Lots of places don’t have sun at all,

So your argument is that because extremes exist, fuck everyone on the planet? Like what kind of logic is that?

eople do things at all hours.

Ok, so get up when that happens if you want.

What? Like I said, we've arranged our society around 8 am. The vast vast vast vast vast majority of people have no choice in the matter.

Honestly I'm not sure you understand that we have (had?) aligned our time schedule to the sun. Daylight savings shifts that time schedule to be OUT of schedule to our sun. Yes the numbers themselves are arbitrary, but we have (had?) actually sceduled it to align with the sun. And it is daylight savings that wants to shift that so that we effectively have to get up an hour earlier because work/school starts at 8 am and doesn't change.

Think of this way, it's healthier to rise with the sun. That's how we've evolved for billions of years.

It's unhealthy to rise an hour before the sun. It's unnatural.

Call it 3 in morning, call it 10 in the morning.

??? It's not what we call it. It's when the sun actually rises. Like it or not we've arranged our society to start at 8 am (or 9 am in some places), so no we can't get up whenever we want.

And you do understand our circadian rythyms are connected to the sun right? The sun dictates our rhythms, not the other way around.

Who are you saying are morons here? The doubters or the sleep experts?

?? They really don't. They only care about the debt when Dems are in office.

I think the idea is that the dog can't walk around.

People think this is getting around the rule, but I think this is exactly what the rule wants. You should be able to contain and pick up your pet (to control it). If you can lift a hundred pound dog in a bag, you have it under control.

I heard the school was built on former military land. So could be a case of very outdated information.

So is there a war between the number on top and the number on bottom d4?

They don't care about money.

What? It's the other way around you know. Standard time means you rise with the sun, daylight savings means you rise an hour before it.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Same response. Like what are you thinking? Fuck over 99% of people for 1%? Correction the 1% is still fucked either way. So it's fuck over everyone for no particular reason.

Fox: "It's not a war!"

Trump: "It's a war."

 

That is all.

 

It will start with the 600,000 Venezuelans under Temporary Protected Status (revoked Jan 2025).

Then anyone that speaks Spanish.

Then everyone.

(Not necessary to complete each one before going to the next, but this will be the order it hits the news.)

 

Don't agree with everything but many good points.

 

The Supreme Court ruled on October 3, 2025, allowing the administration to strip legal protections from more than 300,000 Venezuelan migrants, putting on hold a lower-court ruling that had blocked the TPS termination. The Trump administration has moved to end TPS for 600,000 Venezuelans and 500,000 Haitians who received protection under former President Joe Biden.

U.S. District Judge Edward Chen in San Francisco had ruled last year that the DHS "acted with unprecedented haste" to terminate Venezuelan migrants' TPS status, finding that DHS made "decisions first and searched for a valid basis for those decisions second."

Appears that Noem ended TPS for Venezuelans last year Jan 2025.

 

Linux Mint XFCE.

Going into Mouse and Touchpad > Touchpad > Pointer Speed > Acceleration:

BUT changing the acceleration doesn't actually change acceleration, it adjusts speed.

Cinnamon and MATE have different sliders for speed and acceleration and actually worked.

*To clarify, there is only one slider. Yes I am selecting touchpad from the drop down box. The header says "Pointer Speed", the slider says "Acceleration" but adjusts speed. IIRC cinnamon has 2, one for speed and one for accleration, which is what you expect.

 

Then we lose Obamacare, leading to backlash against Trump who is then never reelected?

 

Exceptional take on the upcoming budget shutdown.

 

I hated lugging textbooks home, taking a chromebook home would've been much easier.

 

Of course this got me wondering about the etymology:

-stat

noun combining form

1: stabilizing agent or device thermostat

2: instrument for reflecting (something specified) constantly in one direction heliostat

3: agent causing inhibition of growth without destruction bacteriostat

 

Paraphrased:

The narcissist’s smirk is a subtle but telling expression that occurs when a narcissist experiences pleasure from manipulating or deceiving someone.

For narcissists, the smirk usually reflects contempt, which is a deep-seated disdain or lack of respect towards others. For narcissists contempt is tied to their belief in their own superiority. They view others who do not serve their needs as worthless or beneath them, showing a complete disregard for how their actions impact those around them.
