A bullet point list of his policies for those with a short attention span like me.

• Abortion: Supports abortion rights; signed legislation protecting access in Minnesota.
• Climate Change: Aims for 100% clean energy by 2040; streamlined renewable energy project permitting, secured EPA grant.
• Immigration: Backs pathway to citizenship for undocumented migrants; expanded state services regardless of status.
• Israel-Gaza: Aligns with Biden-Harris on two-state solution and humanitarian aid in Gaza; condemned Hamas' actions for Oct. 7th attack.
• Gun Control: Evolved stance, now supports assault weapons ban, universal background checks, "red flag" law.
• Economy: Advocated progressive pro-labor legislation; tax cuts for residents with corporate/high earner increases.
• Paid Leave: Signed bill providing paid family/medical leave up to 12 weeks.
• Education: Supports free school meals, tuition-free public higher education for eligible low-income students.
• Marijuana Legalization: Signed legislation legalizing recreational marijuana and expunging/resentencing lower-level convictions.

I agree, but it's all relative. This is coming from Biden who has been a huge supporter of Israel, letting them do pretty much whatever they want to do since forever. This seems like a huge step for the man, given where he's coming from.

edit: Just realized I wasn't super clear. I was referring to the consequences part and how even if we want that, just Biden saying something as was reported is a pretty big step from where we were. I pretty much agree completely with @mozz@mbin.grits.dev.

Have a good time with your bitcoin and your crypto and everything else that you're playing with, and we're going to make that one of the greatest industries on Earth. Good luck and God bless you all.

Probably the funniest thing he could have said to them.

Well I'd be really depressed if it was working.

This whole event was a shit show. Tech problems, no one could hear each other. And of course none of the journalists landed any gotcha moments because it's Trump and he has zero shame.

It is much easier to buy one "hefty" physical machine and run ProxMox with virtual machines for servers than it is to run multiple Raspberry Pis. After living that life for years, I'm a ProxMox shill now. Backups are important (read the other comments), and ProxMox makes backup/restore easy. Because eventually you will fuck a server up beyond repair, you will lose data, and you will feel terrible about it. Learn from my mistakes.

Hell yeah.

Just imagine being that guy's doctor, having to give him bad news with potentially no cure. That has to be nerve wracking.

supports Israel’s right to defend itself

Yeah, that's not wrong.

AND that Israel is killing and starving innocents civilians

Yeah, also not wrong. Because in this instance Israel isn't defending itself. They're not taking out imminent threats; at least not exclusively. They're using an attack to justify imperialism and genocide. We even have a very recent example of how that's usually a disaster for everyone involved.

I like the idea of getting private money out of news. Creating a hard doctrine of "fairness" is just not possible. Sometimes there are not two sides to the truth, and we wouldn't want to pin in the media outlets if the truth demands a firm stance.
