the desk for #Google, which #browser should I try for a little while?
