Meh. He’ll use it as another distraction every month or whatever frequency he wants. Just like the Republicans would only approve stopgap budgets, so they can turn up the drama and claim some negotiating victories every time to just keep the lights on. It’s all theater.

Wrench@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Trump says Palestinians have ‘no alternative’ but to leave GazaEnglish7224·5 months agoRofl. Biden/Harris trying everything they could to circumvent the blockade to get supplies into Gaza. Trump literally saying he wants to expel the remaining Palestinians and take their land for himself.
You will never admit you were wrong. You will go to your deathbed self assured with yourself that you never compromised on your ideals no matter what actually happens to Gazian Palestinians.
If it wasn’t abundantly obvious to the rest of ya’ll before, these soapbox “never genocide” bad actors never gave a single shit about what happens Palestinians.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices32·5 months agoWhat the fuck do you expect them to do with a minority at every level? All they can do is try to get the message out.
Trump has repeatedly made empty campaign promises, yet voters take the bait every fucking time.
Pointing this out in real time is an important step.
Eh. The Gen Xers I know all admit they’d be fucked in today’s housing market if they didn’t already have theirs. The are generally very sympathetic and appreciate how lucky they are.
To modify this comic, they sit down for a show and are quickly horrified at the brutality of the spectacle.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•LG and Samsung are adding Microsoft’s Copilot AI assistant to their TVsEnglish27·6 months agoFormer smart TV app developer. I’m going to drive my old dumb lcd TV into the ground before I’m forced to use a “smart” TV.
I prefer casting, but for convenience for my wife, we have a fire tv stick.
I want my panels rendering, not thinking / reporting.
Stop. My penis can only get so erect.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Uber Eats undercover: Delivering your food for $1.74 an hourEnglish1·6 months agoBest to just call it in. Even for pick up, all these online providers take a huge cut, eating the profit margin from the people actually making the food you like.
I try to only use online orders for restaurants that have their own website cart. I do sometimes resort to the big ones when I’m busy / lazy, but I make a point to try to make sure the actual restaurant gets my money, because I want them to survive and keep making me tasty food.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•California to require insurers to offer policies in fire-prone areas2·6 months agoThey do. A friend in a fire prone area is unable to get fire coverage through his former provider. He was trying to find an alternative last time we spoke, but the estimate from the state was $500/mo. Just for fire insurance.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Tesla replaced laid off US workers with foreign workers using H-1B visas that Musk want to increase7·6 months agoAt my first job it if college, we had one QA guy at a small company. He did everything. He worked 12+ hours a day and weekends to support a team of ~8 devs iirc.
He was an H-1B. He didn’t have a choice but to work his butt off and do anything they asked.
At one point while I was there, they honored him at some company party, thanking him for his hard work over the last 2 years. The gift was a $100 restaurant gift card.
And management had the nerve to be “shocked” when he quit immediately after getting his green card.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione pleads not guilty to murdering healthcare CEO26·7 months agoEh. He could have intended to use it again, or didn’t find an opportune time to ditch/destroy it. Or maybe he’s not the master People’s assassin that everyone wants him to be.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione pleads not guilty to murdering healthcare CEO515·7 months agoRofl. OK. So forensics is fake science now, too? Because it could implicate someone you’d rather see go free?
How is this kind of mental gymnastics any different than the covid deniers.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione pleads not guilty to murdering healthcare CEO98·7 months agoThe whole gun planting take seems like conspiratory nonsense to me. And I’ll trust the forensic science on the striations.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione pleads not guilty to murdering healthcare CEO121·7 months agoDidn’t he have the burner gun still on him? Honestly asking, I know a lot of disinformation tends to go out early, and I haven’t followed up on verified facts.
Remind me again how Dems are really anti-worker?
We have the Biden administration consistently fighting the pardon student debt, fighting for unions (despite the frequent misrepresentation of facts trying to frame them as union busting), etc.
Then you have Republicans dragging student relief efforts through appeals, repeatedly putting government payroll at risk for shits and giggles, etc.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump FCC chair wants to revoke broadcast licenses—the 1st Amendment might stop him1·7 months agoHahah yep. But it’d be a nice precedent to twist this upcoming president in knots.
Wrench@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump FCC chair wants to revoke broadcast licenses—the 1st Amendment might stop him4·7 months agoIt won’t. He owns the SCOTUS. They will twist
presidentprecedent in knots to justify whatever they want.

Wrench@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Rep. Nancy Mace threatens media for reporting on handshake she says was assault17·7 months agoGreat fucking job, worst Carolina.
Maybe being transparent about their manufacturing defects would have been a good start.
Ohh, all of our users are getting frequent BSODs? SMOKE BOMB!
Congrats Never Genocide people posing as Progressives. We fucking warned you that exactly this was going to happen. Trump and his cult would side with Russia and throw Ukraine under the bus.
Great fucking job.
And great fucking job, Mods, for protecting those fucks in the name of civility.
We are the baddies now. And we got here because you’d rather protect Nazis from being punched in the mouth for their words and actions in the name of civility.
