To be clear, any fix to the system will take years, if not decades, to actually matter. So pushing against UBI is literally demanding that people suck it up and die while you wait in comfort for your proposed utopia.

My favorite part is when all these “hard workers” are actually just spending 12 hours/day at the office bullshitting and slacking off

Of course! There are also trolls that post outlandish stories and then incredulously post screenshots of said stories to reddit or lemmy

Train noob here, what does the “20% of multi-track operation” line mean?

Yay for the American oligarchs

Holy victim complex, batman. The sentence to reacted so strongly to was the lightest criticism anyone could ever give on any subject.

This was the case for so many veggies for me… my parents were not amazing cooks. Spinach was the worst, just a big slimy pile, but now I love it.

Either something is lost in translation, or I’m missing something 🤔 why is that a good response?

Is that good or bad for the taste

And to be clear, posting on X is in no way related to leadership duties at X.

Spoiler: Elon doesn’t actually do anything. He posts to X an average of every like 20 minutes, literally all day and night. He doesn’t have time for anything except low-effort trolling.

Why not both?

I’m guessing B will happen first, just because we have so much more control of the environment, but we’re still so far away from either one… Maybe I’ll get to see the early stages sometime in my life.

Just put it in the middle and I bet 90% of then would miss it anyway.

They would quickly learn that this person doesn’t exist (I think it’s the professor’s dog?), and ask the prof about it.

I don’t really care either way. Like Digg and Reddit before it, Lemmy will eventually kill itself in confusion and another will take its place. I don’t really care if it grows or shrinks in the meantime 🤷‍♂️ it is what it is

I haven’t bought a Denuvo-protected game in about a decade, and that isn’t going to change.

If only there was some sort of review process for code to get into the kernel…

There is no more for the US to give Israel.

…are you aware of what the US arsenal contains? We have given them very, very few of our capabilities. Trump wants to open them.

The UK is a FPTP system with 7.5 significant parties

… I’m not sure how to break this to you, but the UK is a monarchy and has literally never elected their leader.

FPTP isn’t nearly as problematic in a system with distributed representation like Parliament, the Senate, or the House. It is massively problematic when electing a singular leader.

Correct but obviously exaggerating. I’d love to hear his not-quite-2-year-old daughter “using” 4-syllable words 🙄

There is no legitimate third-party candidate in a first past the post system.
