NOTHING I said there was false or loaded.

Political parties are not supposed to permit other political parties to hold power

False. Citation needed

it’s still a Freudian slip.

A Freudian slip: is an error in speech, memory, or physical action that occurs due to the interference of an unconscious subdued wish or internal train of thought. Nothing I said satisfies that definition.

The democrats and republicans fund and push around the Green and Libretarian efforts to use them a vote division and shielding until they get manage to get safely where they need to be. Third parties are systematically oppressed by the current parties in power. Our laws and election procedures HAVE FACILITIES for independents to make it in, but they are blocked through finance, primaries and other methods

If not voting for one political party is an implicit vote for the “opposite” party then there is no party,

That’s a remarkably naive statement. Your whole line of argument is incredibly naive. If 500 people usually vote 250:250 and all of a sudden it’s 200:250, the other side won. How can you not understand that?

(Unless you think it’s possible to choose death which I don’t think is possible if I want to be consistent with my values).

WTH? I’m done with you, that’s insane.

Yes, you can reduce it much faster assuming one food doesn’t contaminate random other foods and it’s not a workplace hygiene thing.

You could also ask for a bowl, dressing on the side, take it home, try the tuna, 12h try the dressing, 12h try the veggies.

Repeatedly off tuna without smell would be kind of hard to replicate.

My bet is on the sauce (like they kept reflling the same contaminated container)

Repeatedly getting sick from a work surface or employee hygiene seems sketch. up to 50% of the times and i’d be on board, but every time….

no no no, it’s

𝑅𝑛=𝑅0(1−𝑓)𝑛

years off.

We keep getting closer, but by smaller increments.

I was so hoping helion was going to work. They were trying to recapture the pulse in magnetic confinement when fusion pulsed. Eliminating steam would be awesome.

It’s two-fold.

The overton window has shifted so far that we’re getting warmongering from the democrats.

‘Half’ of the congressional left are sleeper agents for the right.

The DNC keeps pushing right and refuses to do anything to keep us from sliding into authoritarianism. Appeasing the right, Siding with Israel.

But not voting left is the same as voting right, that IS how the right wins.

And voting left is just giving them a blank check to keep sliding that window further right.

Neither party is going to let a third party in.

Appeasing the left is making them worse.

The rub, people think if they keep not-voting or voting independent, the DNC will give in and start moving stuff left. They won’t. They don’t truly want to win.

It’s like fucking Brewsters millions out here, but “None of the Above” won’t fucking help either.

I think, mostly, we can agree that the agenda of the “left” is the lesser of two evils, but the evils are getting so bad that we need desperately to do something to move the window back left a little.

I’ve seen stock traders where everyone on the floor had half that many. A few of them had 9.

When they’re looking up trades or news, they open a ridiculous number of windows while doing research.

They have 4 screens just to watch the markets and handle in-house controls.

What’s striking about this is the amount of whitespace on the screens. They are only using 1/2 - 1/4 of their screen space.

Yeah, if they could keep you out of it, that would be different. Wonder what happens if you don’t have internet.

We’re not talking about calling a tow service to help you out. We’re talking about calling a tow service for improperly or illegally parked cars.

They operate under a completely different set of rules, where they’re very concerned about chargebacks.

The ones in my metro area only take cash, You’re not even allowed to get your wallet out of the car.

They also have ATM’s in their lobbies and they charge $6 to make a withdrawal.

I love it, but it’s all fun and games until someone makes a self driving towtruck.

ohh no no. When Police call a tow truck, the tow company comes, takes the vehicle off to a lot and the owner has to come to collect it, generally with cash.

I’m not saying just do it maliciously, but if they’re asked to drive the car off, they should just block it and call a tow company.

Waymo pays for that toe and an outlandish amount of daily fees until they pick it up.

To them, it’s no big deal, a few hundred dollars.

but compound that with the car being out of service for a few days. hiring someone, or flying someone in to unlock it… easy peasy

win-win, tow companies fill their lots with waymo, people from waymo need to come get the car, pay hundreds in cash (because all those places are cash only) there’s no room in the lot for normal tows.

The passengers should get free rides for a year.

Super small compared to their income, but a GREAT reason to make all the users age validate.

sounds like they needed to call a tow truck….

And if I don’t want to use their smart features?

this seems like it might be a win

In specific it can, especially in disk access. In general, games are notably, but not earthshatteringly, slower.

ohhh shit, stop, I can only get so hard……

How awesome would it be for wine to outperform windows :)

That thing always looked WAAAY to expensive to be maintainable.

I had midjourney make a bunch of stuff for halloween projections and there’s no way they made any money off my monthly subscription

looks nervous well, you see… ummmm… if we put more water in it, it would splash out and ruin the product

They’ll nail us to the wall for using lemmy before they nail us for making routers :)
