Lol okay, keep not understanding. You aren’t putting together that rescinding rights guaranteed to people means that all you need to do is claim that somebody is in that group that doesn’t get rights and they no longer have rights to things like a trial. I could literally just call you an illegal immigrant and you’d never get the opportunity to prove otherwise because you wouldn’t have the right to anymore.
As for the “ILLEGAL immigrants” thing, there’s a difference between civil offenses and criminal offenses. If you don’t even know that, then idk where you get off thinking you get to lecture anybody about how laws work. I’m sorry to say that you’re just flat out fucking wrong about this. Quit parroting what partisan media is spoon-feeding to you and look shit up for yourself. They benefit by convincing you to accept the bullshit that they’re selling. Be more skeptical. Any time you see something on media, ask yourself who is benefiting from the message they’re sending out.
I totally agree. I’m not sure what career you’re looking to launch into, but it definitely makes more sense to just meet expectations at your current job and save your energy for whatever studying or networking or whatever you need to do to get to where you want to be. Your time here is short; your spare time is shorter; your fully able-bodied spare time is already running short. Take a Saturday off and do that hike you’ve been putting off or visit that city and walk around or whatever. Fun activities will be a lot more draining and require more time to recover from when you’re older and your knees and back have more wear and tear from the labor you’re doing now.
I think it’s getting more and more common to see stores running a skeleton crew. Your store will probably downsize through attrition. They’ll just expect the same amount of same quality work to be done with a reduction. Don’t speed up. Tell others not to speed up either. This is not a temporary hurdle to get past, it’s a test run to see if it can be the new normal. And when it fails, they’ll still try to avoid hiring and just throw a few extra hours at the part time people. I hope that they can understand that their availability needs to be pretty firm and they don’t give an inch on that. I had a conversation with somebody like a month ago about encroachment on their work schedule and it was really helpful for them to hear me tell them that their availability is their availability and that “the hours outside of that are not for sale.” Your time is your time, and what you do with it is your business and nobody else’s.
Step 1: proclaim that immigrants no longer have rights.
Step 2: accuse person(s) you don’t like of being an immigrant.
Step 3: because immigrants don’t have rights, due process is not given.
Step 4: accuse person(s) of literally anything you feel like and order whatever sentence you decide is appropriate since an accusation is now also a conviction.
Are you getting it yet? Or will it have to target you specifically before you give a shit?
If they don’t remind their viewers about that, then they’ll never remember it. They’re in a bubble and the constant outrage peddled to them exhausts their minds and pushes anything older than like six months out of their memory banks. I doubt they’d remember “Chinese spy balloon” unless you said it. They might not even remember who Tim Walz and Bob Menendez are.
Dude was stunned that his adult son knew how to turn his computer back on after he turned it off. He’s too clueless to even know to be impressed by what half of lemmy users can do with tech lol.
If simple vandalism is punished so harshly, may as well go all in and torch the fucking things. There’s really no reason to stop at keying or painting anymore. Cosmetic damage is being punished as though they’re being rendered completely useless.
And edgelord baby billionaire should be happy since people will have to buy new cars, and surely his cars are gonna be their first choice, right?
People claim to support the Constitution and then say dumb shit like this. Try reading it. It’s not very long. It very clearly spells out that everybody in the country has rights, and that one of this rights is the right to peacefully protest. You’re even exercising that same right by arguing that they shouldn’t have these rights. But they do. And the second you try to take that away from them, what’s to stop a dictator on the other side from deciding that you don’t deserve the right to disagree with your government anymore, and so cops will be authorized to break into your home and kidnap you and deport you to a country you’ve never been to.
Any argument you have about how that isn’t the same thing is just going to cement how xenophobic and racist you are, so instead of bothering to reply, just sit with your thoughts and figure out what you can do differently moving forward to develop some amount of empathy and critical thinking skills to not advocate for things to get shitty for everybody in the long term. It’s possible to grow and improve, and I’m rooting for you.
What’s crazier is that you think that legal residents don’t deserve a first amendment right despite doing so much more to have earned rights than any person who just happened to have been born here did. Fuck outta here with that shitty-ass take. All rights for all Americans, full stop.
Unless 76% of Republicans makes up 18% of Americans, they got some ‘splainin’ to do.
“Presidents should obey court orders. But not my president, and not those court orders!”
Guys, what the fuck did you think was being discussed?
Easy. By intentionally bankrupting it through a Russian money laundering scheme and passing the debts on to your investors. And it’s easy to get investors for a casino because the only way a casino doesn’t make money is if you intentionally bankrupt it. QED.
That makes them smart.
– victims of these conmen tricked into supporting them because they believe that they’ll benefit from the conmen getting power.
I don’t know much about tablets and opened this thread just to see if I could learn something. I think it might be a good idea to add this detail to the main post. I’ve seen some other people mention battery life as a downside to some options, so if battery life isn’t a factor since it’s gonna be plugged in most of the time, adding it to the body of the post could nudge people to recommend options that they otherwise wouldn’t have bothered to mention.
Good luck!
You probably already know, but in case you don’t, bring adapters for your phone charger and whatever else because their outlets are different. Their grid is 50Hz instead of 60Hz in the US.
Idk, call ICE on yourself or criticize a genocide enough and you might get a free flight to El Salvador. Last I heard, setting a Tesla on fire might do it now too. Pretty soon, maybe just voting for a Democrat books you a flight. We’ll see.
Dude, you’re gonna get disappeared for typing r@!nb0w5 out where children could conceivably read it, assuming they are allowed to learn how to read in the first place still.
Ahead of its time, predicting the consequences of tariffs like that.
And they’re terrified of all the childless cat ladies opting to not produce their next generation of laborer/consumer brood to be said replacement. Hence the crackdown on abortions and contraception and people who pair up in ways that cannot yield children. You can’t have the infinite growth that capitalism demands if the number of producers and consumers goes down.
Combined cycle natural gas plant operator in the US here. Bridging the gap between low demand and high demand times is a big part of why it’s so challenging to try to reduce fossil fuel power solutions. The grid is basically a pressurized pipeline, and it’s only reliable if that pressure is maintained no matter how many “faucets” get opened or closed. Green energy solutions aren’t really able to raise that “pressure” unless we build significantly more than we need and keep a bunch of them off most of the time until peak conditions demand them. Nuclear is extremely slow (relatively speaking) to (safely) alter output to meet demand, so its best usecase is for baseloading as much as possible. But with a natural gas plant, I can put my foot on the gas pedal, figuratively speaking. It’s fucking terrible for the environment, but that’s the cost of everybody insisting on consuming so much goddamn electricity all the time. If you don’t like it, stop supporting power hogs like data centers by using AI bullshit and cloud storage and web hosting and media streaming.
This is a complicated problem, and complicated problems almost never have simple solutions. I wish we could minimize the problem of what happens when 100M+ EVs get plugged in at 7pm on a Tuesday by already having put together a strong public transportation infrastructure that people feel comfortable and safe using, but the time to start doing that was probably during the gas shortage in the 70s when we saw how overly reliant we were on cars. It’s probably not too late to start, but it’s gonna be a challenging transition now no matter what we do.
Lol what? Idk what “news” story you’re referencing, but it’s entirely irrelevant here. Wildly pivoting to an entirely different topic like this is irrefutable proof that you’re wrong, have realized you’re wrong, and refuse to confront and admit that you’re wrong. This thread is also old now, so nobody is even following this anymore anyway. As such, any further engagement would be a total waste of my time, so I’m out.
Good luck figuring shit out. I don’t need to convince you; the future will do that for me.
