Harry: "Whenever I search for "Kim and Paris" I get these two random people, who even are they? It seems one is a Cardassian?"

How do you pronounce it?

Interesting time in politics. I’m starting to think that Harris is the best candidate for us at this point of our history. It makes the choice so much clearer for those who are chronically and almost irremediably shortsighted and believe orangeade is a viable choice.

As a man who believes that kindness should be paid forward, I feel that my old oscilloscope, this FNIRSI model that cost about $200, should go to someone more disadvantaged than I am.

It's fine for any single signal under about 25-30MHz. Stick to under 10MHz if you're using both channels. It has two channels and a function generator output that does various waveforms. It's the absolute bare minimum of functionality that you could call a digital storage oscilloscope and not be lying. It comes with two probes, and will take any USB port for power.

It's not a fake scope or anything, it's just the extreme low-end of DSO functionality. If you want to play with 80s computers, it's fine for that. For the stuff I did when I bought it, it works fine, but as my abilities and projects expand, it no longer meets my needs is all.

And for you, provided you're in need of it, it's free. I'll even pay the shipping. Just promise to learn to use it properly, and not rely exclusively on the auto-configuration.

I would prefer that this go to someone known to me, but if nobody who fits that description needs it, I'll find someone.

Open question: Do you think Trump's next bloody-coup will be successful? The first bloody-coup was quite a good effort, but didn't yield the desired result, I wonder if Trump has learned anything from the experience, and will stage a better, more effective bloody-coup going forward.

What's most fascinating to me about the discourse around the #NABJ Trump interview is how many people think Scott's opening question was "hostile". It really reflects the reality of so many #BIPOC folks-- where literally just saying that someone has done something racist (especially in the workplace), even just repeating back their own racist words/ actions, (no matter *what* tone you use) gets you labeled "hostile" or "aggressive" or "angry". Saying the question was "hostile" speaks volumes.

Fuck unity by the way, if we win I'm flying a "Trump Lost LOL" flag and telling my neighbors to lick taints.

Friendly reminder that when an old white dude calls a black person β€œnasty” or β€œrude”, what they’re really saying is

β€œyou’d better learn your place and show me some respect”

It’s a dog whistle. Don’t let that shit go unchallenged.

"I didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black and now she wants to be known as black," he said at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on Wednesday.
