Mitt Romney. Had a chance to do the right thing, but followed the party line.

The impeachment process relies on good faith of both parts of Congress. The Senate, controlled by Republicans, at first denied there was evidence, then when presented with obvious evidence decided that they were okay with it and no punishment was needed on a verdict already established (the actual impeachment from the House). It's like the jurors agreed there was a crime, but the judge said it wasn't a big deal and let him free.

Supposedly Gov. Cooper took his name from Harris' choices for VP because he was concerned Robinson would try to take control of the state while he was away.

The only reason that episode didn't get to me the first time I saw it was because it wasn't realistic enough, i.e. too clean. The comic does a better job. Probably restricted because of the network, although we saw some gruesome stuff even in the first season.

And also important: changes their mind when confronted with evidence that their administration or themselves might have the wrong position on a topic. Some may call that flip-flopping, but it isn't when it follows the facts.

As bad as he is/was, he isn't MAGA. I just see the RINO tag they continue to use as another projection, as they have long moved past any Republican issues or goals. Just make your own party, losers. There's even a couple of loser flags you can adopt, since you fly them anyway.

There is a LLaVA model, as well as a version fine tuned with LLaMA3, Mistral, or phi3. Go to Ollama.com and search for "llava" under models.

When people use the label "woke" I just ask them what they mean by that, since I think an argument should be based on mutual understanding of terms. They never can give me a real answer. It's almost like they need an easy word to throw around to insult things without having to think too hard about it. If they go by any definition of the word in the dictionary, then them being "anti-woke" means they're a clueless moron, and likely racist too since the slang usage originated with racial injustice struggles.

At first I thought that number was far too small, but then realized that was just schools, and not all mass shootings. Each time it proves the point once again, but for me it was Sandy Hook where I realized that if we don't change after that event, we're not going to change easily.

I added easily...initially I didn't, but I think any society can change its ways with enough effort. Kids dying doesn't seem to have the push needed, which says a lot about us.

Trump after hearing the acceptance:

It's the police version of the manager at the service desk telling the cashier to just give them the money back so they'll leave.

 

I have an older robot vacuum that has finally shown some age in its battery. The charger will charge for about 15 mins and then gets an error, but it's enough to do a decent vacuuming of the room if I charge then vacuum, then repeat once more. I can't leave it on the charger now due to the error repeating, so basically I run it dead until the next time.

So my question is, can I continue doing this since it works well enough, or is there potential problems/danger with the battery being at less capacity? I could buy a new battery, they aren't terrible in price, but if it works and is safe, why not continue what I'm doing until it completely gives out?
