You can download an old version of the Kindle desktop app (for Windows) and download the books there, though I’m not sure how long that feature will be available if Amazon turns it off server-side. I’ve personally decided not to buy Kindle books anymore due to their anti-consumer DRM and ability to revoke my books at any time, but I’m also not sure who does a better job.
Comparing what this congressman is doing to what Marjorie Taylor Greene did during Biden’s presidency strikes me as a false equivalency and throws the entire angle of this article into question. While I agree that trying to file articles of impeachment at this point is not productive, it would have been the correct thing to do pre-2016.
That sounds less like review bombing and more like poorly received mechanics and broken promises. Am I missing something here?
Which dolphin model are you running? I’ve installed a bunch of local LLMs and I’m looking for ones that don’t balk at bad words.
Thank you for sharing. This made my day, particularly the note at the end. 🙂
Sigh. Guess that means it’s time to start looking for a new platform. Not that Discord has been excellent in a while, but products always go to shit when they’re beholden to shareholders.
Damn, you did the legwork. Thank you for the added context!
They would actually be affected by these policies directly if they weren’t upper class, and I and other friends of theirs will absolutely be affected for a variety of reasons (public healthcare and anti-LGBTQ+ policies to name a few) and they still don’t seem to care. It feels like they’re so out of touch they don’t see the issue even though it will make a difference to the lives of the people around them. When you’re privileged, it can be difficult to see past the end of your own nose. (And I say that as someone with my own set of privileges.)
A friend of mine, who I consider quite progressive, has literally said similar things to your father. I think your post has actually shed some light on their behavior: they’re upper class (or their parents are). I was so confused after the 2024 election when they said everything would turn out all right in the end and it would all blow over, as if the changes the current regime is making haven’t set us back 50 years, as if people aren’t actively dying right now from Republican policies. Thank you for posting, I think it actually helped me understand why my friend said those things.
Thanks for posting, I just uninstalled it.
According to their website, they sell an SDK to business partners and allow end users to make donations.
I love Abigail’s work and watched her video on this subject at least 3 times, as well as sharing it with others. I highly recommend it as a companion piece to this article: https://youtu.be/v1eWIshUzr8
This article is blatantly transphobic.
What kind of people target the Internet Archive? I don’t have an X account so does anyone know what the hackers’ mission statement is?
Agreed. We have three “large” grocery stores in town: a Safeway (Albertson’s), Grocery Outlet, and a local grocery store which, like yours, is extremely expensive. Our Safeway appeared on the list of divestitures and I think that would probably raise prices as well as change the staples we have available. It sounds like a bad situation all around.
As an asexual woman who loves badminton, can confirm. It’s definitely not a sport that can involve running around in tight clothing getting sweaty.
Not to mention a testimony from a man he was dating in Toronto.
How topical Some More News’ latest video is. My heart goes out to the injured pedestrian and I hope she makes a good, quick recovery.
AI at Microsoft has not been optional for months. Someone I know has a job at Microsoft and has described it as hell. No human guidance or training, when asking questions of higher-ups they’re told to “ask Copilot”, Copilot is used for all internal documentation such as employee records so when they need to find someone’s department they have to ask Copilot. They said it’s like having a full on conversation every time they need a small bit of information that a spreadsheet or database could accomplish much quicker.
