That's just your status quo bias.
This video explains how it's remarkably better.

A search index isn't a public facing search engine or service.
They're building a common database for them to both use, as well as others.

So trying to beat Brave or any other search provider, isn't the goal of this project.
It's about creating a new index, Brave, or Bing, or other search providers could use if they wanted.

Oh! Now I get it. You're talking about something I wasn't. It's true none of that has anything to do with the rules specifically, like I thought. But instead, you want to talk about some broader point we weren't thinking or talking about. Okay. Yes your right. It matters to the larger situation, beyond the scope of our immediate discussion. Thank you for explaining.

I'm not sure how any that matters to any campaign finance rules that might prevent Biden from giving his war chest to another candate?

People don't even take turns in a circular firing squad.
I have no idea what you're talking about any more.

Neutrality is about not treating some forms of data different than others.
Data caps are still neutral. They don't care what kind of data you use, only how much.

That's not to say they aren't a problem. Just a different one.

It's not an argument. It's an excuse.
A post-hoc justification, given as a robotic response to my explaining how it's false.
In this exchange it's literal nonsense.

This is objectively FUBR. But is Fuck Cars against ambulances?
I'm not against ambulances!

That could be.
That's not what I was thinking.
Thinking again, that seems quite likely.

No candidates stepped forward.

Because Biden ran.
I said that.
That was the whole point of what I said.

You don't seem to be participating anyway.

[–] Steve@communick.news 1 points 6 days ago (5 children)

That makes sense.

Biden never should have run a second time at all. His running scared away any other candates. If he clearly said he wouldn't run for a second term, they could've had a full open primary with a dozen candates or more.

As it was, they did everything they could to discourage a real, full primary process.

Even after he was forced out, he could've not handed he's entire campaign war chest and staff to Harris. And instead had a contested convention where candates lobbied attendees for their votes. Like used be done a century ago. Then given all his campaign resources to that nominee.

 

Kagi AI Summary:
The passage lists the addresses of various food establishments in Albuquerque, New Mexico that have recently been downgraded due to health code violations. Many issues were observed like rodent droppings throughout facilities, food debris built up under kitchen equipment, and employees not properly washing their hands. Major violations included lack of date labeling on food items, food stored at improper temperatures, and chlorine sanitizer buckets lacking test strips. Several restaurants had gaps in external doors and walls allowing pest entry. Overall, the list shows that many popular food locations were cited for health code violations and risks to customers if issues are not addressed properly.

 

Kagi AI Summary:
The merger between PNM Resources and AVANGRID has been officially cancelled after three years of negotiations. While the $8.3 billion deal had overcome initial opposition, the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission ultimately rejected it in 2021 due to concerns raised by advocacy group New Energy Economy. AVANGRID appealed the decision but the court did not rule in time. With the deadline expired at the end of 2023, AVANGRID chose to withdraw from the merger. PNM had proposed extending the agreement until a court decision was made but AVANGRID declined. As a standalone company, PNM remains committed to transitioning to 100% renewable energy for its customers with or without AVANGRID's investment.
