Elon Musk publicized the names of U.S. government employees he wants to cut. It's terrifying federal workers
  • What the fuck are you talking about? They had a job doing whatever random thing they were paid to do. Keep airplanes from falling out of the sky, checking water quality, doing accounting.. The right always politicizes government jobs. For example, they under funded the 2020 Census in areas that had left leaning growth. That directly impacts the number of congressional seats.

  • Texas Education Board backs Bible-infused lessons in public schools
  • ᏯᏩᏔᏲᎯ ᏂᎦᏛᏁᎯ, ᏂᎦᏓᎦᎸᎢᏍᎬ, ᎡᏆᏓᏆᏍᎩ ᏓᏳᏟᎶᏍᏙᏗ, ᏂᎦᏓᏆᏂᏍᎩ, ᏂᎦᏓᏆᏟᏍᏙᏗᏍᎬ ᏧᏩᏘᏂᏙᏗᏍᎬ.

    Based on tradition, this Cherokee prayer should be posted in schools. It's only right to follow thousands of years of tradition.

  • X sues to block California election deepfake law ‘in conflict’ with First Amendment
  • The law sounds reasonable. I'd argue that it provides additional definition to defamation laws. Deep fakes are meant too fool people into thinking the victim made a statement that they did not. That almost seems like the definition of slander.

  • How come US third parties never get elected to national level but at the local level they succeed?
  • The only real reason is lack of ranked choice voting. With the current system a choice is made that is either a win or a loss. This creates a binary system of Republicans or Democrats. Ranked choice allows for an automatic fall back. If you vote for a third-party candidate that you really like under ranked choice, this is not a protest vote. If your candidate doesn't win you provided a fall back to a larger party candidate.

  • Adobe's decision to eliminate perpetual licensing for its Elements software has stirred controversy among consumers
  • I've seen an old list of Adobe alternatives, but do you know of a recent one? I prim use Divinci Resolve over Premiere for video but have less familiarity with others. I find Gimp a bit hard to use. Mostly the controls don't feel natural for some reason.

  • China's New Hypersonic Passenger Plane Can Fly From London to New York in Under 2 Hours
  • The one where a part from another plane fell off and got ingested into the Concord's engine? It's hard to see that as Concord's fault, but there was significant loss of life and reputation. But that really shouldn't be characterized as a Concord failure.
