How does one set up such a filter?

What’s the second reason?

Got a message saying I was banned from a sub I wasn’t even subscribed to and hadn’t posted to. I replied to the message telling them to get stuffed. They reported me and got me banned from Reddit for 3 days.

So instead, I banned Reddit and haven’t looked back. F-'em.

Nuclear Power Industry: “We need to invest $10B in nuclear plants!”
Everyone else: “Why not just spend $1B on battery storage instead?”
Nuclear Power Industry: “Nah, that’s not feasible.”

I mix my wasabi and soy sauce every time. I also dip my sushi in this mixture rice-side down. I’ve never had anyone complain about this. If any sushi chef ever does complain I will just leave and never give business to that gas station again.

Just making doubly-sure the door won’t pop off during the return flight.

From the article, it sounds like the HPV vaccine would help prevent these penile cancers.
Refresh my memory… weren’t Republicans up in arms trying to prevent their children from getting the HPV vaccine?

I’ll try that.

Been using a Matias Ergo Pro for several years now. Love the chonky CTRL, OPTION, CMD and Spacebar keys.

Before purchase, I read reviews that some of the keys would tend to stick. Indeed, after a few months, the ‘F’ key decided that it was going to work according to its own plan. So the reviews were right. A good keyboard if they would just fix their d*mn key issues.

Working on building a new custom keyboard to replace it.

Agreed. Want to add that (in my opinion, at least) Lucas’s Episodes I, II & III didn’t do the series any favors either. :-(

AI has failed so many times it has joined the junkpile of online personalities that are so bad we can no longer tell the difference between their actual errors and those created as sarcasm.

Steve Bannon files appeal to Supreme Court in bid to stay out of jail

Seeing how he is not

• young
• attractive
• rich

I don’t see this working out as well as he hopes it will.

Yup. It’s the same fucked-up psychology corps use for their customers. Like running ads for super discounts for new customers. Existing customers that have never missed a payment? Fuck-em. Instead of giving 1% “thank you” for good customers, corps would rather lose the good customers and pay a premium to find new ones.

So it goes.

And fuck Carly Fiorina for destroying HP.

This happens to anyone rich and/or famous. People flock to them to attempt to ply them with flattery or leach money in some way. Consider how many people say that Trump is a genius.

They also love to hate FDR in general.

don’t forget to hate the other people who were actually the ones in control. Because that machine is still running, it’s the one behind project 2025, not trump’s dumbass.

These words should be inscribed on a monument somewhere.

W as well. On 9/12/2001 the world was falling over itself to (at least act like it) support the US. A normal person would have been able to take that support on a silver platter and make something of it.

Instead he decided¹ that he wanted to invade a country totally unrelated to the attacks.

¹ Of course we now know W had the intellectual capacity of a child and it was likely his sidekick that pushed the Iraq narrative.

True. I’m gonna go out on a limb and add another reason: Money in politics.

When I was a kid, if a politician was accused of taking bribes, they would fall over themselves to deny the accusation. Later, the politician would simply reply, “It was pay for access, not a bribe.”
Now, they don’t even respond to such accusations. Bribes are so normalized that we don’t even notice them anymore.

(For the pendants, yes there are pols that are occasionally punished for literally accepting bribes, some recently. My point is that there is little difference between literally accepting money and storing it in a freezer and having several billionaires fund your re-election campaign with dozens of legal loopholes.)

This allows The Rich to have a very heavy hand on the tiller for which way elections go. If rich folks weren’t pouring big money into elections (corporations are people too!) I’m willing to bet at least one political party in the US would be dead now.

What’s to keep Equity firms from buying those 2 million homes? Won’t that just leave us back where we are now?

Do we think we can build more homes than Equity firms can spend other people’s money on?
