You have no evidence of this. Pollsters may have their own political slant but candidates of both parties want to know the accurate numbers of where their candidate stands.
Some of the NYT polls have looked more favorable for Trump than other pollsters as well.

Ironically, the part of Perl that looks most cursing is the regular expressions, and that’s the feature that so many modern languages have borrowed from Perl directly.

In a sense it was a $32k offer for silence, but in savings rather than earning. Since she didn’t sign the NDA, she lost more money.

I live a college town. Most students don’t want to buy a house to live in for four years and many don’t want to live in dorms either.

Reads like a press release for a company few have heard of that imagines itself as “top” company that believes it’s newsworthy that it’s moving itself to a state with lower taxes. Congratulations?

As soon the message arrives, reply STOP.
This sends a signal to the sender and the carrier that you didn’t want it.
Next, look for the messaging app feature to “Block and Report”. This sends a signal to Apple/Google and possibly others that the message was spam.
Now, I do these things and I continue to get political fundraising pleas over text from groups I don’t recognize.
BUT, I also work with bulk emailing and know it takes a very small number of reports, less than 1%, of messages reported as spam before the bulk-mailer/carrier blocks and penalizes the group originating the message.
I think some collective action here by a small group can make a difference.

Have you tried doing CAD work on a phone or iPad over a Remote Desktop connection?

If you don’t have a proper computer, how will you access this remote server to do your CAD work?
If you have been using an ergonomic mechanical keyboard for more than year, let us know which keyboard it is, and whether you plan to keep to keep using it for at least another year or if there's another keyboard you are considering trying instead.
I have a Logitech C920 and am looking to upgrade. Something suitable for streaming. Some annoyances with the Logitech: sometimes autofocus fails and poor reproduction of blacks. Ex: Lack of detail when a black cat is on screen. I already have a nice mic-- the webcam doesn't need one.
To open a file relative to the current one in Helix, you can to the do the following with 24.3: ``` :o <C-r>%<C-w> ``` Here, the Control-R allows you to select a register and the special register "%" contains the current file path and inserts into the command line, while the final Control-w chops off the last part of the file name leaving with you current directory. This is like `:o %:h` from Vim/Neovim

I'm looking for a simple sendmail replacement to receive local mail, such as from cron and service failures and forward it to on to a real SMTP server. I have used `msmtpd` successfully but thought I'd ask if folks have other solutions they like.
And then I moved colon and semicolon to layers and re-assigned that outer pinky key to my rarely used AltGr key.
I would like the end result to include remote and encrypted backups. I’m considering maybe a Synology NAS with an APFS partition for Time Machine and a BTRFS partition for Linux backups. The Linux laptops might backup to the NAS with Restic. The Synology NAS might then backup to BackBlaze or another cloud using Synology’s Hyper Backup or also Restic. Have I missed a better plan?
