Usually NYT sets a cookie to track how many free articles you read and once you exceed that, you get the paywall. The bots probably don’t set/send the cookies, so NYT doesn’t block them. Also, I’d imagine the bots are coming from various different IPs so even server side blocking based on IP wouldn’t block everything and eventually the bot would get to the article. User Agents can also be spoofed.

The sad truth is with the two party system, you don’t vote for who you think is better, you vote against who you think is worse. A vote for Biden rejects Trump getting a second term.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

This is great and all, but what I really need is an alternative picture of shel silverstein to put on the back of the book.

Yes, I have no clue how she felt about the article from 2000, and obviously reading it with a 2024 lens is not fair to the original author. I am happy for her that the obituary didn’t deadname her like the original article did, and hope that she would have been ok with the pronouns used the way they did pre/post transition.

Also the wrong Conway

You’re right, very weird use of pronouns in the obituary. I can only imagine that most of it was lifted from the article from 2000. That doesn’t excuse misgendering someone, they could have updated it for 2024.

“I don’t want anybody going on me. We need every voter. I don’t care about you. I just want your vote,”

This was one of the three Trump quotes they have in the article. He added he was just joking but pretty sure he was serious.

Could it be you’re allergic to your laundry detergent or something introduced when washing it?

“I wouldn’t go up there. It’s really narrow.”

Those luxury RVs don’t pay for themselves. You expect Clarence Thomas to take away our basic human rights and subvert democracy in a regular RV?

Does Microsoft’s GitHub offer any pre-receive hook configuration to reject commits pushed that contain private keys? Surely that would be a better feature to opt all users into rather than Windows Copilot.

I misread the title as 2,019 trips were paid by Harlan Crow, and honestly wasn’t surprised that the amount of corruption was that high.

There will never be anything funnier than Four Seasons Total Landscaping. If I was a comedy TV writer, I would have quit that day because there’d never be a way I could top the hilarious absurdity of that press conference.

Clear whataboutism. Trump is a convicted felon and it’s pertinent for biden to speak about how unprecedented Trump’s conviction is while on the campaign trail for 2024. Whether you meant it or not, comparing a quote from Biden about the ICC decision to the years of Trump’s statements attacking and delegitimizing the elections/judicial system in the US is disingenuous. There is a real possibility that the RNC will nominate Trump for president while he is in jail, which is insane.

Don’t forget about that picture of Trump playing tennis. Actually, wait, don’t picture that.

OK im fine with heterosexual cis people I just don’t like the community around it and stop focusing kids to think there straight your cis when there not let them figure it out later in life not when there 8

Unless it’s literally no effort to maintain extensions that use both, a large portion of maintainers will develop what has the largest market share. Sure for uBlock Origin, there’s enough momentum to maintain a v2 version for Firefox, but for a new extension with one developer, it’s unlikely that they’d make two versions.

Either this backfires, and Firefox ends up having the better extensions using v2 manifest, or new extensions will be developed with the limitations of v3 and Firefox users will have an unnecessarily neutered experience as Chrome users.

I’m definitely never logging in to a Google service while using Firefox.

Could you elaborate on this? Why not use Firefox for logging into Gmail, Youtube, etc

We don’t know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. At the time, they were dependent on solar power. It was believed they would be unable to survive without an energy source as abundant as the sun.
