It's exactly what you think it is. Just because the man keeps trying to say he's liberal, doesn't mean he actually is. He keeps throwing out old and tired and debunked maga talking points such as the 'covid's a bioweapon' lie, or the Hunter Biden laptop lie, and then attacks DEI as some boogie man without actually showing any real harm being done by the initiative except to act like older white men's views (read: his views) aren't getting more respect. He also makes the same old tired accusation that NPR and of course "liberal media" is hiding information when in reality, it's only reporting information that it can confirm as factual. It isn't "Steve Inskeep said that covid isn't a bioweapon" it's "XYZ Scientists say covid is not a bioweapon".

In other words, he wants NPR to report on MAGA conspiracy theories like conservative media does. His complaints boil down to claiming that NPR's integrity in journalism isn't fair to conservatives who want to hear unsubstantiated claims that make them feel good, and that's why they lost conservative listeners. He keeps referring to 'viewpoint diversity' as a coded phrase to really mean conservative viewpoints. He keeps trying to act like diversity means having to let nazi's take over the conversation, and to not let them do so makes the organization a hypocrite. Again, that's a tired and old conservative talking point. And of course like every white guy surrounded by diversity initiatives, he thinks he's the only rational person in the room and must call out the insanity of diversity initiatives as some secret evil that only his eyes can see.

Dude should go work at Fox. He'd do great there.

If they're starving for bread, then why don't they eat cake?

You know what's cool? Piracy. Piracy is cool.

Calling a method of execution barbaric in it's practice isn't the same as saying the executed is a hero. If you're not willing to engage with this subject, then please don't make one up to get angry at others over.

Hey, I just watched the video on youtube last night. He started off with the good things such as the physical design of the device, or the interesting way it can project a laser image on your hand, but after that, it was all downhill.

Or security. Lots of cops moonlight as security guards.

It's such a forceful word that's lost all meaning in this day and age. Every time I see the word 'slam' in a headline I know literally nothing has been done about the problem.

Like, thanks Mozilla. You pointed a finger. What now?

Those three things may not be magic bullets, but pretending that there's nothing we can do is just lazy thinking. Obviously we don't have a time machine, so the next best is housing, healthcare, and rehab. All things that many homeless people would take advantage of if it existed. You are correct that not all will, but many, many will.

Don't let perfection become the enemy of progress.

I guess it's fun to cosplay as a poor, but they keep bribing politicians to prevent that. Their wealth can make that happen if they actually wanted that.

Yeah, there was only one right that was in question. The average confederate soldier was there because he wanted to protect the white mans ability to own slaves because he thought he was going to get rich doing it once the war was over.

So I guess the answer is yes, the media made it a story by writing this very story.

You're just describing the horrors of capitalism. The difference is that the guy with the gold under a system of UBI can be voted out if they don't follow the will of the people.

You do understand that two people can not be married, and have kids together, right? Just because they're not married doesn't mean the mom or dad has no legal rights to the kid. The father is the father regardless of the relationship status of the parents and same for the mother.

Also, my dad wasn't poly, and he vacated my life all on his own.

Hey folks, this comment above mine is what's called a 'straw-man' fallacy. It's when you don't have an argument against for the specific argument being stated, so you invent another similar but significantly different argument to argue against instead. The first comment states that it's ridiculous to ban semi auto firearms when that's the vast majority of guns you can buy, and the second commenter instead argues that they should be legally allowed to own a grenade launcher in sarcasm as an attempt to show how firearm legal restrictions are a good thing as they prevent the ownership of grenade launchers.

Also, it's legal to own a grenade launcher in the US. It's just not legal to own the grenades. Plus, a grenade launcher is really just any 37mm chambered weapon. It could fire grenades, flares, or smoke bombs. They're also single shot weapons, so a semi-auto ban isn't going to cover them.

At this point, how many times has Miles watched himself die? His whole life is like one giant existential tragedy.

Right. as time goes on, the lithium ion battery capacity will continue to degrade until it's just like that crappy laptop in the closet that only runs if it's plugged in. Batteries have a limited number of times they can be recharged. Only way to fix it is to either rebuild the battery, or replace the battery. Either is expensive, but not sure if it's cheaper than the cost of charging and replacing versus gas for the same time period. Remember, you can't charge your car for free. You either pay a higher electric bill, or pay a fee at the supercharger station. Lower end is about 25 bucks to charge up to full from 0 at a super charger. Compared to the last time I gassed up my Yaris, I paid 27 bucks, and I get about 250 miles from that full tank. Not sure if a tesla actually beats that or not. Doesn't sound like the Cybertruck does though.

Right, so it makes sense to use ad blockers to stop all ads. If bad actors can corrupt absolutely everything, then absolutely all ads will need to be blocked.

In the US, a government agency must accept any legal tender, including pennies. A private business can refuse specific forms of payment.

Tell me you know jack shit about prepping without telling me you know jack shit about prepping.

My guy, that's the information people use when they decide who to vote for. What exactly are you trying to make a point about? That no one should even listen to anything about politics or something?
