A number of measures to help students concentrate are taken during the annual event such as closing the country’s airspace and delaying the opening of the stock market.
That is what thinking of the children really looks like. Here in the US we just make stupid age verification laws for porn sites like it is going to make porn hard for teenagers to get.
Match him right and maybe it could be like The Viper and the Mountain.
Rudy vs Alex
Which is blatant incompetence considering there is a very straightforward RFC covering domain names.
Juries have a LOT of discretion regarding damages in civil cases. The damages are what the 12 jurors say it is.
Which is completely irrelevant to the legitimacy of chiropractic.
When is the last time you went to a hospital and saw a chiropractic department? When was the last time you went to a hospital and saw an orthopedics department? I have never had an MD recommend I see a chiropractor, but I have been sent to an orthopedist who sent me to PT. It worked.
What’s also mind boggling is the USAF F-15 has zero combat losses and is the OLD air superiority fighter. The USAF can start operating anywhere in the world with a force larger than most other air forces in < 72 hours.
The US Navy has more heavy aircraft carrier groups than the rest of world combined. The US has 11 out of 22. It also has the world’s largest and most advanced air force. Old US Army equipment is working wonders for Ukraine against Russia, the supposed next best military.
Not to mention the US has a massive arsenal of working ICBMs and SLBMs.
I’m sorry, but nobody stands a snowballs chance in hell against the US military.
Regarding Iraq and Afghanistan, nation building and occupying are two different things. Kind of like ruling verses obtaining power are different.
ETA: Think about that during presidential elections.
Maybe if you provide a few examples, it would help provide some insight?
Why does Israel need military aid? They are by far the superior force. Their response to it is worse than the US response to the 2001 attacks.
I’m not against parking a carrier group off the coast to prevent some other country from taking advantage of the situation, but I don’t see why Israel needs US help.
To get the hell outta dodge. It is the best way for a young American with few ties to get a fresh start in life.
You start getting paid the second you leave, you get health, dental, housing, food, gym membership, discounts, job training, and education paid for. If you lock into your contract a specific job, it takes longer to ship out, but you won’t get stuck doing IT if you want to work on tanks or planes or whatever.
I’m not delusional, there is a very real chance you will see combat of some sort. Even POGs (basically non combat jobs) that are deployed to bases in active conflicts will get the joy of being on the bad end IDFs (indirect fire attack, basically mortars, rockets, artillery, etc).

Lots of things are holding us back.
Too much risk starting a business. There is no guarantee you will get a job as good as you left if the business fails. You can lose the opportunity cost on investments so you can retire or cover a major expense. Health insurance is usually provided by jobs, so you risk access to medical care.
Health insurance is provided by employers. Changing job carries risk of getting insurance that will screw you over or have more out of pocket costs than any raise can make up for.
Housing costs are so high moving is risky. Buying a place to live at these levels could land you underwater if the market crashes.
Transportation almost requires a car, which are money pits even if you get a reliable car that is efficient and you DIY maintenance. You still need parts, insurance, registration, taxes, and fuel. Driving in the United States of Asphalt sucks because traffic jams are frequent in many areas. Since it is practically mandatory, you get to share the road with high people, irresponsible people, people driving cars that are unsafe to even look at, sleep deprived people, and people that for whatever reason can’t drive well.
Child care. We get so little parental leave that isn’t even paid leave and pay out the ass for early childhood care. If you have more than 2 small children, it is probably cheaper to hire a private nanny.
Shitty shit. Shitty toys. Shitty furniture. Shitty appliances. Shitty clothes. Shitty shingles. Shitty carpet. There is a lot of shitty shit out there that should never have been made that is long term more expensive than good shit. All that shitty shit filling our shitty houses that we drive home in shitty canyoneros took energy and materials provided by or extracted using fossil fuels. Then it was shipped using fossil fuels. Then when a fire/tornado/hurricane/whatever wrecks our shitty shit we have to pay a shitty insurance deductible and a higher shitty premium.
Go set theory!
Religion is a subset of the set of belief systems.
Elon Musk is a member of the set of billionaires. We could define a set with one member, Elon Musk. It would be a subset of billionaires.
This comment needs more attention. Sometimes I wash Lemmy had awards like Reddit to make important things visible.
Never would be allowing someone to scream racial slurs and ignoring it. Rarely and sometimes should be replaced with “it depends”. Always probably means the same thing as sometimes since you aren’t going to shout down a good speaker that you agree with. The whole survey doesn’t make sense when you stop to think about it.
That’s not woke, that’s blackmail.
That’s worse. That sort of shit turns ignorant and gullible people anti-LGBT and makes their already difficult lives even harder.
who need a cause to give her their miserable lives purpose
Tell them to fight global warming. It is the problem that makes all other problems all but irrelevant in comparison.
We wouldn’t take China and China wouldn’t take us because of highly interdependent economies and nukes. It would be suicide for both of us.
Alan Turing, a mathematician and gay man, is right up there with Oppenheimer, Churchill, Macarthur, and Stalin in level of importance towards the allied victory in WW2.
I’m a veteran. A lot of really good troops in technical fields tended to not serve all that long due to better quality of life outside of the military. An ace technical troop is worth their weight in gold.
Various types of mechanics and technicians, logisticians, network admins, equipment operators, pilots, various engineers, and other technical troops are the real power of the US military. Most of those are more technical than physical.
It isn’t brawn that keeps around 100 USN ships deployed around the world at any given time. It isn’t brawn that gives the USAF a 48 hour turn around time for operating anywhere in the world. It isn’t brawn that keeps large ground forces supplied at bases all around the world. It is education, brains, and training.
Probably. I’m old enough to remember teenagers getting sued for using Napster, Gnutella, and others back in the 2000s. It isn’t the admin or mods they need to worry about.
Conservative = my group is better than yours so we deserve power and resources
Tactics:
Scape goating a weak group to sell it to a lower class (E.g. Pre MLK US blacks - poor whites)
Appealing to fear and presenting a protector strong man
Appealing to tradition and good old days (that sucked)
Anti intellectualism
