The problem is that most colleges, at least in the US, aren’t really about expanding knowledge, they’re about checking items off a list. The vast majority of your required coursework isn’t supposed to be teaching anything, it’s to pad out your hours and inflate your tuition. And for that privilege you’ll be paying enough money every year to force the average person into multiple decades worth of debt.
Is it still passing the Turing test if you don’t think either one is human?
I agree with everything you said except this:
And of course she lost, because Trump did have an ambitious plan to transform America, and he convinced Americans his plan would leave them better off, and Americans looked at how they were better off under Trump’s first term than they were under Biden and made the obvious choice.
Trump never had a plan ambitious or otherwise. He has always been inherently reactionary, and what he does do unprompted is always a complete failure. Americans were demonstrably not better off under Trump’s first term, at best they weren’t any worse off, but nothing Trump did his first term helped the American public.
Trump has spent his entire political career being manipulated by various groups, be it project 2025, Putin, or Rupert Murdoch by way of Fox News. He’s a giant toddler perpetually throwing a tantrum.
While you are right lets not pretend a Democrat majority Congress would have changed a damn thing. Democrats have been economically conservative for decades now. The only thing the two parties really disagree on is social policies. Both parties are perfectly fine with an oligarchy running things.
This will surely help stimulate the economy and get Millenials to finally start participating in the housing market right? Right?
Ban food dyes, artificial or not, or at least limit them somewhat. People have this illogical knee-jerk reaction to the words artificial and natural as if those imply some kind of value judgement. There’s tons of natural stuff you don’t want anywhere near you and plenty of artificial stuff that’s super beneficial, people need to stop assuming natural means healthy and artificial means unhealthy.
Also yes, ban fucking pharmaceutical ads.
You know that South Park episode where Japan is trying to use Pokemon to conquer the US and every time someone from the US goes to ask them about it they distract them by saying how huge their penis is? I can pretty much guarantee that tactic would work against Trump. Just tell him that he’s winning and how amazing he is and how much you’re being screwed over by him and he’ll be happy.
That seems to apply to the majority of law enforcement who in general seem to be the absolute last people that should have any kind of authority over anybody else. There’s a reason something crazy like 60%+ of police commit domestic abuse.
Small dick energy.
It’s a standard cop intimidation tactic. There was this really toxic concept that cops were (still are?) taught that they need to “take command” of every situation and one of their first priorities is to intimidate and scare anyone who doesn’t immediately start blindly following their instructions. They perceive asking questions as a threat to their “authority” that needs to be eliminated at all costs.
More like 1930.
Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?
Get ready for a bunch more 1 and 2 day outages because someone forgot/missed the deadline to renew some crusty server somewhere. This is such massive overkill for most servers. End users should start getting used to that expired certificate warning in their browser of choice and the process to tell it to continue to the site anyway.
The point is that’s not a watchlist, that’s just a panopticon authoritarian state. Big Brother is always watching.
Nothings been saved yet, this is just a pause. There’s pretty good evidence (although circumstantial) that this was just for a last minute pump and dump, and that once they’ve finished extracting more money from the market he’ll resume tanking it.
Don’t worry, they’re working hard to pump up those unemployment numbers as well. Not going to be long before people are starving in the streets, not because there’s no food, but because the average person just won’t be able to afford it.
I wouldn’t hold my breath if I was you. The current DNC is too afraid that they’ll scare off the rich donors if they attack Republicans. They’re worried about collateral damage if they take pot shots and accidentally hit one of the rich donors.
Both the GOP and the DNC want to focus on culture war bullshit rather than anything class related because neither wants to do anything that would run counter to the interests of the ultra wealthy.
Part of the problem is the cold war propaganda was so laser focused on “communism bad” that much of why the USSR was bad was lost. The older generation still have a knee jerk reaction to the word communism that right wing media frequently exploits to generate a cheap emotional reaction by accusing any group they don’t like of being communist. Meanwhile the real horrors of the USSR are largely ignored lest people start drawing parallels with current events.
It also is using absolute numbers rather than any kind of normalized scale. If a country of 5 billion people has a million leave that’s not exactly the same thing as a country with a population of 10 million having a million leave. A lot of these sorts of things suffer from this problem where the maps end up matching very closely to maps of population density.
Yes and no. Even when refreshing rapidly the power draw is still significantly lower than something like an LCD, but not as low obviously as when refreshing slowly. It is nice to have the option of a high refresh rate if needed occasionally, but since every eink display I’ve seen with it to date suffers from absolutely horrendous ghosting when doing so the utility is highly questionable. Lets just say I am very skeptical of that claimed 30 Hz refresh rate and highly suspect it’s impractical marketing BS.
The 5th and 6th amendments say otherwise.
