I listened to the Trump announcement he made yesterday. I never listen to him much because I can't stand to hear his voice. It's like scratching a chalkboard to me so I prefer to read the crazy things he is doing.
He said a few words in regards to taking control of DC yesterday. He said "...this will go further", meaning that he will in fact be deploying to other cities. Not a "maybe", but he "will".
So as I have been saying. Be prepared.

Local colleges in my area are seeing big increases in enrollment for trade school. Close to 20 percent increase since last year for some. Quicker entry to the workforce being the driving factor.

I think we should consider changing up the CS degree to incorporate more hands on stuff with tech.
Before I got my CS I got an associates in Network and System Administration. To this day I think that two year degree was more beneficial to my career than the CS. And that kind of knowledge now is needed. A.I. can't run cables, install servers, design and deploy wireless infrastructure in the oil field, etc. And I made six figures doing that just like the programmers with only a CS.
We just need to adjust. Either change the CS or start pushing a different degree to the kids.

When reading this all I can think that it means is "we can control an LLM to say whatever we want". That's a good way to mind fuck people and insert control.
Maybe I'm thinking too far out there but we are making so many mistakes all around right now I just chalk this up as one of those.

Well folks, you know things (at least people who know me) are headed further south in this country if I'm starting to load back up on weapons.
I put my weapons down and got rid of them all after my last deployment years ago. I said I would never own one again unless absolutely necessary.
It is time. And shockingly the wife supports it and she is one hundred percent against weapons.
With my disabilities now it's going to be difficult to do this but I'll be alright.

On Reddit, if you report accounts for making direct threats to harm people in their local town that are protesting in support of Palestine, the Reddit team will just hide the account from you but let the one making threats carry on.
In one case, the person followed up with another threat that I reported and that is when the Reddit admin team hid the account from me but I could still see it from my other accounts.
Mind blowing.

This one is not very intelligent. It was easy to locate where they live based on photos.
Since Reddit didn't take action I forwarded information to local law enforcement. Just wanted to add it to their radar with note about Reddit's choice to let this person go on while just hiding one of my accounts from seeing them.
