Democrats have continued to lose the conversation, with women coming out in even the sports world to reject messages from athletes like Angel Reese.Despite saying in August that she wasn't following the presidential campaigns, Reese put out a simple statement the morning after Donald Trump became the 47th president."As a woman, I'm heartbroken for us all..." Reese decried on her X account. At the same time, Reese shared a picture of Vice President Kamala Harris on her Instagram, which had a caption "thank you, Kamala Harris, we are proud of you."However, female readers were not supportive of Reese's emotional plea and flooded her replies with disagreements."Smart women know to vote beyond identity politics," a woman named Angie quickly replied. — (@) Another reader replied, "what's a woman," implying that the Democratic position on gender politics is that a woman cannot be simply defined."Imagine believing all the lies about trump! Wow!" a Trump supporter with "America First" in her profile also stated.What’s a woman?— Amanda (@BasedBlondex) November 6, 2024 Another X user even went as far as to say "keep your legs closed. Simple," inferring that Reese was taking issue with abortion rights, which are not under President Trump's control, however.Keep your legs closed. Simple.— Toasty ??? (@ThatbasedLatinx) November 6, 2024 Reese revealing her political leanings, albeit somewhat covertly, is a change from her typical responses to questions about Harris in the months leading up to the election. During previous media availability periods, Reese parried questions about supporting the Democratic candidate.For example, when reporter Brandon Robinson caught up with Reese on the court, he directly asked the athlete for her thoughts on the vice president:"[Kamala Harris] is a woman, and she's doing her thing, running for president," the reporter began. "Have you had a chance to watch her? What are your thoughts on her running for political office?"At the time, Reese's response was refreshingly-normal, telling the reporter she didn't feel educated enough to comment on the race."I haven't been able to tap a lot into the political election ... so I'm not that educated right now, but [I] just continue to learn," Reese replied.Instead, the Chicago Sky player suggested, "everybody go out there and vote.""I commend that, and I just tell a lot of people to go out there and vote because we need it for this election," Reese added.The overwhelming volume of negative quotes and replies to Reese seem to signal that female voters prefer to focus on issues that are affecting their lives.Responses relating to men in women's locker rooms appear alongside disgruntled basketball fans and Christians in what has become a cross-section of Americans focused on political, economical, and social issues rather than gender or racial politics.Like Blaze News?

In a post-election interview on Wednesday, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed some of his plans for a major overhaul of the country’s key health agencies.An MSNBC reporter asked RFK Jr. whether he will terminate “the top level federal service workers that are currently at" the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.“In some categories,” Kennedy responded. “There are entire departments, like the nutrition departments at FDA, that have to go.”He said workers in certain departments, including nutrition, are “not doing their job” or “protecting our kids.”“Why do we have Froot Loops in this country that have 18 or 19 ingredients, and you go to Canada, and it’s got two or three?” Kennedy questioned. When asked whether he plans to eradicate any of the agencies, Kennedy replied, “To eliminate the agencies, as long as it requires congressional approval, I wouldn’t be doing that.”Kennedy explained that he is confident he could “get the corruption out of the agencies.”“It’s what I’ve been doing for 40 years. I’ve sued all those agencies. I have a PhD in corporate corruption, and that’s what I do. And once they’re not corrupt, once Americans are getting good science and are allowed to make their own choices, they’re going to get a lot healthier,” he added.Less than a week before Election Day, Kennedy told NewsNation Trump’s plans for him in his future cabinet.“President Trump has asked me to reorganize the federal health agencies. The agencies that have a portfolio that affects human health, which is CDC, [National Institutes of Health], FDA, as well as some of the agencies within the United States Department of Agriculture,” Kennedy said.Kennedy said he was asked by Trump to end corruption and conflicts of interest as well as “measurably reduce chronic disease in our children within two years.”On Sunday, he remarked, “I want to be in the White House. And [Trump has] assured me that I’m going to have that.”Kennedy stated that he had not yet decided whether he wants to head the United States Department of Health and Human Services.“I want to be in the position where I’m most effective to end the chronic disease epidemic,” Kennedy continued. “And I’m confident that if I wanted to do HHS secretary, the president would fight like hell to make that happen.”Last week, Vice President Kamala Harris slammed Kennedy as “someone who has routinely promoted junk science and crazy conspiracy theories.”She called him the “exact last person in America who should be setting health care policy for America’s families and children.”Like Blaze News?

I don’t know about you but I’ve never associated the Metal Slug series with strategy. The legendary run and gun games have always had more in common with Contra, Shootas, Blood & Teef, and Broforce rather than slower, more cerebral offerings like Final Fantasy Tactics, Triangle Strategy, or Fire Emblem. That’s all changed now, as Metal Slug Tactics is here to serve up a side order of strategy along with the series’ trademark explosive action.

Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Microsoft is testing a big Windows on Arm update to let more x64 software and games run under Prism emulation on Copilot Plus PC with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite or X Plus processors. The capability comes as part of the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27744, rolling out to testers in the Canary Channel. This way, Qualcomm’s new chips can run more kinds of apps that don’t have native ARM64 versions and, until now, weren’t usable with emulation. It could even enable games that use AVX2, like Starfield and Helldivers 2, to work on Windows on Arm. With this update, Microsoft’s emulator will open up support for 64-bit x86 software to use processor extensions like AVX, AVX2, BMI, FMA, and F16C. However, it says 32-bit software still won’t...

Striking New York Times tech workers have created a “Guild Builds” page dedicated to strike-themed games you can play, including a spin on Wordle, a word search, and the custom Connections I reported on earlier today. As part of its strike announcement on Monday, the New York Times Tech Guild requested that people don’t cross the digital picket line to play the NYT’s daily puzzle games. This collection of five other games offers an alternative if you want to support the striking workers but also do some brain teasers. There are currently five games on the page: Strikle, the twist on Wordle Connections: Strike Edition, which is a puzzle made in a Connections creator Word Search Match Strike, a memory game Frogger 8th Avenue They...

Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge The Federal Trade Commission has charged Sitejabber, an online review platform, with violating its new fake reviews rules by using point-of-sale reviews to misrepresent what customers think about products. In one of its first enforcement actions under new rules banning companies from making or selling fake reviews, the FTC is ordering the company to stop. The FTC says Sitejabber “deceptively” punched up businesses’ review counts by incorporating responses to point-of-sale questionnaires asking customers to rate and review their shopping experience, before they’d actually gotten any products or services. It also alleges that by giving its clients tools to publish that feedback on their own sites, Sitejabber enabled them to mislead people... Continue reading…

The world is still settling into 5G, but that hasn’t stopped researchers from setting their sights on the next iteration, 6G wireless tech. When it hits, 6G may be up to 9,000 times faster than 5G—fast enough for us to communicate via hologram. However, to power that speed, researchers are looking at an unconventional power source: the human body. This development comes as researchers strive to find a way to incorporate Visible Light Communication (VLC) into 6G telecommunications. But there’s one problem: VLC is extremely wasteful. In fact, the amount of energy that VLC wastes makes many reluctant to rely on it. That could change, though, with the development of Bracelet+, a small but mighty antenna that could collect the leaked RF VLC puts off. But first, they had to find a good way to maximize the collection of that energy so that it could be repurposed into 6G wireless tech. After trying a wall, a phone, and even other devices like a tablet or laptop, the researchers decided to attach the Bracelet+ to the human body and see what happened. Surprisingly, they found that the human body is the most efficient medium for amplifying the wire’s ability to collect leaked RF energy. In fact, it was able to amplify it up to ten times more than the coil did so alone. The final design—which became Bracelet+—is designed to be worn on the upper forearm. It’s a simple coil of copper wire that can also be adapted to be a ring, belt, anklet, or necklace. Additionally, the researchers note in their paper, which actually won the prestigious Best Paper Award from the Association for Computing Machinery’s Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems, that the design is extremely cheap. With such an easily scaleable design, the future of 6G wireless tech could be closer than ever, at least in terms of figuring out how to harvest all that leaked energy.
