so your points are that this is not your fault, it's the rest of the world's… there is nothing you can do because any option is just too hard and/or you won't get the credit and/or is not guaranteed to succeed…

Do you still wonder how fascism festered and flowrished in your country or should I spell it out more clearly?

Fuck. You don’t know me. You think this is what I want for my country?

That's not the point. I am not even blaming YOU, I am blaming "America". I guess I could have been more clear but the point is that all you said is real and a huge concern for the rest of the world. That, added to the inability of the USA to stop putting its finger in the rest of the world's ass (and not in a fun way), means most cannot like America

As for the rest, man you, and here I will be clear, YOU = THE AMERICAN PEOPLE need to stop thinking about your individual selves and start organizing for the benefit of the many.

While the American people keep holding "Fuck you, Got Mine" as your core principle, you will all just keep speed running down the drain.

Unfortunately for you (yes, you the individual now), your country is too far gone for things to change in any significant way in your lifetime. Most likely, your generation (and likely the next one as well) will need to take the steps, which will imply sacrifices, for the benefit of the generations to come

Based solely on your own post, do you now understand why the world hates you?

so, no taking pictures while they perform the sport... only before and after pics?

Correct... the standard English interpretation is that a "couple" is 2 and a "few" is 3... 3 days at 8 hours per day should give you 24 hours of work, so he was working less than anyone with a normal full time job...

It's so shitty it no longer classifies as a "State"

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago

Agreed... I had a Golf 2017 and loved it to death but the service at the dealership (all the ones I tried which I think where 3 total) was SO BAD, I basically gave up on the brand... which turned out to be a good thing because they have been in heavy decline since as you correctly point out

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago

No I get they are not selling but it's not like these cars are artisanal and need 1000 workers to make each per day.

I guess I have a hard time understanding that VW can fire 50,000 people (on top of the many thousands they have already laid off recently) and still have a functioning global business

The Trump administration has forced a Canadian-backed renewable energy company to abandon its landmark wind power project — and is demanding an equivalent investment in US fossil fuel development if the company wants to recoup $120 million USD in offshore wind leases.

Hi Lemmy,

I want to do a project that involves concrete. Basically I am making steps, giving them texture and stamping them so it looks somewhat like stones.

I have watched a million videos and I feel I can tackle this, plus I have a lot of areas to practice that won't be too visible so if the steps look a bit amateur it's fine.

My biggest question is about the effort of mixing concrete. I have a corded drill with a mixing paddle and most steps won't require much. However a few are larger and I would have to mix 10 bags or so. The drying time allows me to work one at a time and then do my stamping but I was wondering if this is feasible from an effort perspective.

I am an experienced DIYer but have not worked much with concrete, I made a coffee table, post bases, etc but never something that requires so many bags... am I setting myself up for failure / a broken back? hehehe

 

"Unexpectedly"... who would have thought that taking a chainsaw to all establish trade could be an issue?!
