  • Pam Bondi’s Secret Health Battle Is Revealed

  • How come assassinations went away for the most part? Why send a bunch of god fearing young kids into a battle the upper class started or wanted when clipping one leader would stop it?

  • In the end, all you do is make them a martyr and propel us faster into war.

    I think the lesson they learned from the martyrs they created in the 60s (King, the Kennedys) is that it's much easier and just as effective to assassinate character. And it's mostly legal.

  • Why do "assassins" or whatever always have a Copy of Catcher in The Rye on them or with them? I read the book and nothing about taking out people, well prolly catholics but that is it?

    "The best-known event associated with The Catcher in the Rye is arguably Mark David Chapman's murder of John Lennon in 1980.[14] Chapman identified with the novel's narrator to the extent that he wanted to change his name to Holden Caulfield. On the night he shot Lennon, Chapman was found with a copy of the book in which he had written "This is my statement" and signed Holden's name.[15] Later, he read a passage from the novel to address the court during his sentencing.[16] Daniel Stashower speculated that Chapman had wanted Lennon's innocence to be preserved by death, inspired by Holden's wish to preserve children's innocence despite Holden's later realization that children should be left alone.[16]

    "After John Hinckley Jr.'s assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan in 1981, police found The Catcher in the Rye in his hotel room.[17] Hinckley's possession of the novel was later dismissed as an influence, as a half dozen various other types of books were also discovered in his possession.

    "Robert John Bardo, who murdered Rebecca Schaeffer, was carrying the book when he visited Schaeffer's apartment in Hollywood on July 18, 1989 and murdered her."

    Two carried it, one had it back in his hotel room. And all 3 were in the 80s.

  • It was fairly basic, just analyzing audio tracks and extracting the dialogue from them to text. Simple stuff for AI now.

  • You know there have already been multiple articles of impeachment introduced during the second Trump regime, and they have all been slapped down by the Republicans, right? I mean, I wonder where you guys think these impeachments are going to come from under a Republican-controlled Congress.

    Democrats managed to pull off two impeachments last time-- which the Democrat anklebiters always ignore-- and this time the Republicans are even a lower class of reprobates than before.

    If someone threatens to kill you (but yk they can't really do it) what's a good non violent revenge that doesn't involve hitting them?

  • Some phones, you could unscrew the covers on the microphone and the earpiece. And then you could just take the microphone out, because it wasn't wired in, it was just a loose piece that sat on contacts kind of like AA batteries.

    Before caller ID came along, call waiting and three-way calling were a new thing for a while. I had one of the old Mickey mouse phones, and you could unscrew and take out the microphone on that one. So me and a buddy would take the phone book, pick two numbers at random, and then using three-way calling I would call each one of them as quick as I could, and then listen in as two strangers called each other. You got arguments, and accusations, and a couple of times a guy hitting on a girl who had no idea how he got her number etc. blah blah. I was certain I was a prank genius.

    Later I started getting a bit more inventive like having two pizza places call each other, etc. But the best one was, in the white pages I found a Mr so and so Junior, and a Mr so and so Senior. I made those two houses call each other, and both houses were full of people, and they got into a big argument over who called who and they kept passing the phone around saying hey let me let you talk to your dad he'll tell you what's up blah blah and we're just sitting there laughing and laughing. That one went on a while.

    Caller ID came along pretty soon after that and the fun was over.
