I mean, Kamala runs the senate. They really don't have any option to try the same scheme again. I do worry though, what new tricks they might try.

You can only achieve a fair and civil society through fairness and civility. That is what (most of) the democrats have been working on for the last 50 years.

It's always tempting to think that you could "defeat" evil through violence, repression, suppression, and exclusion. Instead, you only become it.

edit: I really don't mean to lecture here. I wrote this because I saw myself in the comment I replied to, and I needed to remind myself to be kind.

The disorder can only increase, just like your toys on the living room floor.

His disdain for NASA's caution is obvious.

What a dumbass. If we send people in the quickest possible way (or any way at all, really) and they all die in the attempt, that will set the whole project back decades.

The answer to the radiation problem is better shielding, not a fundamentally unsafe mission.

btw it is not the nuclear propulsion that I'm calling unsafe. It is the idea that we could do without redundancy. That's just a monumentally stupid idea.

It would be like calling FEMA 'democrat run' when talking about the latest hurricane recovery efforts. It is literally true, but it is not relevant. To add it would only serve an editorial purpose, not a factual one.

Your typo makes it sound like they're doing something terribly cute!

I truly hate that phones don't readily have file browsers and folders, and when you do add them, they aren't effective. Mostly that would be useful when moving files between phone and computer. It's not simple even to get the computer to mount the phone's drive, probably because everyone is fine with having all their files "in the cloud."

I could be mistaken on this: don't they get just one try?

Odd side fact here: newts are not lizards.

What the actual fuck do these nutjobs think the FEMA workers are doing? Looting? Registering non-citizens to vote? Eating the dogs? What?

I've never heard "as the crow flies" used that way. It is always used to talk about distance, not direction.

No, it won't

It will let you run Linux apps in Linux

Cancer (song video) - Jesse Welles

Exactly. In other words, they have not been "allowed to infest" the fediverse.

I have not noticed any threads content in Lemmy.

All the great song writers were mediocre singers. I'm talkin': John Prine, Steve Goodman, Townes Van Zandt, Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon, Neil Young, even Willie Nelson I would put in this category.

A weird exception is Joni Mitchell. IMHO one of the best singers of all time, and an a-list writer too.

This actually has six right angles if you include exterior ones.

When everyone tries to leave at once it's just about the worst driving scenario possible.

That gives me a notion. Maybe it's possible to get team owners on board supporting public transit, by pointing out that the reason people don't stay for the whole game is to avoid traffic.

Hah!

But really, anyone who continues along the same line of research for long enough is going to necessarily cite themselves rather than just listing all of the previous results in each paper.
