The advance was incremental at best. So why did so many think it was a breakthrough?

Trump's stated plan is to deport 20 million people. There are only around 11 million undocumented immigrants. Both the dude mentioned in the comment above and his mom are definitely on the list. It's staggering that he didn't take that seriously.
That would make more sense if redfash weren't some of his biggest supporters
As a reminder, current estimates are that quantum cracking of a single 2048-bit RSA key would require a computer with 20 million qubits running in superposition for about eight hours. For context, quantum computers maxed out at 433 qubits in 2022 and 1,000 qubits last year. (A qubit is a basic unit of quantum computing, analogous to the binary bit in classical computing. Comparisons between qubits in true quantum systems and quantum annealers aren't uniform.) So even when quantum computing matures sufficiently to break vulnerable algorithms, it could take decades or longer before the majority of keys are cracked.
The upshot of this latest episode is that while quantum computing will almost undoubtedly topple many of the most widely used forms of encryption used today, that calamitous event won’t happen anytime soon. It’s important that industries and researchers move swiftly to devise quantum-resistant algorithms and implement them widely. At the same time, people should take step

I'm guessing you don't watch South Park
It's the difference between those for whom leftism is an aesthetic and those who want material progress. Those who value the aesthetic can't bear to compromise their aesthetic by voting for Harris, while those who care about people's material conditions and doing work to actually make progress do vote for her.
Yes, and it's nonsense
The fact that your trans refugee friends continue to suffer is deplorable, but does not mean lgbt don't have more rights now. You're employing the same fallacy that anti-vaxxers use when they say it's pointless to get a vaccine when it doesn't 100% guarantee protection from the illness. Things are better for some people and still desperately need to improve for many others.

Yeah but you have terrible taste. Thanks! :)
The Senate investigation found nothing illegal. That doesn't mean Stein isn't trying to help russian interests.
Republicans never claimed not to be pedophiles, so I think that's on us for assuming
Telegram users have never had privacy. Group chats are completely in the open and private messages are only encrypted if both users turn it on for each conversation—and it's off by default. I've never understood why anyone thinks Telegram is any better than posting anywhere else on the internet.
The question of why specific immigrants are here isn't relevant to the topic of how they should be treated once they're legally here. Some are here bc of bad US foreign policy, others aren't, but all should be treated with respect.
Cluster munitions are bad when you're an invading army bc some of the explosives fail to fire, endangering civilians who come across them later. Ukraine, however, is using them on its own territory to combat russia who 1) is already using cluster munitions with a greater fail rate than the ones the US is providing Ukraine, and 2) deliberately mines the areas they invade in a way to kill civilians (e.g. setting up a mine to explode if you try to move the corpse of a beloved family dog). So in this case, using the US's cluster munitions to get russia out is a net positive.
Better would be the marxists pushing the gas pedal to run over everyone on the red track, hoping that someone else will then rise up to stop the trolley

Crimea is indigenous Russian land: debunked || @svidomi Episode 5
Russian propaganda spreads the false narrative that Crimea has belonged to Russia for most of its existence and that its indigenous people, the Qırımtatarlar, or more commonly known as the Qirimli, have always been a small part of the Crimean population and have mixed with Russians.
Despite Russia's numerous attempts to wipe them off the map to fulfill this narrative, today, the Qırımtatarlar are alive and fighting for their homeland on the peninsula and on the other side of the Russian front as part of the Ukrainian Army.
Today, Yuliia and Alim Aliiev, Deputy Director General of the Institute of Ukraine, member of PEN Ukraine, and founder of the Crimean Fig literary project, will discuss the most disputed peninsula in the world — Qirim, or Krym in Ukrainian. Who does it really belong to? Was it really originally Russian land? What happened there between 1918 and 2014, when it became known worldwide after the Russian occupation?

Donetsk in Western Media: A Reality Check || @svidomi Episode 4
In 2014, Western media took a liking to frequent reporting on what they deemed to be the Ukrainian conflict, labeling the paid-by-Russia militia and their Russian troops as separatists. Through that perception of an independent group of people in the region of Donbas, whose culture and identity were supposedly persecuted, the narrative was formed that they wanted nothing more than to cease being Ukrainian and form their own sub-republics adjacent to Mother Russia.
Today we'll discuss what really happened in Donetsk in 2014 from the perspective of a then 16-year-old born and raised in the city. Were there really pro-Russian crowds yearning to separate from Ukraine, so much that they decided to create their own independent republics?
