  • Paste a spreadsheet table and convert it to a markdown table

  • Paste Special>>Values ... its not that hard to get static values from the Clipboard, and if you're copying between different spreadsheet programs or even into existing nested tables, the Values, not the formulas or linked data pointers, are already generally what you're going to get.

    The proper response to someone showing you the solution to a problem is rarely, if ever, "yes but, without trying it, here's why I think it shouldn't work unless you first re-invent the wheel".

    Walking it back at the end where you pretend OP wanted to take away the existing functionality was a nice touch. You so-obviously deserve the four up-votes your comment got for that alone.

  • You nailed it with "it cannot make plausible promises" though. So where's the part that an entity that cannot make plausible promises should somehow be liable for hypothetical un-realized profits?

  • Difference is, we knew Saddam had massive amounts of nerve gas he had used on the Kurds because we gave it to him...

    ... insert gibberish here about how we used to at least pretend we would "help" "re-build" the countries we bombed as distractions and pass-times ...

  • Words I have to resist typing every time I'm called-upon to defend a one-off comment I'm un-pleasently-surprised I can remember making, but all-too-often, not the why.

    I really should charge more for attempting to channel me-from-twelve-hours-ago. Oh, and polishing that ass-hole's non-sense into something I'll be even more confused-about tomorrow. I want to say "Stop asking me to iterate, it only gets worse", but then I see the gibberish posing as a counter-point and realize, yes, we can make eachother worse.

  • Ex-pats paid-up on their taxes are entitled to all of the protections any other citizen is entitled-to, else what are they paying those taxes for?

    Your argument falls doubly-flat when the US isn't even bothering to assist the tourists, so I'm not getting where you feel this thread is the place to remind everyone that you believe expats to be the scum-of-the-earth because ...

    ... because what? They realized US Citizenship is worth more than US residence? Or rather, it was, until now. Oh, and this state of things is magically their fault too.

    Must be why Republicans are pushing so hard to disenfranchise them, and even/espescially their children, because when one thinks scum-of-the-earth, we can't neglect to despise those born in foreign lands without the good sense to return to the land of their parents birth. Hard pass, miss me with that non-sense.

    You seem confused in thinking I see "ex-pat" as a desirable, enviable, or admirable status. On the contrary, while I don't believe one should have to give up citizenship in one country to live in another, I don't see for a second why money earned in one country should be taxed anywhere else - taxes should be paid to the country where that money is earned.

    Even said country charging ex-pats more than its own citizens would make more sense, but every penny in taxes paid to the US from Ex-pats is money that would otherwise go to their local economy - arguably money being extracted from it. Nothing more or less than a tool of Empire.

  • Uncle Sam's not going to care about that if they have to make money where they are to find their way home. "We won't turn our overseas tourists into stranded expats who owe us taxes for the privilege of affording to come home" is the implicit promise being broken.

    Expats are supposed to be able rely on the US government to help them get home in a pinch as-well, else they might as well ALL renounce their citizenship.

    EDIT: highlighted, not added, the words "turn" and "into", for those convinced any and all American tourists left to their own devices can make it home before January without a dime more than they've brought with them, from countries whose transportation and monetary infrastructure are and are going-to-be subject to repeated and un-predictable disruption for the forseeable future, to say nothing of the availability and affordability of room and board.

  • Cool. Stop trying to tax their foreign income then. Helping your citizens escape a warzone you created is near bare-minimum standard for "country" status, let-alone "first-world superpower".

    ... actually, !newcommunities@lemmy.world should probably mandate post-approval and only approve New Community posts for those that set a proper title and description.

  • How are you still even bothering to reply? I figured would end-up blocking you before you would shut-up, but this is just sad. I'm not flexing for your skinny or obese ass, whatever the case may be, but in-person, I'm certain you would have run-away or been carried off on a stretcher by now, and probably taken-down by a by-stander before I had to take your threats seriously or bother hitting back, at that.
