The one and only thing that matters to the mainstream modern media outlet is reactions, because people don't care about news any more, they just want to feel something.

It's not clear that "48.3% who wanted a black woman". It's quite plausible that a reasonable fraction of those just didn't want Trump.
That's fair; I should have worded that bit better. There can be different reasons people vote for/against someone or some thing.

You have to offend more than one person to get (and stay) modded down in
That's not quite true. You only need to offend one person to get modded down. However, if you also provide value, then you will probably not stay modded down. My karma has only been anywhere other than right up against the kap a couple of times in the last... uh, long time.

Pot kettle black, fucker. You never use a nice word where a rude one will do. I answer rudeness with rudeness and I won't apologize for that, people who are dicks deserve dickery.
Right now things aren't at the point where someone can create a viable software product that, for example, an big-bucks "enterprise" would pay for.
Have you seen the garbage big-bucks "enterprises" will pay for? I thought you said you were experienced. If you only know code and not anything about business maybe you should calm down and take a breath here.

I mean have you seen the thing where Zuckerfuck called people who trusted him enough to give him their personal info for facebook "dumb fucks"? You should expect Facebook to intentionally not ban the worst people, if you are familiar with what a piece of shit Mark Fuckerberg is.

Did you mean: converged?
No. It literally wrote it "coverged". Now that I'm at my desktop I can just write it.
Also, the correct word is COVERED so even if it did write "converged" that would have been incorrect. But it didn't. Instead it wrote something that isn't even a word. That is the level to which Google has fallen.

I don't think a woman can be elected. This isn't a statement that one shouldn't be, it's an estimation of the voters.
Adding that 49.8% of voters did re-elect a man found liable of sexual assault, who undeniably, obviously, constantly lies, over the 48.3% who wanted a black woman and 36% (90 million) of eligible voters who did not vote at all. I'll add that the first and third stats are pretty sad. On the upside, we didn't get those sky-high prices and new Middle-East wars Trump promised Harris would give us - hooray!

Trump puts the blame on Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. From Trump blames governor, not Iran, for Minnesota cyberattack
"They blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I think I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent," Trump said [w/o presenting any evidence] at a July 31 Cabinet meeting at the Camp David presidential retreat in Maryland. "I would blame it on Minnesota and the governor, the corrupt governor of Minnesota."
Governor Walz has a different theory (also from that article):
"Trump knows exactly who is responsible for this attack, and knows that other states were hit too," Walz said in a statement in response to the president's remarks. "This is what modern warfare looks like, and it further illustrates there’s no plan to win a war with Iran."
Walz blamed Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, the former government-slashing agency once led by tech executive Elon Musk, for gutting the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. "DOGE took an axe to CISA and left the U.S. exposed to cyberattacks. Thankfully, our experts in Minnesota were able to identify the vulnerability quickly and work with local communities to stop it," Walz said.
As seven states have been impacted, either Iran or Governor Walz has been very busy
Submission + - Drifting Falcon 9 upper stage heading for accidental collision with the Moon (space.com)
fahrbot-bot writes: Space and The Guardian are reporting that the Falcon 9 upper stage leftover from the launch of the Firefly Blue Ghost-1 lander on Jan. 15, 2025 is due to impact the Moon on Aug. 5, 2026.
Onboard the same flight was the Hakuto-R Mission 2, called Resilience, a robotic lunar lander developed by the Japanese company ispace.
According to a new study by an international team, the resulting impact plume may briefly be bright enough to see against the dark sky near the moon's edge. That means it might be visible to moongazers with sufficiently sensitive telescopes.
This head-on collision of the errant stage is expected to occur near the Einstein and Bell craters near the western lunar limb. It may well be visible to ground and space-based assets.
