remember that 10c goes toward funding a fascist regime.

I've heard of those famed supernovae that were visible with the naked eye in the middle ages, and I've always wished I could see one too in my lifetime.

I might just be lucky before I go nova myself.

I think anyone saying that the shooter clearly belongs to one party or the other at this point is lying. And I've seen plenty of it on both sides, including you, right now.

If you can't see the shooter is FAR LEFT...then you are either willingly blind or not listening at all.

His notes, his relatives telling his history, FFS he's fucking a gay furry guy trans.....

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck....

They don't need AI for that. Teams - and pretty much all Microsoft products - are honeypots designed to collect data.

Well, no so much "honeypots" in the case of products that employees are forced to use at their workplace: they're no honey needed to attract them and get them to give Microsoft data. If you disagree with Microsoft's privacy invasion, you lose your job.

That's the genius of Microsoft's particular brand of invasiveness: instead of convincing individual people their products are good enough to relinquish their privacy for (Facebook), or convincing a large part of the internet to let them sneak in their trackers (Google), Microsoft convinced the bean counters at most companies to install their spyware and ram it down the throats of people who need to make a living. Disgusting...

Anyway, the AI thing is just the turd on top of the shit cake.

That is a good post except for one thing. Charlie Kirk's killer isn't "left"

I guess you haven't been watching the news for the days AFTER the shooting.....this guy might have been raised "right", but he left that awhile back, was shacking up with a furry, trans guy....and both had pushed back on their families showing extreme hate for anything remotely conservative....hell the dude wrote shit in his notes, his texts and even on his bullet casings....

The left tried pushing the shooter was maga right off to bat, but that has long since been disproved.

It's gotten so far that some Republicans are trying to back away because they realize that those laws being used to censor "the left" could easily be used to censor them for the exact same reason. The big fun being to see how the Supreme Court will allow the censorship but then twist themselves into knots trying to deny the same rights if a (D) gets to be President.

The LEFT was ALREADY doing this....especially during the Obama and Biden admins....Obama using direct federal power/branches directory, like the IRS.

Biden, with DOJ going after people they didn't like and directly pressuring Social Media to deplatform people and cut banking abilities... Look I don't agree with recent Reps suggesting HARD to have people lose jobs/censored, but it is different than direct federal manipulations with actual branches actively doing things, behind the scenes, etc....those backdoor communications with Twitter and FAcebook are far different than someone on the FCC saying bad things about Kimmel....but they didn't force ABC to can him....

Never mind the other deaths like January 6

Jan 6ths...really?

Let's see....1 person was killed that day at the Capitol...the lady trying to climb in a window show and killed by a guard.

That's your example??

No...something in people, beliefs or lack thereof have been the problem.

We've had guns freely available in the US for a LONG time.

Remember it's only been since the mid 80s since we had background checks....since I believe 1986 that would could'n't buy a modern NEW full auto machine gun.

Hell, I remember in the 70's, you didn't have to go to a "Gun store" to buy a gun, they sold rifles at places like Western Auto, and your local hardware store.

It wasn't long ago you could order a gun via a catalog and have it mailed to your front door without any kind of background check.

And we didn't have the "mass" shootings like you see today....

There were a few, yes, but FEW and far between...no one was shooting up schools all the time or the like.

We have more gun control today than ever...and the problem seems to be getting worse.

It isn't the guns....it's broken people. What's the coincidence?

More broken and single parent homes. Raising generations to not properly value the human life....

Let's try to figure out what changed in PEOPLE since the 80's and earlier....

A couple hours before my post here Kimmel just got drummed off the air for saying roughly this

No, Kimmel got drummed off the air for lying on air saying that the shooter was a conservative MAGA supporter..."one of their own", long after official statements and evidence have plainly stated the opposite.

He was trying to still promote the leftists lies that came out early on this to confuse the public.

addressing the actual problem of lax gun control.

You know...I have a fuck ton of guns.

And not ONCE have they spontaneously jumped up, aimed and fired themselves at me or anyone or anything around me.....not at home, or in the car or when carrying when out and about.

Guns are nothing but tools with no intrinsic evil or danger.

It's the fucking loons out there getting amped up to take out "evil" people on "the other side"....

Same people that would run a car through a crowd...mass knifing....home made explosives...etc.

Why do you insist on blaming the tool when it is people that are the fucking problem.

Eliminate one tool...and people will...Uh....Find a way.

I'm trying to figure out why the fuck anyone would want to buy this thing in the first place?

If you want something with the power of a phone....buy a fucking phone....no?

So...just how long have you been on the Chinese Comunists payroll?

;)

I dunno....the US used to be a nicer, better place to live a few decades back when we had a bit LESS diversity....like when most people spoke (or tried to ) the same national language, we had a more melting pot mentality...where if you came here you wanted to be an American, and not still a citizen of the foreign place you came from....where you'd come here to wave the American flag, not the one of the fucking country you left for some reason....etc.

When you have 7-8 million people living in a place where 95 percent can't afford to live near their job that doesn't pay very much, you expect EVERYONE to be friendly? The area in and around "the city" has a lot of friendly people who are getting knocked down continually, but once you get beyond the caution that everyone needs to have in a city, people really are friendly. The key is that there are a lot of people who would steal from others because they don't make enough money from their job to live without working one or two OTHER jobs as well. Those who are paid decently are friendly, but with all of the con artists(there's a reason for the dislike of Trump by those who live in New York), people still need to be very cautious with anyone they don't already know.

You'd think most sane people living in a place that sounds horrible the way you describe it...would fucking MOVE to somewhere else in the US, where jobs are more plentiful, cost of living is down, you have better government, people ARE friendly and life is good.

The US is a large country, with many great places to live....plenty of climate, culture and peoples out there to explore and find a happy place to live your life.

Does anyone whose net worth is less than a cool billion hire someone to make a custom cabinet onsite?

Yes, I've seen it quite often....household incomes in the $300K and up range...

It certainly isn't only for billionaires......
