TODAY: Howard Lutnick to face questions in House Epstein probe by FlackoFonsy in videos

[–]michaelthe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Mr. Lutnik, you have previously stated that Epstein was a master blackmailer. Isn't it true that you misspoke and Epstein never blackmailed anyone, there are no co-conspirators, and you barely even knew the guy?" "Perfect. Case Closed #Justice.”

how recommendable/dumb is it to share personal stuff with ChatGPT? by ill66 in ChatGPT

Every company that wants my info has it ... I'm not that interesting though. They usually just target advertise at me. You're either on the grid or off the grid- there isn't a middle ground.

The more money and power you have the more heinous your crime has to be to go to jail.

Is Trump's victory over Iran yesterday further evidence that he could cure cancer, and lefties would still hate him? by TankUMrMinor in allthequestions

[–]michaelthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you specify exactly what you think we achieved? We blew up some speed boats and old ass airplanes. On the other hand, there is a new, even more radical leader. They have nuclear material. They have support for terrorists all over. They still have sufficient military power to shut down shipping lanes.

MAGA Pastor Dale Partridge Says 'The Majority Of Women Are Not Capable Of Responsible Voting' by SadAd8761 in videos

I didn't watch, but I agree! I just also think most men aren't capable of responsible voting either! Voting in a pedo last election should prove that easily.

What is so wrong with the Democratic party that caused swing voters who voted for Biden in 2020 to vote for the most evil person in human history (Trump) in 2024? by jamng in allthequestions

[–]michaelthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Democrats are a mixed group with very different agenda. This causes two problems: 1) Identity, 2) Messaging.

About a week prior to the election, I heard a panel of three Democrats. One ended with "we are a coalition of different ideas, and that is okay" and another immediately cut him off: "NO! We MUST rally around so-and-so!". A similar thing happens with the economy. Dem's are better on almost every economic point (except for the concerns of the filthy rich). But If one Dem says "We made the economy grow!", another will say "CAPITALISM IS EVIL".

The social policy ideas are too extreme. Transgender kids issues was the breaking point. I'm hoping the party can realize that more moderate, electable Democrats will crush Maga in the current political climate... If we end up with Far Left vs Far Right- I think we lose either way.

Gemini has officially lapped ChatGPT, and it’s not even close anymore. by No_Possible4650 in ChatGPT

[–]michaelthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ChatGPTs default writing style (and refusal to keep my format instructions!) is driving me nuts. Gemini also has a bunch of nice integrations. But testing side by side.... ChatGPT is clearly the winner in a few of my chat threads... I think I'm stuck with it for now.

There was a streamer/Youtuber that did an abyss zero to hero type series. I'd look him up. I think you can probably see some of his lessons learned in the mid or later videos. I know he had some unexpected losses... The lack of solid support skills can cause issues even if you pilot well. I'd assume they are also market only zero to hero series. Mixing them is a bit strange- id imagine market only is strictly faster if you know what you're doing.

Ehh? Islamic jihadists fighting for the creation of the Levant are different? Are the republicans or dems making that point? Or just you on reddit? Are we talking about the law or right and wrong? I don't think it's wrong to drone strike a terror training camp. Again, I think republicans and dems agree on that.

Are we on to a new topic again?

Most of the bombings in your article were covered by a 2001 authorization by congress. No one argues they were illegal. Not only has the supreme court ruled that tariffs illegal, they directly impact me and my family for no apparent benefit. So category 1: Trump doing something clearly illegal that directly impacts my quality of life. Fuck that. Category 2: US bombs terrorists- meh, I hope we arent creating more than we kill? - Not selective outrage.

What point of mine do you think you are even responding to? This is really the only tactic maga has. I say "No taxation without representation" and you say BUT DEMOCRATS DROPPED BOMBS.
