I do find it somewhat funny that after suffering severe brain damage, Republican ideals became appealing to him. It says a lot about the rest of the group.

So what’s their justification for suing to block this while allowing the Texas Legislature to do the exact same thing? Obviously they’re full of shit, but they always try to put some sort of spin on things.

Utter perfection

This needs to be a gif with the lip lick to get the full effect.

Seems very on-brand for Louisiana.

Because they have in their possession as evidenced by the fact that they’ve released unreleased emails. There’s also that whole stretch between 2019 when Epstein was arrested to January '25 when Trump took office that they were in control of the FBI and DOJ but chose not to release any of this material for some inexplicable reason.

“How do car get pregunte?”

Mitch McConnel is the one who added that provision and Rand Paul wants it removed.

How is it possible to have a 90MPH police chase down I-5 and I-405 at noon through LA and San Diego? Every time I’ve been through there it’s bumper to bumper.

If you want to be even more outraged, I believe this “brave defender of the sanctity of marriage” has been divorced 4 times now and is also a “born again” Christian meaning these are, to her, newly found beliefs that she’s trying to force on everyone else while she doesn’t even abide by them in her own personal life.

They even slipped into the bill that any senator who was investigated by the DOJ under Biden will get a $500k payout from our tax dollars. Schumer and McConnell are probably popping a bottle of champaign together right now.

This is the simple explanation. Corrupt individuals in positions of power using their power to engage in more corruption.

What’s ridiculous are the claims that this is some 4D chess move that will reveal some indeterminate major benefit for us at some indeterminate point in the future. That these people are all good with good intentions simply because they belong to a specific private organization, and that if things appear to contradict this, it’s only because we couldn’t possibly understand their big brain moves. Anyone who’s been paying attention can see right through this farce.

Same. For most people in our space, a Dell Optiplex micro is more than enough horsepower (except few expansion ports). There’s no reason to be running a legacy server consuming 2.5kW just to host some movies or store your camera footage.

Argue on the merits not the source. Like would you be more inclined to believe it if it were Fox or CNN talking about what “experts say?”

You really think one of the stars of The Avengers is lacking in resources to get a response from police? What is ICE supposed to do in this hypothetical scenario anyway? Deport her based on the word of a single individual who happens to be a celebrity?

But Immigration enforcement against non-citizens actively committing crimes is what every other country in the world does.

So in every other country in the world, immigration enforcement officers get to play judge, jury, and executioner and kick people out of the country based on their personal feelings and personal take on a situation? What nonsense.

I don’t know how much of these allegations is true but I’ve always gotten weird vibes from the guy and had a strong dislike of him and his roles. Another actor like this for me was Kevin Spacey and we all see how that turned out.

The same thing George W Bush did at the end of his term too.

He’s just doing what Republican administrations have had to do over the past 20 years and bribing people with cash payments right near the end of their term after wrecking the economy.

$100 is actually a great deal. I had a bunch of shucked 8TB WD EasyStore in my media server previously, bought between 2018-2023, and I think the best deal I ever saw during that time was around that price. Around $12/TB was always my benchmark for a great deal on some drives.

I’ve been buying refurbished drives from ServerPartDeals and looking at my invoice from March versus now the price of the same drive has gone up 10% from $180 to $198 (Ultrastar HC530 14TB)
