A better question would be what are you going to do to make sure the orange Mussolini doesn’t win?

Make sure you, your friends, and your family are Registered to vote.

Make sure everyone you know gets to the polls on our before election day.

Become a poll worker.

We need to make sure we vote in numbers too big to steal. In 2000 the election was handed to Bush by the Supreme Court because of one state. Looking at the last term, the court would absolutely find a way to shift the election to the con in chief if it was just one swing state with irregularities.

Talk to people about project 2025 and what it will mean. This is how the guardrails from 2017 are removed. This is how we start a Christian theocracy. If we vote blue all the way down, the Dems may be able to put stronger rails in place. If it’s not Project 2025 it will be Project 2029. These conservative think tanks have been doing this since Reagan, but this is by far the scariest.

Talk to friends and family about the Biden administration wins. It’s not just Biden you’re voting for, it is a continuation of his administration.

• CHIPS and science act bringing an entire industry back home. This will make us competitive with China and boat domestic manufacturing.
• Inflation reduction act an investment in renewable and traditional energy.
• Biden has actually increased fossil fuel production which has kept energy prices low and curbed the post pandemic inflation. Record oil production SPR management
• What Has Biden Accomplished? Look at These 10 Metrics, Not the Polls

Bottom line, this is likely the most important election of many of our lives. All of us must participate.

Maybe? People willing to copy and distribute this content will always be around and you will never catch them all. People willing to pay a discount or seek not and find said content will always be around. And there will be those who will watch a show or a movie because it is freely available, who would never pay a dime for it.

They will never end piracy and I’d argue it might actually be bad for business if they did.

There are many people under the age of 25 who do not fully understand what happened on January 6. They are being inundated with news of genocide and how Biden is directly responsible. They do not fully understand what the first Trump presidency was. Only politics junkies seem to understand the threat of project 2025 and plan 47.

We have an entire generation who hate Biden and didn’t see the threat of Trump.

I had an LG and a Kyocera back in the day that could do that. They had some small non-connected games. Of course I couldn’t do much with the hotspot as this was on 3G.

FYI PBS gets very little from public funding.

Fine these mother fuckers! We need legislation to limit income disparity between insiders and grunts. It needs to work on total compensation and include contract workers. Any insider making more than 15x the average or median income should have to pay 50% of the difference and that fine should increase every year it’s not corrected.

Interesting. The app isn’t actually listed anymore after whatever I did.

Never. Keep work and personal completely separate.

I checked to see if this was on my pixel 6 pro. It wasn’t but I found this.

Not something I installed and not something I would allow.

The uninstall did not appear to work UNTIL I disabled the app and cleared the data.

2018 Subaru Forester

It might be a bit more updated than most, but in general less smart than most cars today.

• Still have to press a button on the key to unlock the doors, or use the convenient key.
• Need to put the key into the ignition to start.
• Doors do not automatically lock out unlock.
• Manual parking break.
• Rear door is 100% manual (if you didn’t count un/lock with key fob).
• Basic Bluetooth functionality.
• Equipped with OnStar, and Sirius.
• Shipped with 3G cellular, which no longer works. They do offer a free upgrade, I never bothered.

By my own assessment, it’s the dumbest modern car you can get.

I’m always using assistant to play music in the car or on home speakers. Gemini isn’t able to do this. I also discovered I can’t use the Gemini app without allowing it to replace the assistant.

I will say I have had similar problems getting assistant to identify songs. It used to work pretty seamlessly.

Against all privacy recommendations I do allow my phone to id music at all times. Nice thing is I have a shortcut to history, it doesn’t always work, bit does most of the time.

Mentor of mine used to say

Developers, fix their heads, they lose their asses. Fix their asses they lose their heads.

Gemini doesn’t work like Google assistant.

It doesn’t seem to be able to actually take actions.

Things I used to do with assistant that do not work with Gemini

• play something
• Play “song title”
• Play artist

I don’t know about other things like seeing timers or running routines, I shut off Gemini as soon as I realized it couldn’t handle my most used requests.

You’ve got a few years on me but this is very close to my thoughts whenever I hear someone decry the increase in youth who identify as LGBT+. Could it simply be more teens are more comfortable identifying because there is more acceptance?

There is still a long way to go, but it is better than it was.

I still know people my age who are hiding who they are sexually, in unhealthy or unsatisfying relationships, and that’s just those I know about.

Don’t punish the taxpayer, punish the troll.

Requiring a government agency to pay a penalty will only ensure the agency will work with less efficiency. In turn, ineffective agencies are further criticized and will become a target for privatization, which only ever serves special interests and those with means.

Put an end to this one and for all. Pass a law that requires any entity which files suit on the basis of being a parent holder must show that they use the patent to earn income from sales that are proven to be independent from them and their officers. If the suit is only being filed for easy money, they should be fined heavily.

“I am reporting this call to the FTC.”

If you want, you can also attempt to get a callback number and company name, state they are registered in before telling them you are reporting the call.

The more info you can report the better.

I always thought Google Glass looked pretty sleek. Much better than having a full VR set on your face. You had a full field of vision, just a small HUD.

That kit box would actually be perfect for my needs as this is a hobby I only visit occasionally or when needed. It would be great to have something I can easily store.
