We've had a bunch of corrupt and/or bullying politicians in the town where I live, and a group of us are raising funds to place an ad to call for new candidates we'll support through the running process. If you've got a few bucks to throw at small town politics in the East Bay, we'd be grateful. https://gofund.me/b8e1db389

Could the Trump Administration use the FBI to sow distrust about the midterm elections?

1970’s Roudebush v. Hartke decision sets a clear legal precedent that the federal government has no place interfering with how states deal with challenges to election integrity. https://buff.ly/l7r4y36

Oh cool, a new way to “be social” where my friends can upload my number even if I don’t opt in. According to OpenAI, if someone syncs contacts, they may process your phone number—and store numbers on servers in a coded/hashed format (not names/emails). So… who’s ready to follow people on #ChatGPT? 😼

Your Friends Could Be Sharing Your Phone Number with ChatGPT - Slashdot

"ChatGPT is getting more social," reports PC Magazine, "with a new feature that allows you to sync your contacts to see if any of your friends are using the chatbot or any other OpenAI product..." It's "completely optional," [OpenAI] says. However, even if you don't opt in, anyone with your number...

Today I learned that what jurisdiction you live in influences a lot of what remedies you could hope for if you are the victim of online fraud. Some jurisdictions have people who know how to handle it. Some don't.

If local law enforcement just kind of shrugs their shoulders with regards to your request then you have no remedy outside of hiring an expensive lawyer to do the trace.

In 2004, Howard Dean, then a viable candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, let out an enthusiastic yell during a campaign event. It ended his candidacy.

In 2013, Marco Rubio, considered a possible Republican presidential contender, drank water during a speech. It marked the end of his national political career.

In 2024, Donald Trump appeared to promise to end elections in the US if elected, and was cheered. He's polling roughly evenly with his opponent.

Sometimes an F5 tornado will grind the bark off of trees. The cyclone, nature's sandblaster, is full of metal scrap, glass, broken, tile and cement, it turns entire buildings to dust, scrapes the ground down to clay, strips asphalt, lifts & flings sidewalks. Everything pulverized into further grist to grind the earth.

To see a cyclone in the big midwest sky is to look on the angry face of God.

And I often think: Like a cosmic horror, perhaps they make Americans a little crazy.

Today's tiny little humor... opposing party counsel should be able to correctly spell their represented party's name? You would think... But that just illustrates their own incompetence.
