It’s called a LTS (Long Term Support) builds versus the current build. There is even sometimes ELTS (Extended Long Term Support)

Wake me up when CNN anchors start referring to Taiwan as “West Hawaii”

Why not both!

No country takes action based on moral grounds. They only take action for their self interest. This is international relations 101. Sometimes these align! Sometimes… not so much.

What Taiwan has done is made the “good” outcome (Taiwan remains free and independent) align with the US’s self interest (having computers and a tech based economy).

The US will always exert power over Taiwan, so will China. That’s just what great powers do. However, China doesn’t need to threaten an invasion to do this. There is no reason China can’t relinquish their claim on Taiwan and just build a casual trade relationship with Taiwan.

but we expect to produce “thousands upon thousands” of fancy new drones?

I think Taiwan can absolutely help support the US in producing thousands upon thousands of new drones.

Yes. Defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion that threatens their sovereignty. One that is continuously threatened by China and one Taiwan actively prepares for.

Imagine using a cat for target practice at work and not getting fired.

Baby steps. If things are less bad for 4 or 8 years, progressive policies become more palatable for people. This gets you closer to your ideal state.

Who will replace her if she suddenly passes away because shes 84? She should be ensuring the party can function without her. She should be spinning up the next generation of leaders before it becomes critical. We shouldn’t have to Weekend at Bernie’s politicians in order to keep the government from collapsing.

It’s the same with Biden.

(2) How is *checks notes* healthcare for inmates something we have to debate about? If you are incarcerated your well-being is the responsibility of the state. The government has to take care of you because you don’t get a choice in being there.

Is the 271 page document available anywhere?

I like the imagemagick .desktop file that is always created when you install the package. It opens up a really terrible and dated paint-like program that no one ever uses.

someone had to leave to bail out a friend who found an open traffic box and started playing.

Tech inclined raccoons

Don’t worry, the federal government will bail them out.

If you want to see the Flintstones R34 image you have to the crack the file yourself.

The apolitical thing would be to not have chants to jail someone at a rally.

I mean, it’s a political rally. Wake me up when a judge assigned to one of Trump’s many cases shows up and starts chanting.

If the Dems start doing Trumplike shit because he did it first

Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez got convicted on bribery charges. Democrats dropped him like a bag of rocks. Would you say the same thing would happen if a pro Trump senator was indicted?

I get what you are saying. It could push us down a path where political enemies are locked up after they lose president elections, but I don’t think that is the case.

(1) Jailing Trump isn’t a major taking point from politicians. I think Democratic politicians present the prosecution of Trump to be a good thing especially regarding the Georgia and Florida cases, but they typically present his felony conviction as the goal. “Lock him up” typically isn’t a railing cry which makes this article newsworthy.

(2) Trump is unique. The Florida and Georgia cases ARE notable. Holding onto state secrets come with a high legal burden. He fucked up. You can’t pressure Georgia officials to find votes for you as President. He fucked up. I’m happy having courts investing that.

I expect if Trump actually got sentenced it would be like 8 months probation.

I am one of those assholes. Once the DNC formally endorses a candidate I’ll donate to their campaign.
