Did everybody get this as a maths problem nearly every year in primary school, and again in high school when triangle numbers were brought up?

In response to another post about Project 2025

So the working class had to be specifically told

  • the democrats support unions
  • the democrats support breaking up monopolies
  • the cost of living is a complex issue with multiple causes that will take a very careful and calculated collection of regulations regarding home ownership, rent, taxes, and it's not going to work for everyone, and it's not going to happen overnight
  • supporting and expanding social welfare programs helps everyone

What are they expecting? The Republicans will be able to write a law saying Netflix will be cheaper and have no ads?

In 2006, a movie was released in which an evil AI is defeated by Shia LeBouf.

The evil AI's plan? Kill the president!

Why does the AI want to kill the president? he has too much unchecked power and bombed village of innocent people in the middle east and the AI told him not to because it could not confirm if there was actually a terrorist there.

How does Shia LeBouf defeat the evil AI? Opening fire at the capitol to cause a panic.

The war in Iraq was ramping up at the time, how was there not rioting at screenings? How is this not a controversial movie?

The acting is not great, but it deserves better than 27% on Rotten Tomatoes when the message of the film is the government does bad stuff and should be persecuted for it

  • Additional protections to police
  • The pardon of all January 6th rioters
  • The relaxation of maximum presidential terms
  • Repeal of Affordable Care Act
  • Repeal of Social Security
  • Increase in taxes of lowest and middle incomes
  • Reduction in the minimum wage
  • Shutdown of major news outlets of "reporting lies"
  • Ban of reporting "bad news"
  • New ability to farmers to hire for no wage
  • New protections to reject hiring/customers/schooling based on colour

Wow, it's almost like a business can choose which methods of payment they accept. Outrageous.

The rest of Lemmy has had a meeting and decided that you no longer need to save the world. It was wrong of us to put that burden on you. Stop, rest save yourself first. We would love for you to volunteer to help when you are better.

Your garden looks wonderful 😊

Now you're not going to believe this, ladies and gentlemen, there was a time - not too longer ago in fact - where people called these metacrawlers, and they were beloved. People would say "Dogpile" yes, that might help, because - bare with me again - search was shit. But, comparing lot of different shit sources would generally give you ok information, and generally reveal at least a lot of different sources which could help find and gather information.

Now I'm not calling Kagi reputable in anyway, but if metacrawling helped with the situation before, maybe we should try it again.

Sounds like someone got called out on the bus for making a woman feel uncomfortable and is still coming to terms that no one on the bus jumped to his defence
