In that case don't watch the trailer, because it looks as fun as it sounds and might as well experience those scenes in the theater.

They don’t deserve a medal for saying “Whoops, I fucked up” after fucking up extremely hard, but is telling them to fuck off serving the greater good, or just giving us an opportunity to feel superior?

Coddling their feelings of inadequacy lead to Trump being elected twice, so telling them to fuck off can't be any worse.

she regrets voting for Donald Trump — a decision she believes contributed to her father’s detention by immigration authorities

Belief is for things that can't be proven. She knows voting for Trump led to this, but doesn't want to admit that to herself.

Within the last seven days I went to a Weird Al concert and it was even better than expected. Last tour was low key with just four on stage in smaller venues, this was the stage show with costumes and like 8 people on stage.

Puddles the Clown opened and hot damn that guy has stage presence in the most ridiculous way. His running gags with Kevin Costner are solid.

The video for Radioactive with the underground muppet fighting ring is comedy gold, but I assume it was someone else's idea.

Damn. I thought it may be the proprietary, bug and exploit ridden, hacked together shit such stuff by governments often is.

Nope, it is the proprietary, bug and exploit ridden, hacked together shit such stuff by private companies often is.

I accidentally hit characters and assume they all see me 'typing' for the next 12 hours until I notice.

Yeah, My reasoning is more, like 80% of the AI companies and services are from the USA. If they passed a law, that’d have you covered for the biggest chunk of it.

Guess where they are working on passing a law to ban regulation of AI for a decade? Sure, the current version was just defeated, but the odds of flipping completely and actually regulating AI are absolutely nil.

It is literally our current system where we pool taxes to pay for large projects like parks and sidewalks and plazas and public fountains and water utilities.

All the capatalist and socialist countries do it.

For example imagine ur in a desert with 1000people and your all dying of thirst and it costs 1000currencies to build a well to get water. But the richest person only has 100currencies. Nobody can afford to build a well and now everyone dies. With stocks that means that everyone can put a couple currencies in and in return get a shair of the water.

With ur proposal how in the hell would u build a well? Where do u get the 1000currencies u need to build it?

Functioning governments exist to help manage pooled resources.

 

There is one user from another instance that I have Blocked, but their comments still show up in posts. I have tried unblocking and blocking them again, and their posts are hidden on their profile when blocked. Examples below are seeing their comment, clicking on their name, and seeing that they are already blocked. This is the only user where this is the case, and I've blocked their name and instance (not lemmy.world) but can provide it on request.

 

I'm sick and it is still snowing so I didn't do the whole patio, but did scoop two paths for the dogs to reach some grass. Can't do one because they will assume the other side would have been better and just hold it in.

Will need to redo them in a few hours when the dogs are ready to go again.
