Democrats: “Either you vote us or you are fucked. And no you won’t get what you really want (the end of the genocide, healthcare, whatever), but you can choose to eat out shit or the republican’s. Are you happy with that? No? Fuck you and vote Harris anyway ah ah ah. You don’t have a choice, we don’t give a shit about you and your problems but you have to vote us. You have to.”

You see, people are realising that their vote is useless by design, and maybe the only way to change something is to punish the party that pretend to be the good one, the one that pretend to be at your side and pretend to work for you but it really doesn’t.

They are making you believe that democracy is just about preventing the others to get elected because they are worst. No it’s not, and you should stop being a victim and do something, anything, to force them to change. Even if you get 4 years of Trump: whoever think that it makes a difference is delusional, he’s just blatant fascist while Harris is secretly fascist. They are just two different seasoning for the same plate of shit.

Yes, the Taliban were armed and financed by USA.

It’s just PR for his company, Athena or whatever the fuck is called. The real and simple answer is: employers want to pay workers the minimum necessary, ideally zero, while extracting as much work they can from them. The natural consequence is that the smartest workers will job-hopping until they can, to work less for more money. Long story short: it’s how capitalism work.

Which mini pc? I have an Intel NUC Intel i5 and looking for something smaller but can run a dev desktop (xfce, vscode, node, docker).

We already know, you idiot: fascisms thrives when inequality is on the rise and capitalists feel threatened.

Lack of workers rights, as usual. In (most of) Europe those monitoring systems are illegal, as it should be.

Yes

The notorious land of the freedom.

Also killing wounded/unconscious/incapacitated/hospitalised/trying-to-surrender enemies is a war crime. They just don’t give a fuck because nobody stops them.

I’m confused, is he doing exactly what he said he would do?

People always think of the money! Let’s worry about finding the tourists and bring them back to their families for now!

BTW you might want to not tell anyone: there are a few stories on Reddit of people that were fired after they (or someone else) automated some time-consuming tasks like that.

Half the time written on the box, believe me if you want a perfect “al dente”. Anyway the problem of everybody outside Italy is that they boil the water with the pasta in.

Cool, then do like your friend and trust youtube. Good luck!

Understanding who is lying is also impossible for the majority of us not having the specialized education etc etc (see no.1), so I just trust the scientific consensus. It’s so easy!

I uninstalled Reddit

What?

I’d be worried about breaking compatibility across the lemmyverse.

That is precisely the reason why you are not “free to add new features without having to battle over philosophies”.

To me you either 1) have the many years of specialized education required to understand (for real) how vaccines works, or 2) trust the national and international institutions that vouches the work of estimeed scientists, or 3) do your research and perhaps watch your children die of fucking measles.

Trying to convince someone that chose no.3? Your only hope is to make them understand that they cannot understand, a very very hard task.

it’s a pretty stupid system because judges are elected by politicians, period. In other countries the justice is completely independent - for example in Italy (were we still have a lot of different issues) judges are elected by their peers.
