538 said Hillary was going to win.

538 models probability, not who wins.

Any discussion of conspiracies on this is not helpful

But just patiently waiting to see is so unsatisfying.

And against human nature.

I gotta say, an AR style rifle is a bad choice for a 130 yard shot like this. A heavier caliber is a far better choice.

The rifle choice definitely contributed to the failure of the attempt.

Balldinger thinks it's all about Trump. Just like the good Trump tool he is.

So he doesn't understand why liberals are upset about an assassination attempt on their political rival.

Bellringer thinks we should laugh and enjoy it, like his cohort did with the Pelosi hammer attack.

Oh, nice strawman
~Bellringer

It's funny watching all of these democrats wish Hitler a speedy recovery.

This is a great point.

Trump is already bilking this for cash. Republicans are euphoric over Trump's bloody fist bump. He's a hero.

The tragedy is over. I hope his ear gets infected.

First thing I thought when I saw this

There's a lot of people who would just rather let stuff rot than let people in need "get it for free".

I was watching Kamala speak yesterday and I thought she did a pretty good job. I haven't seen much of her at all, recently.

One thing Biden has failed to do is foster support for Harris as his predecessor, and we're suffering for it now. Maybe she doesn't want to do it, but I doubt that since she got her job by running for POTUS.

Regardless, going on 4 years now to find a candidate and still no clear Democrat leader for POTUS. That's a massive f-up, and it's not entirely Kamala 's fault.

On a side note, excellent job replacing Pelosi, which is a tall order. Jeffries has done a fantastic job.

Biden's numbers have largely rebounded to pre-debate numbers, despite Democrats doing a better job than the opposition at trashing Biden's age. The Dems sound like a bunch of friggin Bernie bros.

In my own sarcastic way, I find it funny that mainstream Dems are just now figuring out that Biden is old af.

BTW, WTF have you people done to a thread that was meant to be about...

Trans people in sports (the topic, not the trans folks) is the death of at least half of threads on the DR.

On and on, thread after thread, day after day...

I thought there was audio. Mea culpa if not, I might be recalling a recorded phone call.

Due process matters.

Fair point, for better or worse.

It's not a question of whether he's guilty. It's on tape.

If Biden was permitted by the MSM to attack on abortion, Project 2025, Immunity, and authoritarianism for the next 4 months he would win in a walkway

I don't disagree that Biden needs to use stronger language to refute Trump. E.g., Referring to Trump's lies about the attempt to win the election through fraud and violence as "malarkey". FFS.

I don't know about it being because of msm.

Biden did fine. It wasn't great, but good enough.

I predict Biden gains a few points in the next few days. But I don't know if he'll keep them over months.

The polls still have Trump and Biden in a virtual tie, with Trump gaining only a slight edge after Biden's debate disaster.

Biomass is basically carbon neutral at decadal to centurial scales, which are the scales we are experiencing MMGW.

Any argument that says otherwise is alternative (universe) facts.

I will concede there is other air pollution (not CO2) associated with burning biomass. Modern biomass stoves, furnaces, boilers are improving at capturing particulates, reducing risk from pollution.

I've seen woodstoves where you can't tell they're burning by looking at the stack. They're more pricey, so not widely adopted in the US where people who burn wood for heat tend to be broke.

I buy decent rounds (I like Federal) once in a while so I always have newish brass. Generally, I don't like to go more than 4 reloads/casing.

The car antenna myth has been debunked; the antenna will likely get you killed.

Look no further than Elon Musk to see the mental effects from this type of behavior.

Lucky for him, he won't be around to suffer the consequences of his actions.

A better question for Zelensky is, what is his plan to do something for Trump. And it needs to be better than what Putin plans on giving Trump to look the other way.

Should Trump be elected.

On the bright side, now we can spy on them.

This is at least the 4th time I've seen this story

Same story. Different MAGA tool.

The content we create isn't ours anyway. I believe Mr. Rogers owns all my posts, and yours.

I can see why Reddit users are PO'd; like the article says, users go there to interact with people.

But Stack Exchange users upset about chatGPT can pound sand, because the point of SE is to get the demonstrated best answer. If chatGPT comes up with the best answer first, then chatGPT saved time thus $.

But since SE is mostly higher level programming that chatGPT can't figure out without being trained by either the documentation or Stack Exchange, I don't see chatGPT being any better than human generated solutions that must already exist.

The benefit of chatGPT is putting together the whole pipeline, like searching for a bunch of SE questions in a single post, rather than asking a single specific question.

Here's another one that died MAGA-

A Nebraska man who told his Hispanic neighbors to "go back to their country" before shooting seven of them " including four children " in a racially motivated shooting, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, said police.
