What exactly does that have anything to do with murdering her? I don’t care if she was the president of Antifa, Tren de Aragua division, what they did to this woman was a straight up hit. Douchebag wanted to shoot someone so he did.

Yeah Amazon will figure out a way to enshittify them for sure. Most. Likely with a subscription program for what should be totally standalone.

I have them. I also have a large monitor both at home and at work that the sweet spot for being able to focus is a narrow range toward the bottom. So I have a pair of single vision computer glasses that I either misplace or forget I’m still wearing when I leave the office to drive home. So I’m still constantly switching glasses. Yeah I know …. first world problems. I want my old eyes back. Getting old sucks.

I just want a technological fix for what my eyes used to be able to do on their own.

As a 55 man constantly switching glasses, taking them off, losing the “right” pair, etc. please please please …

Well it could be worse. You could wake up and actually be in the US.

Now that you mention it I have one of those too. Somewhere.

Wow that description as “extremely patient and gives very detailed explanations/arguments” is kinda on the nose isn’t it. Good on you for having the time and patience to help educate people.

In my opinion any country legitimately trying to better their people is a good thing. At least way better than trying to enrich the same 10 billionaires over and over again.

I’d consider myself more of a fan of social democracies. Ultimately the problem seems to be that no one is truly altruistic or even future thinking. As a species we are greedy, short sighted, with tiny short attention spans.

If my math is right this would be worth about 9.8 million today if the shares were issued in 2004 ish.

I never had one but IMO Zune was one of the few Microsoft hw wins. And their mice.

I was of the opinion tankie was just a term given to Russian or Chinese fans/apologists. People that think these governments can do no wrong which is just dumb and naive. And thinking they can do no right is just as naive. As oppressive as the Chinese government can be, they have been at least making some interesting choices in regards to science and technology recently. But people are getting labeled as tankie because of support for socialist ideas? Like government healthcare and social safety nets?

Blocking cloudflare is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. Unless they start blocking IPs like the great firewall of china blocking any DNS is kinda pointless. Unless maybe if the domain’s primary name servers are cloudflare but I can’t seeing any site doing nefarious things using cloudflare. Run your own DNS resolver on a VPS somewhere besides Italy.

My worry is the internet starts getting terribly segmented and not interconnected. That would be more of an issue.

Not so much working together but definitely share the same masters.

Because he did such a good job and “earned” it …

I know this is pointless since you’ve already put on the obstinate troll hat but here goes.

First, one of this things they teach to cops is not stand in front of a vehicle that can run you over (my son is a cop). You keep at least an arms length between you and the vehicle and never in its path of motion. The ICE officer should not have been in that position in the first place.

Secondly if he was worried about his own safety his first instinct would have been jumping to the side, not pulling his weapon.

Thirdly, his situational awareness would have noted the direction of the tires, the demeanor of the driver, the lack of aggressive behavior, etc.

He did not fear for his life. It was not self defense. Had the driver been aiming for him, shooting the driver does not immediately stop the car. Shooting the driver would cause the car to accelerate which it did. He was a bully that wanted to punish anyone who disobeyed or disrespected him. He had already been injured before for making stupid decisions based on his lack of situational awareness. If anything it was more like PTSD and he should not have been in that situation in the first place.

It is attitudes like yours that creates the environments that allow these assholes to continue terrorizing people. Being an undocumented immigrant is not a reason to be shot. Being a mom who didn’t listen to a fascist is also not a reason to be shot.

With being said, please eat a bag of dicks.

This administration keeps pushing and pushing hoping to foment a rebellion so they can play the strong man and start randomly shooting people. Well I mean randomly shoot MORE people since they’ve apparently already started.

When you wake up in a pool of blood because your girl accidentally ran her toes down your leg in the middle of the night.

I put this in the same category as women who grow nails so long they can barely wipe their own ass.

Yeah I have seriously considered that. Especially since the vehicle I currently have gets about 17mpg… oof.

I would love this as a commute car (if it was available in the US). I do have to drive about 80km round trip but it’s only 2-3 times per week so it would be fine. The only caveat would be top speed which would be fine if it’s in the 100 kph range.

No… McDonald’s is making you look heavy.

Oh right … my bad.
