I don’t know if it’s good or bad that service doesn’t guarantee citizenship.

Probably good tbh.

Mike Lee dropped the massive federal land sell off from the bill because he “was unable to secure clear, enforceable safeguards to guarantee that these lands would be sold only to American families—not to China, not to BlackRock, and not to any foreign interests”.

At least that major ecological disaster has been avoided.

For now.

Calling them losers doesn’t have a material effect. Firing them does.

Upload the image first, move the url to the thumbnail url, then paste in your actual url.

Edit: or do you mean editing an existing post? I guess you could paste the image in the comment field then copy the url.

Hopefully he doesn't go AOC on us.

When you want prices to stay the same but price controls are too socialist.

It’s funny how often socialists could achieve the goals of conservatives better than the conservatives can.

Want to bomb foreign countries without gas prices surging? Nationalize the gas industry.

Want your people to have more babies? House them, feed them, give them healthcare and education.

Think “family values” are being lost? Combat societal alienation by making people’s lives better and creating spaces that encourage neighborly cooperation.

Stalin made a mistake in not annexing Finland.

Fuck that. There's no good reason to let it just die. Call a wildlife preserve and ask for instructions*. If they say that same bullshit (they probably won't), then take it in, feed it, try to asses if it's hurt, and look up ways to help it heal.

If it survives but is no longer able to be wild for some reason (because being healed kills some instinct or some bullshit?), you have a pet now. Better than it being fucking dead. If it dies, you had a net zero affect anyway.

* this thread's outcome of "it's seems like it's ok, let it be while keeping an eye on it", is probably exactly what they'd tell you in this case.

Literally the only thing that could live up to that is a nuke hitting Tel Aviv.

Wow, the game is even shittier than I expected.

 

So glad we’ve spent millions of dollars and unfathomable amounts of energy to give computers the ability to talk to each other over the phone. Something that definitely didn’t exist before now.

 

I hate scrum

I hate stand up

I hate sprints

Fuck Toyota

How have we taken the most autistic job and tacked a stupid, worthless, autistic unfriendly process on to it? (the answer of course is capitalism)

I want to quit but I can't get another job and even if I could it would just be more of this shit.

 

I wanted to block Google's shitty AI results. Ok it looks like I can add &udm=14 to the url to do that.

Let me just add a custom search engine in Firefox... oh wait apparently you can't add custom search engines anymore. You have to install an extension for that.

Ok I found an extension that does it but it makes Firefox say "search with [extension name]" instead of "search with Google" and the icon is different which is annoying.

Should be an easy fix, just download the extension's source and modify the manifest.json to name it "Google" and change the icon to Google's.

Alright now let's install it and... "This add-on could not be installed because it has not been verified." Wtf I have to sign my own add-ons just to use locally?

Fine whatever download the shitty npm program to sign the add-on (it downloaded 400 dependencies btw). Oh wait I need an API key to sign the add-on to use it locally. I'm not getting a fucking API key to run local code.

Oh good there's actually an about:config setting to disable add-on signing... and it doesn't work anymore.

screm-a AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Is there a good Firefox fork that undoes this bullshit but otherwise keeps up with the main codebase and isn't a pain to switch to?
