It’s the only way that companies will really take the safe guarding of customer data seriously.

It’s such a weird concept of state-based registration for expat voting in US elections. Some people are American citizens and have never actually lived in a state but gain registration rights through a parent’s residence.

Any idea of how many of those US citizens are eligible to vote in Michigan? You have to have had some connection to a state to be registered in that state.

Yeah, yeah, Chrysler made some really interesting concepts during that time that didn’t progress beyond concept.

Wild, I just loaded the really awful instructions for a sprinkler water timer. It did a nice job there too complete with snarky comments about the poor images in the instructions.

This makes me wonder how many of those university extension courses for “busy professionals” are actually run by third parties.

That may be the other option.

Given the extreme weather we are seeing, it is worth noting that Project 2025 wants to do away with NOAA, and believes the main problem with climate change is that people are too alarmed about it. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/what-manda...

Still, it is remarkable to be so open about targeting agencies for producing research. Mandate for Leadership says that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration should be “broken up and downsized” because it is “one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry.”

The “climate change industry”? See, there are some industries that Republicans want to put out of business!

The risks of climate change or credible government response are not accepted in Mandate for Leadership. Indeed, the word “climate” cannot be uttered without an some language to emphasize that its all exaggerated, e.g., “climate extremism,” “radical climate policy,” “extreme climate policies,” or “climate policy fanaticism.” Climate is also presented as akin to DEI or Critical Race Theory “and other woke ideas”— artifacts of liberal brainwashing, where efforts to solve some underlying societal problem is a much greater danger than the problem itself.

My wife likes the blue paint… but that’s about it.
