Right? Though I’ve often found those statements to be used to imply you can’t vote for the party because it’s a “treat”.

My intended joke was poking at this and it either didn’t come across or really hit a nerve based on the votes.

Do I detect a nuanced opinion. You do realize you’re posting on the Internet about American politics right?

Yeah we’re the freest state in the union as long as your chosen freedom conforms with the Republican agenda.

I guess I don’t see the difference. If you are warning someone with a gun, the warning is that they willl use the gun. Legally that might not always be “terrorism” but the effect is the same so seems like we call it what it is.

I understand I might not be asking the right person but what’s the difference between terrorism and a warning when it involves deadly force?

I’m confused. Did I miss understand your wording?

100 - 77 = 23; 23% < 33%

77 - 10 = 67 point lead

Admittedly the way we talk about a “point lead” is confusing and it’s always useful to look at what the real numbers are and what they actually mean.

True. But that is based in logic and the assumption that laws follow strict “rules” and well…

That doesn’t exist in the mobile nightly.

But honestly that’s no problem and I hadn’t noticed because I just pin things to the new tab window.

Read the headline and thought “there’s a catch…”

Finally got around to reading the post and Microsoft is very politely saying “we’ve completed stealing their shit now. Don’t know why anyone would want it, use ours now. You can have it though.”

Thanks I guess? I’m glad it’s out of their hands now and with an open source group that cares and can make a difference.

You think it’ll take that long? Seems optimistic.

I think you got my point without getting my point.

Bidens Trump’s kryptonite. He can’t stop talking about the guy. This donald dump stuff is perfect. He needs to stay on the trail and keep Trump off message campaigning against the wrong candidate.

Misread the summary to say data driven delusions and that seems accurate.

Being as this is very similar to the apple epic legal fight that epic lost earlier this year, I doubt apple will make a deal. My understanding is that patreon can cave, choose to pay 27% commission, or make their own store.

Though skimming the news around epic’s attempts to make a store, you “can” make a store in compliance with EU and UK laws, but apple made it kinda impossible to actually do and epic is fighting it in court again?

So patreon seems to have read the lay of things and said I guess we just have to make the best of a shitty situation and communicate everything to try to limit the pain.

It’s almost like apple feels like they have the power to do whatever they want because they’ve created a market where they don’t have competition…

Not mine either but I met him once in a hotel lobby. He was very nice to the group of high schoolers and came off as a decent person but that may have just been him being good at his job.

I always felt watching that election that he was pushed to the right and out of his comfort zone by the state of his base and even though I didn’t want him to be president I felt a little sorry for him. He would have made a better president than a lot of other Republicans.

Surprised consultants are pushing the latest fad? No it’s what businesses want to hear.

Concerned they’re pushing the bubble? No more than the rest of it.

Worried a machine will be lying to me about timelines instead of a person? That’s innovation for you I guess.

Don’t think half the comments understand what the Chromecast is…

Interested in finding out more about fcast now though.

I would hope so but I wouldn’t put money on it.

Well if the 11th is quick, Trump still appeals to SCOTUS and we’ve seen how they drag their feet for him. And even if they didn’t, the case probably wouldn’t get far.

If you’re hoping for this to affect the election at this point, I think the only thing to hope for is some bad rulings that get sensationalized as an October surprise to remind people what it was like last time he was in office.

With the current SCOTUS, appealing to 140 years of history still feels like a gamble. It feels like they’d throw out 1000 years of history and explicit wording from the Bible if it benefited Republicans.
