Hope you enjoy reading these comments in 3-5 days

Republicans never argue in good faith, and bending over backwards to give them what they want just shows them they can demand even worse terms next time.

Worst part about Lemmy being a tech heavy space is that so many users spout shit like “They’re not banning it, just deplatforming it” like yes, dipshit, that’s effectively a ban for something like 99% of people. You think 100,000,000 people are gonna fucking sideload the app? Love this place but it can be a bubble sometimes.

just thinking logistically, I imagine that happened a lot. Anyway I expect a decent number of his calls were made by aides and he just took the phone after they got through to the right person.

fta “Kotaku's staff will be expected to create 50 guides a week at the site.”

Yeah, I’d quit too. I mean, aren’t they just going to be drowning each other out at that point?

Pink Ranger staying #1 forever and always

Having visited in 2019, it was incredibly clean. They charged just a standard transient occupancy tax of I wanna say a few euros a day. But that’s multiplied by 24 million annual visitors staying for multiple nights each. I need to read this article when I get home and see what the new funds are earmarked for, because I remember being happy with everything from cleanliness to safety to transit while I was there.

Mundane* Missile

Republicans have a super majority in KY senate and house

Badonkadonk is a big butt, friend, not boobs.

Topical satire go brrrrr

Fuck you it’s already creeping up to 80 where I am and I fucking hate it.

There’s a lot of downvotes here which are valid, but I personally wouldn’t be opposed to paying a few bucks to the devs making Lemmy for a sticker to put on my laptop.

I suppose I would just want to see Lemmy’s principles set in legally binding stone before I would want to give them cash.

Edit: lemmy quickly add that I’m obviously no expert in any of this and these are just casual musings not clear directions haha

So I could set up a private instance on, say, a pi and then never be at risk of losing my account? (Particularly interested in things like subscribed communities and saved posts)

Justice Alito cited the 13th century English legal treatise De Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae when he allowed states to ban abortion so I guess it’s pretty inspiring.

Lol so true. Doesn’t change the fact that it’s an almost 800 year old citation being used by the majority opinion of the highest court in the land.

Talk about precedent.

“we are going to continue building our revolution, despite the tightening of the blockade”

I haven’t been following Cuba at all, can someone more knowledge expand on this? Has the US tightened the sanctions on Cuba? I thought we loosened them during the Obama years?

US Common Law directly traces its lineage to English Common Law, which in turn has its roots in Anglo-Saxon law. Courts still occasionally cite centuries old English legal cases.

Thanks for the link, I don’t see anything in there about the US “tightening” anything, though?

Guess it’s just a case of using hyperbolic language.

WoW sub included in game pass when???

Depends on the job field. I was combat arms, and I’d say it was around 50-60%

From my limited experience with non combat arms people, it seemed lower among them.

Probably treating as “forgetting to write down their steps” before jumping to cheating; presumably you’ve been teaching them to show their work and they forgot to do that here.

Give them the chance to show you how they solved it on the board, if they can then great! Give ‘em the points and send em on their way. If not, then give them a zero for that part of the test and move on.

And Biden even added a few more! That’s fucked up. Thanks for the link!
