Yeah, $15 a month for search is a bit difficult to swallow for me as well.

I wonder if there is another business model, or alternatively a non-profit or foundation could start up a search engine.

He's already likely big into the AI cheating. The Trump bots were highly active yesterday on the only DNC feed on YouTube that had an unlocked chat.

How people perceive this guy as strong is a real head scratcher. He's basically a five year old.

I hope someone comes up with a different search engine without all of the bullshit.

The slimline AV receiver I bought for the bedroom has a fucking blue LED standby light. I had to put a piece of electrical tape over it.

I live in rural Arizona, my presidential vote never counts anyways

Gerrymandering does not apply to presidential elections. It's a state-by-state contest. Your rural Arizona vote for president counts more than my urban California vote.

the Foreign Ministry is gearing up to issue visas to true patriots as soon as September! It's time to stand up for spiritual and moral values!

My God these people are fucking idiots.

True patriots leave their country for Russia, and to flee your country is to "stand up for spiritual and moral values". /s

It was exhausting and the country barely survived it. I have no idea what's in store for any of us if they put his ass back there again.

And get a much better sandwich too.

I think their bread always sucked personally. Like they bake their own bread and it always smells like ass in their restaurants. How is that even possible? Freshly baked bread usually smells good.

Yeah, you got it, it's actually me that's the problem 👍 ...not the people baking up conspiracy theories and cyberbullying a person because she was bad at something she did at the olympics.

That makes total sense: pointing at a problem causes that problem. /s

PS: My questions were rhetorical.

 

I think we're all a bit like the f35...lost and running on auto-pilot.

Some of Donald Trump’s co-defendants in the sprawling election subversion case in Georgia are trying all sorts of ways to fund their mounting legal bills – yet the costs of the 2020 election fallout may quickly exceed their abilities to pay.

At least four have turned to crowdfunding online, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars to pay for defense lawyers. One now has a political action committee to help with legal fees. Another has an ally in Congress vowing to support his legal defense. While another ended up spending nearly a week in jail because he initially couldn’t afford to hire an attorney.

Trump has covered the legal bills of aides, advisers and employees during the House select committee’s probe into January 6, 2021, and federal investigations, including his two co-defendants in the classified documents case, Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira, both of whom work for the former president.

But there is no sign yet that Trump intends to do so for any of his co-defendants in the Georgia case, which alleges that he and others engaged in a criminal conspiracy to subvert the state’s 2020 election results. In fact, Trump has publicly distanced himself from them, telling Newsmax he doesn’t know “a lot of these people.”

The 27-year-old man who police say shot and killed a California business owner over a Pride flag draped in her store appears to have had a yearslong history of posting disturbing — and often violent — anti-LGBTQ messages on social media.

The suspect, Travis Ikeguchi, gunned down Laura Ann Carleton, 66, on Friday, after confronting her and “yelling many homophobic slurs” over her clothing store’s Pride flag, San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus said at a news conference Monday. Shortly after fleeing the store, Mag.Pi, Ikeguchi was killed in a shootout with law enforcement.

A new survey shows that the vast majority of senior executives say would've approached their return-to-work push "differently."

 

In a real shocker for the ages, a guy who has a personal and professional stake in a technology thinks that technology might just be the most important thing there is.
