If you replace all of those people with cult members, your military will collapse, or become something that the rest of the government can’t actually control

Or both.

I’m referring to my Shortcuts where I can specify on-device or cloud (PCC).

I am practicing that strategy now. I recently upgraded to an iPad Pro M5 (the day price increases were announced, jumped on a deal immediately), upgraded several shortcuts with Apple Intelligence, and am refining them to run entirely on-device instead of in PCC (not using ChatGPT at all).

Or Halloween. Pumpkins on the sign indicate it’s autumn.

My friend refers to them as MAGAts regularly.

Yes, they do not deserve immortality.

I know a couple that equitably changed their last name to Morningstar. Bold, easy to spell, and it is translated from the real German surname Morgenstern, so it’s a real old-world name. You could do something similar and go with Olga Wintersnow or Gretchen Summerday.

At least it’s a quick death. The crater left by the asteroid that theoretically killed the dinosaurs is 100 miles wide. That mushroom cloud covers like a thousand times that direct impact area and will burn until there’s no oxygen.

I would recommend disabling functionality while driving rather than outright not having the phone available because if you need to call for help, you might have to do it quickly. There are apps like Dumb Phone for iPhone and devices like Brick that will do the work for you.

I set a focus mode on my iPhone to trigger when connected to my car’s Bluetooth (not the standard Driving focus mode) that switches the Home Screen to one with only the widgets I’d use for driving, such as Maps, Music, and various playlist shortcuts. Notifications are limited to VIPs. I also have an automation that locks the screen if sensitive apps, like Settings and Wallet, are opened when away from home (I have a shortcut to disable the automation when necessary).

In your situation, I’d expand that to lock out every app except Maps, parking apps, etc., when in driving focus. Audio apps would be locked so I’m not doomscrolling through choices, options would be limited to what’s shown in the widgets and accessible through Siri and/or a preset shortcut. Could add further measures to dissuade me from disabling the lock.

This many years in, I’m sure the replacement crews are as well trained as the crews they replaced on the equipment they couldn’t protect.

“I hope they got him…”

Hubrish. Hubric. Hube.

iPhone 13 mini, which I will stick with until Apple ships another one-handed phone.

Not the worst injury suffered by Abraham Lincoln…

Thames Valley police admitted to Choudhury the arrest “may have been the result of bias within facial recognition technology”. No, the bias wasn’t within the technology.

“…plans in early 2024 to scan “all the books in the world” to teach their AI tool “how to write well”.“ — That’s like teaching a writing course by only reading.

Yes. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adz3040

Totato. I add tomato flavoring to potato a lot, but never the other way around.

His job is U.S. Senator, which he holds because he received the most votes from the state of New York. “Senate Minority Leader” is a position he holds because no one else wants it. It’s not a Constitutional position, like Speaker of the House or President of the Senate, and the U.S. Senate is a house of equals. Being “minority leader”bestows no added power, only responsibility for representing his party when negotiating with the other party. If another Senate Democrat wants to be responsible for negotiating with a senile man-child, they can call for a vote whenever the minority caucus meets.

“Their online messages, along with a recent search of his home, indicated attacks would occur with knives and hammers…” — So, they found no explosives or guns in their suspect’s house and went with whatever potential weapons they could find.
