it seems like NPR has called all but 5 senate races, but even without them, democrats have 51 seats and bernie sanders and angus king have 2 more -- looking at the current results, two or three more seats might fall to democrats as well, including peltola in alaska and el-sayed in michigan
the house is not yet fully called, but there are only two seats left until a majority and most of the ones remaining seem to be in the "dems leading" category
in previous years, there's been a lot of moments where a narrow democrat majority resulted in things still not getting done because of a few rogue senators going against the rest of their party -- heck, this also often happens with the republicans too, in fact, that's why "obamacare" is still a thing -- but it seems like the majority the dems about to get is solid enough to avoid this type of stuff
from what i understand, winning the senate also means more ability to investigate the trump administration and its cronies?
el-sayed called, peltola now seems to be losing
219 house seats, one over majority, called for democrats

Maybe I will be able to fall asleep sometime soon knowing that Abdul El-Sayed has won his race for U.S. Senator from Michigan. https://apnews.com/live/midterm-election-2026#000001a1-a574-d59a-a9e7-ad7c88ac0000
Why is Alaska being discussed but Hawaii isn't? Did they forget it's also a state?
@TheJen Hawai'i is so far left it's more ultraviolet than blue. Alaska flipping would be news.

There is still an air of uncomprehending confusion in tech (and frankly, even in some climate / energy spaces) around why people do not like AI

So nannte man früher manchmal den Coriander, weil sein Duft ähnlich dem Geruch empfunden wurde, den Wanzen an Obst hinterlassen.

Quietly waiting for more companies to discover that "AI-free environment" is the magic phrase that will attract the smartest, most dedicated experts in the world to come work for you. We don't often get magic phrases with zero downsides but we've got one right now and you can just, you know, use it
🛡️ Running Nextcloud in an air-gapped environment means you physically separate it from the internet, while files and collaboration services remain available within the protected network. For remote AI-driven attacks, this creates a fundamental barrier.

I'm a little mad at my daughter because the new cat likes her more than me.
I miss physical magazines that are interesting. Video game magazines, the D-Photo photography magazine.
Just. Interesting magazines.
Maybe I should make my own.
