Yep, so much outrage. People are seething. Seething!
Someone should write an article about Trump getting “slammed”. Or someone could “fire back”, that would make a good headline. Such a response might cause Trump to have a “meltdown”.
If Trump’s insane provocations continue, eventuallly some americans will get so outraged that they will slowly roll over, scratch themselves, and fart.
LLMs are cool up to a point. It is pretty neat to see something imitate human speech so convincingly. But that’s it: neat. Like a phone shaped like a hamburger.
For me to be impressed beyond that, your thing needs to either do something that I can’t do better or do something i don’t want to do. I can write a pretty good grade 8 essay. I can summarize a paragraph. I can write a dirty limerick. I can complete my own sentence without punctuation suggestions.
When I want to create something, I want to do it myself. Putting my ideas in order and finding the words to say something meaningful is the fun part. Even when I write a work email or a cover letter, I’m not really interested in help. Either I have something to say (don’t want help), or I rattle it off in one go (don’t need help).
Microsoft, I don’t owe you my attention or my money. Make something useful that doesn’t suck. Impress me.
Like, not every grim headline makes me laugh out loud. Well done, satirical newspaper ‘usa today’.
It’s not exactly a minivan but i like my C-RV
What an asshole. If the same thing that makes your government powerful also makes your government evil, than supporting that thing does not make you a patriot, it makes you a fascist.
They got a lot of stuff wrong, TBH. President Camacho, for all his superficial similarity to Trump, is sincerely invested in helping his country. Reality is way, way worse.
10 more years of Trump as president and you stupid fuckers won’t have anything to trade anyway. Good riddance.
Cool, but let’s send tigers to hunt the proud boys. The ciiiiircle of liiiiiiife!
yeah, i agree the disparity is shit. there is no legitimate reason to treat weed smokers differently. if you were to use a gun in self defence, say, i can understand that whether you were impaired at the time might be PART of the legal picture, but that notion should apply evenly to everyone, irrespective of the drug. like you said, it is just another tool for targeted enforcement.
Funny thing is, i agree. i used to like going to the range, shooting clay pigeons, etc. handguns are tightly controlled in my country, but i imagine i would like them too if i ever got to use one. i still don’t think just everyone should have one, though, because the societal price is too high to justify.
People who regularly smoke weed should not own guns. Neither should anyone else. Sincerely, every developed nation.
Naw man. I agree with you up to a point, but not all religions are the same. I don’t see any Baha’i terrorists out there. Not even all Christian denominations are the same. The whackadoos are attracted to some religions more than others, and some religions foster crazy shit more than others.
That being said, I don’t want anything to do with American Evangelical Christianity. From what I’ve seen, that shit is right up there with the worst of nutjob religions.
This is my fondest wish. I think many Americans are ready to rally around someone mounting a serious opposition to Trump, but no one has stepped up so far. I love Bernie and i believe he is important to the movement, but they need a young, charismatic, inspiring leader to start getting very loud about the real situation in the US. It will be an uphill battle because the media have been captured by people either cowed by or sympathetic to Trump. Maybe Lemmy can be the platform for DS in the states. Legacy media has failed (with maybe 1-2 exceptions).
This is just people waking up to reality. Trump has the White House, the senate, the House of Representatives, and the courts. He controls the military and has already begun deployment to “democratic” cities. His buddy in Texas is redistricting to help him consolidate power, and I am sure Abbot is not the only one. Every move Trump makes is designed to cripple opposition to his regime. Republican states are purging voter rolls and enacting bullshit laws designed to disenfranchise people of colour.
Milquetoast democrats have made only the most pathetic gestures of opposition to Trump. The first genuine thing Trump ever said was when he expressed surprise yesterday at how little resistance he has faced from the left. Republicans were right about one thing: the American left is a bunch of pussies.
If more Americans think political violence is the only way out of the mess Americans made, it’s probably because they are starting to develop a vague but accurate understanding of what is happening in their country.
I know what you mean, but I think that a government shutdown would stop the country eventually. There is too much critical infrastructure that is run by the government. The civil service, no matter how much some people deride it, is the main difference between a functional country and somewhere like Somalia. Somalia should be a republican’s wet dream, right? Entrepreneurs can exploit any resources they want, they have no labour board, no safety standards, no corporate income tax. And yet, Somalia has so far failed to overtake the USA as a paragon of innovation and productivity. If anyone wants to see what a country with small government really looks like, they need only look at Somalia.
Wow, richest country in the world to North Korea speedrun. Go Trump! Make America isolated, poor and irrelevant.
Trump can stop a country: see the upcoming shutdown. Americans don’t have a lot of remaining opportunities to stop fascism. Y’all might want to do something about Trump while he can’t pay his soldiers - might be your last chance.
That’s how I fixed it too! We can still watch videos on a desktop if there is something specific we want to see, but I never let the algorithm do its work. Youtube recommends this video? Nah.
start with yourself, bitch. give your money to charity and we’ll find you a nice line job at a meat packing plant.
jensen huang, finding success for you will mean avoiding the guillotine.
