McConnell: Democrats would end the filibuster if they sweep on Election Day "I don’t think they’re kidding. I think they’ll do it"
  • Ok, sounds great. Require an actual speaking filibuster if desired. No more procedural bullshit that enabled McConnell to appoint dozens of judges when Schumer foolishly agreed to kill the judicial filibuster.

    Flip the House, hold the Senate and dump the obstructionist tool. Also the filibuster.

  • Does working for rich make you rich?
  • Years ago I worked for some quite wealthy people managing their affairs.

    Their bank balance in ONE bank account was in the $5-10m range day to day.

    They were cheap as hell. Suuuuper stingy with pay and spending on anyone else, but extravagant in their own lives.

    One of them threw away the “ugly” custom built hurricane shutters on their waterfront mansion despite it canceling their insurance because they’d rather lose the house than have the (quite subtle) shutters on the windows.

    Contractor didn’t care. As they put it “I already got paid”. Literally landfill for custom fitted rolling shutters.

    Rich people are weird.

  • After charger, Apple removes USB-C cable from the box
  • I've used the same cables for years with no problem. You don't yank them out of ports using the strand, you don't stress the connectors by winding tightly or making them bend at sharp angles and just treat them with care.

  • Whoopsiedoodle!
  • Well sure I’ve never tested it going highway speed but if I don’t fully close the door and try to pull out of a parking spot it moves like an inch then says “nope”. But my post was to at least alert the driver that the thing was not locked down - that seems pretty simple.

  • My ten year old basic model sedan will jerk to a halt and put the transmission in Park if I try to move with the driver door not fully closed. I’d think a semi would be able to detect and alert that the damn dumper (?) is extended. Wow.
