So far I've seen that at least one troon is going to be sent to Congress.
Gunshy about specific states. Once Harris had at least a 2pt lead in VA they immediately called it for her. They held out on PA and GA (where he had 2-3+% leads) until after I went to sleep.
I'm still holding fast on a 5-10% lead win for Trump, as similar to the prediction I made 2 weeks ago (https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/199OKVMvrz/x/c/4ZFBzR5N1sY)
He will win but not by a significant margin.
No shit it should be an actual holiday, allow the wagies to vote and purge their masters.
My understanding was that the bulk of complaints were that blocking someone now means you can still see their tweets. If it means those you block can still see your tweets, then I don't see a problem.
Make a private account
Rendering the whole point of being on Twitter useless. ┐(ツ)┌
I don't know why that stupid feature is repeatedly suggested.
Twitter's version of blocking has always been a problem because it leans towards the idea that you're blocking someone because they're harassing you (mods don't have time to punish everyone, the site is terribly huge) or are offensive to one's tastes (nebulous bullshit). The changes Musk et al are forcing doesn't do much to improve it, and sort of breaks the idea of allowing users to regulate their own interactions with others.
Blocking should be some mix that allows curation but doesn't deny the rights of other users. If I block someone, I should not be seeing the user's posts on my feed, however the user should still be allowed to interact with my posts. But even if they interact, I should not be notified that they responded, nor should I be able to see the responses.
Doing it tomorrow morning.
I sternly believe Election Day should be a federal holiday. Pretty damn obvious why it isn't, as it blows all the excuses the corrupt tyrants have out of the water.
The problem with Harris is that she shot herself in the foot 3 years ago and didn't know it. She can't stop the count. She made it criminal for her to do so. Now, it's possible that she could break the law and do it anyway, creating a constitutional crisis, an impeachment struggle, and a House of Representatives vote. I've argued this may still happen, but it's unlikely if Trump does well.
Okay that clears it up for me.
I don't know if it's been noted yet, but it's my understanding that Harris, being the current VP, is the one who has to certify the election. (Correct me if I'm wrong on this, seems like a Michigan/Arizona scenario again)
So to me it's a matter of going two different ways.
-
Harris and co. steal it through mail-in ballots and destroying votes/registration, she certifies her own fraudulent election.
-
Trump wins and Harris refuses to certify, basically doing what the Deep State proclaimed protesters wanted Pence to do but didn't.
Be careful, someone might retort with "we couldn't because the military had their hands tied down by humanitarianism".
We're less than a week to election day with some shenanigans in PA already happening. Confirmation bias will snap Hanlon's razor in half.
the ‘glitch.’
This word being used that is almost never used to describe an error in software. "Glitch" implies it was not the fault of the programmer, which is BS because a program does exactly what you tell it to.
the numbers aired were purely “randomly generated test results” with no connection to actual vote counts
Terrible CYA. Either the results weren't randomly generated and whoever made the results had a bias that they baked into the generation, or they had ChatGPT produce the data with some prompt of "produce mock 2024 presidential election results for Pennsylvania similar to the 2020 election" and fed it that. There was clearly no checking of the data before sending out or some asshole went "this is fine", or the one producing the results is also the person sending it out.
There's two options:
Purge the duplicate data (kind of hinky and not that thorough in fixing problems, can cause other issues and may take too long, doesn't make sense for something like this)
Fix the base query that's used for the procedure/job to find and check confirmed vote (robust, solves the issue across the board especially if it's a query that's repeatedly used for a core process)
If the "glitch" (the proper term is "programming error" or "bug") was resolved through the second option, then it should be resolved for the "other hundred and fifty thousand" goalpost move as well.
Should also note back to fauxgnaws said
but the votes are all referring to one vote.
Voter ID here is likely a unique value in a column (maybe an incremented insert). You can't have 29 rows in the query pull with the same ID and the same date recorded, only one of those will get counted on any "Distinct" query of the Voter ID column. (e.g. SE\LECT DISTINCT VoterID, RecordedDate)
There's other ways to commit fraud instead of obviously bad UNION ALL statements.
We're talking government workers here...
Not to repeat what fauxgnaws said, as got pretty much the gist of it.
This straight up looks like results from an incorrect SQL query.
That's a mighty big whoosh.
I guess because Adam made no specific mention of stealing that it needs hinting at?
Initially, it was rooted in political messaging and long form vocal performance, also catapulting the use of turntables as an instrument, but it started to devolve right at the end of the 80s, as it turned into promoting ghetto culture by the big labels. The whole decade of the 90s is what soured it, first making it about violence and drugs, then proceeding to sexual denigration (really started with Public Enemy but it became more commonplace later).
Popularization was going in full-swing around the New Millennium as "artists" like Eminem started to cement its popularity with Whites, and the nu-metal sub-genre of hard rock had incorporated it into vocal performance and rhythms, starting with Limp Bizkit (maybe Korn did it first?). Once the music industry catches whiff of something to be used as a cultural wedge, they put it on full-blast (ghetto rap, nu-metal, Taylor Swift, Jelly Roll).
Yeah, gangster rap is terrible for the nation and a lot of the rap genre has produced trash, although some rap/hip hop is tolerable. You can hear the distinction between the era of Sugar Hill Gang to Run D.M.C., LL Cool J and Beastie Boys. Then Public Enemy and N.W.A. Then Wu-tang Clan, 2pac, Notorious B.I.G and Common. Then Eminem, Kanye West, MF Doom, etc and at that point there's various subjects they focus on.
And why is something that was invented decades ago always promoted like its "cool and modern"?
I've never heard of this, although I don't listen to critics or the Industry anymore. I do remember in the 00s when it was trying to be seen as "cool and modern", as it was fusing with other genres, but it hit it's "artistic" peak with critics around 2010 (Kanye West / Kendrick Lamar). I don't think it's any different than Current Year music trying to promote itself as cool and modern when most genres and pop music haven't evolved in over a decade. Country pop music is trying to be "cool and modern" now too
Had to rack my brain a bit from the title, since you picked one of Rob Paulsen's earlier roles as a means to refer to him. I'm not surprised by him saying it though.
It cycles.
Users post without Sauce because they didn't originate the image -> Intelligent users demand sources -> People start providing sources -> Some bitch that archive./today doesn't work for them -> Some bitch it doesn't work in certain instances (the FBI Crime Statistics Search Page) -> Users get lazy -> Users posting without sauce again
To those that can't get archive sites to work, fix your DNS, use a VPN, or get a better web browser, on God
Who raised Millennials?
thinking
Gen Z and Gen Alpha are not split like this, and kinda just understand the millennials are not to be trusted.
That's the only positive quality they have. Making based memes and throwing around based opinions is not a skill set. A lot of Zoomers are adults now, so the question is, what are they doing now to stem the tide?
Probably became commonplace somewhere post-WWII, as quackery started to finally disappear but other bullshit had to replace it, where pharmaceuticals were becoming the Big Money and nepotism began to take serious hold.
Any soft science, especially ones that require speculation and biases, can probably be thrown in the trash easily.
Believing science that works with the actual, rigorous method depends on how much you're willing to deny observational reality. Some throw quantum physics in the trash, others throw cosmology in the trash. Even then the sci-method path can require decades to get just a "theory" down, and even then it doesn't go beyond "theory", sort of an extension of the Incompleteness Theorems applied to this field.
Same problem Japan has had for over a generation now. No incentive. Combination of laws and economics (zombie economy / weak currency) along with mild overpopulation and cultural decay (both female behavior and easy access to sexual release), there's no incentive for men to get hitched and reproduce. The Diet tried throwing money at people to have children, but it's just not working. Globalists are aiming to take advantage of that and slip in immigration.
One of my concerns is there being enough willing Whites around for it.
I have some faith that at least a few minorities will be on our side if we move to remove the Marxists.
I've figured out the healthiest thing currently is to not post on this forum or forums like this, or even read them, which I was actually doing less but had a relapse as of late.
ultimately-suicidal ideologies
I know damn well that suicide is cowardice and am above that action specifically.
TERFs were going to be pissing themselves regardless. Their misandry knows no bounds.
Trump win meant a return to normal masculinity. Dems win meant half-orcs continuing their invasion of women spaces.
