  • They can't because we didn't give them any power.

    They clearly don't want to talk about shit that they can't do.

  • For those who aren't familiar, this is how you read this. Just add up the columns where there are lights.

     
            * 8 * 8 * 8
        * 4 4 4 4 4
        2 2 2 2 2 2
        1 1 1 1 1 1
    
    
      

    So the last panel doesn't have any 8s and is read like this. You add the columns.

     
            - 4 4 - - 4
        - - - 2 2 -
        1 1 - 1 - 1
    
    
      

    And adding those columns gives you:

     
            1 5 4 3 2 5

  • It's to make a nerdy thing more nerdy. But they really shouldn't have added seconds to a thing that takes more than a second to read.

  • I mean, they obfuscated it by adding seconds. It's really not that hard. Just takes a few seconds instead of a glance.

  • Like a wireless router?

  • USAid was pretty good. And our roads are pretty reasonable, mostly.

    Where federal taxes are spent was fairly reasonable until this year. Could, of course, always be better. Obviously too much went to the military and the MIC.

  • Fuck right off. He did absolutely nothing to stop the vehicle. The vehicle moved forward. He was unharmed.

    He was not in any danger.

  • They've often (in the 90s) voted against statehood because they're currently exempt from federal personal income tax. I guess my info is a bit dated. More recently they've (non-binding) voted about 56% for statehood.

    Benefits of statehood include an additional $10 billion per year in federal funds, the right to vote in presidential elections, higher Social Security and Medicare benefits, increased minimum wage, and a right for its government agencies and municipalities to file for bankruptcy.

  • I think Europe is a more valuable target for fascism than Greenland, and tilting the vote would help with that.

    Of course this is all kind of silly and a distraction anyway.

  • No, the ones voting against exactly that.

  • PR also doesn't want to pay federal taxes.

  • Uh, read better.

  • Bronners

  • Can your neighborhood communicate when the Internet goes down like Iran?

  • This comment chain is the evidence of the opposite. Outsiders act like the country was equally fucked in 2023 and 2025. The tankies think we've always been equivalent to or worse than Russia and China. There are a number of people who just "don't pay attention to politics", which caused our current situation.

  • She was ordered to leave and she was leaving.

  • I don't think it is in this case. The one who kicked over the memorial was federal.

    We sure as hell need some allies, and it'd be nice to have state and local authorities on our side.

  • Placebo can work even if you're aware it's a placebo.

  • To be a bit less flippant, the analogy isn't far off.

    Reading terminal instructions that you can easily copy/paste is a hell of a lot easier than watching a video and clicking around menus.

    The issues that you're having wouldn't be any easier if they showed in a GUI. Yeah, things with GUI can be more polished, but that's a result of the effort in that product, and not a result.of the GUI.

    I sympathize with what I believe is your main point, that Linux people often are condescending and refuse to make things user friendly, whether that's in a GUI or in the terminal. But the terminal itself shouldn't be too daunting.
