It also won't work since the service has enough precision to know whether you go in, and for how long. The real issue is that mobile phones are continuously broadcasting their location to any device that wants to listen, even if you turn wifi and bluetooth off.

Ah yes, threatening election officials with violence for not steering the election to your desired outcome, time-honored shenanigans.

Whichever editor approved that can go fuck themselves. Absolute shitbag.

It's really disheartening that after a decade of this shit articles are still being written under the pretense that Trump's appeal has anything to do with sensible governance.

Among all the moral problems, there is also a technical problem: we don't know that much about the relationship between IQ and genetics. Not even close to enough. We can't even reliably predict something as straightforward as eye color outside of very simple situations and that is far clearer than the genetics of building and operating brains.

Not only is the genetics that underlie human intelligence complicated, so too is understanding intelligence itself. It's not even clear that human intelligence can sensibly be reduced to a single number, or even a set of numbers, let alone ones that can be used to ordinaly rank people.

The situation isn't much, if at all, better for any of the other traits they list. There may be some useful screens for specific mutautions that result in particular diseases that are well understood, but when it comes to the full understanding and subtlety of more complex traits, human genomics just isn't there yet.

It's my understanding that this would be a pretty low bar to clear.

An excellent question, one of the few in this thread. Not really. But as long as our gas is percieved to be less expensive than most of the rest of the world, and the well paying jobs it creates to build bombs and planes and such continue to exist, it will continue be viewed as beneficial.

Lots of things are easy when you refuse to acknowledge the consequences of your actions. Enjoy the sand in your ears.

I would love to vote for no genocide, but once again, even more genocide is not only on the ballot, but has taken the lead in the last few days. Meanwhile the no genocide candidate on offer here couldn't manage to get on the ballot in enough places to to win and couldn't be arsed to follow the rules in the places they did bother. So forgive me if I choose to live in reality and do the only thing I can that might actually stop the even more genocide guy.

And you think the average American doesn't enjoy being a beneficiary of that system?

Hate to break it to you, but nearly twice as many Americans think we are providing the right amount of assistance, or should be providing more to Israel, than think we should be providing less in regards to their war. That is the direction of public pressure.

If you think voting in a way that helps Trump win is a vote against genocide, I have some bad news for you.

"Hey you know how there is an unbelievably close race between a centrist who wants to maintain the status quo but may occssionally bend to public pressure and an outright madman who want burn democracy to the ground while lining his own pockets and rolling back social progress to the 1850s? You should totally protest vote for a party that doesn't have its shit together enough to even get on the ballot everywhere and has no chance at all of winning. That will show them how you really feel!"

I cannot imagine why main stream American politics doesn't take leftists seriously.

Grow up.

You do realize you're the probelm right? The only vote that matters is the one you make with your wallet, and you voted the subscription hikes are ok.

The entire time you spend sitting at a light after it turns green is solely to wait for those gaps to reappear.

I would call legal and IT. It's outside the scope of my role to accept contacts on behalf of the company.

Since judges are not in the habit of doing things just because they were asked to by a lawyer, especially Republican Pennsylvania judges at the behest of lawyers for the Democratic party, I went and looked up the case.

They used ineligible electors to get on the ballot.

I don't see how it's the Democrats fault they weren't up to the task of following Pennsylvania election law.

So duly elected judges ordered them removed from the ballot.

I can't speak to Georgia election law, but I live in Pennsylvania and the Democratic Party doesn't have any authority to kick anyone off an election ballot.

Well, he certainly understands his target audience.
