Thank you for posting this. I was just about to ask.

There was endless handwringing about Obama hitting that dude with a drone strike. But regardless… are you seriously going to pretend that is at all comparable to what is happening right now? A US citizen, in a foreign war zone, fighting for the enemy vs. kidnapping and trafficking US citizens from their homes in the US to a prison in El Salvador. A country they’ve never been to. C’mon bro.

You should proofread, bro. But I think I get your meaning.

It’s not for you or me to claim or “pretend” that any of these alleged crimes are comparable (unless we’re on the jury). It’s not the president’s job either, really. That’s why we have judges, juries, trials, and all that other boring “due process” shit.

Thank you for at least trying to answer the question. Even though I do secretly believe that assassination is more severe than deportation, I was genuinely asking about the difference in public response instead. I don’t recall nearly as much “handwringing” about Obama killing a kid, but that could just be because I was paying less attention to news during that time in my life.

I really don’t understand why people are upset about due proces now. The US established over 10 years ago that it’s OK to kill US citizens if they’re “terrorists”. But deportation is crossing the line?

Am I missing something on this subject? Or is it just typical political hypocrisy?

What did they leak? How did the author and The Verge decide this article was ready for publication?

So say we all.

I think he’s including primaries and VP candidates.

The delegates/DNC are responsible here, not the media. If they’re all going to support Harris without any debate, the media can’t be faulted for reporting it.

I agree with the sentiment though. Harris has a lot of problems on her record and couldn’t even make it to Iowa in 2020. That she has enough connections to get picked as VP anyway doesn’t mean she has to be the default nominee.

If they ever get this perfected, the next step would be to deal with the inevitable “you actually have the wrong department. Please hold while I transfer you to some other asshole”.

I’ve been trying, but for some reason, it will not recognize my HD. I’be reformatted my drive…tried different drives…I don’t know what else to do.

Maybe this is a stupid question, but as someone that has only ever bought a used car, and as someone that hasn’t bought a car newer than a 2015, do they actually give you a TOS to “read” and sign?

Yet? How would one turn into a boomer?

Real front-line reporting.

Didn’t say it was hard. To be clear…by saying “well enough,” I mean that I don’t have any major problems with it…I’m just no expert. I find that there are two many pointless “utilities” that only slow the machine down. Both of my last two (brand new) computers have had both Windows and Ubuntu installed before adding anything else. There’s actually still nothing on the Windows partitions, but whenever I switch to it, it’s like switching from a car to a bicycle. It’s ridiculous how Windows can be so, so slow “right out of the box,” while Ubuntu just works.

I can navigate Windows well enough for my job, but I’d never choose it for personal use. I’m no Linux expert, but I haven’t yet been faced with a problem I couldn’t solve.

Trump needs to be buried deep enough that he’s not a threat as an independent, and so they can win over some “swing” voters, but they don’t want to alienate his supporters. This is going to get really awkward.
