It also looks like he's pushing the limits of what we'll let him get away with. Judging by how quickly everyone is rushing to figure out how to comply with these orders, it looks like he'll get away with a lot.

So they expanded traffic to make it slightly more convenient for lawmakers to fly directly to their home states and didn't have enough air traffic controllers to accommodate the expansion.

How much you wanna bet we hear it was DEI initiatives that kept them from hiring enough qualified air traffic controllers? Since we're already blaming DEI anyway.

The action requires federal agencies to review and potentially rescind funding from schools that teach concepts suggesting individuals are “inherently racist, sexist, or oppressive” based on their race or that America is “fundamentally racist.”

They've been going after public media since Nixon. Of course, it would hit their key demographic--rural areas--the hardest, who rely on public media for things like emergency alerts. Not to mention public media is the only source of local quality journalism for a lot of places.

And if you use ChatGPT the data is sent to the United States of America, including the chats you have with the AI.

Who will sell it to data brokers who will, in turn, sell it to China. And who knows how many other hostile foreign entities.

I'm honestly loving seeing corporate America melting down over being undercut by China like that hasn't been the basis of our entire economy since 1971.

They gave it away on almost every platform when it came out, but I still haven't gotten around to it.

I have my qbittorrent container set up the same way, no issues. Only minor inconvenience I have now is having to manually renew my subscription every month because they stopped storing payment information (good!).
