None of those other things gives them the same sense of power and control as does religious ratfuckery. Therefore, they’re relegated to the ignore pile. Besides, it wasn’t only about the commandments. The bill also included other RRW perversions such as not penalizing unvaccinated students, names and pronouns restrictions, don’t say gay words,, and allowing schools to appoint an “volunteer” chaplain. The funny thing about the commandants is that the words are not found in any xtian or jewish texts. Its the fabrication of the LA lege.
The whole thing was built as a honey trap to entice law suits in the hopes it makes to the corruption that is SCOTUS where they’ll enshrine into law.

This is so extremely true. I’ll give you another example: image analysis.
There are some cases in which it is important to recognize what’s in an image. But one terrible use of AI is culling out a color palette from that image (something a lot of retailers are doing to upsell companion items), which is something trivial to do just by looking at the pixels in an image and quantizing them, or simply having a person input a set of colors as metadata, which is dead simple and takes no GPU server farm to accomplish.
AI is going to accelerate climate change in a way, and on a vast scale, that no one expected just 10 years ago when we were imagining cars as the biggest driver of CO2.

An unnamed Republican source close to former President Donald Trump is confirming that reports of the former president wanting to establish a far-right, authoritarian government in a second term are not hyperbole.
In a recent Rolling Stone article, reporters Adam Rawnsley and Asawin Suebsaeng spoke with several unnamed GOP-aligned sources who are in Trump’s orbit, and they made no efforts to assuage concerns that Trump would drastically reshape the federal government if he took power again. Rather, these sources instead confirmed that reports of a term-limited Trump eliminating all guardrails that would stand in the way of him wielding absolute unchecked executive power and pursuing vengeance against his political opponents are accurate.
“Of course we aren’t f—ing bluffing,” a source identified as a “close Trump adviser and former administration official” said. Another told the publication that, “yes, we do really want to burn it all down,” referring to the more moderate wing of the GOP that may seek to hamstring Trump’s worst impulses in a second term.
Sarah Matthews, who was a deputy White House press secretary in the Trump administration, has since turned on the former president and endorsed his chief rival, former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley, in the 2024 GOP primary. She told Rolling Stone that if he wins a second term, Trump won’t have people around him to curb his most authoritarian impulses, like Generals James Mattis and John Kelly, who served as Secretary of Defense and White House chief of staff, respectively.
“When he first came into office, Trump didn’t know what he was doing. But now, he understands the levers of government in ways that he can manipulate it and game the system. I take him and his people at their word when they say they’re not bluffing,” she said. “The personnel he’s going to surround himself with now, it’s going be a bunch of Yes Men who will not push back on some of his more radical ideas. That’s something that is super concerning to me about what a second term would look like.”
One major element of a potential second Trump term is the far-right Heritage Foundation’s “Project 2025” initiative. A key plank of Project 2025 is the passage of an executive order dubbed “Schedule F,” which would bulldoze all existing guardrails in place for the federal civil service and drastically increase the number of presidential appointees serving in federal agencies from roughly 5,000 to more than 54,000.
Those potential new federal employees are already being vetted by Heritage Foundation staff. Even though Trump campaign senior adviser Chris LaCivita has said that proposals from outside groups are not accurate and that only Trump himself would be deciding on executive policy and staffing, Project 2025 brought on former Trump White House Presidential Personnel Office Director John McEntee as a senior adviser.
Additionally, Russ Vought — who leads Project 2025 partner organization Center for Renewing America — is rumored to be a favorite candidate to be Trump’s White House chief of staff should he win the November election. In recent writings, Vought described contemporary America as being in a “post-Constitutional time,” which means extremely broad interpretation of the Constitution in order to justify far-reaching executive power.
Vought notably wrote the section of the Project 2025 playbook on “the executive office of the President of the United States,” and the Schedule F executive order is his brainchild.
“[W]e need to be radical in discarding or rethinking the legal paradigms that have confined our ability to return to the original Constitution,” Vought wrote in a 2022 essay.

“Well yeah, but…”
But what? The range doesn’t cover your daily commute? Bullshit, unless you live half a state away from your job, then 300 mile should be enough. If you cover more than that in a day, you need a new job. And if you need to travel farther than that, just get a cheap rental.
Maintenance? This isn’t the 1960s, you’re not under the hood every weekend to tune the carb or check the belts. Most of us these days don’t pop the hood for anything more laborious than topping off the washer fluid. And Zod help me, there’s enough evidence on YT and TikTok than most drivers can’t even do that right.
Performance? Well, we’re getting a bit closer to the real issue, but let’s stop here first. Ease off the accelerator, Sammy Hagar, you’re not in that much of a rush most days. And even if you are, a well-maintained EV is gonna get off the line faster and keep up with most cars out there that aren’t street-legal dragsters.
Let’s be realistic, you don’t want an EV because it doesn’t make your balls feel big. Depending upon your age bracket, you either want to fantasize that you’re still a teenager turning the wrench on his muscle car every chance he gets, a street racer who’s turned his mom’s grocery hauler into an angry hornet, or some kid with too much money to burn on a supercar or the “performance” version of the latest attempt by Detroit to profit off the nostalgia market. You want to imagine that every time you put your foot on the pedal just a smidge, you make people down the street lose all bowel control, that if you press a bit harder you can rocket off to Mars on a column of pure noise. If that’s what you want, then go for it, just be prepared to pay the premium for driving a toy.

Lasers could travel theoretically forever since photons have no mass and thus nothing to impart drag upon until they eventually slow down and dissipate. Phasers and blasters are made of particles with mass, but the amount of friction in space is still so low that they’d take ages to dissipate.

I mentioned last night my expectation, which is they’re going to kick this back to Judge Chutkan by saying certain “official” acts have legal immunity, but she’s gotta take the time to weed through the government’s case and determine which ones apply and which don’t. So that when she makes quick work of the stack and pushes forward with a pre-election trial date, Trump’s lawyers can squeal and file an “emergency” motion to have the SCOTUS bench again step in and slap her hand for not exercising “due diligence” or whatever BS excuse they come up with for punishing her for not going along with the plan to drag this shit out til next year.

Arkansas State Police have said that 11 civilians were shot, with 3 of those being fatal. Additionally, two officers were shot and suffered non life-threatening injuries.
