Melissa Chavin, a US immigration lawyer based in London, said Ms Burke could be released either through voluntary departure or expedited removal, but the process of appearing in front of a judge as part of voluntary departure could be delayed because several dozen of the approximately 700 immigration judges had resigned or been fired by the Trump administration.

This is pretty much is in line with what you say. Processing cases quickly to legally and humanely bring people through the immigration doesn't appear to be the goal from this administration's actions.

A little bit. If I offer too specific expert knowledge I could be doxxing myself, so I make a version that sounds like I just picked it out from the top search engine result, but works well enough as an answer.

"Why hasn't anyone designed a building like this before?"

"Oh."

I guess China is no stranger to the high inflation more risk-averse economic environment.

Took me a year and 150 applications and 10 interviews to find the job that I wanted. I wouldn't want to wish the stress of job seeking on anyone.

My uneducated guess is that banking corps getting "harmed" by the fact they can't suck money out of their borrowers will have to spend more effort putting each order through the courts.

At the very least, the more times that Biden's student loan forgiveness plan is blocked like this, it will get it into voters' heads that it's not the President and Democratic party's failure to act but co-ordinated obstruction by Republicans and the financial institutions.

 

Videogamedunkey is also a bit of a movie buff on top of being a video game critic and a funny guy.

He should be able to help us find the movie we want to watch on the healthy variety of streaming services that are available!

It's non-free, it's non-libre, but it does pass the bar of open source software. The OSI, EFF, RMS or whoever don't have to say it is in order for it to be true.

You can distribute it but there are limitations on it, you can make a fork of Grayjay that is free to use, review, re-distribute and add parts to it adhering to other open source licenses from whence they were developed as long as it's non-commercial, and doesn't make any representations on behalf of FUTO or Rossman, essentially.

I am very sorry you had to go through such a terrible experience.

It is my sincerest hope that you will be able to find a workable solution to this problem, from Lemmy or elsewhere.

I am (and have been) okay with admins taking any action necessary to accomplish the goals of the Beehaw project. So removing image hosting, implementing lemmy-safety, restricting federation severely, do whatever you need.

And please, also do whatever you need to care for yourself, including if it means needing to take a break from the site.

 

In a video by @Techconnectify@mas.to, Alec goes into a deep dive into the simplicity of his particular model, its shortcomings and variety of data logging tests in an attempt to fix them.

TL,DW: Very simple, cheap and ingenious design, with one compressor loop between the fridge and freezer in series. However, its temperature sensor is wonky and so the fridge is more affected by how long the compressor operates than the actual temperature itself. There is a signficant temperature differential between the top and bottom, fans on the exterior or interior could help but with the faulty sensor only made matters worse. With the controller replaced with a proper temp control unit the fridge functioned much better.

I think Lemmy should be it's own thing. Similar to Reddit but not a full-on replacement. I do think an aggregated feed of similar communities on a topic ought to be a feature, but I think, hell, if 80 different instances want to host a politics, funny, fediverse then let them do it!

The reason why I don't want there to be a "definitive" worldnews community is that only one group of mods/admins have all the say over what's allowed for that worldnews. The other "worldnews"es can fill the niche where one is missing, perhaps critique of certain regimes is discouraged on one but encouraged on another. Perhaps posts about identity politics is talked about on one but is completely banned on another. Perhaps another world news is dedicated to making jokes and memes about current events, while another strictly allows only serious and on-topic discussion.

Sure, a mechanism to allow all these worldnews communities to appear under one page would be good as a feature suggestion, but to make any rule about "one definitive" lemmy community on a topic defeats the purpose.

Seconded! I have used RedReader for several years and love the no-nonsense interface it has provided. Being able to use Lemmy with it would be a great experience for me.

[–] Rentlar@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

RedReader is going to be like this somewhat going forward. Other developers of the app need their own API key, but QuantumBadger's version, the Fdroid and Google Play version will keep the same API key.

You are doing great!

More memes, but in !memes@lemmy.ml please.
