In April Todd Lyons,
the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ice),
lamented that it takes too long to deport illegal immigrants.
At the Border Security Expo in Phoenix he told a crowd of startup bosses vying for government contracts that a better deportation system would function more like Amazon, the tech giant whose delivery drivers zigzag the country at record speed.
“Like Prime, but with human beings,” he said.

America’s immigration detention centres are at capacity
A visit to the second biggest, in Georgia, shows what that looks like

I supported Bernie Sanders against Clinton.
Just posting because I believe it's good to admit one's mistakes.

Bernie Sanders blames election loss on Kamala Harris choosing billionaires over the working class
Sanders said while Joe Biden has been blamed election loss, it was ultimately Harris’s fault for cosying up to billionaires

One of the things I like about the #Quartiles puzzle game in the Apple News app, is how many non-words there are that could very well be words, but aren’t. The sequence of letters follow basic general conventions that look & sound like a word, but nobody’s used it yet. With just the right buzz that sounds profound.

Ben Shapiro doesn’t like women over the age of 19 acting like they are 18 (which appears to mean dancing, showing any kind of sexual attractiveness, or god forbid, kissing others) because no woman in their right mind would show affection to Ben Shapiro and his deeply insecure middle aged mania.

For example:
- Telling apart photos of cats and dogs is “AI.”
- Making up fake but plausible facts on an arbitrary topic is “AI.”
- Walking is “AI.”
- Doing long multiplication is something we might call “intelligence” in humans, but it is not “AI” because computers have •always• been good at it.
- Winning at checkers •used• to be “AI” because computers didn’t used to be able to do that, but now it’s not “AI” because computers have been good at it for too long.

Really, Babas? I understand we all have the right to protect and potentially profit from our own IP, but this feels out of proportion.
St Michael's does incredible work in Herefordshire. Maybe the Barbarians' bigwigs should come and take a look.

Someone mentioned the "awesome" web site for Milwaukee Critical Mass, but I think they may have been taking the piss...
But honestly, I'd rather see this than an overdone 'full of shit' web site with too much.
As it is, it gives the basic info. Sometimes that's all you need.
Although (sigh) it looks like it hasn't been updated since April.

You don’t get to opt out of politics.
Not really.
Because while you’re
“too busy” or “too cool” or “too disillusioned” to vote,
someone else is voting.
And if that someone wants to ban books, force pregnancies, erase history, gut healthcare, or unleash the police state, guess what?

Like It or Not, You’re in It — So Act Like It
🗳️🔥 You can say you don’t care about politics.

For example:
- Telling apart photos of cats and dogs is “AI.”
- Making up fake but plausible facts on an arbitrary topic is “AI.”

This is going to be a different type of campaign.
Because when you’re going after Medicaid and even ripping food away from hungry kids,
all to cut taxes for donors and corporate lobbyists,
we’re not pulling punches.
