Have they considered implementing this technology in Mexican football stadiums?

The sea is unforgiving

That's not true, I peed in the sea once but we're friends again now

Bacteria are likely all dead but the toxins that bacteria produce may remain. This is why they can't treat Botulism with antibiotics as it is caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.

Reddit for local groups, LinkedIn every now and then, Mastodon but less recently, YouTube if that counts, but mainly Lemmy nowadays.

Wait, some people don't read the ToS agreements? I'm shocked!

I wonder what impact these kinds of government protections have on artificially inflating the property prices in BC

Is @son_named_bort@lemmy.world a son who is named bort? Or are they saying they have a son named Bort?

Xit that's funny!

Where are you getting that 500K killed number from? That's a lot higher than any legitimate sources

Yay! Poop challenges are back again!

I never assumed you didn't have exposure to conservatives and I didn't assume you wouldn't have encountered the example I provided. I'm not arguing from ignorance. If some part of my argument isn't clear please feel free to ask questions instead of making assumptions. I'm happy to continue the conversation and I'm sorry if I came across as dismissive.

I appreciate this discourse and your thoughtful responses. These kind disagreements are what we need more of. I still disagree that supporting trump necessarily means condoning racism as depending on what issues you prioritize, it may be a case of choosing the lesser of two evils.

The problem is, “racism is not important to me” is still a position with its own moral implications.

That's strawmanning my argument. I'm saying that just because someone prioritizes another issue over racism doesn't make them bigoted. And if they believe their priority issues are best addressed by the Republican party or won't be addressed by the Democrats, it would make sense for them to vote for trump.

The "all trump supporters are racists" argument comes from echo chambers and is dismissive of people's legitimate criticisms of the Democrats. It's not accurate or useful in creating meaningful discourse.

Try and be more open minded. The world isn't black and white and the issues that are important to you are not universally the priority for everyone. For instance, imagine if you were an immigrant from a country that was heavily drone attacked by the US. You might make your voting decisions based on the party that bombed your homeland less. The world will make more sense if you can invest time in understanding other people in stead of labelling them.

the tracked and statistically-validated rise in racist rhetoric in conservative spaces online, in conservative candidate platforms, in conservative legislators’ bills, etc etc etc.

While this may be true, it doesn't mean that trump supporters must be bigoted. Remember, America is a two party system. People are often forced to vote for who they disagree with less.

This is a huge over simplification of a complex problem. Sure some people are bigoted and support trump but it doesn't follow that all folks that support trump are bigoted. Wingers on the left and right use the same strategies of othering folks they disagree with. It's ignorant to assert that people only support trump because they're racists or people only support Harris because they're communist/woke.

Yes but with this sub the water was on the inside too

To be fair, they're under water and sharks have been known to chew through electrical cables

Why is US based one of your requirements?

It's not an ideal solution but you can save your Google takeouts to Dropbox. It might be worth signing up for Dropbox for one month and use Dropbox's sync features. I haven't used Dropbox in years but they used to have quite solid syncing.
