Voting no on this CR is not voting for a shutdown. It's voting for a different CR. Voting yes is giving up without a fight and giving Trump whatever he wants. This is the first chance since the election for the Democrats to oppose Trump through official channels, and Schumer rolled over immediately. If they do nothing now, we already have a one-party autocracy.
Appeasing fascists is a time-tested losing strategy. If the choice is between shutdown and give Trump whatever he wants, I think the answer should be clear. Trump is already speed running a federal collapse. Might as well deny him the damage he would do in the interim.
I've been donating for a while. Not pleased to learn about the lavish CEO pay. Probably going to stop.
I once had a person refuse to troubleshoot a monitor issue over the phone. 2.5 hours away. Swore to me that they hadn't messed with the monitor cables since it last worked. They had both ends of the HDMI plugged into the same monitor.
Good Lord, I thought that was just the OP's screwup. Nope, it's on the actual source page. What a bummer.
"It's just history" seems unhelpfully dismissive. Duh. The black death was history too, and half of Europe's population died.
Newsweek could report that the sky was blue, and I'd still look for a second source before believing it.
Those terms are unenforceably vague. It's not even close. Mozilla needs to pay an actual lawyer to write a policy for them.
But I was hysterically assured that AI was going to take all our jobs?
That's a strange conclusion you got to. 96% of all mammal life on Earth is either humans or animals specifically bred to be our food. One species; 96% market share. Over 5000 other species combined only are 4%. Because we killed them all via predation or taking their habitat.
As a sysadmin in a Microsoft shop, it has a lot of management features that I like. Users generally love Chrome and hate Firefox (for some reason, I dunno) so Edge was a good compromise while it still supported ublock.
Can't tell if this is satire or just more deluded, out of touch wishful thinking. Don't get me wrong: I would LOVE to see Microsoft dethroned. But Windows would have to become literally unusable before we see a mass migration to Linux.
The bots have really ramped up since Trump took office again. Seeing so many top comments with thousands of upvotes just gaslighting the shit out of frightened Americans, telling them they need to touch grass and everything is fine...it's so chilling.
Yeah, or just dead people.
Entertainment for his cultists. They like seeing troops on the border. More importantly, they're tearing down the global economy on purpose so they can remake it as they please. If Trump gets his demands met, he knows he can go farther next time. If not, things collapse and his accelerationist billionaire buddies are happy.
