I’d rather have a New Deal 2

What this story reveals is the stunning level of ignorance amongst Americans at large. This is a bona fide fascist manifesto, published by the handlers of the current leading presidential candidate, over a year ago. Nothing rattles me to my core quite like being confronted by the harsh reality that a lot of people out there are just going about their lives like everything is fine.
These are the people we need to organize with in order to ― at this point ― basically survive, so I’m very glad something was able to spur them into some level of action before election day.
That said, and please excuse the momentary lapse into doomerism, but if we have to rely on Hollywood and celebrity culture to bring something of this magnitude into public awareness, we might be more thoroughly cooked than it was previously thought to be possible.
Honestly, huge shout out to the wave of enshittification crashing through Google and reddit and forcing me off their platforms. Decade-long debilitating addiction solved.
I kinda feel bad for the kid. I would absolutely hate if someone tried to use me as an excuse to get out of a huge mess of their own making. Sure, it sucks to not have your family there, but it’s not by the judge being “evil”. Trump engaged in criminal behaviour and that’s fully on him.
This might even be a good thing, now Barron can do one thing in his life without having his unscrupulous father show up and cause a disturbance.
I tend to think about it as density. Smaller chunks can be more tightly packed together, and are therfore more dense. As long as there is a way for the stuff to flow (i.e. shaking the bag), gravity will pull denser stuff to the bottom.
We probably could, but I think it would be a lot of effort for a relatively small gain. If you’re concerned about saturated fat intake, the most effective thing to do would be to cut back on meat and dairy products, since those are much more potent sources.
I’m no dietician, but I can’t imagine cooking oil makes up a significant portion of saturated fat intake for most people, when you consider the popularity of dairy in all its forms in western cuisine.
Trump’s writing style is inching dangerously close to Time Cube territory…
I agree 100%. “You’re welcome” is the phrase that everyone knows to be the direct response to a “thank you”, so using it implies the necessity of a prerequisite thanks. So really it’s just a polite way of saying “yeah you better be thankful.”
Whereas “no problem” seems to be a fairly sincere way to say “no thanks are needed, I’m helping because I want to.”
When your diffusion is too stable and it leaks out into physical reality…but is also a good boy
You don’t have to vote, don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.
Why does it sound like he’s got a mountain of fake ballots sitting in a warehouse that he’s gonna drop from a blimp or some shit.
This would normally be a compiler warning, but someone has enabled the -Werror
compiler option (probably in the makefile) which causes the compiler to treat all warnings as errors. You can just remove any -Werror
flags from the makefile and it should compile properly.
I used Clementine for years but the project eventually got abandoned. Now I use Strawberry, which is based on it. I’m still working out how to completely replace the default theme (folder colours, tooltips, other small details are stuck in adwaita mode) but other than that it’s an excellent music player.
If Russia is drafting foreigners who would otherwise not be there if not for Unilever, then this would be a profoundly evil thing. If they’re actually just drafting Russian citizens who happen to work at Unilever, then this might be a misleading headline. The article doesn’t specify.
(Unilever still sucks for paying Russian taxes and supporting their war effort)
It’s interesting that they’re worried about moderation. It wouldn’t seem like too hard of a thing for a $100 billion company to just hire some some folks to take care of that.
Honestly, this one is probably my favourite right now. Everyone seems pretty cool, the content is engaging, and there are discussions happening in practically every thread. Everything you could want in a community.
I would highly recommend python. It’s fairly simple syntactically, which makes it less overwhelming someone who’s just looking at code for the first time. It doesn’t force you to learn about functions and classes right away, like other languages would, so you can focus on the real basics until you’re ready to tackle the more abstract stuff.
The fact that it’s on the ‘simpler’ side doesn’t make it any less powerful, either. It’s one of the top languages used for neural net AI and data science. It’s also really great for throwing together a spur of the moment script when inspiration strikes, to automate a really boring task, for example. And yes, you can also make games with it.
Plus, the fundamental concepts that you use to solve problems with python are mostly the same in every language, so once you get proficient in one language, you’ll be able to pick up other languages much easier.
Whichever language you do end up choosing, good luck on your journey!
“Safer than [notoriously dangerous activity]” seems pretty on-brand with this guy
All I see here is an apparent admin of the site making a bunch of bad faith arguments and threatening to ban people who disagree with them.
I really wanted to like Beyond the Sea, but I feel like most of the plot of that episode could have been avoided if they had just sent the replicas into space instead. I think I must have missed the part where they explained why they couldn’t do that or something…
