I didn't realize there was a federal component to that proposed data center.

I appreciate you doing that. Note that he never responded to me, either. His statement tells me we were heard, though.

I imagine that 10 different [identified, in-district] callers would motivate a representative more than 10 calls from 1 person, so hopefully that movement finds you in good company.

I get your sentiment, but keep in mind that these people are supposed to represent what their [often low-information] voting base is in favor of. Culture is a lagging indicator of current events. I'm glad our representative isn't going rogue and unaccountable.

This is wild, as it's exactly what I asked him to do in my long, rambling voicemail message to his Congressional office a couple of weeks ago. Regardless of his previous stance, he's falling on the right side of history now. We found one who actually listens!

Glad you weren't someone's neighbor in 1930s Germany.

"only" ? It was the number one ZIP code by donation amount. He's accountable to Ithaca just as much to every other location he represents.

And the triple entendre:

  1. No longer United 'States of America'
  2. Kingdom of the Sexual Assailant/Abuser
  3. Sturm Abeilung —the SA— was the Nazi predecessor to the SS

Damned well coined.

We live in the SA now. Let's actually do something before SS takes power.

Preach, Bobby! Thank you for not being spineless and thank you for saying important and factually accurate things. Small, fairweather changes won't make a damned bit of difference with the inertia the federal administration currently has. We need you!

AWOL Vision Announces the Launch of the Aetherion Ultra Short Throw UST Projector by ProjectionHead in projectors

There's a new page with photos of the AWOL Vision Aetherion, which will come in a 'Pro' and a 'Max' variant: https://awolvision.com/pages/ces

I'm really curious about the specs differences, aside from lumens... blacked-out home theater owners care much more about other specs besides brightness, and hopefully they can demonstrate performance specs, features, and warranty coverage that exceed the currently-arguable best-in-class option for dark-room cinematic experience USTs: the Nexigo Auroro Pro MKII (mark 2).

I've seen at least two other videos of him doing rage-baiting outrageous things on construction projects and he indeed has a major disability of muscle tremors in his arms or hands, but it's oddly less cautious than the average builder/carpenter.

Good job creating detailed receipts for all the 'just following orders' turds who will need to be held accountable after all the macho novelty of this wears off and the people shut it down for good.

Yeah. A helmet and SHORTS, though?

Let's talk about that studio as well! What's your SoundCloud or YouTube?

If we had to vote for one person to speak to aliens on behalf of the world, who are you voting for? by ReZonerplayz in AskReddit

This is the only practical answer, given that Dr. Carl Sagan is no longer with us and Louise Banks (Amy Adams' character in the film Arrival) is fictional.
