We got half the needed signatures to put it on the 2022 ballot. The ruling was 2 weeks before the signature deadline back in 2022. No way this wasn't making it.
Think if Twitter for government documents. If the pure text can't fit in a floppy, nobody's got the time to read it.
Next up, official woodblock stamps that every employee working on a project has to stamp every official page.
That is what I was saying. I don't think either will last the full term.

Jan 1st, 2029, neither Trump nor Biden will be president of the United States.
Didn't J.K. Rowling do this with Harry Potter? She wrote the first book with simple words and slowly upped the difficulty every installment. Being a teacher for developmentally disabled kids, she knew that some of the books they were being forced to read were like throwing new swimmers into the deepend.
I got the time-zone wrong and missed the first hour. Biden seemed fine to me - what the heck did I miss in the first hour?
Since when was this court consistent with prior rulings?
Remember when SCOTUS threw out laws against gays? Then a bunch of states passed constitutional amendments against gay marriage? Then SCOTUS came and said "Na, none of that means anything, gay marriage for all!"
I feel like I am on the other side of that process this time: SCOTUS throws out Roe, bunch of states do constitutional amendments, SCOTUS rules "Na, none of that means anything, all abortions are now illegal!"
Does it lead to the death of all Hamas? If yes, Hamas will not be on board. If no, Israel will not be on board.
Just look at India's court system (or the US immigration court system). Backlogs as far as the eye can see! Selective enforcement mixed with laws criminalizing everyone means those in charge can pardon or prosecute whomever they want.
That is until AI gets beyond the toddler with no object permanence stage and suddenly the backlog starts disappearing and all the politicians start retroactively legalizing everything.
Sort of makes me want to write that novel I've been putting off where a website pops up with a list of social security numbers + date + GPS + criminal statute code, and it turns out to be a list of the biggest crimes committed by each politician. No one knows where the list came from, but as each politician resigns, new sets of numbers pop up for their replacement.
Ah, but Robbin Williams didn't go on a year later to actually BECOME president.
Is that a 65% chance of a Trump electoral college or popular vote victory? I think last time it predicted that Hillary would win the popular vote. Then she did.
"Biden can’t be persuaded let alone pressured"
Which sums up both Biden's strength and all his problems in one statement.
They want liberals dying at a rate higher than conservatives. Ever wonder why people tend to be more conservative when they get older? It is not like aging is changing people's minds.
Could we seal Biden in a germ-free bubble a week before the next debate? The last thing you want Biden sounding like is sickly - he had a cold today and COVID last time they debated in 2020.

Gave up on ICON/PaMir/PiFu/Eva3D ever working on my computer and tried to make it work on my own.
Workflow: Stable diffusion, Automatic1111. -Text2Img something that your model know the back and front of with a prompt. -Take image, feed into Depth map script, output Left/Right stereogram -Cut Stereogram into two pieces, feed either left or right into img2img with same prompt, low but non-zero de-noising, and depth map script again. Repeat on same side.
Still need to play with the settings (de-noising and depth shift), up the resolution, change the prompt a bit while rotating. Hope someone else has better luck than I did. Anyone have a better workflow?
