When emotions are high, logic is low.

Oh 100% this is why. It always comes down to money and power. This bill threatened both, especially #4.

1. “The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation.”
2. “The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation.”
3. “The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living.”
4. “The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home and abroad.”
5. “The right of every family to a decent home.”
6. “The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health.”
7. “The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accidents, and unemployment.”
8. “The right to a good education.”

I mean, CO has mandatory PTO … no vacation moniker required. It’s also pathetic at 48 hours. Shameful.

The crazy thing is, for me as a user that has beta tested in the past, I’m at like 10/20. 50% of the time I get a response … no idea why I’m clearly higher than anyone else I’ve read/heard complaining about it. I don’t write verbose, I give them just enough info, logs every time … no idea why it works.

I mean this happens all the time in other industries, trades, cars, healthcare even. The right response is to up the price to account for stupidity so you can afford to warranty them. That’s literally what everyone else does. My product’s warranty cost is baked into the original price because I’m running a for profit business, not a charity.

This is the best explanation of aliasing I’ve seen. Well done.

Ostrich. Easily the best game meat. It’s incredible.

Such a great slow burn album. Absolutely builds.

Donald Trumps America is right. This isn’t my America.

2021 from a small local home builder. Much better quality (even for a COVID build) than the Oakwood garbage that’s in the rest of the neighborhood and much better insulated than an older home.

Oh … this isn’t dadjokes

I’m in the trades, we’ve only increased hiring.

That last sentence, "And I’m fighting for the very working people that he ran a campaign to empower that he has since then betrayed,” is very true.

The conservative people I work with DO NOT like what Trump is doing right now. Hope it hits fever pitch where they actually start doing something about it and send a very clear message. Trump won’t listen because he’s too much up a psychopathic narcissist but it may change the people around him to stop empowering him.

So, if both American and Dutch parents value independence, why do Dutch kids seem so much happier? I wonder if the key difference lies in how both sets of parents understand what freedom for kids looks like.

“Dutch parenting is all about raising self-sufficient kids,” Tracy told me. “My older two (ages 12 and 14) bike more than 10 kilometers (6 miles) daily to school since there are no school buses.

“If a teacher cancels a class, students just have free time instead of a substitute. My 14-year-old had two canceled classes this morning and simply stayed home until noon. This would be a logistical nightmare for schools and parents if we didn’t just expect our kids to sort it out.”

Dutch parenting, according to the close to a dozen parents in the Netherlands I spoke with, emphasizes allowing children a freedom of movement that many American kids don’t have. When I was in Haarlem and Amsterdam, bikes and little kids on bikes were everywhere.

Good article. We moved to an open concept neighborhood (low open fences, not “privacy” style) and the kids have a lot of movement around the neighborhood since it’s safe, and it has a lot of trails, wide sidewalks, and bike lanes. Yes, it’s more affluent. They’ve definitely been a lot happier than our last house where privacy fences were everywhere. They made friends a lot faster and seem to know everyone.

I was thinking the same thing. It really does describe it well.

This is exactly what came to mind when I read the question. Unbelievably cinematic moment. Still one of my favorite strategy games.

I’m definitely not seeing that on the instances I’m following. Ex. Calls for murdering the rich are not okay regardless of how someone feels.

I think Lemmy just don’t tolerate that view point. I see plenty of hard leftism being tolerated by mods when they shouldn’t. But hey, none of them are my instance. It’s grossly lopsided.

Any talk of religion in a non-negative way and the pitchforks come out.
