All to do what? Write emails and generate mediocre pictures?

The usefulness of AI currently is not much better than predictive text.

So I use both, depending on context. "Setup" is a noun, "set up" is a verb. "Login" is a noun, "log in" is a verb.

I've been sitting here trying to figure out different proper contexts for "anytime" vs "any time," but honestly, I can decide one way or the other.

Let's start with a smartphone. A user creates an account with a passkey for a service, that passkey gets stored on their smartphone, and they can use biometrics to sign in from then on. The private key is stored on the smartphone. Great.

But then how do you sign into that same service from a different device?

If it's by using a password manager, some third party piece of software, How do you sign in on a device where you're not allowed to install third party software?

In case people don't know what Project 2025 is.

Here's the document:

https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24088042-project-2025s-mandate-for-leadership-the-conservative-promise

AT LEAST READ THE FOREWARD. It very meticulously lays out their 4 goals:

  1. Restore the family as the centerpiece of American life and protect our children.
  1. Dismantle the administrative state and return self-governance to the American people.
  1. Defend our nation’s sovereignty, borders, and bounty against global threats.
  1. Secure our God-given individual rights to live freely—what our Constitution calls “the Blessings of Liberty

In plain language they want to:

  1. Effectively make LGBTQ+ persons illegal, unable to marry, adopt, or even exist openly, nationally ban abortion, ban education about black history and systemic racism;
  2. hamstring or eliminate a bunch of government agencies like the Department of Education, the EPA, the DOJ, Department of Homeland Security, and to eliminate many positions within the federal government or install loyal puppets;
  3. close our borders completely, pull out of NATO and the UN, invest heavily in oil, coal, and natural gas while divesting in renewable energy and removing environmental regulations, and exert extreme control over tech companies and universities;
  4. create school voucher programs which very much are to allow parents to segregate their children and use tax dollars to fund conservative, religious, private schools at k-12 levels, and eliminate social welfare programs. Also includes the contradiction of "champion the dynamic genius of free enterprise" and "include antitrust enforcement against corporate monopolies."

The whole thing is full of conservative buzz words, "anti-woke" rhetoric, and contradictions about free enterprise while wanting to exert control over people and "big tech."

But it's also dangerous because they're going to attempt to consolidate power to the next Republican president. There are complicated and far-reaching consequences to the things they're proposing that would take an academic paper to get into. For example, Ron DeSantis just signed a bill making lab-grown meat illegal because of the "global elite." It doesn't make any sense, but it's part of the reactionary, anti-leftist, culture war bullshit the Republicans are on right now.

That summary should be enough to show why this is so dangerous.

Welp, guess I'm going to get rid of Disney+. I already hate that they flooded it with Hulu content. I very much cannot let my kid browse through unattended anymore.

I mean, Poor Things is on there now and it has some of the most explicit sex scenes I've seen in a movie in a long time.

Her shows are actually an insane amount of work, and it's obvious when you watch them. My wife is a huge fan, myself not so much, but I can at least admit that her talent is undeniable.

She does 3-hour shows Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, then does it again the next week, and she's been doing that for over a year. It's honestly nuts.

And even between all those shows, she's releasing a new album. If anyone actually works for her wealth, it's Swift.

No country or government has a "right" to exist. They're given that ability to exist by the people they're supposed to serve. If the system is not serving the people, it shouldn't exist.

Yeah, like literally every election campaign by every politician ever. Do you know how elections work? Or are you 12?

It literally just happened, so that remains to be seen.

What I do know is that the Republican representatives have been taking away freedoms and enacting bad policy for decades. So the change is welcome.

Here in Huntsville, AL, a Democrat recently won a representative position by a wide margin.

It's possible to turn a red city blue or keep a blue city in a red state. It just takes all people to show up to vote.

And here's the rub: Democrats far out number Republicans, so the more people that vote, the higher the percentage that Democrats can win by.
