No, he concluded that in 2024 when his not-democratically-selected candidate, a correctly-colored woman whose political career began with blowjobs to a very powerful West Coast mayor - a last minute "fuck you" by Mr Biden to the party that abandoned him - got whomped by an odious, blowhard NY property developer whose multi-year vilification 2016-2020 turned him from a publicity-seeking opportunitist into a hardened "opponent to everything leftist", made fantastically easier by the lefts own purity-spiral politics, driving even moderate leftists and EVERY SINGLE US DEMOGRAPHIC ASIDE FROM WHITE WOMEN to swing their votes rightward.

This just gives him a chance to complain about it again.

You definitely need to step away from the things that use data centers (social media, chatbots ...).

Well, why not? It's mainstream now to dabble in sympathetic magic. "If I dress like and pretend to be that sort of person, then I am that sort of person! And everyone else HAS to agree!"

Honestly, cryptids seem rather mild by comparison.

Good luck on the June launch, and best wishes for a successful mission!

In this case, the prime manager, the mayor, had just been replaced inthe election.

Actually, management was blamed left and right, the audit helped force the contracting companies to eat far more of the cost, etc...
Trick i failed to mention, it was the NEW incoming mayor that ordered the audit, and less than 1% of project cost to date.

Never going to say that we can't optimize something better.

But let's get real - the engines have got insanely more capable. We can do things with just CSS now that it took reams of JS to do before, if you could even do them.

But -- we can do that because the browser engine is now capable of it.

He'd just leave the same day though, being able to lift that burning cauldron with no pain ...

Yes, you can shoot yourself in the foot with a gun.

You can also use a gun as an excellent tool for security.

I'd recommend the latter, lol

Or we could use the less emotionally charged word, the one that normal people use, which is "use".

I looked at a waterfall project where the mayor ended up spending $3M to have an audit done on the current state of a project that was way behind on time and way over budget, only for them to come back and say that it'd be cheaper to burn all the effort to date and start fresh.

XX = ALWAYS female. No alternative. If you are healthy you have a womb and can bear babies. They are intrinsically connected. You have large gametes.
XY = ALWAYS male. No alternative. You cannot ever bear babies, no matter how healthy you are. You have small gametes.

If they ever dig up your body, this is how you will be identified. Your feelings have *nothing* to do with the matter. Nor does your sanity. They will 100% identify you according to the actual, empirical physical characteristics that make you male or female (or a genetic sport of some sort).

That you keep repeating the delusion just makes you delusionAL.
No matter how many times you repeat 1+1=3, it's still not true and never will be.

Facts > Feelings.

If you have XX chromosomes, you're female and thus a woman. Cutting off your tits or bolting on a Frankenphallus just makes you a woman with surgical alterations.
If you have XY chromosomes, you're male and thus a man. No amount of makeup, women's underwear, or stripteasing in front of children will change that.

Anything else is an aberration and, like a one-armed person or someone born without eyes, recognized defective. It doesn't make them less human, but the idea we should just pretend that's normal is a weird delusion.

Steve must be so proud.

lol okay. I work with a bunch of website clients and multiple hosting companies. We use systems that lock out by individual IP address all the time. E.g. 5 failed login attempts from the same IP address; that address gets blocked (for X hours).

It's not pointless at all; it works well. It's not a panacea - nothing is - but it's a nice layer.
