PORTLAND (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump’s latest use of the military against US citizens backfired spectacularly on Saturday after Federal troops arrived in Portland, Oregon and immediately formed indie bands.

This is satire.

The image of Chinese vampire is based on the Western part of Hunan province (湘西), where people who died in other places would be transported back to their hometown. Instead of putting the corpse into the coffin, people will tie all the corpses as a row and carry them all the way. At night this looks like they are jumping with hands hanging in front.

I wonder how Team Cherry directed their voice actors, if they had actual written lines they had people say or if they say “give us two minutes of gibberish with <some tone/style/personality/etc> and we'll pick out the parts we like”

Frustrated with #Python packaging, #OpenSource #TextToSpeech.

Just spent an hour trying to get ChatterboxTTS (github.com/resemble-ai/chatter…) running on #Debian 13 #Trixie. From venv/pip version mismatches, to trying to run it on #Docker and getting out-of-space issues, this and that - frustrated. I even thought to myself, I haven't used #Java for awhile - maybe they have #TTS, and decent packaging. Then I saw Gradle/Maven and XML,. and decided - that's enough for today.

A society that tries to force a diverse, always evolving species into a uniform, economically desirable format on behalf of a tiny parasitic class of "rulers", then allows rulers to blame and attack diverse characteristics when they inevitably fail to fit the uniform format, is an artificial, dead-end society that must be removed. Purged for all time before it purges us all.

Yep! The Chinese have won; the americans hit their heads on the wall so often they couldn't remember there was a race.

for me it was never moral nor panic. If people want to pretend to have better vocals, better faces, better entire lives through digital fakery, best of luck to every one of them. The stage is too late for me to even give a fuck lol.

Autotune is such a low risk thing compared to everything else that's happened, to do with people faking everything to become desirable under capitalism. I care more about the weather.



Now it would be a good time for hardware makers and the open hardware community to come up with new great laptop designs.

I'm hoping that more people are working hard to deliver the lightweight and safe software to make them possible.

If we do both, all the bloat makers are left without a business.

in reply to @haitchfive

framework exists, if that meets your needs

I'd like to see a single board computer shell that gives you a screen, keyboard, battery, extra ports and maybe a drive and you and plug in any number of compatible SBCs Into it

in reply to Fluffy Kitty Cat

@fluffykittycat I mean, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have more than just framework, would it?

maybe if there were multiple companies they could work together to make a psuedo-standard & have parts be compatible with eachother?

"I'm so happy," said Colin.
"Make the most of it," said Ford. "Because what I want you to do is nursemaid that package out of the building. They'll probably incinerate you when they find you, and I won't be here to help. It will be very, very nasty for you, and that's just too bad. Got it?"
"I gurgle with pleasure," said Colin.

I went into my garage (to pick up a sick kitten from the shelter) and a bunch of kittens skittered away.

So when I got home, I set a trap for the kittens so I can get them inside, socialize them, and get them adopted. 30 minutes later, the trap had one kitten AND the mom, whom my neighbor has been trying to trap since April.

Do I have a plan to deal with mom? No. I assumed I'd never trap her.

Anyhow, the baby is in the tub, and mom is in a dog crate in my bedroom.

Ugh!

Any person, male or female, famous or not, conservative or liberal, who is on the Epstein lists should be investigated and if found to have raped an underaged kid should be indicted and put in jail.

Unlike #MAGA, we liberals don't try to protect rapists and pedophiles.

I know it's not enough, but watching the video where the world's diplomats walked out on Benjamin Netanyahu felt like maybe we can end the genocide together.

This unknown variety green-when-ripe tomato came in my produce bundle. It has a good tart-sweet flavor, so I have decided to try fermenting and saving some seeds from it for next year. I haven't been able to find out exactly what variety it is, but I suspect it's Green Tiger or Lucky Tiger, an indeterminate heirloom variety. I will soak the seeds for 5-7 days, shaking them every day, then rinse and spread them out to finish drying. We'll see if it worked next year! #nature #plants #tomatoes #gardening #seedsaving


Brilliant episode of #TheSundayShot today. Not to be missed.

Fight to allow #ICE detainees: Federal government joins #PrivatePrison , #CoreCivic, against City of #LeavenworthKS

By Gabe Swartz
Published: Sep. 23, 2025

LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (KCTV) - "In a Topeka courtroom Wednesday, September 24, CoreCivic, with the support of Washington D.C.’s Department of Justice went before a judge along with attorneys representing the City of Leavenworth.

"There, a judge scheduled a date for the two sides to meet again on #November25. In that hearing, CoreCivic will be allowed to present arguement that a Kansas court’s decision barring CoreCivic from housing #ICEDetainees should be overturned.

"The United States Department of Justice [#DOJ] filed a statement of interest on September 22 to address what it called 'an aggressive and unlawful effort' by the City of Leavenworth to interfere with federal immigration enforcement.

"The U.S. District Court was filed against the City of Leavenworth, Mayor #HollyPittman, Mayor Pro Tem #NancyBauder, and city commissioners Griff Martin, Jermaine Wilson, and Edd Hingula.

" 'The United States has a strong interest in countering state and local efforts to harass federal contractors, in the proper application of the Constitution and its Supremacy clause,' the DOJ said in its statement of interest, 'and in the foundational principles that protect the Federal Government from unconstitutional state and local interference.' [Back at ya, FEDS!]

"In March, the City of Leavenworth adopted a resolution preventing CoreCivic from using the former federal prison as an immigration detention center. It then filed a lawsuit asking a judge to block the private prison operator’s attempt to open the facility without its approval.

"The City opened its complaint with a testimonial describing the detention center as an 'absolute hell hole.' It stated that during CoreCivic’s 30 years of operation, there were 'multiple widely publicized scandals resulting from its gross mismanagement of the Facility,' which burdened the City in 'countless ways.'
