Sorry what? In May, wages began rising faster than inflation for the first time in years. That stuff you just listed doesn't just go away immediately overnight after decades of dumbass Ragenomics
Lol technically true but just like the nation's wealth, it's skewed to the top 1% of offenders, in this case all one person
Products getting shittier and counterfeits running rampant. Sometimes the original might as well be a counterfeit. Amazon doesn't care because it makes them money. I try to buy things from actual stores these days, but even then the quality of products is just so bad sometimes.
Like, not "oh this kitchen scale feels cheap and flimsy" but "uhh this scale doesn't weigh things right half the time"
Bruh it's a scale, how hard could it be
This reflects a lack of understanding of the good that comes out of space research. SpaceX exists because Republicans defunded NASA. Space experiments help us solve problems on earth. Not to mention we depend on satellites for everything in our daily lives from weather predictions to communications. Not all of space is "hurr durr I'm Elon musk let's go to Mars!" In fact most of it isn't.
It's not a good idea to lump the left into "Palestinian support". Some people on the left are still pro Israel, although probably a result of western propaganda. Those that are not pro Israel, all recognize that Israel is bad. The level of bad ranges from as little as kills women and children all the way to genocide. Some people take it as far as being anti Jew, which sucks because all of the Jews that wouldn't live in Israel/support the oppression of those that were there first don't live in Israel. The problem isn't Jews, it's western imperialism and Israel.
My take is, Israel was created 75 years ago by the US and UK as a way for the west to maintain control in the middle east when their previous efforts failed. Israel has never respected their borders, has constantly been expanding by brutal force, holds the Gaza strip hostage, and doesn't allow Palestinians within their borders to leave or get citizenship. (I don't recall the number of Palestinians within the border but 200,000 is sticking in my head?)
Israel's "right" to the land is imposed by the west after WWII, and the reality is it was the home of Palestinians.
Now, on the other side of things, Hamas has expressed the desire to eradicate Jews from the earth multiple times. If they had the backing of the west the situation would be reversed, potentially worse. But I would argue Hamas wouldn't be in power if Israel wasn't formed 75 years ago. When millions of people are oppressed and murdered on the regular for 75 years, that's a recipe for radicalization.
Oh, and I didn't even get to the religious part. Islam is an abrahamic religion, a descendant of Judaism, although they don't seem to like to talk about that. Jerusalem is the holy land of the Jews, and therefore it's also the holy land of Islam (and technically Christians too, although I don't think any of them care anywhere near as much). Both the Jews in Israel and the Palestinians believe they are gods chosen people of that land. I would say most Jews today don't feel the need to own that land, but most Jews in Israel do. Trump moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem which was a dick move, because it was technically still shared territory at that point. But anyway, radical religious conservatives become terrorists when given the right environment.
My final take, Israel and Hamas are both terrorist organizations who desire eradication of the other ethnicity, but Israel has the backing, propaganda, and sympathy of the West.
Seems like plenty of people are using it?
Just don't use Ubuntu and don't use flatpacks
In the United States, it's called the department of motor vehicles. It would be pretty weird if almost all motor vehicles lacked motors.
KIA may not agree with that, but they're also wrong. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/motor

Hopefully I don't need to keep linking dictionaries.
Scientifically speaking, writing with your hand helps a lot with memory and learning, while typing does not have nearly the same effect. Also, a lot of handwriting apps are still garbage. It's also nice for focusing to not be using a cell phone. Other than that, some people probably just like it
I mean, personally I use keyboard and mouse quite frequently. I use window manager to make tasks that are less efficient on mouse (like resizing, snapping, or moving windows) move to keyboard.
I was referring to those within Israel's borders when I said 200k, but the clarification matters so thanks!
Cars. And I really like to talk reliability and engine design and other design related stuff, most car people don't even care about that. (Obviously there are plenty who do)
Wouldn't that just cover both sides of every war?
That didn't answer the question
Yes
What's your favorite 8-bit computer and why is it the NES?
Bloody hell, I literally just switched to Lemmy.world, do I really need to switch to Lemmy.ml? Come on guys
Have you ever been to Starbucks?
Engines are a type of motor
He* ?
It's still less broad at least
Same here, gib back
Lol cool, what's your favorite car and why
I agree, but I go often enough to know that I do actually expect the real fruit to be in the drink, and now wonder what I've been chewing on that tastes like mango. It's definitely advertised that way, and starbursts are not
Turns out, freeze dried pineapples (in the paradise drinks). I thought it was mango. Honestly now that I realize they weren't saying what I thought they were, this does seem somewhat frivolous
They're still federated with exploding-heads and rammy.site so they didn't make my short list
By the broadness of the definition presented, I would say that soldiers killing soldiers instills terror in soldiers, so therefore it would still cover them. But to be clear, I disagree with a definition so broad
Or, I'll just keep calling them engines/motors like everyone else does. Also, I am a car type.
I think that's cool! Little tiny engine powering a modern car. Likely with a gear ratio designed to make it feel peppy up until ~60mph
I didn't say the answer was to destroy Israel. I don't think it should have existed in the first place, and Zionism is just more religious imperialism, but that doesn't mean destroy Israel. It also doesn't mean alllow Israel to basically commit genocide in response to an attack that was a response to decades of oppression and murder.
I don't know where you got the idea that I want to destroy Israel, in the 75 years that it's been there, plenty of people have been there their entire life at this point. It's a shitty situation all around.
That's a very pretty car indeed, I just realized I don't have a favorite right now. I really like old fairlady Z cars and old BMWs, love the look of the e30 m3
I guess that's debatable. Given that Israel itself came into existence when the US and UK recognized it as a state, I consider recognizing Jerusalem as the capital the same thing as moving it from Tel Aviv, but maybe that's misleading because it ignores nuance.
They were asking about the severance pay though? Did you reply to the wrong comment?
SNES is 16 bit but I'll let it slide lol
All gas/diesel engines are motors, both by dictionary definition and colloquially. Nobody calls an electric motor a DC engine, but that has nothing to do with gas engines regularly being called motors.
Good but can we also do the billionaires?
