  • "It's about history"

  • It is 50% about states rights and 50% about the government not enforcing the then constitution.

    It's just convenient that both those were directly related to slavery. Definitely not the reason for succession 😂 It's been taught in the South for years this way.

    Just in case you don't know the SC articles of recession specifically mention the personal liberty laws passed by northern states.

    The States of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa, have enacted laws which either nullify the Acts of Congress or render useless any attempt to execute them. In many of these States the fugitive is discharged from service or labor claimed, and in none of them has the State Government complied with the stipulation made in the Constitution>

    They are specifically referring to the fugitive slave act of 1793 and 1850 and the government not enforcing the states to abide by the Constitution.

    We affirm that these ends for which this Government was instituted have been defeated, and the Government itself has been made destructive of them by the action of the non-slaveholding States. Those States have assume the right of deciding upon the propriety of our domestic institutions; and have denied the rights of property established in fifteen of the States and recognized by the Constitution;>

  • A conundrum

  • You realize the headquarters of Walmart are in Arkansas? There are plenty of very high paying jobs in significantly more affordable places. Also if you pay 1/4 less for a house, and add daily childcare it's still gonna be cheaper. People literally do it all the time, the whole concept of the suburbs was created so that people could afford houses.

  • Your statement is incorrect. The Danish straits are considered international waterways and the gulf of Finland has a central strip of international waters (even though the Helsinki–Tallinn Tunnel never got started). So if you are trying to get technical, you should know your shit first. You cannot get to any of Scandinavia without crossing international space via train.

    This whole mess can just be over if you just agree that the statement is wild. You're pulling at straws to defend an argument that doesn't make any sense.

  • You want to include Scandinavia, well if I include Alaska it's ~5k miles from Miami to Anchorage. Point still stands its a wild comment to make.

  • This is a wild comment. ~3.8MM sq miles vs ~1.6MM

    Lisbon to Vilnius ~2375 miles longest route I could picture Portland ME to San Diego ~3200 miles Portland OR to Miami ~3250 miles NY to Chicago ~800 miles Hamburg to Vienna ~600 miles

  • Maybe this is an event of what happens if I don't know? I understand that this wouldn't be something you could cold turkey, but what I'm saying is what if I'm that scenario you start questioning "do I need to know?". When you're in a comfortable mind space, think about what you would have done ~15 years ago when there was no access to an unlimited amount of data?

    I'm definitely not a therapist so maybe this isn't helpful at all but worth a shot.

  • about that ticket we talked about yesterday

    Jump

  • I think a super important thing people forget is a good PMs ability to always know where the data is that's been received. Can't tell you the number of times there's been conversations "we're waiting on x from the client" and the PM being long it's right here in the standard location. How they remember everything I don't know.

  • Lol to people that believe this is left. This is central. You know there is a party to support these beliefs? It's called the libertarian party, Google it. You didn't have to vote for someone who doesn't represent you as a person regardless of what the Internet says!?

  • Gen Z are over having their work ethic questioned: ‘Most boomers don’t know what it’s like to work 40+ hours a week and still not be able to afford a house’

    Jump

  • Let's talk about suburbs. These generations left the city because they couldn't afford it. Now suddenly living 5 mins from work is expected but then the an entry level job can't afford it and it's a generational difference? Can you afford to buy a house within 45 mins to your work? Hell ya where I live but you don't have immediate access to all city amenities.

  • Zelenskyy: No world leader has the right to negotiate with Putin on behalf of Ukraine

  • Except that they can't, especially Europe. While EU has drastically reduced oil and gas from Russia it's still like 20%. I've heard Hungary and Austria don't have access to gas from other countries other than Russia. (If someone has a source that says otherwise I'd be open to it).

  • Maybe if everyone that posted threads like this voted 3rd party, maybe 3rd party would get enough votes for once to push a reelection and get on the radar? Instead of trying to get people to vote for 2 candidates that don't support their needs and/or wants.

    You do realize that the winning president has to win at least 50% of the electoral college vote in order to win. If no one president does then the top 3 candidates go to the house of representatives to be chosen. Just the media if this happened would finally put a third party on the radar, even if they only won one state.

  • This is not even a secret strategy. We were already using this strategy as like 8 year olds. Guaranteed win is a clown thing to say though. You could play a whole game and just land on properties other people have already bought.

  • I don't know if it's everywhere, but they got rid of the tortilla wraps and now you get a flat bread rolled up. I used to go all the time for wraps when I was traveling through small towns. At least at Subway you know what you're getting in a town of 500 people. Now that they got rid of the wraps, my business is done.

  • Firefox + Ublock = 👑

    Jump

  • There's was only a very brief period that I would have considered Chrome a better option and that was the period when Chrome had a mobile app and FF didn't. Other than that, I have never understood why you would use chrome. I know FF didn't invent tab browsing, but definitely the first to do it successfully.
