You’re suggesting that this is a stunt by Talarico’s campaign or by Kimmel?

I’ve read that DNS level blocking often doesn’t stop this kind of telemetry because it goes directly to an IP without a DNS query involved.


Being sexual doesn’t automatically make it offensive, it just makes it unprofessional. As software that is seeking widespread adoption, its acceptance in professional environments matters.

What makes it offensive is that it’s a slur for handicapped people. That’s the origin of the BDSM term and the use that was popularized by the character in Pulp Fiction that was specifically referenced by the creators of GIMP.


It was created in the US and named in specific reference to the offensive meaning of the word, so I would say that makes it pretty relevant.

“This extremist nonsense that I just spewed is totally real, guys. Everyone agrees with me. You don’t need to ask them.”
I dunno, shithead. Seems to me like that interpretation is seriously contested by the Trump v Barbara ruling that shot down your last stab at this. It also seems pretty seriously contested by a grade school understanding of the text of the 14th amendment.
They’re showing 98%counted, with 8,000 votes left to count, and Boebert would have to win 70.3% of the remaining votes to catch up with Laubacher. Somehow that’s not a sure enough thing for AP.
