Republicans ask Donald Trump to revoke Zohran Mamdani's citizenship
Remember when they all claimed they had no problem with LEGAL immigration?
Well yeah, they had a problem with any kind that makes them lose.

If the federal government can manufacture 37 felony convitctions against one of the most high profile people alive how come they can't manufacture one against Abrego Garcia?

5th Amendment doesn't say "No citizen" it says "No person" is entitled to due process.

I avoid approaching women in public because I believe it's inappropriate. My parents say that it's a necessary skill. Who is right?
It's okay to approach and have normal conversations with women that you don't have business or school commonalities with. Even if you think you may have interest to eventually escalate it into dating. Just be genuine and don't try to be someone you're not. But once you make that attempt to date, if they say no, accept that no and don't try again unless it's blatantly obvious they've changed their mind.

Do people in America actually believe Vaccine cause autism or is bad for health? Or Is it a joke?
Mostly the right-wing leaning Americans, who don't like anything that costs them money even if it contributes towards a better society. They say they hate Socialism in all its forms, but had absolutely no problem accepting stimulus handouts. They are the pure leeches of our country.
Left-wing leaning Americans tend to believe science even if it comes as a slight inconvenience to themselves, that includes things that sometimes cost them money.

Steam payment headaches grow as PayPal is no longer usable for much of the world: Valve hopes to bring it back in the future, 'but the timeline is uncertain'
Reply in thread
A few matters - About 5-6 years ago - PayPal was going to make telemarketing your phone number a requirement in order to have an account - If you had an account, they were going to FORCE you to allow their 3rd party marketing calls. No opt-out available whatsoever.
PayPal is also an owner of the extension Honey - an extension that promoted they would try every online coupon code to see if you could save money on a deal. Recently (within the last year) it was discovered that even if they didn't provide you with any discount at all - they were still hijacking the referral links that brought you to the shop site in the first place. They were also striking deals to those same vendors about kickbacks to NOT keep the best coupons in their system. Essentially they were taking money from three sides, promoters, vendors, and the purchasers - all while NOT providing the best possible coupon codes - which was the whole advertised point of their service. Lawsuits on this are pending.

This is a time where it's hard to be away from politics. I switched to all tech news after the U.S. election, and the tariffs are strongly influencing the supply and demand, and the convict is skewing crypto ponzi schemes in his personal favor which has a lot of influence on hardware. He has Musk that's trying to influence hard on AI which also impacts a lot of our hardware.
Can't fucking get away from it, really.

Have Americans always been this stupid?
I don't fucking get the religious right in my country, all I can say is they're so fucking gullible by the corporate mainstream media, facts and hit them in the fucking face and they'll always move the goalposts. They form an opinion and never be swayed by it, despite the strong evidence against it. They picked a guy who cheated on every wife he has, a criminal past, massive security clearance violations, is the most un-christlike in behaviors... And they excuse it all because they don't like being told they can't do things that are harmful to ourselves, or they only like receiving socialism but don't like the responsibility of paying into it. They're selfish as fuck, and I'm sick of it.

Democrats refuse to fold over shutdown as Republican outrage builds

The Speaker of the House has the power to keep everyone in session for as long as it takes to pass anything. Instead of voting over and over until anything passes, he's sent them away. The Democrats COULDN'T vote to pass right now, because only Mike Johnson can call them in to vote.

We Desperately Need Maximum Wage Laws
They already play a shell game with wages, so they don't pay income taxes. Most of the really rich and successful people have their incomes derived from capital gains and then use the talking point that it's already money that was taxed through their business so it shouldn't be taxed further.
TAX CAPITAL GAINS.

Nostalgia. Now it's pretty much obsolete computer terms. When I was a kid, half of a byte was still relevant in computer programming on an Apple 2 Plus computer. One nibble (also can be spelled nybble) is equal to 4 bits.

I think he's trying to crash the USD so he can claim it's more volatile than crypto, and miraculously be the owner of the solution where he will continue to bleed the rest of the world dry of capital.

Payment Processors Are Pressuring Major Gaming Vendors to Pull LGBTQ+ and NSFW Titles
I don't choose a payment processor over their morality standards. I choose how to spend my own money, not them. They shouldn't have a say in that matter.

People who have been in meetings to determine back to in office policy. What was the discussion like?
My wife's employment (a national company providing services to homes) not only embraced the remote work that COVID forced her into, they closed down their central customer service call center to save that money.
This year they're talking about taking all the administrative people out of the local offices and only needing the service people pick up supplies and having the remote workers pick up the volume.

Because gaming is slowly migrating over to PC as gamers see that while there's a higher cost up front -- but a longer lasting library at a cheaper cost to build it. PC tech journalists cover more than just videogaming so they can diversify their coverage when gaming is in a slow release period.

It's always a question of money. It costs money to make quality content. YouTube has content because they share ad revenue to their content providers. That expands the more popular the content is because there are more ads displayed. That revenue lets the creators expand their capabilities with better gear and stage sets. Federated networks usually depend initially on volunteers and alternative ways of earning revenue for those instances besides ads.

It would make more sense to equip it up if they planned on keeping it as Air Force One after Trump leaves office, but they have already said they plan on keeping it with the Trump Presidential Library.. so the U.S. gov will spend all this money on a secure aircraft for a few months before it's decommissioned.. but he's just a CHAMPION of cutting wasteful spending. /s
