Looks like it. Downtown SF got a lot quieter over the last few years.
Haha that would be amazing, but no, it's from bit shifting in computation.
Like brand new electronics.
It was open up until 2009 so this was full of PlayStation 3s and Playstation Portables at the time. I worked not too far from there so I was pretty sad to see it go.
All disposable packaging needs to be compostable and all non-disposable packaging needs to be recyclable. Literally the only way to keep us from pushing this problem onto future generations.
My beautiful chungus.
I'm the youngest of five, however, I am also a twin. Our oldest brother learned a valuable lesson from us: you can't keep your eyes on us both at the same time.
Again, this is my personal opinion as I never claimed to be the authority, I simply did not agree with your statement "I think the majority of the voting public, the SPLC, The ACLU, the WHO, and others all disagree - the global West is backsliding and progress is being removed."
If you're seeing the general public supporting these bigoted policies, then please inform me. The big thing I see the ruling class pushing unpopular policies while lying to the general public; the unrest is palpable.

I think you're right! Ellen was the big one that I recall, but there definitely was a lot more people who were all able to come out around the same time due to the momentum.
We are 100% seeing the ruling class put their thumbs on the scale, but I am reluctant to support the claim that the majority of the voting public wanted this. Even the people who voted for Trump were anti-Project 2025; granted, they still voted for him. Trumps policies are tanking his popularity, I just don't see the public support you are claiming. I see more protests and public action in the last year than in the last two decades.
In 1997 Elen DeGeneres came out as gay publicly; there was pushback, but I seem to recall she either kept her job as a show host or was back at it quickly afterwards. We now had openly gay people hosting TV shows in very visible roles. So yeah, we had a similar thing to Channel Four though it was a decade later.
The fear that the world has passed them by and if they just fight harder, that it will somehow go back to rewarding their entrenched behaviors. You see this in climate change denial, stripping of rights, and just a general push to roll back the clock. Society has moved on, even in deep red states do we have people standing up for trans rights. I *cannot* recall when that last happened in the US.
Gay people can host TV shows, hold public jobs, teach children, etc without *extreme* social pushback. You used to get blackballed by society if you were outed. We're not back *that* far yet, but what I see now is an artificial pushback by the far right to create a hostile environment. I tend to think of "extinction behavior" when seeing the last 10 years of the rise of the right. We may be seeing an "extinction burst" where they are no longer as rewarded for bigotry, so they double down on it.
I tend to use Ellen DeGeneres (as much of a pos she is) coming out and *keeping her job* as my sort of "pivot point" for our social tolerance to homosexuality (I think this was '97). Sure, it was still common to use slurs though it was now trending towards socially unacceptable now that society had started to slowly accept homosexuals in very visible roles.
I recall how widely acceptable homophobia was before 90s in the US, how being "found out" was a career death sentence. They were seen widely as sexual deviants who were often associated with drugs, disease and violence, which was reinforced in our media narratives. It's comforting now seeing a strong support for the LGTBQAI+ community; hopefully we can have more kids grow up feeling like they don't need to hide who they are out of fear.
Where do you think the Nazi's got some of their ideas from? They saw segregation and the Jim Crow laws in the US and went "hey, we can do that better."
And I'm sure somehow the insurance company will still find you at fault.
Unfortunately for AI billionaires, they live in reality.
It had a definition in the black and minority communities as far back as the late 1930s before it was cooped as a slur by white nationalists. It mean being aware of the racism and social injustice in our culture and baked into our justice systems. The nazis purposefully muddied the definition due to their ignorance and designating anything they disagreed with as "woke."
Saying it has no real definition feeds into the narrative that people are upset over nothing, which is absolutely not the case
We had a hive move into our apartment one summer and it only took them 2-3 months to make something this size; they found a gap in the roof and moved into one of the exterior walls. If you put your ear up to the wall you could hear them making sounds like popcorn. You could even feel the heat coming off of the wall.
Nah, my guess is they will stonewall as long as they can until he kicks the bucket and they try to sweep everything inconvenient under the rug while righteously claiming that it is "taboo to speak ill of the dead." Then they'll just continue the same oligarchy with a new fresh face of the party.
Or camped on air mattress in winter with no liner.

Look at the debris from the cardboard boxes and the explosive force that is "bursting" them open. Boxes look to be taped shut, but they come apart at the seams. It's such a flimsy container to turn into chaff when burst, but strong enough so that people can unsuspectingly pick it up and run away with it. The debris look like someone took a box cutter to them. Then you have the uniformity of the "prompt" and actions that occur in every video. Is it paint or powder or both? AI can't decide.
Holy crap there are a lot of ring camera AI videos going around. I'm pretty sure *none* of these are real. Don't fall for the bullshit.
Holy crap those are dusty with trichomes. What's the strain?
For their own narrative they *need* his policies to fail; the last thing they want is an example of socialist policies improving the lives of citizens.
