Pretty sure ICE agents see it as they get to shoot rubber bullets and throw tear gas at people protesting racism. They aren't being forced to do it, they're being given permission.

NGA’s mission is to represent all 55 governors

For anyone else wondering what's represented beyond the 50 states, the NGA's Governors page includes the governors of American Somoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

I expect that not only will the current FCC decline to do anything about this, the complaint may have given Trump a new business idea.

Trump got her moved to minimum-security, so they could certainly move her back to a more jail-y jail.

However, the only reason I can see for using it over Fedora Silverblue is that Origami ships with a well-configured, ready-to-use COSMIC Desktop out of the box, rather than GNOME.

However, Epic Game Store only actually exists on Windows, and it’s on iOS in the EU.

Your information seems to be outdated. On the EGS download page I get an "Install on Windows" link with text below it "Also available on Mac OS, Android, iPhone (EU only) and iPad (EU only)."

$24.95/yr seems high. Are you looking at a specialty TLD? I paid around 10 USD/yr for a .com with Cloudflare, and 12 CAD/yr for a .ca with Canspace.

Trump has invited the leaders of 60 nations to join the Board of Peace with the stipulation that each contribute $1 billion dollars.

It's not "Join the Board of Peace or get tariffs", it's "Give me a billion dollars or get tariffs"

 

While mired in controversy from all sides, the Walt Disney Company has unveiled price hikes for Disney+ and its other streaming services today.

As of October 21, Disney+ will cost up to 20 percent more, depending on the plan you have. Disney+ with ads is increasing from $10 to $12 per month, while the ad-free plan is going from $16 to $19 per month. The annual, ad-free plan will go from $160 to $190.

 

There was a time when sneering at international law would not have been a good look for someone aspiring to be Prime Minister of Canada.

But, charting new territory, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre contemptuously called Justin Trudeau “woke” for indicating Canada would abide by a ruling of the International Criminal Court (ICC) — a court that Canada helped establish to punish war criminals.

Poilievre specifically rejects the legitimacy of the ICC charges against Netanyahu, on the specious grounds that Netanyahu was democratically elected.
