Spencer Pratt (@spencerpratt) needs to tell his voters to check their ballot status and file a complaint if it hasn't been received yet.

MANY people who voted for Spencer are finding out their ballots haven't been received.

🚨NOW: Rep. Thomas Massie just stood on the House floor and named what every politician in DC has spent 58 years pretending did not happen

The USS Liberty. June 8, 1967.

34 dead American sailors. 174 wounded. Over 70% casualty rate on a virtually unarmed US ship.

25 minutes of Israeli jets, Israeli rockets, Israeli 30mm cannon fire, and ISRAELI NAPALM ON THE BRIDGE. Then Israeli torpedoes. Then Israel machine-gunned the lifeboats.

MASSIE: "They were intent on leaving no survivor."

Then the part nobody wants you to think about: the Saratoga and the America launched planes to help. The planes were RECALLED. The crew sat there bleeding for 17 hours.

Dean Rusk. Richard Helms. Admiral Moaner. The chief counsel of the Court of Inquiry himself. None of them believed the "mistaken identity" story.

And now you understand exactly why the entire DC machine and Israel lobby has spent the last year trying to primary this man out of existence.

You are not allowed to say the quiet part. He said it anyway.

Honor the crew. https://t.co/XuDLeFF4gJ.

Run Gemma 4 26b MTP on 8 GB VRAM GPUs at 25+ tokens/second. Flags included!

local llm space is moving at terminal velocity. only 3 days ago google released gemma 4 26b a4b qat quants. more efficient than before, ran on 8gb vram at 20 tok/sec.

and now just a few hours ago, mainline llama.cpp merged a massive update and we just shattered our own record. decode throughput went 25-40% up on the same 8 GB VRAM setup!

Before MTP: 20 tps -> After MTP: 28 tps!

llama.cpp just officially merged PR #23398 ("add Gemma4 MTP"), bringing native Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) support to Gemma 4 models.

By running speculative drafting on the same 8GB VRAM RTX 4060 setup, my decode throughput on a 64k context instantly leaped to a blistering 25–27 tokens/sec thats 25-30% increase with the same hardware.

Here is the architectural catch you need to know: Unlike the Qwen 3.5 and 3.6 series, which bake the MTP heads directly into the base GGUF, the Gemma 4 MTP head is not built in.

You must download a separate, specialized MTP drafter GGUF (the assistant model) to act as the speculator. (I've dropped the download link in the replies).

copy and try the exact flags:

-m gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-qat-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 6 --spec-draft-p-min 0.7 --spec-draft-model gemma-4-26b-A4B-it-assistant-Q4_0.gguf -c 64000 -v

n-max 4 and p-min 0.7 is also worth checking out. benchmark on your setup and workflow.

if you have a single 8 gb vram nvidia rtx 4060, 3060, 3070, 2080, 2070, grab the MTP drafter GGUF link in the comments and try it yourself.

Check it out even if you have asmaller or a larger gpu, such as a single rtx 3090, 4090, 3060, 2060.

MTP works for all gemma 4 sizes such as gemma 4 12b, gemma 4 31b etc. but remember to grab the correct mtp draft assistant models respectively.

what are you benchmarking today

Ok security twitter, I'm very confused by MS' response to my report.

I have a way for an unelevated user to get SYSTEM to run arbitrary code by planting a file in a public folder then waiting for an event that *will* always happen.

How does that not qualify for an EoP?

ATTENTION PARENTS:

Did you know that schools are REQUIRED BY LAW to hand over all records pertaining to your child??

You do not need to pay lawyers or waste time filing FOIAs.

You simply need to put in a request. If they refuse just say “FERPA.”

If they still refuse, DM me.

They are breaking the law and we will make sure they are held accountable.

I heard from a VERY reliable anonymous source that H-1B visa holders are self-deporting in RECORD numbers!

Here are the main groups leaving the country voluntarily:

1. Individuals who have no pathway to a green card after a failed Labor Market Test (LMT). Full credit is due to Jobs Now and the thousands of Americans applying for PERM jobs.

2. Individuals working for suspicious consultancies, because they are aware that they are being investigated.

3. Individuals who own rental properties are self-deporting, because they are becoming aware that the US government is actually processing my tips. As a friendly reminder, the first visa revocation letters were sent to H-1B landlords 3 months ago.

4. Individuals in the DFW area are starting to see that Americans' frustrations with the H-1B visa are real, and that Americans are starting to organize. They know that it is a matter of time before more fraud investigations are launched or that legislative changes are implemented.

The common point between these 4 groups is that they are scared of being grabbed by ICE, and would much rather self-deport before they need to admit to their families that they got deported.

Despite this progress, this is not the time to slow down and sit on our laurels. This is the time to double down and work harder than ever before.

This is why I will personally respond to every single inquiry from individuals wanting to monitor their local area for listings. If I have to train 100+ of you one-on-one and answer questions, I will.

On 12 January 2013, Robert Ethan Saylor, a 26-year-old man with Down syndrome from Frederick County, Maryland, watched the film Zero Dark Thirty at a local movie theater with his caregiver. When the film ended, his caregiver left him briefly in the lobby while she went to get the car. Ethan returned to the theater to watch the film again. His aide later told investigators that Ethan had loved the film. He had even clapped at the end.

Ethan was fascinated with law enforcement. He sometimes called 911 just to ask dispatchers questions. He was a devoted follower of the television programme NCIS and loved talking to police officers.

A theater employee noticed he had re-entered without a ticket and called mall security. Three off-duty Frederick County sheriff's deputies, Lieutenant Scott Jewell, Sergeant Rich Rochford and Deputy First Class James Harris, responded. Ethan's caregiver returned and spoke to management and one of the officers, alerting them that he had Down syndrome and asking to be allowed in to help. Her request was refused.

The aide warned the deputies that Ethan would freak out if they touched him. Moments later, she described seeing three or four officers holding him and trying to put him in handcuffs. She heard him screaming "ouch," "don't touch me" and "get off." Witnesses said he was screaming "Mommy! Mommy! It hurts!" as he was forcibly removed from his seat.

Ethan ended up on the floor beneath the three deputies. As the deputies tried to restrain him along a slightly inclined ramp at the rear of the theater, three sets of handcuffs were placed on him during the struggle. As the deputies manhandled him, they fractured his larynx, making it difficult for him to breathe. When this became apparent, they rolled him onto his side, removed his handcuffs and called emergency medical technicians. It was too late. Ethan suffocated.

He was pronounced dead at a local hospital. The state medical examiner ruled the death a homicide caused by asphyxia.

The presiding federal judge later wrote that Ethan had been sitting quietly in his seat and that there was nothing in the record to suggest that, if left alone, he would not have remained there until his mother arrived. He described the escalation in the deputies' use of force as dramatic and noted that a man had died over the cost of a movie ticket. A county grand jury determined criminal charges were not warranted. The three deputies were cleared in an internal affairs investigation and faced no criminal consequences.

Ethan's mother, Patti Saylor, said: "Ethan's life matters. He didn't deserve to die the way he did. People with disabilities are part of our community, and first responders and law enforcement need to know and respect their needs." In 2018, the family settled a civil lawsuit for $1.9 million against the state of Maryland, the three deputies and the mall management company.

No one was ever charged with a crime in connection with Ethan Saylor's death.
