Cool, but we also take Finland’s law about tuition: it’s illegal to charge it.
No private schools. It’s done wonders for their society because the rich people invest in the same schools as everyone else.

I accidentally started a video way outside my usual feed. It was some right wing fascist starting to talk about replacement theory bullshit. I closed it fast, but it was like a starter gun for YT to race every kind of conspiracy theory, right wing, Nazi supporting, women hating, christofascist channel it could try out to me. I had to block channel after channel for weeks until it gave up.
If someone takes (or tries) to take your vote they want to have you live in a dictatorship. We had a war about this and sent King George packing. If we have to do it again with people more home grown, then so be it.
Yes. A 12 year old is better at handling Alt-Right misinformation than the main steam media journalists.
Surprise! A right wing candidate is in support of a very right wing candidate: news at 11.
You don’t need the voters. You need the states.
We’re about to find out what happens when states refuse to recognize the winner of the Electoral College. Georgia, Arizona, and likely other states are going to fuck the state votes and refuse to certify.
If you can get enough state reps and congressional reps to vote for you each cycle (as VP), then take over from the sham president, you could effectively be president forever.
The important thing to me here is that he has a master’s degree and it took on tough subject matter with a larger perspective of how humanity needs to learn to no repeat this horrible actions of its past. He just keeps getting more awesome.
Harris/Walz 2024!
The last movie I went to in the theatre, I put in earplugs from the get go. I haven’t been to many movies in the theatre in decades, but I wanted to be cautious.
I could hear every sound from the movie with great clarity. Every whisper was still loud enough to bust through the earplugs. It’s just insane how loud they set it all up to be. How is that a good and attractive thing?
The GOP can get fucked. They foment violence, that energy reflects back.
Trump’s Project 2025 is not changed just because one of their own people was violent one time. The underlying truth of the situation has not changed, just moved closer to the logical conclusion when you try to end civil rights and install a dictatorship in the US. That ensures violence, and everyone will be caught in it at some point or another.
Fuck you. MAGA is inherently anti Republic and anti American. Get fucked.
Political violence is bad. That’s the reason Americans are still calling for justice against the MAGA mob and it’s leaders in Congress, SCOTUS, and White House at the time to be arrested, charged, and removed from our communities to protect this nation.
You’re enemies of us all, even if political violence is now become the norm under your auspices.
I paid $400 out of pocket with good insurance for a standard checkup in the US recently. Protect that NHS or you too will get to decide if you want to live or die with every injury.
Yeah, but you already have a king and we in the US just annointed our president king. Unless something changes hard for the better of the Republic in November, we’ll be a dictatorship in no time.
And your God emperor is signalling bloodshed if we let you do it.
You don’t negotiate or compromise with Nazis like the Project 2025 people.
Sorta. It’s a democracy with the voting and all that at this time. Since the person holding presidency is now above the law, then as long as the current president decides that we get to continue to have a republic, then we’re a republic. The moment a US president decides that it needs to be an official act to end voting, or just stall on voting indefinitely, then we stop being a republic. Basically, we’re living on borrowed time until the “by the people” part of the US nation is taken away by whomever we voted in as president last.
President Biden has the idea that he should respect the Constitution. He’s unlikely to decide to end the republic. If he gets reelected (and the conservatives don’t just kick off a civil war trying to end the election like they failed to do back in 2020), then we buy at least a few more years. Then… we go into a cycle where if benevolent dictators keep getting elected we stay afloat. The moment a populist gets elected president who also doesn’t personally decide to not take over as dictator, the republic ends.
The EU keeps doing amazing and tough things for humanity. I’m always astounded at how much they’re achieving and I wish my government had even a fraction of the EU’s current operational capability.
Except the Duchy won the war against the US and brought back a hydrogen bomb. They then used that threat to make the league of micro nations. The bomb didn’t work, but the threat of it allowed a tiny nation to gain leverage on the geopolitical stage.
If the PoE is stable, then it’s a nice and relatively unique board. Not sure about the NPU support. There’s a ton of boards and chips coming out with those claims, but I’d like to be able to get clearer info on drivers and library compatibility.
I haven’t had time to seriously game in a decade now (single dad killed my free time), so I’m by no means well versed beyond a few things. My kids do game a lot and most of them are on Linux machines. They use a combination of Steam and standalone installs to get things working.
I don’t run into a lot of complaints. They’re well aware that not all games run on their Linux setups, so they pick and choose games a bit more. I’m fortunate that they’re not always jonesing for the latest AAA games, but they’re also getting new ones with some regularity.
It also does it so that you no longer hit the bootloader. My one last dual boot machine is normally a Linux setup, but every so often I have to use the real MS Office tools (some collaborator or publisher demands it), so I boot windows. Then windows patches and stops actually hitting grub so it acts like a windows only machine until I fix whatever Microsoft fucks up yet again.
It’s time to move to a VM for this garbage. I just don’t neet it more than once every other year so I never seem to get around to nuking it.
Every Olympics is a political catastrophe. I’ve now watched all too many of them. They’re huge events and all it takes is some controversy or a fuck up by some middle manager and the whole world freaks out.
Overall, this one East that bad on France’s, except probably the river pollution thing (which I hope pushes them to long term cleanup efforts). Most of the rest was all the USA (we’re #1 in being assholes to people) being assholes. Our pearl clutching about religious insensitivity, transphobic right wing hatred, and generally bring dicks was well over the top. So, that’s not on France, but the US and our own swimming in Christian nationalist right wing sewage that spilled over onto the rest of the Olympics.
