  • Lawmakers compare the volume to past crises like the Oct. 7 attack, Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, and Trump’s impeachments.

    And those all turned out so well, too. /s

  • I am SO sick of this blame-shifting argument. Everyone who didn't show up to vote for the only "not Trump" candidate likely to win is 100% partially responsible for what we're dealing with now. Full stop. It's not the Dem's fault, it's not the system's fault, it's not anyone's fault except those who sat out or threw their vote away out of protest because they completely fail to even acknowledge the existence of a bigger picture.

    Hurr durr, fascism is bad, but the other side isn't perfect so I'm not voting against fascism to teach them a lesson.

    There were two items on the menu: "Status Quo (flawed but not fascism)" and "Speedrun to Fascism".

    The fact that there are still people defending their decision to sit out / vote third party is mind boggling. At least if some of those would own up and say "I fucked up" I might have a shred of respect for them.

  • More like "Invert selection" for all of the things they're currently targeting.

  • But I was told both sides are equally bad and that I should have stayed home or voted 3rd party /s

  • DOJ, there is corruption in the government, but it ain't coming from USAID. You might want to look upward in your org chart if you're worried about corruption.

  • Probably. They use "DEI" to mean anything they don't like.

  • What's the expression? "Every safety regulation is written in blood" ?

  • Good thing I'm not biased against Christians specifically. Fuck all religions equally - fair and balanced.

  • "The First Amendment clearly says "Congress shall make no law" and this is an executive order. Seems constitutional to us"

    Supreme Court (probably)

  • Wait, y'all announce when you leave? I just slip out like a ninja

  • No, please keep the "we told you so"s coming. There are still people in the back defending their abstention / 3rd party vote / blaming the 'dems. They need to understand they are at least partially responsible for this.

  • There was little beyond an idea inside the president’s head.

    Fixed that for them.

  • Just rolled out 1.4.30 which should fix this issue. The data snapshots are now keyed to the active profile ID when they were fetched.

  • If you need a printer now, I'd just make the best of it while saving for a good laser printer. The vertical alignment may be able to be fixed with a calibration (check the manual to see if there's a procedure). Not sure about the jams, but usually a good cleaning will fix that.

    Ink-jet printers are money pits. Laser printers are superior in just about every way. They cost a little more upfront, but the long-term costs are much, much less than any inkjet. If you only need black and white, you can get a decent laser printer for $100-150. I bought mine in 2014, use it infrequently, and am still on the toner that came with it. Paid $100 for it, and it's printed every time I've needed it for over a decade and going.

    If you need to print color (or photos), color lasers are a bit more expensive but not by much (maybe double the cost of a B&W one). Honestly, though, unless you print pictures all the time, it's cheaper and easier to just take them somewhere to be printed (or use an online service and have the prints mailed to you).

  • Agree, but one thing McConnell typically had, even as Minority Leader, was his people in line. I'm not sure the dems will ever be able to form a solid block as fragmented as we all are. Doesn't meant they shouldn't try though.

  • I'm not trying to change anyone's mind. Gave up on that months ago when it actually mattered. Now I just want the people who refused to help stop this from happening know how much I blame and hate them. That is all.
