I know the supreme Court is heavily biased at the moment, but what possible logic could they use to get out of the 22nd amendment saying "no person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice"? They can't just add words there, and it isn't ambiguous at all

You realize that a comments section can have more than 1 discussion going on in it, right? It's not a "distraction" to talk about something else or disagree with a part of someone's comment.

The point being discussed is that this is a terrible law and an example of Mississippi being a shit hole

This is not the comment I replied to. The comment I replied to was essentially saying that MS and therefore the US are not worth visiting, and I think that's silly.

"This is fine"

I didn't say this. I actually agree with you that the MS law is terrible, but trying to push back on the general sentiment of the original comment I replied to: saying the US is the "worst" because of something that Mississippi does.

You're actually arguing that the difference between being put to death and not is a "millimeter off the floor"? That is some privileged nonsense, frankly.

I agree that the US has problems, but hyperbolic doomerism is hardly conducive to changing any of that.

just go fuck yourself, how’s that?

This also seems incredibly dramatic

I'm not trying to say that the US is perfect, but do you honestly believe that the US is the "worst" place to be any of the things you listed?

There are plenty of places in the world you would be put to death for being gay. Try asking an immigrant from literally any of those countries if they prefer the US and get back to me.

the worst country

This seems a little dramatic

Edit: lol downvoted for mildly pushing back against the idea that the US is the worst of the ~200 other countries in the world. Never change, Lemmy.

If you use LLMs in your professional work, you're crazy

Eh, we use copilot at work and it can be pretty helpful. You should always check and understand any code you commit to any project, so if you just blindly paste flawed code (like with stack overflow,) that's kind of on you for not understanding what you're doing.

Honestly, that makes it funnier to me

His stake in his "media" company is (nonsensically) still worth billions of dollars right now. He probably won't be able to cash all of that out if he wanted to, but he is definitely not broke.

This post makes it seem like the Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn actually makes it harder to shoehorn, when the opposite is actually true!

I love my Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn!

So, knowing this, what can we conclude from these graphs? It looks like posts and comments are going up but active users are going down. Does this mean that the posters are posting more individually? Enough to offset the drop in active users?

It's mostly for things that don't warrant a post but your friends might still think are interesting. I'm big on live music so it makes it easy for me to see a snippets of shows people go to or even to figure out if friends happen to be at the same show, but that's just my personal example.

 

I always loved checking the crossword subreddit daily for the discussions, so it would be awesome to see more activity around it on Lemmy!
