That's very nieve. You can believe in a woman's absolute right to choose while also acknowledging that sometimes people do heinous things.

When you say "abortion is moral," do you mean that it is never immoral? As in, you literally can't think of a situation where it would be wrong for a woman to get an abortion?

What about the last part: "viewing disagreement as moral monstrosity?"

Same girl?

Maybe something is loose, like the tube that the filament travels through? It definitely seems to be clicking during retractions, but if the print quality isn't affected then it's probably not the stepper motor or extruder.

Look at what happened to the stock on Feb 11, it dropped, came back up for a few days, then dropped again. That could be repeating.

Personally, if I had something like that, that wasn't causing me problems and wasn't linked to future problems, I wouldn't want to know. Especially because of how unknown it is. It sounds like there's no way that information could be of use to anyone other than a researcher, so it actually seems right that you can't share it.

On the other hand, I'm glad your other friend got their sinus checked out.

I'm curious, what exactly are you worried about with your friend? Are the abnormalities you saw linked to a treatable disease?

I'm not a lawyer, but I know they can put enough leins on a property to take possession of it. I'm pretty sure police will also forcefully remove someone who's violating civil trespassing laws, but again, not a lawyer.

Local ordinances can also make things like camping on private property illegal. That would be at the city level, but really an HOA is just another form of local government so I'd argue that counts too.

Yeah, racism is considered normal in many parts of the world and you wouldn't have a progressive spouse/partner, they'd both be racist.

Local ordinances and HOA CC&Rs can make it illegal to live on your own land unless you meet certain requirements, like having a specific type of permanent building (eg. no manufactured homes).

Wifi chips have their own firmware that could have a backdoor. If it's connected to the CPU over PCI-E or another interface that supports DMA then it's also able to inject code into the main system even if it's running FOSS firmware.

IMO some people take this too literally. Just because you want to be treated a certain way doesn't mean other people want to be treated that way.

"My defense?" "The bad guys?" You're being very adversarial, and I'm not sure why you keep trying to make me your enemy. Posting on Lemmy isn't good for anything except venting, and if you want to be a keyboard warrior you should find a community where conservatives gather. You still won't be doing anything productive, but at least Lemmy will be a little more peaceful.

You're making a strawman argument. I never said social security couldn't (or shouldn't) be saved. Nor did I argue that the Republicans aren't at fault for its problems. Obviously raising taxes to increase the amount of money going in to social security would fix the budget issues.

Your posts give a real "old man yelling at clouds" vibe

I'm not disagreeing, just saying China isn't the only country with worse working conditions than the US. From a global perspective things are actually pretty good in the US.

It's basic economics, if our population declines (either because people have less babies or immigration declines; both of which are currently happening) there will be less money going in to social security. While that's happening, the number of retirees is greatly increasing.

In terms of your internet service analogy, this is like losing your job at the same time your internet rates get raised. You can't pay your bills if you don't have any money.

It can run out if the amount if money being distributed exceeds the amount of money being collected. Such as when there are a large number of retirees (the "baby boomer" generation is much larger then the one preceeding it) or fewer workers (eg. if immigration slows or birthrates drop).

...and most other countries that aren't in Europe.
