Getting slammed with ads from ChatGPT AND Gemini saying they’re free for students during finals and—whatever you think the good or bad applications of the technology might be—I feel strongly that it is time to consider these companies ontologically evil, on the level of fracking or tobacco execs

I think one thing progressives are underestimating in the NYC mayoral election is the degree to which perceptions of crime and disorder are fueling Cuomo's dominance. It's not just name recognition. A lot of TV news viewers and tabloid readers have been fed a mound of BS about a city out of control.

Now ViaRail goes through the line of boarding people with a scale to weigh people's luggage.
When you think it can't get any dumber.

Airlines have to weigh luggage because it needs to be balanced for flight performance, and too much weight is dangerous. What’s the justification for trains?
"All our managers are leftovers from the airlines business"

Amazing how often our housing crisis turns out to be at the root of our other problems -- in this case, the air traffic control problems at Newark's airport.

it's not actually about flash, installing flash is just a allegory for dying
I had no idea samurai in feudal Japan were that dedicated to troubleshooting Flash

This is also wildly untrue LOL, the Latin for “death” is like the one thing everyone knows

Huge loss for the Post—a giant talent and one of its top writers by traffic—is huge gain for the Atlantic.

Wait, we hate this? Do Americans not like saving money on gas?
Auto stop/start systems in cars turn off the engine when standing still, like at a red light, and start the engine again when you take your foot off the brake pedal.
Engine off = no exhaust fumes.
It adds up to a major cut in air pollution.
And you can guess which areas are most affected.

Glad to see this development. We fought really hard to allow cyclist to legally advance on the LPI and it's been frustrating to see NYPD pretend like it's not established law.

The NYPD keeps ignoring a law that allows cyclists to pass through a red light on the "Walk" sign. Now, someone is making a federal case about it.

"NYC do not put a highway in its parks" challenge.
BTW, going along with this kind of farcically outrageous corruption—in media “analysis”, horse-race commentary, the judiciary, and above all in Congress—should not be thought as some sort of “institutional failure”. It’s a choice. It’s something public players are choosing to accept or support.

I do love David Tennant and his response to this question in the Guardian today.

BTW, Bishop hasn't updated his handle, but he's no longer a congressman. He's the deputy OMB director.
(If he said that people should vote against McIver and Baraka, he would be violating the Hatch Act, but by calling for them to be jailed he doesn't.)

Bishop confirmed as OMB deputy director, will oversee federal budgets
On Wednesday, the US Senate confirmed former Republican North Carolina Rep. Dan Bishop as deputy White House budget director in the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
