Why did you post a 3 year old expired draft whose proposed implementation has been obsoleted?

Sounds like some healthy competition the caps are always on about

Regardless of whether or not the parents were around the ability for a body to be forcibly pulled into the machinery is an obvious failure in operating a safe pool.

SCOTUS nominations are probably the only thing gonna make me actually vote for Biden. He’s done some stuff that was good, sure, but no where near what I would have liked to see him accomplish, and his approach to the ongoing genocide is inexcusable, but I can’t let that mean I help Trump decide the court layouts for the rest of my life by staying home.

The account really reads like he lept to using his gun as a first resort instead of the last. When all you have is a hammer…

Also, in a country filled with those who pride themselves on the right to own guns and on their actual ownership of guns I’m still surprised that people view other people having guns as a justification to kill them.

Police kill someone in a routine traffic stop? It’s okay, he had a gun.

Random citizen kills another random citizen? It’s okay, he had a gun.

Grab 5 of the top engineers, sales people, and marketing at the company, double their pay, and grant them a $1,000,000,000 bonus in 5 years time if they beat certain performance metrics. Have them sit on a board as coCEOs and watch true motivation. Kick out the guy that’s demanding 3 times your annual income as “motivational” compensation.

That’s kinda disgusting. In a world where we produce in excess the needs of everyone, but some must go without because of ilk like Gates and Buffett, the hoarders are blessed with the gift of also not having to pay for stuff themselves.

Given that the courts already shutdown Arizona’s attempt last year to keep people 8 feet away from a cop, I’m not sure arguing for 3 times the distance is going to stand.

Trump (in his first term) lost the popular vote.

They gave him a protection plan. The price of the item didn’t change.

I’m normal /s

[The bill] would force President Joe Biden to send weapons to Israel.

The act is not expected to become law.

Now why would it not become the law? The house passed it so does it maybe have to go through the Senate first and then … I think there’s another step. Something like the target of the bill would have to sign it into law himself thereby compelling himself to resume sending weapons (which he never stopped doing, btw). Yeah, I can see no reason why this performative bull shit won’t become law.

Well, when the people that could afford to buy one and were considering it in former years ended up buying one and the people who were waiting for them to become more affordable were met with the news that their only hope for a cheap option was artificially doubled in price overnight to try to prolong the death knells of American hegemony then your left with fewer people considering them.

If you had to choose the possibility of a murder charge and capital punishment for following your oath or simply not, why would anyone opt for the former?

“Don’t like the death camps? Well, we’ll send you to death camps and see how you like them then!”

Of course I know him, he’s me.

Give it a go! It’s like 100MB and you just extract the engine from a zip.

Deleting my grub config instead of editing it. Fortunately that’s pretty easy to recover from, just annoying.

F’ed up installing graphics driver and had to reset everything from another TTY, also just annoying.

Chose the wrong permissions or path on a chmod call and locked out a big party of the system. I think that was during a setup though, so I just started from scratch again.

YOU may not want to be on this jury, but having a jury of one’s peers is a fundamental protection against tyranny. Inevitably some people recognize that and are willing to accept the risks of being on this particular jury to ensure due process is actually followed.

Growing up in a “non-denominational”, independent fundamental Baptist house I was always taught that Catholics weren’t Christians because they worship idols. Now that I’ve left the faith I would easily classify them as being Christian.

While I think many people actually do classify them as Christians they do have some significant differences in their beliefs and practices than most Protestant denominations; and being themselves the largest Christian denomination by far it can be useful in some analysis to treat them as a distinct entity (the answer to “percentage of global population that subscribe to a particular religion” is much more interesting when broken into “Christian Catholic: %” and “Christian Other: %”).
