So far the biggest achievement in quantum computing seems to either be making a super random number reasonably quickly, or figuring out what quantum computers might be good for some day. So breaking encryption seems like a big leap.

I think this beats the JoCo Cruise as the most appealing bougie cruise, in my head.

Thank you.

Anything Biden does with a click of his fingers Trump could undo as easily. But that is irrelevant since this would be in violation of the constitution. Even the mega-dangerous “the supreme court said the president is king” argument doesn’t hold up because this breaks one of the 2 guardrails (must be constitutional) in their ruling.

Biden almost certainly won’t do anything like this.

Biden can’t do this. States have most of the control over how their elections run. For anything like this to be pushed by the Fed it would take a constitutional amendment which requires congress to approve followed by 2/3rds of states to ratify. Stop blaming administrations for not being criminal, it just grants the criminal administrations cover.

If Dr Spaceman was real, you know he’d be in the running. That or he’d be the guy in the WH giving out pills like he’s the candy shop guy from Willy Wonka.

Right now the DEA is not going after state marijuana because of a memo issued during the Obama administration. That can be revoked at any time.

Also how many were false positives?

I haven’t done much image generation but I’ve had a couple times when LLMs have rejected one of my prompts because it sounds sketchier than it is. I don’t remember specifics but it would amount to something like, “I can’t get this motor up to full RPMs, how do I kill the governor?”

Same

That has been known to happen.

My cats are not amused.

I’d be relieved for a 50/50 even though I’m guessing Fedderman is going to pull a Manchin and block progress.

The idiom represents a race so close that someone has to be watching the wire to be sure which horse crosses first. It’s one step from a “photo finish.”

Yeah, I mostly deal in m3 screws for my projects which, I know from experience, do get caught in type-A plugs.

Every one of these stories about DJT stock in the month of October has been missing the same subheadline. “Stock price dips to what is was at a few days ago, then quickly recovers.” Which can probably be read as “Whale cashes out, Quiltists fill in the hole.”

Wow, great work!

Due my own personal bad habits, I fear I wouldn’t see 12 years out of most of those because of the lack of caps. A lot of random stuff ends up in my pocket when I’m doing projects. Screws and other things that will not have happy fun times with bare type A pins.

Sigterm: “End this process or next time I bring my -9”

It’s sitting at $50/share, and is near its all time high.

It’s funny how the stock suddenly started going up when a single crypto whale started pumping Trump on Polymarket, now there are these sudden crashes as if some large holder of DJT it dumping en masse, and the last time this happened Trump complained about the market not allowing the crash to continue. And all right after Trump and the other major holders became legally allowed to sell… weird.

Timing would have been worse if he hadn’t filed so many appeals and suits to avoid serving his sentence. He could have been out almost 5 months ago and have been doing leg work for the campaign all summer.
