Self programming AI, autonomous/semi-autonomous robots, cars, and trucks, dark web. 📵🔌 So living off grid in a tribal commune with a bunch of like minded luddites is sounding better and better. Don't apply for membership unless you've got some useful skills, like growing food, healer, builder . .😏

And thirdly, most importantly, there are the people. Food and water are delivered to our soldiers, who spend weeks and months on the front line, using drones equipped with Starlink. Has the speed been fully restored to its previous level? No. Is the speed being restored now? Yes,” Zelensky added.

MAGA and pro-Trump bots pushing Ukraine to surrender to Russia just three weeks before the US midterms suggest Trump's pro-Russian faction fears losing Republican control of Congress. This looks like a last-ditch effort to secure concessions for Moscow before its political investment loses leverage.

Eventually, somebody is gonna rollover on this whole bag of tricks and spill. Maybe to stay out of lockup, maybe out of spite, maybe a pang of conscience (unlikely). Whatever the reason, and I'm sorta surprised it hasn't started yet, once the floodgates open the rats will scramble for high ground.
The Kimberly Guilfoyle situation could get interesting quickly. Probably the reason she GOT the Ambassadorship is to keep her quiet while Jr looted things. She knows a good deal of incriminating shit. edition.cnn.com/2026/10/11/p...
Yeah . . Grassley may not be super bright in the sense of having an expanded worldview where he realizes his responsibility as a US Senator, and therefor a person of note who should be advancing humans as a civilization - but he is cunning when it comes to bastardizing the system for his benefit.
The morons are running the show, and thank God not for long. Grassley under the gun over hidden docs behind botched attack on Jack Smith www.rawstory.com/grassley-jac...
Worst.President(s).Ever. They are not even good at being bad, they are just plain really terrible human beings seriously lowering the collective state of civilization through corrupt incompetence and singular levels megalomaniacal selfagrandizing greed and narcissism. Humans are our own worst enemy.

Energy experts found that the first shipment of Russian diesel President Donald Trump touted as a price fix would keep the United States supplied for only a matter of hours.

I don't think we'll ever be done with the "I fucking told you so's." The Food Research & Action Center reported that these changes would weaken safety nets and worsen food insecurity for low-income families: frac.org/blog/project...
Polls say this is a flippable Senate seat, and it would mark a real change in the Senate balance. Dr.Andrews brings a modern educated political perspective, not a rubber stamp propagating a continuance of the elite ol' boy (girl in Grahams' case) closed pol network. Donate to her campaign, I did.
Unlike my opponent, I’m not backed by AI companies or data-center developers. I answer to you — and only you. I know we can invest in technology without sacrificing local control, property rights, or our way of life.
From past experience with the firms i worked at, it would be obvious that anyone performing as poorly as DJT and whining as much about it, was trying to get themselves fired. DJT you are welcome to resign. Please. You'll probably have to live elsewhere, but we won't mind.
President Donald Trump mourned the loss of his life prior to entering politics during his rally in Ohio Saturday night, telling attendees he "didn't have to" be "working my a-- off" and could have instead opted to live a private life in luxury.

www.washingtonsun.com/campaigns/ab... White House has instructed the Justice Department to move slowly on any abortion-related actions ahead of the midterm elections. They don’t want unfavorable headlines just before voters head to the polls.

The accounting is in: In Oregon there are 111 data centers. The TOTAL number of people employed at data centers is just 2,630, or 0.1% of the labor force. Those 100 data centers consumer 23% of all electricity used in Oregon. Meanwhile, electricity rates skyrocket as more centers are built.
