This morning there was a political earthquake in North Carolina. A legislator in the state House announced she was switching parties from Democrat to Republican. I want to make sure you understand how dramatic the impact of this one switch will be. [thread]

I wanted to help the poor souls looking for help with their bluescreens so I wrote a powershell oneliner that pulls the failure name or "bucket" from your event log. Why would anyone want this you ask?

Hey @sbisson! Hope you're feeling better and recovering quickly, one of your Canadian relations caught a big fish. x.com/nowthisnews/status/150…

BIG FISH: A 10-foot sturgeon believed to be between 500 & 600 lbs was caught, tagged, and re-released by a fishing guide in British Columbia. Guide Yves Bisson estimates the fish could've been more than 100 years old.

Romney: "Marjorie Taylor Greene & Gosar, I don't know them. But I'm reminded of the old line from Butch Cassidy where one character says, 'Morons, I have morons on my team.' I think anybody who would sit down w/ white nationalists at their conference is missing a few IQ points."

Wix Team members from Lithuania drove all the way to the border of Poland-Ukraine, and along with our Polish team helped the Ukrainian team and their families cross the border and bring them to safety. These people have never met before. I'm extremely moved and proud.
