Wasn't Trump the peaceful dove?

And especially since they were on high alert that someone was impersonating a cop... How do you not find that suspicious?!

Found it. Looks like SkyNews was reporting it.

MSM has talked about Israel's nukes. Can't remember which channel it was, but yesterday they were doing a comparison between Israel's and Iran's offense & defense capabilities.

Let me know what all the peaceful protests on climate change did leading up to and since the Paris Agreement.

Civil disobedience, including violent action, absolutely has a place in changing the policy of the state.

unilateral

How do we know it wasn't bilateral?

Welcome to every towel in a hotel

So I've looked into these towel dispensers when I was learning about TENCEL and the company that makes it: Lenzing.

Companies in Europe can take the dirty towels from these dispensers, bring them back to their warehouses where they have massive drums for laundering, as restock hotels and businesses as needed. It's a pretty solid form of circularity.

Then, when those towels reach their End of Life (EOL), Lenzing has agreements with these companies to accept the cotton towels for use in their production of TENCEL. The final fiber ends up being maybe 60-70% TENCEL (twisted cellulose) and 30-40% recycled cotton. Then that fiber is sold to make clothing, sheets, maybe even more towels (one could dream).

Paper it definitely cheaper in terms of raw goods and processing, but you can't control the waste stream. Sure, you can have garbage bins nearby, but people can toss whatever they want in there. Having a machine run through the towels means the user doesn't have to think of care about disposal: only use. Really it's a form of extended producer responsibility (EPR) which is the holy grail of recycling imo. Plus cotton feels better compared to paper imo

Edit: another commenter spoke to the hygiene and convenience of it all. I agree that humans suck and so relying on a machine to work is a big ask given how little maintenance lots of places do. Shaking your hands dry is probably the most sustainable since you aren't using any materials

RIF was so cleannnn. Sync for Lemmy has been just as good. Tried some of the early ones like Jerboa but none of them replicated the vibe

Me!! Cheers 🍸

It's not 49%. The split in 2024 was 1/3 R, 1/3 D, 1/3 didn't vote, and ~1% 3rd party.

As the other commenter said, it's a much fewer percentage of the population that sways those 1/3s either in the favor of R or D.

And you'd think Democrats would have chased after the 1/3 that sat at home instead of Rs, but we all know what actually happened

The protest voters amounted to some ~800k last time I did my research (check my profile for a post that goes over this).

RFK forgot to pull out of the general election, and he amassed some ~1 million votes.

Literally the Trump admin's own hubris cancelled out the Uncommitted Movement's efforts.

But sure: let's ignore Biden's deep hatred and racism for Palestinians while ignoring that emocrats lost more voters than what new voters became eligible between 2020 & 2024.

Let's also ignore Biden's awful, self-serving aim to run against Trump in 2024, when previously he had said he was a one-term candidate. And this old fuck couldn't back out of the race until he was cumpstered and dumpstered on the national stage, leaving Kamala only months to prepare a campaign. Let's not forget that there were people on voting day that didn't even know Kamala was running (they assumed Biden).

Let's also ignore Kamala's decent into fascism-lite, saying things like "the strongest military in the entire world" at the DNC, following along with right wing framing on immigration, and inviting Liz fucking Cheney on the campaign trail. This is also ignoring Kamala's horrendously tone deaf policies aimed towards business and home owners, when most people don't own businesses and don't own.

There is a generational divide in the country on Gaza. Young people under, say, 40 oppose everything this country has aided and abetted regarding Gaza. Older than 40, people don't give a shit.

So, have you just dated yourself? Are you too much of a bitch and coward to stick up for state mandated murder abroad? Or are you one of those soy libs that ignores all of America's war crimes yet points out everything wrong with China?

American foreign policy is uniparty. If you don't protest that, you're complicit.

Fluxion makes the distinction between Hamas and women/children. Surely women have contributed to the rebellion efforts. I'm not sure it's so black and white like that. I wanted to point that out since they seemed misogynistic about it.

Revolt absolutely means that. But a revolt is only a revolt if there exists an overwhelming oppression that makes people want to resist.

And that is absolutely the case, starting in 1946 when Jewish people started dominating Palestinians. There have been hundreds of October 7ths since then. 57,000+ Palestinians have perished to date since 2025/10/7 due to Israel's maximal racism and bloodlust.

Also, Palestine was not in peace. Hell, the West Bank of Israel wasn't in peace. The only peace was felt by one side, which undermines the entire idea. Peace means no oppression, no war for both sides. That has never been true for Palestinians while Israel has occupied their land.

I hope Germany, France, Brazil, Sweden, Turkey, Spain, the Netherlands, and Ireland starting fighting for the return of their hostages now that Israel has illegally kidnapped them. If not, what a fucking betrayal of the social contract, beyond how shredded and tattered that's become in the modern day and age.

Women can also revolt too, no?

you don't have CAD

I do, but I'm an design engineer not a designer so my CAD skills are just basic. And I have better things to do with my time than learn CAD beyond the things I do now just to do what this tool does. My firm has designers that are better equipped for that kind of work, so there isn't really a need.

pretty trivial function

How so?

you should know the procedure

And you should know how to suck me from behind.

As someone that's a design engineer for the solar industry, this might actually be a useful tool for me! Thanks for putting it together!

Luigi Mangione allegedly killed CEO????? Are we just dropping that now????

Any advice for a Steam Deck user that dual boots windows to access games I've paid for but otherwise can't play anymore on Steam Deck?
