Also good parents don’t let tweens have unsupervised access to a handgun…

“Yeah but the Bible was talking about Christians, not Haitians and Mexicans”

I’m pretty sure that time he altered a hurricane map with a sharpie was in the Oval Office.

It’s also an unnecessary use of the passive voice. Did the nativist attacks fall out of the sky and land on the rally? No, Trump made them himself.

Maybe “Bleach blond bad built butch body”?

iOS shows the voicemail transcript in realtime as they’re leaving the message.

Referring to Marjorie Taylor Greene as “it” isn’t very nice

lol I just checked and I had 26 pending app updates. Every one of them had about the same level of detail.

The only exceptions were the Wikipedia app and Voyager, both of which listed some new features.

Fyi the internet archive has paywall free versions of most Atlantic articles

As others have said, microwave ovens create standing waves with regions of higher power (hot spots), which unevenly heat food. If you want to see this for yourself, Scientific American has a kids project for measuring the hot spots in a microwave using chocolate or marshmallows. There’s also a bunch of videos on YouTube of people essentially doing this same project.

Honestly this sounds like user error. From one of the links in the article:

As the journalist and Apple Store staff tested, if you insert the wrong passcode for 1 to 5 times, there will only be red notifications saying the passcode is wrong, and you needn’t wait to give it another try.

For the 6th time you insert a wrong passcode, it will report, “iPhone is disabled, try again in 1 minute”. And the phone will be locked, and you won’t be able to insert passcode again until 1 minute later.

For the 7th time, the iPhone will show, “iPhone is disabled, try again in 5 minutes”.

For the 8th time, the iPhone will be locked for 15 minutes, and for the 9th time, it will be locked for 60 minutes to insert passcode again.

If you insert the wrong passcode for 10th time, the iPhone will be disabled and you will have to connect it to iTunes to unlock.

Apparently if you jailbreak the iPhone the delays aren’t set correctly (or at least that was the case 10 years ago)?

On top of that, the user couldn’t just wipe the phone because they didn’t want to lose a video that wasn’t backed up anywhere else.

If the immigration doesn’t work, at least the bomb threats are adding some excitement for the townsfolk.

widely distributed them. Many of them went to civilians for legitimate purposes.

Source?

There are many sources because it’s been widely reported. Here’s one: reuters.

It’s been widely reported, here’s a reuters source.

Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.

And this is after Dick Cheney already endorsed Harris…

Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point

As usual, Rep. Jeff Jackson (D, NC) offers an insightful take on how this will play out in congress:

The government won’t shut down.

Instead, we’ll play our familiar game.

In round one, the right-flank will demand various poison pills in the government funding bill in exchange for their support. The Speaker will pretend to agree with them. He’ll even do TV interviews where he loudly tells us how much he agrees with them. He really has to sell how much he agrees with them… because of what he’ll do in round two.

Round two is the Speaker throwing his right-flank under the bus and saying no to all their demands.

There are a few ways he can do that, but the most likely path is that he’ll let their version of a funding bill pass the House and then become dead-on-arrival in the Senate. At which point, he’ll turn to his right-flank and say, “Guys, you know I tried. You watched me try. I did all those interviews where I agreed with you. But it looks like we’re outta moves here, so unfortunately I have to remove your excellent suggestions from the budget bill. Really sorry about that.”

Round three is the right-flank pretending to be upset and going on TV to blast the Speaker for his “weakness” - but in reality, losing this fight works well for them.

Why?

Because pretending to be upset on TV is their favorite thing to do, so they won’t be genuinelyupset with the Speaker because he’s giving them an excuse to do it. As I’ve seen many times, this is a group that would rather accept a policy defeat that opens a political opportunity than give up a political opportunity to achieve a policy victory.

So don’t buy the hoopla. Things will get super contentious leading up to September 30th (when the money to fund the federal government runs out), but we’ll get it done.
