the US continues to shoot themselves in the dick

“I don’t think anyone will switch back to diesel trucks,” said the 39-year-old, who has spent the last three years behind the wheel of an electrified hauler. “Nobody wants to return to a last-generation technology.”

“According to a report published by Argentine outlet Infobae, Flavio Bolsonaro allegedly crossed the border into Argentina and planned to continue his journey to the US aboard a private jet. The report said the senator had arrived in Puerto Iguazu from where he was expected to depart for the US.”

Trump and Republicans are restarting their voter fraud misinformation machine ahead of the midterms. When I checked, Republican candidates were implicated in voter fraud at up to 38,000x the public’s rate. If they were actually worried about voter fraud, they’d start with their own candidates.

it'll be great having Hall & Janks back!

Ryan Henkel@ryanhenkel.bsky.social

•Hall says he expects to play tomorrow •Jankowski is expected to rejoin the group tomorrow, but won't be available for the game •No timeline yet for when Nikishin will rejoin the team/ be ready to go. Brind'Amour says he'll have to have a "mini training camp" to get back up to speed

if you're GMET, what're you looking to get out of a trade? already got young guys ready to roll on the wings a center perhaps even tho they've shown resilience w/ the bottom 2 centers out of the lineup but we have both of those guys signed for this season & next deadline cap space = $28M

Sean@cackalackdev.bsky.social

chances he's flipped by the deadline? 🤔

I wonder how long it will take him to get back in the lineup both Reilly and Valimaki have been playing great will be interesting to see what RBA does

Welcome back, Niki 👊 We've signed defenseman Alexander Nikishin to a one-year contract. Details » www.nhl.com

kinda brilliant imo

The 9yo got a “tin can” phone, a “new-school landline for friends”. Basically, a land land via WiFi or Bluetooth that can only make calls to others who have a tin can phone. (Can call regular phones if you wanna pay $10/month). It’s a neat way for he and his friends to chat.

happy to report I had zero problems voting early I asked the folks at my local polling place here in Buncombe Co if there had been any issues so far and they said there's been absolutely zero problems

Andria@andria.bsky.social

Machine worked fine for me on the first day of early voting, but that’s a good caution that thousands of finger pokes could quickly degrade performance. I hated unnecessarily clicking through 10 uncontested district judge races. Causes fatigue before the big amendment questions. #ncpol

I'd be curious what the vaccine protocol is for the team or if they even have one seems to me that if I was in charge flu & covid vaccines would be mandatory to combat this type of thing that can cost the team points any intrepid Canes reporter got an answer?

Walt Ruff (Bot)@notwaltruff.bsky.social

Rod Brind'Amour says the team has the flu bug going around the locker room as they finish their five-game road trip in St. Louis tonight. If their goaltending rotation continues, Pyotr Kochetkov (6-0-0 | 1.98 GAA | .899 SV%) would have the nod.

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

theatlantic.comThe Man Who Saved the Internet YesterdayOndřej Surý was a relatively anonymous volunteer working on PHP security. Then the internet exploded.

Q: Ashley Hinson, who you're campaigning for tonight, says the Ramaswamy ad is 'absolutely terrible' and should be taken down. Why are you defending it? TRUMP: I'm defending it because I know that if that ad was about my mother, you would love every inch of it

WordPress runs 40.1% of all websites in October 2026 which means 40.1% of websites use PHP

Mary Branscombe@marypcbuk.bsky.social

PHP is *visibly* consumer facing even if hardly any users have ever heard of it; that's always going to get more attention than internal business systems even when the threat is just as bad

Lab studies have shown that psychedelics like psilocybin can lower inflammation and may be protective for a range of illnesses. Now, researchers are publishing some of the first data in humans that signals this holds potential for patients with neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease.

For those deciding WHICH day to early vote, typically the second Thursday (that’s TODAY) has the lowest weekday turnout (in 2022 true statewide and in Wake County). Today would be a GOOD day to vote, turnout should ramp up tomorrow, hit the peak of lines Oct 29-31 #ncpol
