Aside from mentioning the reconciliation process (which I agree could have been included), that's not even close to actual journalism. It might fly on from one of the talking heads spewing endless opinions shows on cable, but reputable outlets do not "report" that way.

Quality outlets also do not (or should not, anyway) point blame in such a brazen manner. They should report the facts and list some potential effects of those, but they shouldn't tell you how to feel or sink into the petty bickering of the subject matter.

I'm old-school and grew up before the plague of 24-hour cable news and worked for two different newspapers, so I'm, I guess, a little more sensitive to the sensationalist crap that gets called "news" these days. I guess what I'm saying is that this article passes my "sniff test".

Naturally, this is all the Democrats fault for not letting the republicans steamroll them with their anti-American (and frankly, anti-human) policies. Great job, media.

(Emphases about blaming the media mine) Seriously, WTF? What other way could they have reported that? They're refusing to back the bill without ACA extensions and repealing the cuts to health care programs. As far as reasons go and playing hardball, that's a pretty good one (or two).

And if NPR didn't include that info about Democrats refusing to back the R spending bill, then you all would be complaining that "Oh, the Democrats do nothing blah blah whine whine blah both sides".

As far as "the media" goes, NPR is pretty top-tier. I swear, I am starting to think half the people here just do not understand how journalism works.

He could just be on vacation? Someone just pointed out earlier today he hasn't posted in 2 weeks.

No clue, but it very easily could have come from the one I grew up in.

The_Picard_Maneuver is MIA, so I dove into my ~2014 era meme folder and am posting some golden oldies

The only thing worse than that is emailing them a simple boolean question and then your phone rings.

I don't think it's the fact that certain parts of the country in Sinclair footprints will not see it on TV. It's that Sinclair is wielding it's massive footprint as a [partisan] weapon.

Lol, I think that's how I learned it was possible, too. yt-dlp uses the title as the filename, and all of the emojis came along with it. Was trying to rename them from terminal, but couldn't do much when half the filenames started with the fire emoji lol.

Probably just smells like old upholstery. Taxidermied animals don't really have a smell

I've recently learned that in Linux, you can use emois in filenames. I died a ~~little~~ lot inside when I learned that.

I think I'm just gonna get some Pi Zeros + cameras and just roll my own. Probably use the NoIR versions and some cheap IR illuminators. Feed those into Zoneminder.

Bonus points if I can find some old CCTV cameras, gut them, and fit the pi camera to those optics.

That's a real hero move, and I appreciate it.
