including a plethora of unions

If there iwas anything that pissed me off more than the Democrats abandoning support for workers it was union leadership doing so.

I completely agree that LLMs aren't intelligent. On the other hand, I'm not sure most of what we call intelligence in human behavior is any more intelligent than what LLMs do.

We are certainly capable of a class of intelligence that LLMs can't even approach, but most of us aren't using it most of the time. Even much (not all) of our boundary pushing science is just iterating algorithms that made the last discoveries.

I solved that for most of them by going AMD with my last upgrade. No more binary drivers solved most of my issues. All that's left is really the anti-cheat kernel garbage. For that I just decided fuck it. I found it easier to stomach changing some gaming preferences than the Microsoft ecosystem.

I finally went 100% Linux and I'm never going back.

It might be even better if they do. Given Trump's falling approval ratings among Hispanics, the math Republicans used for those districts is likely to come back and vote them in the ass anyways.

Criminal justice procedures against who exactly? Last I heard, Epstein only trafficked those girls for his own use. Isn't that what Trump's garden gnome testified to Congress?

I think talk of betrayal and cowardice is overdramatic, but I do think she has been overly influenced by the Democratic establishment reality distortion field.

When these bitter criticisms drag on for years while none of the people making them seem to move the needle more than AOC has, it kind of takes the wind out of your sails. At some point, you either show us how to do it better or admit you either don't know or are even less committed than she is.

If not now then when?

I think AOC gets a whole lot of unfair criticism from the left, but this is a pretty indefensible take. Jeffries not only has to go, he is seriously vulnerable, and his defeat would be the best kind of political shakeup.

He was always shit though. People just saw what they wanted to see.

Harris used to support it to, then stopped. Buttigieg used to support it, then came up with that awful "for all who want it" bullshit. It's almost like someone gave all these establishment types a bit of a tug at the leash.

Maybe treat it like a business instead of a "quick cash grab" like instapot did? They should have used those early profits to diversify into other product areas. When demand for home cooking equipment predictably fell after COVID, they weren't prepared.

Pelosi was (sadly) one of the best establishment Democrats. At least she was competent and had a handful of progressive views. Schumer has always been nothing but pure trash. In any case, yeah, they all gotta go somehow.
