  • Would you support a mandatory retirement age of 75 for US House, US Senate & US Supreme Court Justices and if not why?

    Jump

  • Not at all. Not all old people are idiots and not all young people are geniuses. Get rid of the minimum age requirement for prez too.

    There should also be no "terms" and "term limits". You're voted in. If at any point you face a vote of no confidence, there's an election. That might be 30 days in, it might be 15 years later. Sometimes it takes long periods of time to fix issues. And with a 4 year cycle where 3.99 of it is campaigning, nothing can get done.

    The US is broken.

  • New Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC

    Jump

  • It used to be that all versions of windows were fine. Then Home was a mess and you needed Pro or above to stop being nannied. Now you'll need Enterprise to not be nannied and spied on. The cost is completely worth it.

    I do NOT blindly hate windows. It runs software today that existed 30 years ago. I haven't had a real blue screen since my Win98 machine that was upgraded to XP. It just works, it works well, and gives my company life. Linux is a mess comparatively unless you want to tinker. And yes I also daily drive nix machines, and only fan bois don't see how hassle free windows can be comparatively.

    The big words are can be. Because out of the box, they're making it worse and worse. I don't have a Microsoft account, local only. And boy do they not like that. Enterprise doesn't force updates at all, I can keep my machine up and running indefinitely like the old days. The only issue I have today with Win11 is the forced task tray "overflow" menu that nobody asked for and nobody wants. Currently no way to disable without hacks, and if it isn't fixed soon then I'll do that.

    But this screen shotting malware cannot happen. I know there are many places where it legally cannot happen. Therefore there will have to be a way to disable it or install a version without it. And that's what I'll be getting.

    If Microsoft sold a Windows 11 Platinum Edition 3000 for $2000 that just gave you all the knobs like XP and let you shoot yourself, I'd buy it. Totally worth it.

  • U.S. governors urge Turks and Caicos to release Americans as Florida woman becomes 5th tourist arrested for ammo in luggage

    Jump

  • You know one of the reasons why Cuban tourism was then wasn't then now is so popular? Because Muricans can't go there. Seriously. People would flock from all over North America, except Murica, to Cuba and get to enjoy a civil holiday devoid of a bunch of angry yelling tourists demanding they do thing a certain correct way.

    Countries like this in the world today in 2024, will be just fine. American tourism is declining to the point of irrelevance for everybody but the 1% Americans. The Chinese have the crown but COVID paused their global ambitions. There are many tourists that try to go out of their way to avoid American hotspots when on holiday for good reason.

  • I love this. This is my current favourite part of the timeline where Americans are treated with the same hypocrisy they demand of everyone else globally. Then whine and complain as always, and the other government just doesn't care. Stay strong Turks and Caicos, makes me want to buy one of your citizenships so much more.

  • Afghanistan: Three Spanish tourists killed in shootout

    Jump

  • Why? Just a few hours ago 3 people were shot at a supermarket in the USA. There is much more gun violence (Edited from "fun violence! Lol), and RANDOM gun violence in the US than in Afghanistan today.

    If you think 3 gun deaths is too many and should ban tourism, I agree! Prevent people from vacationing in the US until it's at least as safe as Afghanistan

  • Pro-Palestine demonstrators in Portugal assaulted by Israeli tourists

    Jump

  • The majority of Jews and Israeli people are of European Caucuses descent today. Very few are descendents of the Semites. Ironically, the majority of Palestinians are closer descendents of the Semites than the current global Jewish population... Hmm...

  • New York City said 'no injuries' at Columbia arrests; students' medical records say otherwise

    Omg, who could have ever knew this was happening... /s

  • ‘He never pulled the gun up’: Neighbors release video of man shot and killed by Anchorage Police

    Jump

  • There should be no other acceptable response for terrorists storming your property at 2am. Defending the use of such tactics makes you scum.

    If only 1 non police party has a gun, they aren't going to use it to shoot a popo that doesn't have a gun. Escalation causes incidents.

  • State Department issues travel alert for LGBTQ people, events abroad

    Jump

  • Peace and being at peace or "not in danger" don't correlate at all to you? Must be an American when that stupidity.

    USA is a shithole, enjoy. Don't be shot

    Peace.

  • They should be locked up, maximum sentence. American idiotic laws don't apply, they are just like everyone else. Criminals that broke the law and smuggled ammo in. Ignorance is not an excuse of the law, American justice system loves that phrase.

  • State Department issues travel alert for LGBTQ people, events abroad

    Jump

  • You're too entrenched in the stink to even know.

    The US ranks 129th in the GPI out of 163. That's pretty awful. And when you actually live outside the US, you realize just how awful it is.

    Just because most Americans are too brainwashed to notice it is not normal to be in perpetual fear, to have guns around you everywhere, to treat everyone like a threat, to have a constant surveillance of your property because of theft and vandalism, etc. These are not normal things in the world. These are American normals because the US is a shithole country.

    I spend most of my time in a country where I don't lock my front door. I leave my wallet, phone, laptop, etc just out and about and walk away for hours sometimes to have fun in a park, beach, or just walk around the city. Nobody touches it. My car keys are on my windshield, just like everybody else. Comes in handy when the fuel delivery and car detail service comes around. That is what can be. The US is nothing like it, and won't ever be.

  • You are in FAR more danger inside the USA than almost anywhere else. Projection to idiots.

  • Automatic Fire Extinguisher for 3D Printer Cabinet

    Jump

  • I have the spheres. I of course, for science...., tested one over a small garbage can fire I set purposefully. It worked way better than I thought it would. I have one in my server racks, multiple ones over my mining equipment, and did have one over my older 3d printer. The miners are the only thing I think would ever actually catch fire.

  • Aid for Gaza will soon flow from pier project just finished by US military, Pentagon says

    Jump

  • Anybody who believes this is the answer is incredibly stupid.

    The region has land borders. There are aid trucks at the land borders. The Genociders refuse to let the trucks in. The same people that won't let the aid very far off the pier. The same people that just crossed the US's "non red line red line" about destroying the last remaining city

  • LGBTQ+ Pride Month events could be targets of foreign terrorists, security officials warn

  • And 1/17th Irish. Always part Irish.

  • Nearly 1 in 5 US abortions now provided through telehealth, with thousands accessed under shield laws each month, report says

    Jump

  • Yes with the additional caveat of when a country picks and chooses when to enforce laws and against whom, the laws are made up. If abortion is illegal, then it's illegal. Just like choosing to prosecute petty crimes mostly for minorities and ignoring them for others. Choosing to prosecute white collar crimes when there's a media outrage, but otherwise just paying a civil fine and forgetting about it. This means there isn't a justice system, it's rigged.

    Many who vote to take rights away from people, are in a protected class of some kind where they believe it won't affect them. It will only affect people they don't care about, so who cares? Make them care.

    Send all the daughters of suburban white women who are getting mail order abortion drugs illegally, to prison. Right to jail.

  • US suggests possibility of penalties if production of Chinese electric vehicles moves to Mexico

    Jump

  • You're never going to win an argument with an American who gets their news bites and doesn't think. Genocide in China sounds bad so it's pushed on the news. Forcing economic slavery upon your own people in the USA? Free market baby. Oh but when that free market tries to do good things like cheap electric cars, then we need protection.

    When the US wants an iPhone, or television, or paint for their walls, Genocide is OK.
