You're right, it's not news so much as that the Clintons come from an era of politics where merely embarrassing things are still kept on the down-low. Especially considering the continued influence of 1990's Clinton-era politicking on the Democratic party. Even Obama couldn't really break that hold, as seen by Hillary being given the Secretary of State position during Obama's tenure and then running and losing after Obama. There was actually a lot of evidence at the time that the DNC was basically broke and was living off of the generosity of the Clinton foundation. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, chair of the DNC from 2011 to 2016, was literally in Hillary Clinton's pocket. While Bill Clinton himself is not particularly important as a figure these days, the family influence continues to extend deep into nearly every facet of the Democratic party, and as such, Democrats are unlikely to bite the hands that feed them so to speak.

If you or your son (or anyone else in this thread for that matter) ever want a slightly simpler option, with less likelihood of cutting, I recommend this. It has been a game changer for me personally.

Story time. One time I was working for a local monthly paper that was all-volunteer and I interviewed someone at one of our local colleges. The interview went fine but on my way out, I noticed through a window of an empty classroom a white board with nothing on it except the words:

MOTHER FATHER CHINESE DENTIST

spoilerTrivia: According to the Mr. Show season 4 DVD commentary, years after the show ended, cast member Paul F. Tompkins had overheard someone talking on a cell phone in a bar utter the phrase “mother father chinese dentist!” When asked if she was a fan of the show, her reply was “What?”

It's a real post, but evidence suggests its a joke.

Only post by user and no response to any comments. Users of the sub seem to think it's a joke.

I could be wrong about the pay, of course, I don't have enough programming knowledge to apply for that. Mercor seems like another good option though for people looking for something like that. Thanks for including the suggestion for others here! I have added it to my original comment.

so what will the point of failure

Historically it has been when a significant amount of the public cannot afford to feed themselves or their families. During the Great Depression there was a lot of land to be worked and to grow food, which allowed many to still survive despite the troubling economics of the time. Now, that's not quite the case anymore, and you'll have more people struggling to make ends meet. When people say "bread and circuses" most people focus on the "circuses" but the reality is the bread is the more important bit.

and I’m even more interested if you can guess how we get around the dilemma?

Historically, a lot of strife, violence, blood, and vengeance. Most will suffer and die. Dark times ahead.

Good stuff.

Peggy, I didn't retire to sleep my life away like some nepo-baby.

That's the right attitude, Hank. You stop livin you start dyin.

 

We are getting reports of YouTube rolling out an experiment to some accounts where normal videos only have DRM formats available on the tv (TVHTML5) Innertube client.

This is not limited to yt-dlp. Tests have been run with the same account on various official YouTube TV clients (PS3, web browser, apple tv) and they are also only getting DRM formats for videos.

We live in hell-world.

 

this one is called "too short haiku"

 

Right from the start
I was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know I wasn't breathing
Didn't know I had been bleeding

Opened my door
Thought I was alone but
Someone was hiding
In a dark room in my home

Hum it, you will remember some of it
But if you solve it you will remember all of it

Creeper in my home, crawled in through the window
I grabbed a kitchen knife, couldn't stick it in though
Creeper had his own, shining in the moonlight
My home was very cold, and something didn't feel right

Right from the start
I was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know I wasn't breathing

I woke up thirsty on an island in the sea
I woke up hungry with hungry cougars surrounding me
I hit the soft spot on the soft spot on my head
It made me tired so I sung from my bed
"I'm ready to die, I'm ready to die, I'm ready to die"

A sword, a switchblade, any way you cut it
I'm not afraid, I know I'm going to get it
Oh, maker of such fine products
As palm trees, and the dead sea

Don't pardon me, there's nothing rude
Things conclude, things conclude!

As I slurred that chorus
The ghosts got Biggie Small sounds like a drill
The death sweat suits me
A death threat provides a thrill
I've seen the world, kissed all the pretty girls
I've said my goodbyes and now I'm ready to die

Nearly two full hours of step-by-step instruction details the use of computer-generated curve picks, rockers, magnetic lock picking, lock-aid guns, and electronic picks in this revolutionary video.

You'll see the craft of picking pin tumbler, wafer, tubular cylinder and padlocks; quick, undetectable methods for beating the most popular locks in the U.S.; and opening safes via drilling, burning bars, thermite and the European explosive method.

Whether you're a locksmith, cop, detective or just a concerned citizen, you cannot afford to miss this exceptional tape.

 

What it says on the tin. Power management is set to turn my monitors off after a set amount of time. They all instantly come back on. I have resorted to using a screen saver in X11 until this is solved.

Three monitors, different brands: one hdmi->hdmi, one dp->hdmi, dp->dvi (pc->monitor)

Only one of the monitors have input auto-switching and that is disabled.

I am losing my mind even the cli xset dpms force off (X11) or kscreen-doctor --dpms off (Wayland) just has them come back on seconds later.

All the A/V cables are new.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Oh, but to just dance on steel, the Sky Pulaski way.
By the fires of Elizabeth, never cease to amaze.
So hats off to the industry's casualties
Tra loo tray lay.
Oh that swamp full of grabbing hands.
Pull you under New Amsterdam.
Chinese boxes hold their secrets well.
How many are there one can never tell.

Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.

Art class for the bourgeoisies, lab rats for the cat.
Real estate moguls, Chump Towers,
When the wind blows you can hear the windows go rat a tat rat a tat tat tat.

Jimmy Hoffa in the Meadowlands, weighing down that union man.
Grab his ankles, stevedores,
Oh how those Jets do roar.

Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
They gonna join that underground church.

Oh but to just dine on sewage, cold seagull pie.
Wrestle albino alligators and spin the good lie.

Oh that swamp full of grabbing hands.
Pull you under New Amsterdam.
Chinese boxes hold their secrets well.
How many are there one can never tell.

Got to get religion, they gonna join that underground church
Even the mole people got to get religion.
