  1. Yeah she's pro-Israel, and has been for a while. Not sure how that would translate to getting out young voters when that was one of the biggest issues with Kamalas campaign failure a year ago. Probably is just bullshit Super PAC support to try and get the least electable candidate for the Dems.
  2. That would make it infinitely worse. Why would a team want to be the 8 seed in the playoffs when losing a few games might get them #9 or worse and give them Cooper Flagg? The mid-level team tanking sucks because it waters down the remainder of the season for everyone. The top 8-10 teams in the league are the only ones with any real reason to fight for wins. The issue is the lottery incentivises losing and missing the playoffs. Expanding the lottery and lowering the worst odds has accentuated the problem by incetivisizing avoiding the playoffs for any team on the fringe. If only the worst 5 teams had an real shot at a top pick, you wouldn't be seeing all this bullshit injury stuff to tank late in the season. You wouldn't see Luka shut down in March so the Mavs can get that 10th worst record to avoid sending out the pick and hoping for some lottery luck. The NBA Draft lottery is the primary driving force behind NBA tanking and nobody wants to admit it, because the owners secretly love it. Our entire national culture is being overtaken in every facet by gambling, loot boxes and prediction markets that are enshittifying every aspect of life as we know it. Now even our most competitive sports leagues are becoming inextricably entwined in this gambling mess, and it just creates a min/max dynamic that makes everything shitty. Get off my lawn /rant
  3. Ken was one of Epsteins defense lawyers in his 2008 Florida case. They continued their relationship for many years and Start even advised him during the 2017 case. Starr also hosted Epstein on Baylor's campus when he was president. No idea if anything nefarious has been alleged during that time, but certainly wouldn't surprise me.
  4. I'll vote for whoever wins the primary, but Jasmine is losing a lot of respect in all this. After the bullshit thing about Allred and trying to make it racist, and now pretending like the FCC isn't actively trying to suppress James' campaign I think she's done for a while. I hope her supporters will still vote for James if he wins. Saw this on X and thought it applied here:
  5. The FCC already started an investigation into The View for having Talarico on, and for the same reasons despite them both being talk shows. It's pretty reasonable to assume the same would have happened to CBS. If CBSs lawyers didn't want to take on that fight, that's understandable, as CBS leadership is full of Trump lackeys now. I would expect them to relay that message in a way that would preclude Colbert from airing it, especially with such a viscous threat as having to interview Ken Paxton on the show.
  6. Of course they didn't "ban" it, the FCC heavily implied that there would be problems or unforeseen consequences if they did air it. Ya know, stuff "happens" bada bing bada boom oh oops, there goes your broadcast license! Poof!
  7. Crockett is getting played, but her ego won't let her see the truth. What next, is she going to dispute the results of the primary when she loses? I'll be voting for Talarico tomorrow, hopefully he wins by double digits so we don't have to hear from her for 2 years.
  8. There are video files that have been posted as PDF files. They appear as still images on the DOJ site, but if you edit the .PDF to .mp4 or whatever your browser will recognize it as video and play it. Lots more shit to be uncovered as journalists do the heavy lifting of actually reviewing the files and finding the stuff the DoJ thought they hid. Some videos of young girls are already being circulated on Twitter, which claim to be from the DoJ site. 3 million more files and likely the absolute worst of the worst shit. I can't believe Michael Cohen did this!!!
  9. Maybe the triple dub cocaine bear?
  10. The "Checking if you're a bot" image looks like some weeb shit. Should probably replace it with something more Surly-like.
  11. If you are in the market for hard drive upgrades, now is a good time to get some. WD's CEO says they are selling out all their capacity for drive manufacturing to AI development and data centers... Could just be a bunch of fluff to excuse price gouging, but either way the price is certainly about to go up. Newegg, BHP and Microcenter all have 1-2 drives per account limit right now to try and keep supply from getting pinched, but it's not going to be enough to stem the tide of manufacturing chasing the big bucks of AI company's needs vs consumer products. MashableThanks a lot, AI: Hard drives are already sold out for th...AI companies have bought out Western Digital's storage capacity for 2026. It's only February.To that end, I just bought 3 of these WD Gold 14TB drives to add to my server. I have been running a pair of 14TB drives for a while, but been meaning to upgrade to a Raid5 config. I'm going to use Windows Storage Spaces and make a Raid 5 of those 3 14TB drives, then clear all the data off my other two, and add them to the data pool. Should be good on storage for a long time, after all that, even if one of the older drives fails, which I'm slightly anticipating now after checking up on them. I got a couple from BHP and 1 from Newegg so I can get 3 of the exact same drives. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1881431-REG/wd_wd142kryz_spcmkb0_wd_gold_enterprise_class.html
  12. Anyone have some more corroborating evidence of this Zorro Ranch stuff? Would be cool if we could put Don Huffines in jail over it.
  13. Gianmarco Soresi! He's hilarious, I highly recommend him if you enjoy crowd work type stand-up. He's very left wing, so I'm sure many of you in the CR will appreciate it. His recent hour long special was great:
  14. Even before this, my wife missed an election cycle in 2016 because she couldn't get re-registered with her new last name in time for the election. It's always been a pain in the ass for Texas women who get married or divorced. I personally don't have a problem with the idea of a basic ID used to vote, but there should be quite an array of valid forms, and it should only take 1 ID to qualify. I know the issue has become a slippery slope towards voter suppression, but the basic idea does make sense. The Passport option is interesting to me. I would bet money that if you polled all Americans that have passports and their party affiliation, it would skew left significantly more than the general population. I wonder if the GOP will realize that and change the requirements...
  15. Is there anything to confirm it's him? The original tweet I saw about it came from a well known parody account.
  16. It feels like one of those games during Covid when the stadiums were empty so they put a bunch of cardboard cutout fans in the seats to make it seem like there was a crowd. Yikes...
  17. I like it. Maybe Crane will add Craig to his inner circle? He can't be any worse than Bagwell.
  18. WTF is this shit? That's not even a dunk?? Is this satire?
