If it weren’t real life I’d like to see that go down lmao.
It would also be hilarious to see Trump’s reaction to being taken down by the Swifties.
I hope you’re right. I was definitely one of those people who thought Hillary was a slam dunk and thought Trump would never win.
I’ve not been confident in an election cycle since. I want to be optimistic and say Trump will sink himself and that we will all have the satifaction of seeing his ass in prison. But, he has weasled his way out of every negative consequence in his life and survived political scandals that would have sunk any other politician.
The dude is a cult.
Can’t say I feel too bad for him.
He should have known this would happen once he agreed that one person could motion to vacate. His only chance was for democrats to come to the rescue, but he dealt them in bad faith.
On the bright side, everyone got to see how disorganized the republicans in congress are. The downside is now we have a crazy religious lunatic with porn-monitoring software on his phone as speaker of the house.

Idk, but you would think they would have invested in a better system, especially because they’re handling sensitive data related to people’s health.
I wonder, does HIPPA apply to data collected by 23&Me? I would imagine so because it’s health related.
[…] about 5.5 million people who opted-in to 23andMe’s DNA Relatives feature, which allows customers to automatically share some of their data with others. The stolen data included the person’s name, birth year, relationship labels, the percentage of DNA shared with relatives, ancestry reports and self-reported location.
Well, that’s just great.
The article also says that hackers were selling the data for up to $10 per account.
Interestingly, 23&Me also just updated their terms of service a couple days ago too.
Incredibly shortsighted. This conflict has no easy solution and everyone involved wants Biden to take their side.
The trouble here is that the democrats coalition has stakes in both sides. This entire conflict was practically a gift to the republicans.
Account and platform support.
Right now there are no apps for kbin. There was one (Artemis) that was in development, and the developer had expressed early on that she was open to making a multi-platform app that supported kbin and lemmy.
I do not know if that is still in the cards as there has not been an update on Artemis for a while now.
Investigators have found some sort of suitcase or briefcase on-scene, sources told ABC News. They are treating it as a possible explosive device as a precaution and the bomb squad is handling the package.
Right now, the situation is very fluid with FBI at the scene.
To the surprise of no one here, they are continuing to make reddit worse.
Well this makes me sad lol.
The game is still fantastic, but a well-done DLC is always welcome.
Wishing her the best - at 72 years old, she does have a heightened risk of serious illness. She’s vaccinated though, which increases her chances the symptoms will stay mild.
There is truth to this. But, Reddit’s drama also put the spotlight on the fediverse and the need for alternatives to Reddit in general. Personally, I can say I did not even know it existed. Over the last ten-or-so years, Reddit really did develop a monopoly on forums. The progress we have seen with Kbin, lemmy, etc is because of their heavy-handed and poorly executed crackdown on third-party apps.
But still, you are correct that the fediverse was not yet a full-fledged alternative to Reddit in June. Many lemmy clients, such as Memmy or Mlem, were not ready yet. And most promising Kbin client, Artemis, is still in beta as well. Even Kbin itself is still technically a beta (not that I don’t love them both lol). Had all of these been ready in June, then I think the Reddit exodus would have been much more dramatic and impactful.
I think we need to give it a bit more time. After all, Reddit didn’t get huge overnight either. So long as we keep posting and commenting away, and create environments/communities that are welcoming, we should be able to eventually grow into something that can rival Reddit.
This is going to be a real problem for the actual trial, especially if they deliver a guily verdict (I say if becuase Trump has never faced the consequences of anything in his life).
Right. I have to wonder if this was really a mistake, though? With a case this high profile, I would expect them to be extra cautious.
Of course, mistakes do happen.
I am not surpised. I will, however, be surprised if he faces consequences.
Hi @ernest!
First off, thank you for all your hard work! Kbin is awesome.
Secondly, thank you! I cannot speak for other abandoned and neglected magazines, but we really appreciate your help. @theinspectorst and myself have been working hard to find our moderator to no avail.
Would there be anyone else in addition to @ernest?
The last I heard, he finally got some help developing Kbin. Would they we able to assist?
I know Ernest is absolutely swamped with work. The number of times he must be tagged for help must be staggering…
Looks like the enshittification is about to get even worse than it was. Perhaps we might see another exodus to lemmy/kbin once this happens?
