Hi there!
Boomers are all bigoted, sexist, climate change denying pieces of shit?
… kinda a shitty take there mate. Lots of them are terrible, but so aye lots of people from other generations too, and tarring them all with the same brush is only going to alienate the good ones and make them quite reasonably dislike you.
This is fucking hilarious, best news I’ve heard in forever.
*American politics.
My own nation’s leader was banging on about wanting to push to be a leader in climate change action just a few days ago, it made various headlines.
It’s not like we’re all suddenly going to forget what’s happening around us because some other country just elected it’s first self-admitted Dictator.
Americans can’t possibly be that far up their own arses.
Is IPFS something your family and friends check on regularly? I don’t even know what it is.
Considering your reluctance to give any information about your assertion that such a project using it becomes useless, I’m not sure you know what it is either :P
I’ve met plenty of Tories and their ilk, but none of them would vote for someone they publicly think is basically Hitler.
This bloke’s thought processes are so alien to us they I don’t think we’ll ever understand him, sadly.
Probably the Tories
How is it gonna nag me to upgrade to Windows 11 when I don’t have a TPM?
I’d love to upgrade, the system is completely capable of running it, but because it doesn’t have a useless bit of hardware I can’t. Fuck em.
Oh my GOSH you did not just say FUCK, on MY internet?
Straight to hell!
I still don’t know who it is, but I’d imagine it’s an American bloke, probably famous for something recently over there.
You’re all on some kind of… Star Trek?
Huh weird, the only reason to use Premium is to cut out the adverts.
“Would you like to buy Premium?” “Ooh, what do I get?” “YOU GET NOTHING! GOOD DAY SIR!”
PG Tips :-D
I know everyone goes on about Yorkshire Tea and sure I like it too, but I’ve been drinking PG Tips several times a day for my entire life, and I love it.
Proper tea that keeps England going!
I can’t wait to see Commander Shepard, she’s gonna be bloody great!
I wonder which origin they’ll go with…
What’s the little elephant star logo from?
What’s he holding in his hand? What’s he doing? I’m so confused xD
Many many things, but one I’ve not seen touched on much is how LONG the lead up is.
Here, quite often they announce an election and then a few weeks later we have the election.
It doesn’t really make any sense to drag it out, that’s more than enough time to learn about the candidates, the current state of the various parties and their manifestos, and time for debates and discussions and such before polling day.
The idea that an election run up can go on for months and months and months feels silly/wasteful.
The difference I suspect is in the ease of which we have access to local polling stations within walking distance of our homes, and how short the queues are, if there are queues at all.
In the US these problems can be magnified, especially if everybody is trying to pile in to the stations (or just reach them) within the one hour they have before their 12 hour shift, etc.
I’m sorry, but at 15 you’re old enough to know that stabbing a stranger to death is wrong.
Yes? What do you think they’re implying, that we should try to rehabilitate criminals… but only if they’re still young?
I think (and forgive me if I’m wrong) they’re essentially saying that without a rehabilitory justice system, we’re just locking people up for life and creating a net drain on society. Financially, culturally… it’s a morale drain on our nation, even.
Not to mention that as a society we’re abandoning a person who, through a justice system built on rehabilitation and not some ye oldie Catholic concept of creating a punishing Hell on Earth, could actually flourish one day, adding to our society instead of taking from it.
A prison system designed to simply incarcerate, punish and torture those it touches will never offer anywhere near the same benefits to us as one that is designed to attempt to rehabilitate.
Not everybody can be rehabilitated, of course, but that’s like saying we shouldn’t try to treat cancer, because not everybody can be cured.
What if I told you to take a good long look at the entire republican party, and ask you to give me a single compelling arguement that these people are actually people?
I thought they were the ones dehumanising their opponents?
People don’t need to provide a compelling argument that they’re people, even if you don’t like them.
Why not? Are my posts not good enough for you Mr Bluesky?
