Kamala Harris dominated the debate despite the fact that she was given about 5 minutes less time to speak!

It’s disappointing to see how the media invariably accommodates Trump. Contrary to the rules of the debate, when Trump continued talking after his time was up or demanded to respond to a point Harris made, they often let him by not muting his microphone. This added up to right around 5 minutes of extra speaking time on prime time television for him to spew his lies. The one time Harris tried the same thing she was shut down by the moderators. If there is any silver lining here it’s that Trump probably made his debate performance worse by talking more!

I was glad to see some push back and fact checking by the moderators in regards to Trump’s most egregious lies. Today MAGA is complaining that the debate was rigged and the moderators were against Trump due to the fact checks while they should be thanking ABC for the special treatment that allowed Trump extra air time.

Go Harris/Walz!

Fuck yeah

He made tampons available in all bathrooms (boy’s and girl’s) to accommodate trans kids. You are right, these people are deranged - and weird as hell.

Maybe he was born with it. Maybe it’s Maybeline.

Looks like it provides full fivehead coverage.

I think his bark is worse than his bite but don’t worry - the logcatcher will probably catch him soon.

One of the problems with this is that the debate rules are not enforced. If you go back and watch Trump in previous debates he continually ignores the time limits and talks over the moderator when told his time is up. Microphones for both participants should automatically shut off when the speaker’s time is up.

Also, obvious, outright lies should earn a microphone cutoff although this would be dependent on a moderator that would be acceptable to both debaters. I can’t see Trump ever agreeing to live fact checking during a debate.

Additionally, Trump appears to be even less mentally capable than he was in the previous debates - I do not believe it would end well for him.

Give them a break. They thought it was an acorn.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Saudis pay his bills. Especially if they think that by helping out he might be able to win the election. In fact, owning the president of the US for only 500m USD seems like it could be worth it to many nefarious characters. The Saudis didn’t seem to have a problem doing a billion dollar deal with his son in law.

Boop

I saw them in December 1978 - it was about 2 months after their debut on SNL with Satisfaction and still before their second album (Duty Now for the Future). I was 17. I still see lots of shows and that Devo show still stands out as one of the best performances of any band I have ever seen. It was loud, raucous, and visually completely over the top. They were completely original and so far ahead of their time as artists. They showed early Devo films on a screen behind them while they played. Nobody was doing multimedia shows like this back then and even now I can’t think of any show that has ever been better in terms of a multimedia experience. Years later I found an audio recording from that show on the Internet. The recording is fair quality but even now when I listen to it, it confirms just how great they were.

Notice, however, that they did not sing the most important lyrics - Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me!

After decades of nearly exclusive use of a bong and very occasional disappointing experimentation with various vaporizers, I never really found a vape device that could replace a bong for me.

That changed about a year ago. I bought a Tiny Might 2 and don’t use anything else now.

The device is expensive but is a great piece of hardware that works very well. Most importantly it can deliver massive hits. With a good cooling stem you can use it anywhere and it will allow you to do a hit that will rival a good bong hit and it tastes so much better.

But the best is that it comes with a glass water pipe attachment (WPA) that allows you to use it with a bong or water pipe. When I’m at home I use it exclusively with a bong. It uses less herb than combustion for the same or better effect with dramatically better flavor. It will produce very thick vapor and will give you a very satisfying bong hit - at higher temperatures it will produce very thick clouds. In fact you can turn the temperature up enough to combust whatever is in the chamber if you are so inclined. Another benefit is that your bong stays cleaner too.

I use the dosing capsules which keeps the device clean and helps a bit with efficiency. Specifically I use .10 grams in a dosing capsule and am often unable to finish in one hit. (I am a runner and can do huge hits) On the same bong with the same herb I would use a little bit more - maybe .13 grams if I were combusting it.

For me it is pretty close to the ideal device. It absolutely improved every aspect of my herbal experience. Of course YMMV but I’m a convert.

I agree that buying a new Surface to install Linux on doesn’t seem like the way to go.

But I get new life out of older machines by upgrading them with Linux. I’ve gotten additional years of solid use out of some older MacBook Airs by installing Linux. Now that I know there are drivers, I’ve got my eye on upgrading an old Surface Pro that I have.

Somebody needs to give him his own board.
