Bud, if you don’t know how to read and understand your own logs, I can’t step through this entire thing with you. It’s literally telling you exactly what is wrong.
Disgusting. Ron DeSantis needs to be put in jail at a work camp in Florida.
Try disabling the metadata downloaders.
This is a face off against Donald Trump, friend. WTF are you even talking about?
The chrome instance is commented out…
Michelle Obama.
Kinda joking. Kinda not. Seems to be universally beloved, and has direct knowledge of the office and job.
I don’t think he’d be a popular pick because he doesn’t have the name recognition. I’m sure they’re looking for a heavy hitter with big name recognition.
Well, you’re right about the fighting part, but wrong on the attempts.
Dozens of states tried to pass election integrity bills after the Trump fiasco. Few got it passed due to Republican intervention.
Same in Congress in both the 117th and 118th. Attempts to make a bipartisan bill always fails because of GOP additions that are absolutely insane.
The opposite has happened in GOP controlled state sessions in places like Texas, Missouri, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan, where bills have been passed that are very obviously skewed towards the GOP controlling the seats, and getting the benefit of either limiting Democrat control directly, or limiting future abilities of such.
It’s absolutely foul, and though the Democrats are working hard to fight these things, it looks like abject failure before any real attempts can even be made, which voters seem to see as weakness. Maybe that’s just a defeatist point of view though.
Yeah. More people involved need to be seeing jail.
Yep. That was a property from the Master System and Game Gear that got a 3D revamp for DC, but don’t think it was really very popular to begin with, so naturally wasn’t a huge selling point.
Nobody can fight them right now though. Executive Order wouldn’t work, and Dems don’t have enough control in Congress. Dems need both to pass legislation that the Republicans definitely don’t want passed.
Republicans have done nothing but fight this type of legislation for decades, because they know they will never win the general populace come election time. This is why they Gerrymander, this is why they pass laws allowing themselves to unilaterally throw out election results, and this is why we’re seeing the Supreme Court making insane rulings right now. It’s all to try and disenfranchise the majority population opinion, and try to rewrite it with indoctrination.
So, yeah. I can’t watch the full hour, but I skipped through and get the point.
Essentially, there used to be some guardrails around direct advertising in movies and TV after everyone selling ad time in the 50’s-70’s got multiple generations hooked on cigarettes and booze. Then it shifted from smokes to Coca-Cola which was in literally every movie in the 00’s, and now it’s websites.
The trick is, you can leave these brands anywhere in sight on screen, as long as you don’t directly tell the audience they need to buy it.
Bottle of Aviator Gin in a bar shot, sure.
Brawny paper towels in a janitorial closet, why not?
You just can’t draw attention to it. It’s a foolish distinction now because it’s been getting abused for so long, but until there are direct bans on all brands on screen - which seems kind of impossible - this will be a thing. Even more so now that you can quickly work AI generated billboard scenes in wherever you want without having to CGI or film it anymore. Sucks.
Edit: This is a perfect (though comedic) example of how it still works - https://youtu.be/5OHxP7pnwPg
Sadly, it’s about the only thing you can do to fight an idiotic crusade against you and our totally legal way of life. Infuriating this is necessary, but I’m glad they’re taking up the cause and representing a group who needs representation.
AGAIN.
This is not “phoning home” as claimed. It is not a SECURITY RISK as claimed. It is a privacy want/complaint/nag at the very VERY least. THIS IS ALSO NOT A PRIVACY FOCUSED PROJECT.
Refer to the original comment, and realize this was being run in a container. So, what…it’s a risk to have libcurl ide tidied on your server? Your IP address is so damn private and important? Literally nobody cares.
Y’all need to get better hobbies, seriously. Probably just need to get off the Internet if this is the stuff causing consternation in your lives.
I’m laughing my ass off that you even try to source Nate Silver. Member when he was right those two times a long ass time ago? 🙄
You checked his accuracy rate, friend? It’s not good. He makes prediction models, buddy. Well, then after they aren’t very good, he writes a ton about how they were actually great and everyone misunderstood what the data REALLY was saying.
Yeah, that’s why all these college campuses have had protests. They don’t care.
As literally every single outlet has already pointed out, plenty of other candidates have had the same issue, and come right back from it. Y’all need to chill out.
Friend, please listen to reason.
The “code” you linked to is not functional code of any sort. Not to be nitpicky, it’s just an HTML image tag, so its Markup at best. All you did was stop the loading of an SVG image. The fact that they source it from their own domain tells you everything: they have a script that runs to check the current number of stars, then generates this image that reflects that. SVG is an image format. It’s really standard.
All your other points you’re making because you do not have much experience in the software realm, which I’m not saying to be dismissive or anything at all, I’m simply illustrating that all the points you’re questioning or mentioning are 100% standard.
Also, you might want to freak out about the social badges being sourced in this as well. This isn’t a “privacy first” project or anything. They aren’t doing anytweird, you’re just misunderstanding some things.
That’s the best time to market. They simply didn’t have the big IP that Nintendo and Sony had been marketing at the time. Sega at that time led with Sonic - as they always do - and then a few properties that were really fun and original, but required an expensive console to even try and get aquatinted with.
This is not even bringing up the prior hardware failures they had launched. They just miscalculated on the popularity of Sonic globally. It’s not enough to get people with consoles that are working just fine and still have years of games to come to switch.
I’m not saying this is the fix. This is a debugging step to see what the issue is if it’s not sourcing the local metadata.
