Yep.

Donald Trump’s vice presidential pick Ohio Sen. JD Vance was once a fervent critic of the former president. In private messages, he wondered ahead of Trump’s election whether he was “America’s Hitler” and in 2017 said the then-president was a “moral disaster.” In public, he agreed Trump was a “total fraud” who didn’t care about regular people and called him “reprehensible.”

Oh man I am looking forward to JD Vance asking everyone how long they've been working there.

I didn't even think of this angle.

He's been in so many courtrooms as of late, that he can SMELL the judicial system on her and panicked.

So much conservative talking points about Kamala is pro-genocide with no evidence.

Like motherfucker, your main boy has zero plans and has a history of flying by the seat of his pants and having Americans killed.

Nobody on the fence with Kamala was going to change their mind.

Lifelong R voters who were questioning staying R with weird old ass Trump are now in a state of panic.

This always blows me away when they call for FREEDOM.

Freedom to own a gun and say whatever you want, put whatever you want in your body.

But then it's like Ban books, stop wokeness, don't use those bathrooms, no to that medical care, etc over and over.

I know two Republican Indians, which is two too many. They absolutely shit on their own country/people and sees stories like this as why they're "one of the good ones". They're great Leopards Ate My Face material.

I grew up with rifles that were locked in the garage. And I was a stupid kid who figured out how to look down the barrel and point them at the neighbors' fence. They were "hidden" in an area where I could mess with them for a few hours without my family knowing.

I was given the whole talk but I never took it seriously until years later when I got on the range and did some actual hunting and cried my ass off killing an animal.

Knowing how stupid I was, I assume the worse with my family.

Today, I keep a pistol in a secure case in the house. But it's in my office near all the other critical things where I can see it/my kids can't access it without lots of barriers. It also means that it's kinda useless for quick access and would take a few minutes to get. I'm okay with that.

All the gun owners I know talk the biggest talk about safety. Then the moment they get to show it off, they wave their guns around like school children and pointing it at random things and fetishizing it.

Mine is locked up and secured. And if I take it out, I'm using it.

A private school in London is opening the UK's first classroom taught by artificial intelligence instead of human teachers. They say the technology allows for precise, bespoke learning while critics argue AI teaching will lead to a "soulless, bleak future".

The UK's first "teacherless" GCSE class, using artificial intelligence instead of human teachers, is about to start lessons.

David Game College, a private school in London, opens its new teacherless course for 20 GCSE students in September.

The students will learn using a mixture of artificial intelligence platforms on their computers and virtual reality headsets.

The songs that the AI CEO provided to Smith originally had file names full of randomized numbers and letters such as "n_7a2b2d74-1621-4385-895d-b1e4af78d860.mp3," the DOJ noted in its detailed press release.

When uploading them to streaming platforms, including Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music, the man would then change the songs' names to words like "Zygotes," "Zygotic," and "Zyme Bedewing," whatever that is.

The artist naming convention also followed a somewhat similar pattern, with names ranging from the normal-sounding "Calvin Mann" to head-scratchers like "Calorie Event," "Calms Scorching," and "Calypso Xored."

To manufacture streams for these fake songs, Smith allegedly used bots that stream the songs billions of times without any real person listening. As with similar schemes, the bots' meaningless streams were ultimately converted to royalty paychecks for the people behind them.
