Very true, but there comes a point where that no longer matters.

Please get out and vote and get things to that point, my American friends!

I was just glad to hear that the Democrats have a plan this time for what happens after Trump declares victory in the face of “nothing decided yet”.

I hope it includes Fox News.

Well, I definitely wasn’t expecting that… and some of the people polled have already voted.

That means the British Indian Ocean Territory will cease to exist, along with the .io domain and countless websites.

What will happen is that the International Standard for Organization (ISO) will remove the country code “IO.” IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) which creates and assigns top-level domains, uses this code to determine which top-level country domains should exist. Once ‘IO’ is removed, IANA will start the process of retiring .io, which involves stopping new registrations and the expiration of existing ‘.io domains.‘

I don’t get this: shouldn’t Mauritius gain ownership of .io? Russia has .su, and it’s been over 30 years since the Soviets existed.

[edit] also, since there’s .whateveryouwant these days, why not just make .io a non-country TLD? That’s how it’s used anyway.

Which book is their book? Obviously not the one they wave around as a magic talisman but never read more than a few carefully selected sentences out of at a time….

Also, Jesse Watters has had documented affairs. Is Jesse secretly voting Harris?

I’m pretty sure the venue is keeping that bill open specifically so that Trump can never return.

Nobody voting for face-eating leopards expects to have THEIR face eaten.

Go into politics — become part of the problem so you can become part of the solution.

Recognizing that every choice is loss is the first step.

The second step is figuring out the best course of action to minimize the losses. This step can be VERY hard.

And we all get upset.

What makes you think you can’t do anything about it?
