“ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES” says the tremendously unpopular president who routinely violates the Constitution presidents swear to “preserve, protect and defend”.

Slate: The Far Right Thinks Sydney Sweeney Killed Wokeness

It’s a common phenomenon, really. Sydney Sweeney is beautiful now, and would be considered so in any era. But because she’s no longer the only type of woman who’s considered beautiful, certain people on the right think they’re being oppressed and the world has gone to hell.

Why have these weirdos zeroed in on Sweeney in particular? There are lots of beautiful white women with big boobs out there—Kate Upton, Blake Lively, Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Emily Ratajkowski, and more. As far as I can tell, part of it seems to be that Sweeney doesn’t shy away from talking about or sharing her body. On Euphoria, she does a lot of nudity, and she’s spoken in interviews about feeling comfortable with it. On SNL, she repeatedly joked about her boobs and even wore a Hooters uniform. The National Post praised Sweeney for “playfully owning her sex appeal with zero apologies” and criticized Vanity Fair for suggesting it might have been nice to give her some material that wasn’t about her beauty.

Tesla is far from alone in flashing the “death cross.” The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both showed it as well on Monday, as the indexes continue to fluctuate in wild and somewhat unpredictable ways thanks to the endless uncertainty that the Trump administration has introduced to the market through its blanket tariffs and “will they, won’t they” exceptions that keep getting tacked on and taken off.

An individual stock hitting this point doesn’t really seem like that big a deal when indexes are getting there.

Between this and his tough on crime nonsense, it feels like Poilievre has given up on winning anyone over and is just trying to hang on to his base. Which is a weird thing to do when your base wasn’t enough to win the last election, but whatever.

The article is out of date. According to this one, the game has been removed from sale on Steam in the UK, Canada and Australia, and the dev is going to withdraw it from Steam entirely.

Zerat Games has announced it will withdraw its sexually explicit visual novel from Steam after it was removed from sale in the UK, Canada, and Australia.

Posted to the game’s Steam page, which is no longer accessible to those who have not previously purchased the game, the developer defended its title but confirmed it would be removed from the platform.

“We don’t intend to fight the whole world, and specifically, we don’t want to cause any problems for Steam and Valve,” the developer said.

Ford backed out of canceling Starlink in February, but as far as I can tell he cancelled for good in March.

CBC’s coverage says his problem isn’t with the law itself:

Blanchet’s criticism follows Carney’s remarks Monday that a government led by him would act as an intervenor at the Supreme Court of Canada should it ever hear a challenge to Bill 96.

Carney said he would do so not because he has a problem with the legislation, but because he opposes any province’s pre-emptive use of the notwithstanding clause to pass laws.

CBC has English coverage, and the law is only described as a “trade irritant”, not anything illegal, which is surprising given the insane claims the Trump admin likes to make:

The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative released its annual list of global trade barriers Tuesday, and it includes Quebec’s controversial language law Bill 96 as a trade irritant between the two countries.

The law isn’t new but it has provisions that kick in in June that seem to be the main issue:

The changes impact the use of French in the judicial system, health care, schools, workplaces and businesses across the provincial economy, but the issue singled out as a trade barrier by the U.S. is how it impacts trademarks and labelling.

“U.S. businesses have expressed concerns about the impact that Bill 96 will have on their federally registered trademarks for products manufactured after June 1, 2025, which is when the relevant provisions of Bill 96 enter into force,” the National Trade Estimate Report said.

When the new provisions kick in this summer, trademarks displayed on a product can only appear in English if there’s no French version of the trademark registered. If the trademark or label contains generic terms or descriptions that are not in French, the trademark must be changed to include a French version of those terms and descriptions.

Companies found to have violated these changes to the law can face fines of up to $90,000 per day for their third offence, while individuals can be fined up to $42,000 a day for their third offence.

“Woke”? Didn’t he get the memo on “DEI” being the new right-wing target?

He loves free speech so much he wants it all to himself.

Maybe he should tell Danielle Smith to stop talking him up to the American right-wing.

He backed down and had talks with US officials. Now that Trump has shown that the talks didn’t accomplish anything Ford might be more inclined to hold his ground next time.

An x1 slot is an x1 slot, the PCIe version will downgrade but there will still only be one lane because that’s all the slot physically has connections for. It will effectively be a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.

Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn’t going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.

Coincidentally(?), today Humble launched a bundle that includes both Pillars of Eternity games.

I was going to start PoE on Game Pass soon, but I think real-time with pause was what turned me off of Baldur’s Gate 1 back in the day, so I guess I’ll wait for the patch.

The reason why those two new PSUs only have one 8-pin connector is because they both sport two 12V-2x6 sockets instead. The company does offer PSUs with up to three 8-pin and one 16-pin power slots.

The only reason why anyone would want to use two 12V-2x6 cables is to have a PC with two Nvidia graphics cards but given that SLI is dead and long gone on the latest generation of GeForce GPUs, dual setups are purely for AI, to let you do your own training and inference.

I’m not sure about the AI angle. The product pages for the PSUs don’t mention AI, and no company is going to make a product for AI and not mention AI.

He’s the founder of the paper, obviously they’re going to give him special treatment.

Their vote made it so that “democrats” have no power in the house, the senate, the office of the presidency, the supreme court, or the dozens of federal agencies that are now being gutted.

Actually, today Senate Republicans needed help from the Democrats to pass a bill to keep the government funded. And 10 Democrats helped them, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

We really ought to stop exports of anything their military needs, for national security reasons. “National security” is one of Trump’s favorite justifications, so I’m sure he’ll understand.

The headline is misleading. The full quote from the CEO is

My first message would be, if you’re not comfortable, don’t let your kids be on Roblox.

That should just be common sense.
