Good point. Guess it just indicates how unpredictable he is. Just like how he said he’d build a wall, then built a little chunk of wall. It’s all about doing the minimum possible to placate his base.
I’m just here trying to get a grasp on what the actual implications of his presidency are going to be. :/
Half eaten salad? No, he’d never eat any of a salad. Not enough cholesterol.
Yeah, sure, he doesn’t care about tradition, I get that. But it also seems to me Trump has always been fairly anti-China. Ofc he’s also plenty happy to misrepresent his intent if it makes his base happy, so maybe that part was just a facade?
Isn’t this a bit of a predicament for Trump? Traditionally the US has supported Taiwan’s independence, and it seems to me that’d be continued under Trump’s “China bad” rhetoric/policy. However, getting chummy with Putin might require rescinding support for Taiwan’s independence.
Am I missing something here?
I really wanted to like DS. The world seems really interesting, and so does the story. Maybe I didn’t give it enough of a chance, but I found the gameplay to swing between boring and frustrating, with a side of gorgeous scenery.
It did seem strange how poorly things end with the voodoo boys. You can get out without a fight, but you can’t make any friends. It seems to me like asides from kinda betraying you, they’d make for pretty natural allies against netsec and Arasaka.
So no, I don’t think that was just you.
Oh hey, an upside down bird! Neat!
Friend, could you kindly use paragraphs? I’d like to read what you’re saying, but It makes your text vary hard to parse without.
Wordle gets a lot easier with some strategic opening word choices. The basic strategy is to pick words eliminating RSTLNE early (the “wheel of fortune” strategy), as those are the most commonly used letters.
There’s also a more specific strategy aiming to win on the 3rd guess by maximizing common letters and placements using two predetermined opening guesses. “Clint” and “soare” were found to be the most optimal, but any combo on that list would be a very good pick.
Honestly, in a managed environment, there’s not really much learning to do. All the hard part of learning Linux is dealing with system issues, or when shit breaks. In corporate land, you’ve got IT staff for that.
The biggest hurdle would be learning libre office, but considering the average white collar level of mastery of MS office is pretty poor, the basics really aren’t that different in LO.
Last year, the Liberals announced more than $30 billion in new projects, with much of that going to U.S. firms.
Ah, I see our protection fee is due.
I’m not entirely sure since it wasn’t my comment, but personally I wouldn’t find it unreasonable to dislike a platform solely based on who owns it, and want to discourage its use. That’s especially true for someone in the fediverse, as I think most of us ended up here due to the continual enshitification of reddit.
I read it more as someone just venting annoyance about the article relying on twitter embeds in the first place – something that’s not unreasonable to block – more than looking for a solution.
Corn starch or cornmeal?
Surely that means he also took a hefty pay cut to keep on as many people as possible. Wouldn’t that be what accepting accountability looks like?
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
My lord, these people are idiots…
I read about this early today and thought the media was over-exaggerating, but nope, I guess not.
Just to explain why people are confused:
If it were 100% of men voting Trump, and 100% of women voting Harris, your math would give a 200% swing, so you’re essentially double counting. Divide by 2 to get the actual swing %.
