Yep, Ars is great. The hate Elon gets in the comments is always a pleasure.

Have you seen the Asianometry YouTube channel? It’s technical topic video essays that are informative and really well made.

At least you didn’t bring an acorn with you.

Yep! I came here to mention The Heroic Trio and Wing Chun.

The X accounts of several prominent journalists and leftist pundits were suspended from the site, formerly known as Twitter, on Tuesday morning with no clear explanation.

The suspensions affected several journalists and commentators, including Texas Observer journalist Steven Monacelli, Ken Klippensten of The Intercept, podcaster Rob Rousseau, and Alan MacLeod of MintPress News. The landing page for their accounts says it’s been suspended, but does not give any explanation as to why. A message on the profiles simply states “X suspends accounts which violate the X rules.”

The ban didn’t just hit journalists either. Several prominent-left leaning accounts were also purged from the website, including the account for the TrueAnon podcast and @zei_squirrel, a cartoon squirrel that tweets media criticism of figures like Glenn Greenwald.

This is par for the course though. We shit on Digg for years after everyone had migrated over!

Happy new years! 🎉

Yep, he won a single electoral vote in 2020.

Yes.

Zuckerberg is here to annihilate us. That’s his sole motivation.

The project still lacks an API meaning there’s no mobile apps, so I imagine that hinders adoption.

That’s surprisingly good! 🥔🎄

You know the single greatest thing I starting doing in 2023?

Sleeping with my noise cancelling AirPods. Not listening to anything, just using their inherent abilities.

I sleep like a fucking rock now!

When nothing at all sounds good but youre in need of protein, try soy milk. It’s cold, smooth and easy to get down.

Yes. They only show start menu ads and bullshit like this to standard users.

Sanders in her first year on the job has an approval rating of 48% according to voters asked about her performance. This is the lowest in the last 20 years, but higher than U.S. Senators Tom Cotton (42%) and John Boozman (40%) as well as President Joe Biden (33%).

In his last year in office, former Governor Asa Hutchinson garnered a 59% approval rating and never had an approval rating lower than 57%.

And in their first year in office, the three previous governors had an approval rating of at least 57%, with Hutchinson at 57%, Gov. Mike Beebe at 70%, and Gov. Mike Huckabee at 66%.

The last time an Arkansas governor had a lower approval rating was in 2003 when Gov. Huckabee had 47% support. That would jump to 58% one year later.

Good job dummies. You got exactly what you voted for, another Huckabee flunky.

The article also says Biden had a 33% approval rating. JFC. GDP is up 5% and unemployment is like 3-4%.

This comic is seared into my brain. Fuck capitalism.

I paired up with a rural postal delivery guy driving late at night once and we stayed together until the interstate. Hope he’s still doing okay.
