ABC already settled one lawsuit from Trump since the election, maybe this will teach them settling won't stop the harassment.

Maybe he should tell Danielle Smith to stop talking him up to the American right-wing.

The title of the post matches the title of the article, this isn't a case of a poster editorializing.

Didn't the funding bill a couple of weeks ago give Trump more tariff power? Why didn't this guy speak up sooner?

According to this non-paywalled coverage, there are times when the filibuster doesn't apply to repealing laws:

The 1996 CRA gives Congress a 60-day window to repeal federal regulations with a simple majority vote in each chamber and the president’s signature. The clock resets in a new session of Congress for rules finalized toward the end of the previous congressional session.

Republican lawmakers are also eyeing CRA measures to repeal the CFPB’s larger participant rule for digital payment companies and its ban on the use of medical debt in consumer credit reports.

Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn't going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.

Coincidentally(?), today Humble launched a bundle that includes both Pillars of Eternity games.

I was going to start PoE on Game Pass soon, but I think real-time with pause was what turned me off of Baldur's Gate 1 back in the day, so I guess I'll wait for the patch.

From the article:

In bankruptcy and receivership cases, cash-strapped companies can opt not to pay severance, forcing laid-off workers to make claims as unsecured creditors — which will likely result in pennies on the dollar.

Oh they'll do something: They'll try harder not to get caught.
