Opera is chromium based

That response makes literally no fucking sense. What am I, specifically, supposed to do about this? Call Biden up on his private line that I somehow have and be like "Hey bro this is some fucked up shit. Pretty please stop?"?

I am a private citizen with no money, no political power, no military power, and no real power to influence others. I do what I can, educating myself on these matters and in turn trying to educate those close to me as well. Sorry that I only have the ear of some friends and family and not fucking Congress or the goddamn President, sue me I guess.

Unlike me, the US government is the most powerful entity on the entire planet in ALL of those regards. It has absolutely no good excuse for continuing to support Israel's genocide.

Well, that's easy to guess.

If it's a right winger shooting up the Dems, it'll be "A real tragedy, but could've been prevented if congress members were permitted to carry guns in the capital. The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun".

If it were a left winger shooting up the Republicunts, it'd be Mulford Act 2, Electric Boogaloo.

an English speaking country

The United States has no official language. Even in Arizona where English IS the official language, there are written exceptions in the law for law enforcement and emergency services.

who illegally trespassed

Why would they do that? They're surely not stupid, they know how the US feels about them, they know how dangerous it is, and yet they do it anyways. Why? Because despite all of that, the situation they're trying to leave is even worse, and worth the risk. Why don't they just immigrate legally? Well, ignoring the fact that the requirements to even be considered are unobtainable for most people in the countries they're fleeing from, even when you DO get on the wait list it can literally be over a decade before you're actually approved for a green card. It's no wonder people take the quick, risky, and illegal option when they need to get the fuck out of dodge NOW, rather than hoping the bureaucratic process happens before it's too late.

and don't contribute towards funding the service they called.

Undocumented immigrants pay billions in taxes every single year. Over $10 billion, in fact.

...and we're the bad guy here?

Yes, we're absolutely the bad guy here.

The US doesn't need solid roots in the middle east, it is literally an entire ocean away, has the top 4 air forces in world(well, officially Russia is #3, but that probably is no longer the case and definitely won't be by time the Ukraine invasion ends), the 2nd best/possibly the best Navy in the world, the 2nd largest stockpile of Nukes(and likely the largest stockpile of actually functional ones), not to mention a missile defense system that probably puts even the Iron Dome to shame(after all, the I.D was primarily funded by the US).

Literally the only physical foreign threat the US needs to truly worry about is small scale terrorist-attack style operations, and all out MAD nuclear war. Literally no foreign country is touching us in a traditional war.

No, the only reason the US needs solid roots in the middle east is so it can advance it's imperialist interventionist goals. You're absolutely right, Israel is the US's ally. Where you are wrong though is believing we should support them, rather than ending our alliance with them.

Put it this way: An alliance between two countries is basically like a friendship between two people. If you found out your friend, your best friend even, was a remorseless serial killer, how would you react? Would you rightly dump them as a friend and hope they rot in prison, or would you be like "sure, I realize they killed all those innocent people, but they're my friend! I HAVE to support them no matter what! Besides, they totally killed some bad people too, so it's justified."?

The answer is to put cheese in the crust. If fucking Papa Johns can do it, Domihoes can.

Where tho? Everyone is clearly taking the piss out of the meme and pretending to agree with it. Nobody is actually out there tipping their landlord(well, I sure fucking hope not at least...).

If it takes longer than 10 minutes to cook, it's not lazy. Spending 2 minutes chopping an onion means you only have 8 minutes left to actually cook the onion, plus everything else you're cooking up.

Well tell Merne to turn around.

Real

By definition, no, but most people probably assume negativity when they hear the word rant.

Yes. Auto is essentially the "720p or less but we're gonna lie and say it's 1080p still" option now. I'm constantly having to manually choose my resolution to get the full bitrate.

Elon took Twitter private, there aren't any shareholders to answer to anymore.

As for reddit, they've been trying to go public for awhile now but afaik they have not succeeded yet, so also no shareholders.

Squirt, the soda.

It's been 10 hours OP, we demand you pay the duck tax. 6-7 mo Judy would be an acceptable compromise.

Bullshit it doesn't happen in the west. 12.8% of US households were considered food insecure in 2022, with 5.1% of that being considered to have VERY low food security(Source). Over 20,000 Americans died of malnutrition in 2022, more than double the number in 2018(Source).

There's also nearly 30 vacant homes for every 1 homeless person in the US, so there's plenty of room, too. Nobody needs a 2nd home when over half a million people don't even have one.

This is already the case. Even the fastest blu-ray is like 40x slower than the internal SSDs on the PS5 and the XSeX/XSeS, and the largest capacity is only 100GB which isn't even a single Call of Duty.

But it makes unpacking them quicker, which is what you originally seemed to be making fun of in regards to fitgirl repacks.

Ew, no.
