TWENTY-TWO YEARS AGO.

"On January 22, 2003, the U.S. Census Bureau... numbers showed that the Hispanic population of the United States had increased by 4.7 percent since the last count, officially making Hispanics the largest minority group in the country."

I'm thankful my parents left rural areas and I lived in a town where I could walk and/or take a bus to several libraries.

"an AI-powered robotic cart"

It's AI-powered in the same way that a Roomba is "AI-powered." 🤖💩
It's sad so many people never experienced 1980s MTV.

Or VH1, especially once MTV started to go into this hellhole too.

And when those both were gone to the dogs, if you lived close enough and had certain cable companies, Much Music.
Ah, I see he looked familiar because of Poldark ads.

"lost"
Byers says security footage around the Broadview facility is kept for 28 days before it overwrites itself, but adds he's trying to work on preserving footage for longer.

"Up to the 18th has been lost," he says of footage from early September.

How'd you get in my house to spy on me?

“There’s a lot of secrecy and game playing right now. I’m sick of it.”

New from @stevanzetti.bsky.social: The Observer has repeatedly requested an update from ICE about James Rodden’s employment. Three members of Congress have also demanded answers, without results.
ICE Still Won't Answer Questions About Prosecutor with White Supremacist X Account
Congressman Marc Veasey arrived at an ICE facility Monday in his latest attempt to follow up on the Observer's reporting.

I mean, is it wrong that they try to play you? 😏

I can not emphasize this enough. Stop putting cameras in things. Stop buying things with cameras on them. We need to fix some very basic things before we even get back to talking about the internet of things. Just, absolutely no.

Presumes the possible existence of an exculpatory context.
Ellis says she was concerned about reports of federal agents pointing weapons at bystanders.

Harvick: "Without knowing the context, your honor, of that situation… I'd have to have more information."
Interesting. This was the only way I was able to get these 2 things to post together. And also to not alter the ALT on the GIF.
If only everyone would gtf off what REALLY makes Bezo s' money, AWS.

Will everyone learn that after today?

No. Just like every other time huge sections of internet tools/pages have gone down because too many depend on a single private corporation.
I wonder if it's the GIF? *testing*

I removed the GIF of a certain bald guy leader of today's outage and this went through.
I keep trying to post something and I keep getting an "Internal Server Error." But this went through? 🤔

How many classes today were canceled because a whole suite of EdTech services are built atop AWS?

You know what platform never crashes?
I'm pretty sure they're frolicking in the mountains or something. 😄

How in the world could they be "found to be illegally present in the United States" at the scene?
Ellis asks about the use of tear gas that day.

Harvick begins to explain: "After the accident, two subjects fled on foot, which agents pursued and apprehended both subjects, who were found to be illegally present in the United States, we then had a scene, an accident scene, crime scene."
