Could’ve sworn he was deported because he was a ms13 gang member. We even had a photo clearly showing ms13 on his hand above some unrelated symbols. Right? Totally not photoshopped obviously?

Is ms13 like running a bus depot now?

Fuck man the narrative is so stupid it’s hard to even make jokes about it because just stating the facts is already the damn joke.

There’s no way I can handle a phone call of any kind. Honestly even a mildly annoying Teams message would probably be enough to send me off the deep end.

To be fair, I feel like almost everyone I’ve ever met would be too emotional to be president.

We failed pretty horrifically at screening the bullshit out though. Like, god damn.

if you’re pre-born you’re fine. If you’re pre-school you’re fucked.

Good ol’ George Carlin.

Yeah I hate the overt monetization of absolutely everything in general, but charging for optional persistence to their cloud seems pretty reasonable.

Well, that sucks that you’ve had problems, but it doesn’t match up with my experience of using homebrew over the last decade. I can’t think of a time outside that one time they changed the install paths where homebrew has caused an issue.

I went from Linux to a Mac for work years ago. Install home brew on day one and the experience overall will be much better.

The terminal on the Mac is surprisingly good. I felt right at home with it very quickly. Xcode comes with cli tooling to build software without a lot of messing with it and finding library dlls (looking at you, windows)

The window placement philosophy takes some getting used to (see yabai for a viable tiling window solution though) and the key modifiers will frustrate you (though I eventually ended up liking cmd a lot).

Overall though I feel like Mac gets a lot of hate where it’s not deserved. I still hate their business model, and my personal laptop is Linux for that reason, but the product itself is fine.

I love that show but it is kinda designed to be hard to watch. I don’t blame anyone for not being able to commit to it.

"Six months ago, this country was stone cold dead. We had a dead country. We had a country—people didn't think it was going to survive, and you ask a nasty question like that," Trump continued. "It's called negotiation," he added, before claiming he intentionally set China's initial tariff at 145% to "go down a little bit."

The Trump format: say something asinine. Say it again but slightly dumber. Say it a thi—no never mind just the two is good I guess, wait actually say the third thing but start over and actually it’s something different this time. Insist that the person you’re talking to is “nasty” because you forgot what you were talking about. Say a fourth stupid thing.

A bunch of people in California have already lost coverage due to this and claiming fire risk. Fucking bullshit.

I did watch the trial. It looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job, I’ll be honest with you. It looked to me like some people said some stupid things, you know, they were drinking, and I think they said some stupid things,” Trump continued.

Trump has strong “they’re good honest boys who just made a tiny mistake and maybe she shouldn’t have been wearing that dress” vibes.
