There’s some noise that he won’t do it before Bibi’s visit Wednesday.

He’s definitely veered into imbecility by that definition. My guess there’s some personal snub from the campaign or Trump himself. Remember they were seen dining together in Mar al Lago not that long ago.

I'll say nothing, except that I'll say nothing.

@LuFins-Dad said in Cigars with the boy: Worst thread drift ever. Well, we are talking about the smell of lit dog rockets....

@Doctor-Phibes said in JD Vance and LOTR: I know a bunch of people who are seriously into LOTR and to describe them as alt-right wouldn’t be strictly accurate. In the course of my seasonal job, I've met scads of people who can recite for you any part of Tom Bombadil's songs you'd like. These people are: • D&D fanatics • Burned out English teachers who think America was lost the day Andy Griffith was taken off the air • MFA students who, you can be sure, have their chosen pronouns on their license Their only commonality is that none of them watch football.

The guy who was killed had a history or road rage AND of bringing his gun with him during altercations - per a woman identified as his ex-wife.

@George-K said in Not a cat?: @Aqua-Letifer said in Not a cat?: That's likely the stupidest thing I'm going to hear all month. So you didn't watch Trump's speech the debate? Indeed!

Sadly, we can’t all be as rational and rooted in logic as Trump’s supporters clearly are.

Amazing that one can choose to race recklessly sober and the penalties are less for hurting someone than if you drove drunk but within the law otherwise, and ended up hurting someone.

That’s the photo that will usher out American democracy. I won’t feel safe until that photographer is in prison.

I very much recall enjoying his take on the news more than most pundits back in the... 2005-ish era?

So he was born James Donald Bowman (Donald!). Then when he was 6 he became James David Hamel. Then later (after 12?) he became James David Vance (his mother's maiden name).

Your post is sloppy seconds.

The vote-buying money runs out eventually.

It’s hard to imagine a path more guaranteed to incinerate every aspect of your life than actively creating child porn. It seems like instant social death. He has forever destroyed all of his professional relationships, his family, and his friends. Maybe his mother doesn’t abandon him. But maybe she does.

Some Silicon Valley guy was describing the big tech firms’ AI strategy as ‘buy as many GPUs as Nvidia can make and build as many data centers as they need to house them.

When I was at Nasdaq in the late 90s, they ran the quote system on a unisys mainframe using MASM, which was the assembly language of Unisys mainframes. They were replacing the system for decimalization (remember that?) and ran into problems with the new replacement system. They therefore had to update the old system to keep the SEC and congress from hanging them. They called a couple of old timers out of retirement to do the work. One had cancer and months to live. He made them pay him enough to set his family up for the foreseeable future. They had no choice. They would have paid whatever it took.
