Seems like some straightforward filtering for Tay was in order.

The problem is the programs, not the people.

Yup. Wide variations.

These laws are just cruel.

Dire warnings for the future, but also some hope as renewable growth continues. I'm glad he tied Syrian refugee crisis into it.

This is a nice little pipeline for converting screen captures to GIFs. I adjusted the delay up a bit.

I would love to see some heavy allegory with aliens for all of our current big problems.

Now they're afraid of what they unleashed...

Solid opposition to the order, and a nice general argument in favor of code as protected speech. I also liked the footnote that there have been 253 billion Apple ad impressions worldwide since October 2014.

Sounds like it could be a mess. Not sure if that's a good or bad outcome for me as someone who generally opposes the party.

If it sounds like a fascist...

Decent overview; I think the fake ad at the end does a good job emphasizing why security matters, but it's still hard for regular people to grasp.

Racists who liked it better when no one pointed out that they're racist.

I think the connection to Wallace is apt — the person was a footnote in my history education, but the impact has been huge. Same for Trump and Trumpism?

Very interesting chain. It's one thing to have the right to First Sale, but another altogether when you didn't pay anything for the copy in the first place.

I know very little about Savage, but it makes sense to me that he and Trump can tap into the anger at a system that has failed millions and redirect it against The Other to sell books and win elections.

This sounds like a huge project. I didn't realize they haven't found the fuel yet.

I thought it gets better...

I think this makes a good point about Trump's trade populism, but discounts the race component too much.

Well the government's lawyers certainly hit back on every one of Apple's arguments; I just don't think that they understand the distinctions between types of technology, or the implications of device security.

This is a good observation, and why my heart wants Sanders (mostly) while my mind knows Clinton is probably best.

This is pretty great. I still think of the Orgy cover first.

Even Bruce gets confused on the technical details!

Boom.

Rolling out Hair Force One

Catchy. And there is definitely some tension in some of the movies!

This is terrible, and exactly why I oppose oil trains coming here (and why we need to just leave it in the ground).

They built a machine tuned to select him, or someone like him.

Yup. They tapped into something nasty to oppose Obama, and now they can't control it.

Yup.
