moved here from lemmy.one because there are no active admins on that instance.
Any strikes occurring after January 20th will be met with immediate deadly military force and decade long prison sentences, so the port owners are just going to ride it out.
The first amendment is dead
Don’t let Matt gaetz know about her wearabouts
If enabling fascist means funny market number go up, they will do it.
Bye bye first amendment rights!
I guess Trump’s weekly marching orders chat with Putin doesn’t count
Certain things are OK to not have a political opinion on. Example: Taxes are complicated and most people don’t understand them; most probably want to pay less of them but do not really need to put their limited political energy to focusing on them.
That applies to most nonpolitical subjects too… most things to have an opinion on like food, movies, music whatever, are generally of little consequence.
Things that affect the base existence of large swaths of the population, aka human rights, are not something a living citizen can admit a “don’t care” opinion on. You either want to live free or you don’t, and having no opinion on such is how you end up without the legal right to any opinions…
The key to both is to have a complete information stream before forming any opinion or comitting to not having one. I do a nonzero amount of research even before writing a lot of comments here on Lemmy to make sure my facts are straight, and maybe 40% of the time discover it’s either not worth my time to write, or I was initially wrong and my comment shouldn’t be made.
ITS NOT A “JOKE” AND NEVER FUCKING HAS BEEN
Listen if I did the Grammer English more gooder, I would have become a writer or a journalist and not an engineer.
Well that one has “accountability” in the name and Trump hates that word.
Blocked until the feds mandate it nationally

Looks like the bribes paid off, musky!
Stopping now would make it worse actually. Russia has retooled for wartime production and is currently running massive government deficit spending for war goods, which is why inflation and interest rates are so high… if they were to back down, their interest rates would drop, but the bottom falling out of government spending would really crash things because almost every private enterprise is catering to those needs. Putin can’t stop now or his country riots in breadlines.
I’d bet they exempt it. The corporate grinder doesn’t really work without stimulants for the workers to purchase so they can work (and consume) more and sleep less.
It would be better to just give the voter a set of 6 lines, top to bottom, with rank 1 at top and rank 6 at bottom. That is the easiest to visualize and understand, and that’s also how almost all of the campaign information about RCV has shown it… Then have some way to identify each candidate to put on each line that’s not just hand writing the name. That I’m not 100% sure how to do. My engineer solution says create a lookup table with letters or numbers next to each candidate, but that could easily get confused with the rank in which to put them.
It’s not super hard to understand the concept, but the visual display of this implementation is objectively horrifying. No line or column delineation, just a grid of bubbles. I literally look at Excel sheets for a living and this makes my head hurt trying to keep track of what bubble is going where, I don’t blame voters for giving up on it.
YUM

56.8% (213,693) Yes / 43.2% (162,466) No
so not as big of a change as I thought. But I guarantee it made a difference, because if I saw that bullshit above on my ballot i’d be very inclined to vote against doing it again.
Humidity ruins PLA. It turns brittle AF once it has absorbed any major amount of moisture, and that is significantly sped up with temperature.
