As long as the US military remains capable of projecting force abroad in defense of America's traditional allies, the US military will be the enemy of the Trump administration.

Hurting LGBT people is fun for the Trumpies, but their overall goal is to wind down America as a world power; and specifically to hand the children of Europe over to Putin's rape gangs.

To be clear, Putin won't get far unless France falls to fascism first, because France has nukes and will remember how to use them for things other than offending Kiwis.

As a reminder, Eich was turfed from Mozilla for joining an anti-LGBT hate campaign (and thus alienating a whole lot of developers, sponsors, and users); and his So Brave browser pushed NFTs and stole money via referral fraud.

exploiting the fact that literacy among blacks was lower

That wasn't the exploit. The exploit was twofold:

1. Whites didn't have to pass the literacy tests. For instance, in some states any man who could show that his grandfather had voted, was assumed to have the right to vote, without having to take a literacy test. This is the origin of the terms grandfather clause and to be grandfathered in.
2. The literacy tests were rigged with trick questions, geometry puzzles, and outright nonsense questions; so they did not effectively test literacy anyway!

Well someone's a scrub there ...

Levitating. Ballistic. Catastrophe. Incandescent. Shivering. Sultry. Sauté.

Congratulations ... you've trained a generation of junior product managers.

First step: Find a country with a navy competent to defend your undersea cables.

If you don't want to be treated the way Stalinists treat dissenters, don't voluntarily put yourself in places where Stalinists set the rules.

Stone two birds with one hit.

Maybe don't use mental health to attack people you disapprove of? The point of mental health is to help people, not to attack them.

Tankies are against good things, because good things make the world more pleasant, and if the world becomes more pleasant then the people are less likely to want to destroy it.

Or an improv troupe, really.

Call me basic, but Captain America has been beating up Nazis for a long time.

Cobain died in April 1994.

The first Slackware Linux release was in July 1993. Debian Linux¹ 0.9 came out in January 1994; SuSE Linux launched in March 1994.

So yes, Kurt could have used Linux.

But he probably would have had to install it from floppies.

¹ It wasn't called Debian GNU/Linux until later; see the 1994 revision of the Debian Linux Manifesto.

As a wise man once said — everybody must get stoned.

Nope. The brown of shit is dead blood cells filtered out by the liver. Those are a potent source of Death energy, and so are drawn up into the new vampire's body as part of the conversion process. What's left in the new vampire's colon is a nearly odorless, dusty gray substance — emptied of both Life and Death energy — that is typically farted out during the vampire's first few feedings.

Case in point, Microsoft's water use shot up from 6.4 million cubic meters in 2022 to 7.8 in 2023, in large part due to the "construction of more data centers."

By way of comparison, the California almond industry uses 3.5 billion cubic meters of water per year. Describing datacenters as using "astronomical amounts of water" is a plain and simple lie.

Moreover, datacenters can be cooled with water that's not suitable for most other uses. Google's Finland datacenter is cooled with seawater, for example.

Zuckerberg has a moral defect. Evil is not a medical problem.

Smoking in public also became rare, and generally people started smelling better without the need for fragrances.

This has got to be a big part of it in two different ways: smokers wanting to cover their own stink, but also smokers having reduced sense of smell!

I trust my city government a hell of a lot more than I trust the incoming federal administration.
