Dolly Parton, queen of country music and humanitarian hero, dead at 80

Reply in thread

I see this sentiment shared throughout the internet.

It's not going to stop once he dies, it's naive to believe so. Sure I'll pour some scotch older than he prefers his girls but he's just a useful idiot with zero empathy and zero shame that the party in power needs as the face and voice. The clown.

The players in power will remain, they're going to need a new useful idiot, sooner rather than later.

Germany’s affordable answer to the Fairphone with a "super battery" at a bargain price: Gigaset GX6 Pro review

I've never understood sacrificing battery for thinness.

I'm a grown ass man I can carry the weight, give me phone a heavy big ass battery. Give me a battery with a screen.

I understand the design engineers across the industry are just in a pissing contest on who can make it thinner. But c'mon...they're just phones they don't need to weigh a 8ball. They forgot about people like me who'd prefer to charge it once every couple days.

Solar panels for surveillance but none for affordable power

Scale. They can't monetize it in scale otherwise they would. It's not economically viable either way. Power a camera sure, a cities electrical grid?

You have to make money from something in order for the government to implement it at scale.

I've read in another news article that flock themselves began making concessions about how much data they collect and for how long? That's how you know it's being used for government surveillance when they have to scale it back themselves in order not to end up under a lens.

Right Down the Middle

The only egregious part of the carnival is that people think the shit show will end once trump dies.

He is just a puppet mouthpiece and clown face of the hidden puppet masters who are hiding behind his megalomania.

Trump didn't win, he was put there because he was useful to the real people in power, even if he doesn't know it himself.

Canada suspends trade negotiations with USA and match tariffs dollar for dollar

As a Canadian I'm not happy it went down this way. I realize this will hurt and prices will rise, cost of living will rise. I'm not one for a knee jerk emotional reaction and be one to turn sudden blame on our leaders, I know the architects in america have designed these trade negotiations to divide and conquer.

What isn't for sale is our identity, pride and self respect. This will be our lives going forward and that feels bad sure, makes me angry. I trust our current government, party be damned, have our interests being put forth first.

This is our life now folks. We're just going to have to deal. What you gonna do? "Vote for the other guy"? doing so doesn't remove the oligarchs down south.

'scuse me while I go the LC to try another Canadian booz 🤣 numb the ill feeling towards turnip turd. 🍻

It will be. The fans of gtaiv and gtav were children when those games came out. Their brains and personalities were in utero basically.

Grown ass men in their 40s will play gtavi and see how silly and profoundly lame the GTAverse is.

Genz and gen a will be nothing except offended by everything in the game. I have no doubt they're (rockstar) going to pander to the trans community to save a little face.

I'm certain the game will flop, especially because all their design time was proooobbbabbly, building the entire micro economy and microtransaction store that's going to be the centerpiece of the franchise going forward.

Pbbbbbbhhht. Stinker incoming.
