Who do the weather folks spend 1-2 minutes telling us what we know (yesterday/current) and 30 seconds on what’s coming up? Spend more time on today/tomorrow and the future radar so we can plan. #cowx
I’m old enough to remember when the Intolerant Right complained about supposed ‘cancel culture’ from the Left.

I agree. Windows should be much much more critical of the default set of apps and tasks. Like the MyPhone.exe thing. It's pure junk for almost everybody. But it runs by default. Even if it's really not a performance drain.

The problem should not be seen as debloat scripts breaking things, it should be that they are necessary in the first fuckin' place
If Windows didn't cause the cleanup need right out of the gate, we wouldn't have a problem

Say what you will about James Corden, but this was amazing.
I’ve been pretty clear that, while I don’t think we need a ban, something needs to change to address some of the security concerns with TikTok.
The RESTRICT Act isn’t it.
Even if well-intentioned, the language here is far too broad and leaves the door open for abuse. 1/2

Since Congress will not address school shootings, at some point, we need (to continue) focusing on securing schools and the entire property.
Doors (especially) glass cannot be the only barrier to entry. There needs to be a secure perimeter as well.
Wow.
This goes beyond the standard social engineering, phishing, gift card requests that all #infosec folks see daily.

Maybe I’m old fashioned, but it seems like the wife of a sitting Supreme Court Justice raising over half a million dollars to wage a culture war on half the country should be the leading story everywhere.
It should also be disqualifying for her husband to sit on *the* Court.

A little-known conservative activist group led by Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, collected nearly $600,000 in anonymous donations to wage a cultural battle against the left, a Post investigation found.

Only in America. A child weeps on a school bus leaving the Covenant School after a mass shooting which claimed the lives of three elementary students and three adults. This is the cost of America's obsession with guns, and that cost is unacceptable.

CODM was trending on my timeline because they will phase it out in favor of Warzone Mobile. Every video I've seen of WZM looks like a shitty LoFi version of CODM BR.
Hope I'm not wrong, but WZM doesn't look all that appealing in gameplay or graphics.
This law pushes care entirely out of reach for trans youth in the state — but the fight is far from over.
We'll keep fighting until Mississippi and every other state is a safe place for children to be themselves.

FTA - Taken together, the changes in the House bill would put White, conservative state officials in control of much of the criminal justice system across a significant swathe of Jackson ... more than eight in 10 residents are Black.

I think this is a history lesson that many Republican legislators need to see. Not sure that upon seeing it they’d have the courage to do what is right and what most Americans want done for fear of what the minority might do. The real work begins with those that vote for them.

Esther Crawford slept on her office floor to deliver for her company but was still tossed out like dirty bath water. Don’t know who needs to hear this, but live for yourself and not any institution. Your job won’t ever love you.

I've seen a lot of people jump on Marjorie Taylor-Greene's comments about needing a national divorce. Based on other (seemingly unrelated, but not really) events, this is way more complicated than "We had one civil war already." 1/n

Extremist politicians are eying cuts to Social Security under the guise of reducing the deficit—even though, by law, the program adds $0 to our national debt. I used my whiteboard to call out this dangerous lie and stand up for the millions of Americans who rely on the program.

Especially southern Alabama right now. This storm isn't playing games.
Rather than 6 Rs - the Dems need to find a RINO (like Sinema only on the R side) and elect her/him speaker. Not a hardliner, not a partisan hack, a true bipartisan/moderate conservative with a proven history of doing what's right for the country that happens to have an (R).
