Stupid question, why is Cyndi Lauper stopping? Just doesn't want to tour anymore, voice is going, just tired of it all?
Been with them 20 years since discs. I'm a software developer so when they first introduced streaming and could buffer from only 480p to go up to 1080p WITHOUT stopping please tell me how that is bad. But please use no specifics on the tech they used at all.
'Stealing content from people is cool'? What are you talking about? Sharing passwords across what? I have a family of four and can share FOUR SCREENS SIMULTANEOUSLY. What are you talking about you cannot share infinite?
Why isn't the military helping St Louis with their highest in the nation murder rate? Oh right...
Anything with water, shower, swimming, watching waves. I'm a water spirit for sure.
There are lots of people on here and other sites claiming he has Congestive Heart Failure. Then there are counter claims for other doctors saying don't give a timeline and it's hard to tell. Regardless his body is getting worse and it's not able to be hidden easy. www.instagram.com/reel/DNtdZ5x...
As a developer you are completely wrong on Netflix.
is smart, easy to use and intuitive. The only thing I don't like is they use AWS which is dear leader's buddy Jeff Bezos. But that was probably more of an architect's decision than Hastings. Have been with them almost 20 years now. No one is close to as good as them streaming wise.
Politics aside I love Netflix as a developer. They pay their people well VERY WELL. On average a senior software developer STARTING at Netflix can come on for 250k. The average other places is 30% less and usually around 180k in the valley. They listen to their audience and their software /1
Moskowitz: I appear liberal but will vote to censure AL Green in a heartbeat as well as NOT vote to impeach dear leader. It's all just play with me. When the real time comes to act, I'm on the GOP's side.
Also even if you do have kids it's not meaning that they grow up to be just like you politically.
First thing I think of when he wrote that below. They have more kids. They also have more cancer, more mortality issues, and genetic issues due to them having not being picky about sister brother action or other inbreeding.
It's scary lots of doctors like yourself warn against this and he just ignores them and does things. I don't even understand how his mind comes to these conclusions. I feel we are in a Kleptocracy and every day is another guess what is going to happen.
And more reality. Looks at Democrats in Congress... (do nothing and just shuffle away from the light)
Is No Man's Sky worth it to ATTEMPT to continue a game from 8 years or so ago and update to the latest patch? I got to liking the game more than most people. But put it down for years but then saw the Voyagers update and was kind of wondering. Should I continue or new game it? #NoMansSky
Do you ever think if there was WWIII TODAY the Allies would be considered the bad guys mostly? Out of the USA, Russia, UK, and Israel (Well technically they were formed out of it...). NONE are doing great on the world stage for treating other countries well.
Wait they took over Union Station in DC? What are they going to process people right there now directly? Next up Nazi trains to go straight to internment camps.
We need more than one option though. I see a lot of stuff that is 'podcasts'. Not print, not shows that get on TV. FOX HAS ALL THAT SHIT. Liberals don't even really have anything on AM Radio. People need to start taking this seriously for the vocalization aspect as well as being mad.
I agree Congresswoman. But please, PLEASE when you get back in session I want to see 2 things from Democrats. 1. You vote to IMMIEDIATELY END OCCUPTION OF DC. There in precedent for this EVER. 2. You request over and over the Epstein files. I'm serious as a citizen of your district.
pretending he has these grand ideas when at face value THE MAN IS A FUCKING MORON. He's not just dumb, he's a moron. He speaks at a third grade level and barely makes sense. And we keep gas lighting people to make him seem better. What gets me is other Western Leaders doing this.
censure. 2. How our 'liberal media' is not liberal AT ALL. It's telling within a month or two of the election Meidas Touch shoots up and everyone comes here. Because NO ONE on TV or print in the mainstream is daring going against dear leader. 3. dear leader is patheticly dumb and we keep /3
but other than Crockett, AOC, Sanders, Warren, and a few others. The REST ARE NOT DOING SHIT. In fact when Al Green spoke up some of the chicken shit members voted TO CENSURE HIM! Whenever you see that jackass Moskowitz trying to look clever and clown like, he voted for dear leader and to /2
Let's remember all the non dear leader sycophants left. During the Lincoln Project and running against Trump. And Term 1. This was an in your face attack. And the three things that surprise me the most are: 1. Democrats are just doormats in Congress. Yeah some governors are speaking up /1
Going to be crazy as I looked at leaving the country for family on a visa to other countries in the Netherlands and you need to find a job first then get temp visa. No one not a multi millionaire can just get up and leave if they have a family as well to haul with them.
Well he stole the last one and DEMOCRATS DIDN'T DO FUCKING SHIT TO QUESTION A SINGLE COUNTRY OR DISTRICT. At least if they did they did it in such a whisper no one covered it or saw it.
Well that's a red state so ummm, well umm, SQUIRREL!
You know it would be great if state to state BLUE STATES could have a CDC replacement initiative to use their own funds to fund ACTUAL SCIENCE instead of this garbage.
Also having a new liberal party would help since Democrats seem to just be laying down and hoping it just passes.
Oh no a Congresswoman/man is concerned! Stop the presses!... Anyways(Congress does nothing).
Look at those really dumb people in one room together just kissing ass for a sociopath.
Need some more lipstick to really pucker up to dear leader.
Selling out is gansta though right? I mean we all know a white guy that doesn't like black people is so Kanye 2.0. Maybe he can be another black white supremacist.
to just work a job and live ON THEIR OWN. Rent and housing cost 4 to 5 x's more and you barely make twice as much. So I just have heard it on other sites and am just at the point I want to rage against older people at this point that say this shit lately. It's brainlessly dumb. #Cannotmakerent
Have to admit I am really getting pissed at boomers and this 'kids these days have it easy'. Seriously STFU! I am 47 and have been hearing that when I was young, when Millienials were young, and now on Gen Z. It's NOT EASIER NOW THAN IT WAS IN THE 50'S THROUGH 80'S! People cannot make rent /1
Okay stupid question, this was supposed to be under an immediate 1970's act that was temporary. Is ANYONE FIGHTING THIS IN COURT OR CONGRESS?
What a huge dipshit. I'm sure being South Carolina he has a good chance of winning.
There was an anti intellectual movement during the 90's with Republicans. Fun fact they fought CFCs and styrofoam in the 1980's. And funded MORE NASA research in the 1960's. Once it became entwined in climate change, they decided reality was dumb and oil was better.
WTF are these undecided people in the US still? Hmmm your choices are fascism, or fighting it. Ummm I just don't know, I'm 'not political'. These people are the same people that through not voting gave it to dear leader.
The Democrats need to shout louder and more and it will get covered BELIEVE ME. We have tons of alternate coverage but I see a TON of Congress be silent as a peep. And when they vote to CENSURE THEIR OWN PEOPLE LIKE MO GREEN. That pisses me off immensely. #WeNeedANewLiberalParty
We were 'way empty' guys. Now we are full. So is the military a gas tank?
Give a referendum to have an easy time to find a job and I would be there as a software developer and a wife that is a school psychologist. I have looked at moving at this point and would move if it was cheaper to do so for the family.
Whoever is consulting the Democrats needs to be fired. Every time I hear from the experts of Democratic think tanks they just basically make fun of Democrats themselves and give these weak ass ideas. It's almost like the GOP is funding their research. It's beyond pathetic.
It's a failure of a society to allow this much hate filled opinion nonsense to exist as 'news' that has lead to this. Education they call indoctrination when really it just shows facts and history don't really jive for feel good fascism.
Fascism is expensive! But I mean it's either this or electing a smart black woman, so clearly this is better. (/sarcasm)
The Hill has always been conservative viewpoint based garbage. The right just attacks attacks attacks and never looks into if something EVENT WISE was legit later. They post something today, tomorrow they completely forget if they were completely wrong and just keep doing it.
Should have a fire sale on anyone older than 75 is forced to retire by forced primaries. The Democrats RE ELECTING SCHUMER to leader tells me everything I need to know about how clueless Democrats are now in leadership. They have none and play softball and then go after their own fighting.
Was there any type of smoking or drinking involved as well at night time?
Okay now that #HollowKnightSilkSong is given a date of September 4th. Can I know why someone lied on Reddit and so many people believed them? About two months ago saying the game was scrapped. I feel like this is the age of lying lately.
I still think most nations should punish the US till dear leader is out of office.
Please take Oregon, Washington and Alaska too and form Cascadia.
I will never get that 30 seconds of my life back.
I remember thinking the UK was electing a more liberal side a year or so ago. Man was I wrong.
Still is. Cable minimum packages after initial prices are close to $55. Minimum streaming of say Apple+ only is $10. When you say: "I need to use all the streamers of Netflix, Disney +, Paramount, HBO (or whatever it's called this year), and Apple" Sure then it's more. Just get what you need.
The right runs on lies, they cannot actually do anything beyond making fun of others and projecting.
Well white people ONLY did great things so therefor slavery did not exist and it's just woke nonsense /sarcasm. Seriously that is what is going on white washing Iowa Jima, scrubbing even Colin Powell from records, getting rid of female generals. It's just pure bigotry from the GOP cult now.
Good thing Democrats are barely doing anything talking about it and just thinking they can do business as usual. Aside from Newsom and Pritsker I barely see anything about Congress calling a special session to end this. I guess they are still at a totally undeserved super long break.
#WeNeedANewLiberalParty Remember all these people fighting back are largely ignored by the Democrats and their leadership. They want to sit back in the shadows and just die under fascism. We desperately need a green party or a new one to rise up and have these fighters currently on the Democrats.
Reading this is extremely rare and happened after a meeting on Mexico drug cartels. Not sure if that is rumor or fact as everything lately is hard to believe. But regardless someone leaving early in a term out of nowhere is very bizarre for a joint chief. www.forcesnews.com/usa/air-forc...
And the rest of the Democrats beyond Newsom and AOC continue to be doormats and just stay hidden. Don't show up on TV, don't get the message out. Just hope that if they spam you with ACT blue and talk tough on a funding message, you give them money.
Cuz rich people pay all the taxes! (EXTREME SARCASM) You cannot and I don't think it will happen in my lifetime, but I think in my kids or possibly their kids people are going to want a TOP WAGE set or some form of boogety, boogety, boogety SOCIALISM, That stops wanton greed.
What was the charge, being a black Democrat?
Above second time now: 'You aren't really being legit on the makeup: '5 Democrats, 5 Republicans, and 4 unaffiliated citizens'.' We are going in circles your opinion is Democrats should follow the law, Republicans don't have to. That's why we are in this position.
Can we just form 50 separate countries at this point and call us the divided states of America?
Democrats play by endless rules. Republicans are like a cult at this point that will do whatever it wants without regard to anything. Democrats never seem to get that except for a few governors so #WeNeedANewLiberalParty to change things.
could still vote with the Democrats. But the Democrats made it clear for the last twelve years. After Obama won his second term they did EVERYTHING possible to go away from being liberal and caring and everything to be conservative light. THAT WILL NOT WORK ANYMORE. And they don't listen.
Democrats need to fracture. #WeNeedANewLiberalParty I'm so sick of hearing our only option is Democrats. Why? Either bolster the Green party or a new party and let the Democrats go. Why does a party that cares more about old dinosaurs need to be propped up? You can form a new party and they/1
I keep thinking there is a limit to GOP dumb. But after Gaetz, Boehbert, Andy Biggs, and Kristi Noem it's hard to find a bottom. I mean at a certain point they are making Bush Jr look smart and that is really hard to do.
You were wrong about the makeup of the commission and Texas redistricting. You don't seem to get 'laws' are not being followed and seem to think: "Well Texas magically can do whatever, California cannot."
No shit now when are ICE agents going to be arrested and fired?
Holy Hell I didn't even know this was being made! I must be the only one.
I love how he is a huge gamer and totally not caring who knows about it. Building his own PC too FTW in videos. I feel the same way he is. People are like: "Why did you buy that again on Steam?" Why not it was like $5 on a summer, winter, etc sale.
Nintendo has what like 5 games on it now? And then Mario 500, Mario Galaxy, Mario playing tennis, Mario Kart, Mario does your taxes. And Zelda. After what 8 years they are getting Metroid Prime 4.
PS5 came down in price. Nintendo not so much. Nintendo's discounts are a joke too though. Game is on sale for 2% off! Meanwhile I'm getting games on Steam only a year or two old and waiting for holiday sales of 30% or more off.
You cannot read it states 'REDISTRICTED ONCE EVERY DECADE' NEW SENTENCE 'Usually the year after'. Do you not get what once every decade means in English?
You aren't really being legit on the makeup: '5 Democrats, 5 Republicans, and 4 unaffiliated citizens'. Yet somehow you are ignoring Texas laws and saying they can do it magically but California is wrong? Makes no sense logically what you are claiming. Is it just okay for Republicans to do it?
Nothing in the California law says they MUST do this after a census. Just that they have a commission to do it. If Republicans are going to act on their own under dear leader, I see no problem with the blue states going forth as well. I don't know if Republicans just cannot get tit for tat.
Elections have consequences? What does that mean? You can ignore laws if you are Republican and not if you are Democrat? They are supposed to do it AFTER A CENSUS. This idea they can do it 'whenever' is nonsense. They did this same thing for Bush Jr in 2003 as well.
Stupid people still believe him over their own senses.
What is Texas going to do to California? Tell dear leader they were meanies and did the same thing back so dear leader should send in more troops.
When is California acting though? So far Texas is doing something right now and I want to see California take action now, not wait.
GOOD! Honestly I wish all these fascist abdicating companies could also fire the execs and NOT give them packages when they leave. Instead they reward them for failing as well. Being an exec in the US means you can screw up royally and never feel it.
got = good. My kingdom for an edit button.
wireless charging in the future and it will be very cool to see what we can come up with. I keep hearing that wireless charging is the dream but the amount of electricity lost when transferring is still so large it's not feasible on large devices.
is fascinating what people are working on mostly with doing more with new smarter batteries. The problem I hear and read with others is solar even on the whole surface of something is in itself not powering enough without storage. But, you combine that with faster charging of batteries and also /2
Looked too got to be true and it is. I am more interested though in more of all alternatives of wind, solar, and hybrids to charge batteries. And in turn use those batteries to charge EVs that can compete with combustion. Energy output when you get into electrical engineering, I am a layman, /1
There is a clause you missed: "AS LONG AS YOU ARE REGISTERED REPUBLICAN".
It will be hard to explain to them that many blue states put in more money than they get out. I would LOVE states to run at this point by ONLY what they make. Then suddenly the SE will be having no services run.
Do they just spit in their hands and shake?
So I hear #USOpenTennis is only on ESPN and streaming live TV. How in the world in 2025 can the service be this bad? ESPN is THE WORST at streaming. Honestly you could get a ten year old to get streams and make a better site to find things. HBO blew away ESPN+ with their format for French Open.
I cannot even believe getting mad at a musician for working too hard is a thing. I get mad some artists take 3, 4 or more years between albums and she is doing 1 a year or more.
nearly nothing with a combined voice. I think at this point I got excited with David Hogg and Leaders we deserve but see almost nothing about it. The Democrats really are not fighting in a way most of us can visually see. I see one offs from reps but not much else. #WeNeedANewLiberalParty
I mean I think it's great what you are doing. But a part of me is seeing Act Blue asks for money and never responds back and just puts me on infinite lists I can never escape from. And the Democrats don't listen. I would vote for a turtle over dear leader, but the Democrats are putting out /1
From Russia meeting to tell the administration what to do.
That's a far cry from we are going to arrest you and detain you in concentration camps. Honestly this garbage makes me sick. It's the same thing as the Muslims that would not back Harris because: "She wasn't great on Gaza". You are literally enabling dear leader with this nonsense.
I cannot state this enough. People would literally think someone doing one photo op is the same as a guy using tanks and Humvees to drag people out of their homes at gun point. His stance was LITERALLY you cannot have semi permanent structures on public places. YOU MAY move and keep moving. /1
Welcome to the 'I don't get reality so I want perfection from a candidate'. He LITERALLY supported gay MARRIAGE BEFORE it was decided by the Supreme Court as San Francisco Mayor. So all of this 'errrmerrgawwwd he said something in March so I ignore everything he did previously'. Grow up.
Instead of having some Democrats be fighters. Why not just form a new political party and let the old dinosaurs keep the Democratic party as it currently is?
You mean he didn't impress you when he completely kissed dear leader's ass on TV after he won the 2024 election?
Quite a while. I feel so sad working on code bases in C#, Typescript, SQL, and other languages how much stuff people out there are just putting out there having NO IDEA how it works. They don't get testing, reuse, DRY, or anything. Just are gleefully thinking AI will do it all.
