Grok, even in its manipulated state, continues to emphasize the facts. And that's hurting the feelings of a lot of Twitter users.
  • Nope, the warning system wasn't installed because the citizens of the community thought it was too expensive

    During a news conference early Friday morning, Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said he didn't know why the camps hadn't been evacuated, but that the county did not have an early warning system or outdoor sirens to alert people to flooding conditions.

    “We’ve looked into it before … The public reeled at the cost,” Kelly said.

  • Grok, even in its manipulated state, continues to emphasize the facts. And that's hurting the feelings of a lot of Twitter users.
  • Can someone find me a source on this. Most of the articles I have read say NWS pushed out a flash flood alert 3 hours in advance but the camp itself didn't have any alerting system in place. So if they had cell reception and turned on the emergency alert then they would've been warned.

    I'm sure cuts to the NOAA and NWS can't be beneficial for anyone though

  • The Trump administration has made drastic cuts to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that threaten to impact weather forecasting (headline from four months ago)

    U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said Saturday it was difficult for forecasters to predict just how much rain would fall. She said the Trump administration would make it a priority to upgrade National Weather Service technology used to deliver warnings.

    Sure, Kristi. I'm sure you'll say anything for headlines

    Democracy, but stupid people are making your voting decisions

  • What is the worst online community, that isn't Reddit, that you know about and all should avoid?
  • I do get your sentiment but discord has its place. It's nice for quick messaging. Forums are for well thought out discussions. Discord is where you would shitpost, have offtopic channels, link weird videos and memes in a quick and fast way.
