sigh. was going to skip but you started you reply with only possible argument. And I get it I had knee jerk was to just not vote with them. The thing is trumps main focus right now is tearing apart the government but he does hit road blocks in that you can’t just fire people without reason unless they have not been there long. So its being fought and he is limited. In a government shutdown scenario the executive (trump) has to furlough people and can decide who is necessary and who is not. Courts can’t put a stop to it because its a furlough due to a shutdown. Then any bad effects can now be blamed on the democrats plus when the shutdown is over he can point to we ran well enough without the furloughed folks which is why they should be let go. The shutdown is not really a good option. I get the feeling but the smart move was to prevent the shutdown.

oh man. I knew so many little kids that would have a spontaneous im an X day. This is so wierd. So its. First they came for the trans, then they came for minorities, then they came for the women, and then the furries

yeah and its sorta silly to even pretend that there is private ownership of land given property tax and regulations. The truth is the state owns the land that it holds by military might and the citizens rent portions for their needs.

yeah its the same with patent. I often think both should only be given to individuals and entities should not be able to have them.

Thing is that copywrite did serve a purpose and was for like 20 years before disney got it extended to the nth degree. The idea was the authors had a chance to make money but were expected to be prolific enough to have more writings by the time 20 years was over. I would like to see with patents that once you get one you have a limited time to go to market. Maybe 10 years and if you product is ever not available for purchase (at a cost equivalent to the average cost accounted for inflation or something) you lose the patent so others can produce it. So like stop making an attachment for a product and now anyone can.

good. none of these people should be able to go anywhere in public without being booed. Typical conversations should be: Hey your one of the assholes fucking everything up.

oh I thought it showed a random foss software. I was thinking I will just stick with osalt and portable apps. I was watchig the eclipse and its a wierd hour so its not giving anything for me looking at it now.

news to me. Everything I see is lets fight the current administration by bitching about the democrats not quite doing enough in the past. Its only by rectifying the past that we can solve the future. do not be concerned about the present.

amazon fresh stores do something like this.

finally! I hate when peope are always blaming trump or maga or republicans for this shit when its been the democrats every time. reagans deregulation and tax cuts, bush juniors war on terror, trumps total idiocy. ALL DEMOCRATS! We need to stop fighting the republicans and work with them against our common enemy.

random???

noice.

I mean I can barely remember and hate using /s. at least it annoys me that things which to me is obviously sarcasm, cannot be seen as such on the internet. granted when hanging out and being sarcastic it was sometimes a win to get the double take or eh response.

I really feel it should not be necessary to ask them to site all sources though. It should be default behavior.

the comic is a kind of diary so its about whatever beens going on in her life. She tries to keep track of amusing stuff. Think of it about things you might tell as a story to your friends while hanging out. Some can come off as straight out jokes but some are like: Ok ok. so im at this rave and man this total frat boy comes in and is looking at me and waving and im like. whoa. I want to get away from this guy. So just as im looking to get as far away as I can. Get this. He starts macking on this other dude. Not just any dude but he practically looks like he could be on field and stream. Anway Im telling my buddy about how my douchedar is way off and hes all like. Oh no worries there. Our bears strung out on molly make eye contact with anyone coming in to where the douches just skaddadle.

yeah my thought was like how often is a web search “right”. To me ai search is just another version of search. its like at first searching gave you a list of urls, then it gave you a list of urls with human type names as well to make it more clear what it was, then it started giving back little summaries to give an idea of what each page was saying. now it gives you a summary of many pages. My main complaint is these things should be required to giver references and their answers should pretty much look like a wikipedia page but the little drop down carats or roll overs (although I prefer a drop down myself).

I mean those were pretty bad. He likely sold more than he would of to the chumps he grifted. I mean if ben and jerry owned my pillow and it was the same quality I would not have bought one.

before I was this specifically about it I made a comment to him buying one mentioning he said this. oh yeah a government that views not consuming in the right way. totally not an authoritarian nightmare.

was thinking of adding champions online and star trek online but it does not really fit their categories. I always felt they were nice because they were the opposite of l33t first person shooter type things with options to follow someone so that if you have a partner, auto targetting, and decent scripting support. Like in champs you can make a key to make block a toggle and star trek was well know for smashing the spacebar where you setup your abilities to be triggered by spacebar so it would run through them as you pressed it so pressing it like crazy was a thing. Timing was needed for content but not everyone in the group had to have super perfect timing.

This is the thing about boycotting amazon. musk lost the top spot in 2024 but bezos is still below him. I sorta would like him to drop more for 2025 and every year he so much as glances at politics/government.
