They're not unemployed or underemployed by any common definition of those words. If California wants to support striking workers, great, but it shouldn't be under these programs.

And realistically there's no reason why this isn't a Union problem to solve instead of a government one. Dues are paid for a reason.

That's a lot of words to be wrong, friend-o.

Saying "Are you sure you don't want to revise your testimony, because we have factual evidence that it's false and that may lead to an indictment for perjury." isn't extortion, it's allowing this guy to not loyalty his way into a felony.

Imagine, the police/prosecution use their discretion and don't throw the book at someone and idiots still take exception to it

If Congress lacks the authority to regulate the Supreme Court, then certainly they also lack the authority to fund the Supreme Court...

How quickly we want to become Reddit I guess.

I mean this in the least condescending way possible, but you don't understand how American politics works.

The absolute best scenario for Democrats is for the Republicans to split their ticket between Trump and DeSantis - or anyone else, but there doesn't seem to be anyone else thus far with his pull on the national stage.

It'll be Clinton-Bush-Perot but in reverse.

yes the whole nation is in jeopardy because some warmongers arent getting their promotions

The whole nation is in jeopardy because these leadership positions are being held open until Trump is reelected in a rework of the Merrick Garland SC nomination. Which should be terrifying. Jan 6 failed in part because some of the military top brass (Miley) put oath before Trump.

Read up on Project 2025 if you haven't. These "unconnected events" are anything but. It's a strategy.

Disney v. Florida GOP is the best example of the enemy of my enemy since probably WW2

These people also never consider that they're measuring the wrong thing. If they're taking the position that the effects of testosterone from birth in trans M-to-F kids gives them an unfair advantage due to bone density and muscle mass, then they're failing to take into account that there are a number of natural health conditions that produce elevated testosterone levels in women as well.

I'm not saying this to be funny, but women with stubble especially around the chin often have elevated T levels, often due to PCOS. There truly are some women who are "built like a man" and they're not trans - at least certainly not in the way we use the term today. They're natural, their bodies just work differently.

Banning trans kids isn't going to level the playing field in the way they say they want to. Measuring things that testosterone affects like bone density would.

Yes. If it's a workplace injury, OSHA has the authority to come in and dictate mitigation measures.

Clearly this isn't true.

RIF should be a case study in UX/UI design: it's user satisfaction (and really addiction) were a direct result to the ease of use of the interface and the speed with which you could consume content.

I fucking miss RIF already, and it's not been 24 hours yet. When's the last time you felt this way about an app?

If you punch someone on the nose, you can't expect sympathy when they punch back. This isn't going to produce the result Hamas was going for.

ITT: people who don't know that "loli" derives from the Nabokov novel "Lolita", about a man who kidnaps and sexually abuses a 12 year old.

I actually took the other side of this argument when Lemmy was ramping up, that the concept of Federation needed to change to make the system more accessible to non-technical users. And I was told that my idea (federating the communities) was counter to the freedom that Lemmy was designed around.

It can't be both ways. It's a cathedral, or it's a bazaar. But if it's a bazaar then we have to deal with the reality that sometimes people beat us to the places we want and have different ideas for what they should be.

Nothing is stopping you from starting worldpolitics, globalpolitics, politics2 or politics on another instance.

I was more meaning wanting the admins to fuck around with the communities a la /u/spez.

It's like a scale model of the war itself

So first off, I don't like the headline. All US subs are nuclear, but this feels like burying the story: parking an SSBN at South Korea is a very specific message. It carries 20 Trident II missiles, each capable of carry 8 475kt warheads (but likely only armed with 4 due to treaty limitations).

38 Megatons of independently targetable nuclear destruction.

That said, the story also talks about how this will drive KJU from the table - as if he was ever there in the first place. Given the state of their current activities, I don't think reminding him that he's fucking around with a country that worked out nuclear delivery via ICBM half a century ago is overly aggressive.

IMO, at some point, someone (and I'm not saying the US necessarily) is going to have to go in and depose the regime and integrate the population into modern society. North Korea is a bigger threat to world stability than Russia, and today that's really saying something.

Honestly, don't bother with a dGPU and get a 12th or 13th gen Intel Core chip with QSV. Intel quietly tuned it up to the point where it's faster than nVidia's NVENC engine even in the latest gen plus you don't have mess around with the uncap streams hack and you're transcoding through system RAM not dGPU RAM, so far less likely that your stream limit will be artificially constrained by memory limitations.

To answer the question you asked though, the nVidia NVENC is the best solution on a dGPU. It's performance is largely the same across the same board generation, with one exception in the GTX 10X0 series. The absolute cheapest card you can lay your hands on that has an NVENC engine is the 1050TI.

The caveat is the 1070 and 1080 have two NVENC engines. It will double max number of streams in theory, however in reality you're memory bound on those cards and it's more like a 33% bump.

It seems like you made this comment in jest, but I wouldn't say it's outside the realm of possibility. We can't fly off the handle and lob accusations absent any sort of proof, but it would hardly be the first example of a corporation targeting an up-and-coming disruptive service run by amateurs.

Bad headline. Those that are upset with Florida treating slavery like it was a JVS are not the ones who are in the wrong.
