This started on Wednesday, almost immediately after Trump's victory was announced. By Friday it was already being reported in grade schools because asshole parents enjoy raising asshole sons, and Trump tells people that it's ok to be the absolute worst human being they can be.

I have a friend who is a hard Republican. We generally don't talk politics, but after this started last week he was posting things online being offensive towards women and POC (and the whole "illegals took my job and healthcare") so I finally had to call him out. His response was basically that he wasn't aware of any increased discrimination happening against women, therefore he didn't believe it was happening. I've known the guy for 40 years but this may be the thing that breaks our friendship. He claims to be an advocate for people's rights yet he is painfully unaware of the world around him.

Is this supposed to be a bad thing? Honestly I don't want the guy holding the nuclear launch codes to be making decisions on a few hours of sleep, no matter what your age is.

Seriously... If this were actual "bombshell" news it wouldn't be on a youtube channel.

Back in the days when we all had antennas and cable hadn't been born yet, the static stations were a great thing to watch if there might be a tornado in your area. Apparently if one formed, it would significantly change the look of the snow on the TV and give you a warning to quickly head to the basement. I never actually saw it happen, but there were a couple times we had local warnings and my parents plopped me down to keep an eye on the TV.

I was sent an invite to participate, I assume just because the age of my account, but there's no way I'd jump into that unless I already knew how to actively play the market. I'm guessing there could be an initial surge from people investing who recognize the name but haven't been paying attention to the site in the past year, and then everyone is going to start jumping ship when they realize the stock isn't going anywhere or is going to lose money.

Thank god. If Trump is forced out of the race from being in jail, DeSantis was the next leader, and at this point I really don't know which one of them is worse.

Wow does anyone know where that first picture comes from? That mountain range looks like someone just jammed a bunch of glass shards into the ground!

You're braver than me... Most of the time "unsubscribe" is actually a signal that the spam was received by a mailbox with a live human reading it, and they automatically sign you up for several other mailing lists.

I agree that a static IP address is an absolute requirement for a mail server to send messages these days. You also need a host of checks in place like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, along with a strong set of blocklists and spam filters. My own setup includes dual ISP connections from two different providers, and even with all that in place, Microsoft has always been a thorn. They will block me for no apparent reason, their own tools don't even show any detected spam activity, and sometimes they don't even block the same IP address (or provider) that my emails were sent from. Every other spam service on the planet behaves in a rational way, but of course Microsoft has made a point of locking in so many businesses to their own spam-ridden service that you simply can't run a mail server any more without being able to talk to them.

Overall, yeah it can be a pain to run your own mail server. I can't imagine trying to use a pre-built mail server and expect it to run, there's so much that you have to configure to each specific setup. It's not like a web server where you load up a docker container and it just works.

"The suspect obviously killed themself with the officer's gun, before the officer arrived."

Isn't it funny how they are so quick to cry that they're not fascists, but when you ask them why they use "anti-fa" as a derogatory insult they still have trouble putting it together?
