Yet "killing in the name of" remains unchanged.

Trump admires this. He doesnt see Putin as an enemy, but an inspiration. Same reason MBS was welcomed the way he was at the White House, while people like Zelenskyy are mocked and scolded when they arrive.

I’m new to Android and was gifted a Razr Ultra. Apart from deleting Google apps and using alternate app stores, are these other things I can do to make the phone more privacy respecting? I’m coming from iPhone and I know Apple isn’t the best, but being on Android/Google makes me concerned about privacy.

As I understand it, GrapheneOS is not an option, and I didn’t see the phone on LineageOS device list.

Any ideas? What would you do (besides selling it for a Pixel to install Graphene lol)?

If this was the end result, why did we even have a shutdown? Weren’t these subsidies the main sticking point?

Classic Schumer… hold out for nothing.

They haven’t had a health plan in more than a decade. Trump has claimed since he came down the escalator he’d be releasing his health plan in “two weeks.” The plan is repeal Obamacare. That’s the only plan.

This. It’s all in preparation for 2026 and if needed, 2028.

Ah yes... the guys with masks, guns, the backing of the president, and virtually unlimited federal government resources are a "vulnerable group"

Happy to see a privacy-focused carrier, and it has better policies than any other carrier out there. But founder is formerly from Palantir and there’s a lot of VC money behind it (not inherently a problem, just flagging).

Thoughts?

Yeah it’s not good. And what’s funny is there no details about what it is. They’re not really selling me on what “enhanced” 5G is and why it’s a benefit.

It was a generic settings app notification that said something like “you’re getting enhanced 5G with Verizon” and that was it. I clicked it and then took the attached screenshot. No additional information other than that it shares my info.

Just updated to iOS 26 and a few hours later got this notice about “enchanted 5g” for some apps. I had no idea what it was, so I checked the details and saw that it was automatic enabled and shares info about what apps you use with Verizon. If it wasn’t for this notification I would have no idea this was running.

No thanks. Disable that.

Edit: “enchanted” lol. Meant enhanced.

Heading to SCOTUS? Gorsuch & Kavanaugh have been drooling for the right moment to declare independent agencies unconstitutional, let alone Thomas and Alito. That’s 4 votes right there.

Classic SLAPP suit meant to silence/intimidate

I might be in the minority here, and I have lost zero sleep over Kirk’s death, but I don’t really want or need Staples/Office Depot workers to decide what should and should not be considered propaganda, and therefore printable material.

Just print my shit.

First shot across the bow at taking guns away from Trump/MAGA dissenters and political opponents. They start with a group they don’t think will incite too many, particularly the generally pro-2A Americans. Next it’ll be gays, then anyone with any connection to antifa, then just Democrats in general.

I have a Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 12. The other day I noticed both of my USB-C ports are not receiving or sending data. External drives won't mount and my dock won't send signal to my monitor, but when I plug in my charging cable I am still getting power. When I use "lsblk" nothing shows up, even though sometimes I hear the chime signaling something has been plugged in (but it's inconsistent and sometimes doesn't chime).

Both of my USB-A ports are working properly and receive data, so it's only my USB-C ports.

I'm running Ubuntu 24.04.3. I tried to revert back to an earlier kernel in case that was the problem but it didn't fix the issue.

Anyone have a similar issue? Thanks!

Longer waiting time than to buy a gun. Smh.
