The SFPD has clarified that their robots authorised to use lethal force will not be equipped with firearms. Instead they will be armed with explosive charges. https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/san-francisco-police-lethal-robots-17616522.php You don't say.

The previous one was 8 years ago, which is, I feel, a reasonable amount of time for opinion to shift. That said, the Guardian poll tracking graph suggests that the vote is still pretty evenly split between Yes and No. If Scotland was going to declare independence, I'd expect it to be when there...

Supreme Court has blocked Trump's request to keep his tax returns from the Jan 6 committee:

Also the shooter is the grandson of a Republican California State Assemblyman.

I really enjoyed Elden Ring. I did three playthroughs (though one was a speedrun on New Game+ for a trophy, technically) so they must have done something right. Stray was another game I loved, being a sucker for cats and robots.

I do miss when we used to have separate threads for each episode. And when TF shows used to not be dumped all at once.

And Trump's announced he's not interested in returning to Twitter since he has Truth Social now: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/trump-cites-twitter-problems-says-he-ll-stick-to-own-platform/ar-AA14jCvI

Surprisingly, Musk has given a hard no to unbanning Alex Jones, so I guess there is a limit but trying to incite a bloody revolution to overthrow the government doesn't meet it?

This is going to end with Elon broke and sodding off back to South Africa, isn't it?

I think like most developed countries, the UK had a large amount of systems and checks in place that just took a long time to unravel to the point where the issues started impacting everyone. It's like how Elon has fired 90% of the people working at Twitter, but the site's still going right...

As expected, he's announced he's running for president. Though not before a 20 minute rambling speech about how his presidency was a golden age and everything under Joe Biden has been terrible.

A little under 20 minutes until Trump does his announcement!

Huh, I thought it was meant to be a Cockney accent

Oh sure, I can see him trying, I'm just doubting the idea of him being able to organize candidates for the house and senate for his new party in time. Though given how much of a knife-edge balance there is, he might only need candidates in a few states to swing things the Democrats' way.

If Donald runs in the Republican primary and loses to DeSantis, wouldn't that only give him a few months before the election? I'm skeptical that he would be able to form a party in time to run senate and house candidates everywhere.

Loving this show so far. My favourite dynamic is the Alex/Bumblebee relationship, but pretty much everything from the music to the character designs to the voice acting to the animation to the writing and every other aspect of the show is top notch.

It's very likely that his announcement on Tuesday is going to be a 2024 run at the Presidency just to avoid all these law suits.

And imagine how annoyed the people who turned 18 this year would be at the Republican party after Republicans prevent them from voting in 2024. They would turn an entire year's worth of voters against them for the rest of time.

The fake Eli Lilly tweet saying that insulin would be free has caused the real company's stock to fall: https://www.investors.com/news/technology/lly-stock-dives-taking-novo-sanofi-with-it-after-fake-twitter-account-promises-free-insulin/
