Very Atlas Shrugged. I don't notice this senator building an alternative and offering it for free on demand.

Yep -- Maybe run a less sketchy / skeevy candidate.
Texas had a Senator, John Cornyn, who voted like 98% conservative. He had a history of winning his races by large margins. But online influencers and podcasters knew better and primaried him with Paxton. And now not only will Republicans lose a Senate seat, they may lose the governorship. Absolutely foolish. If you care about good, conservative policy, you should care about having candidates that can appeal to a large enough constituency so they can win.

To the airport would be nice. (I know it's not Tesla's fault.)
Reaching #ABIA's ride-share area shows that the people who run the airport do so with callous indifference, so not allowing robotaxis is the kind of blinkered, philistine pig ignorance I've come to expect.

Hey, @alyankovic --
a) Thanks for many years of mood-elevation, starting in the vinyl era.
b) Google says you've never taken on "I want to hold your hand." Which leaves the door open for "I want to scan your brain." Which would be like a post-doc followup to "Like a Surgeon"!

"That example with Churchill, Hitler, Bush, and Grandma Moses hits the exact sweet spot of what makes a multimedia quiz engine shine."

Why does Texans for Greg Abbott phone-spam me after 8pm on a Sunday from a number that shows up as Sirius XM? Can you really think that would make someone want to vote for Greg Abbott? #lipsaremoving

Recommended. Good medicine for anyone who uses Gemini, but who also tends to absentmindedly tap keys like Enter, Tab, or Space, or who likes to get newlines ...

#foss software notes:
Text expander espanso is useful, cross-platform, and (surprisingly) ended up easier to configure than a KDE hotkey shortcut.

No. Conclusion ≠ proof.
It might be true, but this is not enough to call proof.
