I saw ‘Postcard from Earth’ there. It was fine for a tech demo but nothing more than that really. Left feeling that it was worth experiencing once, but not so amazed I’d rush back to see something else. I guess that’s true enough for a lot of stuff in Vegas.

And they said digital assets would never decay

Well she’s not going to say otherwise at this point is she? Plenty of opportunity to ‘reflect on my choice and offer my service to the country’ if he does step down.

I agreed with this in 2020, but am far from convinced this time around. As much as folks like to bury their head in the sand about Biden’s troubles, they are way more of an issue than in 2020, anyone who doesn’t at least see that is not being honest with themselves or wilfully delusional.

They might still think that even with Biden’s deterioration he’s the better candidate, but he still actually needs to be elected and I’m. It convinced the majority agree any more.

A much younger candidates with centrist tendencies would at least be able to present a vision that is more that ‘I can beat the other guy’ and lay out a vision that, as middle ground as it might be, could get folks motivated again.

There is still time to replace Biden. After the convention there won’t be and a lot of ‘we need to replace Biden’ folks will return to supporting Biden because there is no other alternative. Until then they have an entirely justifiable voice.

Projected they will win 410 in total.

326 required for overall majority.

652 seats - 410 Labour = 242 left for everyone else.

410 - 242 = majority of 158

Yeah, most 3rd person games I like to play with a controller, first person not so much.

I remember the ‘good old days’ of Sun Fire 10k and similar servers. You could replace entire boards of CPU and RAM and the server would keep on trucking.

TIL 7-11 can issue a money order.

Or for an American airline, mostly credit cards, and then some bits about flying.

There wouldn’t be new primaries. Biden’s pledged delegates would be released to do whatever they want. Obviously that has its own share of, small d, democratic concerns, but the better choice if you ask me.

If you ask me what’s absurd is clinging on to Biden against all the evidence. He’s clearly super unpopular, and that’s in no small part to his age.

He must step aside and basically any halfway reasonable candidate under 60 would be in with a decent shot of the job. Give the population something to vote for rather than vote against.
