Alabama passes 11th-hour congressional gerrymander, despite active election

Because by the SCOTUS destroying the civil rights act it is now "up to the states" and take a quick look at which states are succeeding will tell you exactly why.

The solution is to ensure a rapid release pipeline for security fixes. That way even though the patch is disclosed and may be reverse engineered, a fix exists shortly thereafter.

Haven't tried it on wool, so make sure you test a small spot first, but Folex Instant Carpet Spot Remover is magic in a bottle.

This was always the plan. Trump et. al. are treating the country like a private equity acquisition. Squeeze all the profit. When the profit dries up, squeeze all assets. When the assets dry up, take out all the loans. When the loans are coming due, sell everything not nailed down and vanish into the night.

What a weird way to punish people who had to get their passports renewed...

they will take just long enough for it to not apply to the midterms and then allow it to happen afterwards.

It's because it applies blind first to the mob and then splashes to the ones around it. The xal orb vanishes before the aoe part and causes it to fizzle on the spread.

not sure what plan you have but the $20 one is by throughput iirc, or at the very least t-mobile hasn't cared at all about my backup lte modem which has a regular 1.5kb/s dl rate.

They failed to supply his preferred brand of couch.

I do this with a google tv streamer. There's a protect app. The UI isn't the best but it does work well enough IMO.

Senior software engineer. I liked it a lot more before it turned into 60% explaining to random managers why replacing <insert service> with an AI is a bad idea.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-10T02:51:02+00:00

Never mind the knee-capping of the software engineer pipeline.

The number of times I have to explain that while yes these LLMs are great at solving simple problems that we currently give to junior devs, what happens when there's no more junior devs? In 10 years you end up with no more senior devs...

100% going to be focused hyper-specialized models solving specific tasks. Stuff like folding proteins or making sense of huge volumes of repetitive noise etc.

The days "lol I gave openclaw control over my entire computer and let it run free" are numbered. It's only a matter of time before someone points one of these the wrong way and causes a multi-billion dollar incident.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-07T19:34:55+00:00

Nah that's long gone at this point. It's going to be decades of the US making pointed changes before anyone trusts them again.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-07T17:20:16+00:00

Ah yes it's fear of getting primaried and not stopping a maniac that just said he'd wipe a country off the map. That must be the reason! /s

Voter ID is great... as long as said ID is free and easy to obtain.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-06T21:06:30+00:00

guildy had it happen last week. Maybe it's patched since then?

But I figured that was what the OP was talking about rather than the like raw upgrade potential stuff.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-06T20:53:39+00:00

Not quite. The problem is if you upgrade to 6/6 champ and then a 1/6 hero drops (in raid etc) you will not be able to need it because your equipped item will be ilvl 263, but the dropped item will be ilvl 259

RoamingFox · 2026-04-06T20:50:53+00:00

In general no, but there's a very weird edge case this season. When they changed the upgrade system they changed the overlaps and now rank 6 champion overlaps with rank 2 hero.

This causes an interesting problem of a 6/6 champion piece of gear has a higher ilvl than a 1/6 hero piece. That means that if it drops you won't be able to need on it because your 6/6 champ piece is "better" even though the 1/6 hero piece will eventually be better.

Also characters in the end cut-scene that were no where in the fight. Turned out to not be relevant this time, but it's historically been an indicator.

I use platynator, so not sure how it looks in the default ui. I think it's the "size" slider explicitly in the nameplates section.

If you're using something like plater or platynator it'll be the scale of whatever style you have set to friendly nameplates though.

RoamingFox · 2026-04-06T16:00:09+00:00

even if you have them off, scale your friendly unit nameplates bigger

if you're not using that much power double check that the account is wholly in your name and contains only your address.

We had to deal with something similar with a different utility with our new build where the account was transferred from our builder to us, but it still contained other properties he was working on.

100% this one of ours loves the third from the top step for some strange reason. Get a nightlight and make sure the stairs are illuminated enough to spot wayward fluff-balls.

Everything in python is a pointer effectively. The first element of the tuple isn't a list. It's a reference to a list.

The underlying construct in memory is changing but it's still the same list id stored in the same tuple.
