Republicans don’t want to eliminate guns in schools, they want to eliminate schools. School shootings serve their agenda of pushing white suburban families to send their kids to parochial and private charter schools to weaken support for public schools.

As I like to say, he’s easy to manipulate, but impossible to control. It’s *our* job to manipulate him—so that *they* can’t control him.

@w7voa Till the day I die, I will never stop being completely flabbergasted by how this isn’t a blow out.

@jason Waiting on final FCC certification - early adopters (post kickstarter) expected this month with general availability maybe by end of the year

@jason Yeah, I want that one so bad!

@corruptian Interesting - I was under the impression that Georgia’s government continued to press for reunification of their land. Will research more!

Curious, why didn’t Georgia (the country) move in to it’s occupied territory like the very second Ukraine moved into Russia?

@jason So this is a Team Cluster 4 blade kit by computeblade.com!! It’s been really fun backing them in kickstarter land, although, as I mentioned, one of my blades bit it due to a manufacturing bug that they’ve addressed. It’ll get replaced so not worried, just annoying. I’ve got that paired with a Frankenstein 45 Drives HLS15 with an AMD EPYC 32 cores with 256GB RAM and 8TB of HD :D

Working on my cluster today using my 4 node computeblade.com kit that I backed. Such a great set of hardware! I did encounter the voltage bug though and fried one of my CM4s but support was on it so fast! Love these guys, highly recommend.

@tchambers @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews@friendica.opensocial.space And yet…it really shouldn’t be. How this isn’t a blow out is really sad.

@ProPublica That should be a crime that lands someone in jail. One one think their overall response should land people in jail, but definitely withholding video. Those ass holes.
