I didn’t actually see it myself, but I heard a lot of people thought it looked AI at first and that it was genuine (alternate angles and stuff like you said). It’s good to check up on it (sounds like you actually put the effort in) so we can try to keep our facts straight, as hard as that is these days.

Just FYI to people that you can get remanufactured ink cartridges for a fraction of the price (around half) of OEM. They are sometimes modified to contain more ink in the same body. The company I purchased from included a prepaid bag to send used cartridges back for reuse.

Also while I’m in PSA mode “REDUCE, REUSE, and then recycle”. Sometimes we skip over the first two steps since reducing is not marketable and reusing rarely is (although reusing printer cartridges appears to be a sustainable business).

I think that video was confirmed

Technically all of these responses are political. I think we know what OP meant though, and the discussion is all the better for it!

Tbf Gold_E_Lox was being snarky in the first place

Nobody has mentioned mattermost yet. I haven’t stress tested it by any means, but I found it too be decent.

Given that you’re underage, I’m going to lock this thread before it gets weird.

I hope you can find the community and support you need, especially if it is offline.

The other hand of the issue is the Democrats have repeatedly failed to recognize and manage the necessary decline of capitalism. It’s “necessary” because capitalism had globalized and essentially run out of land and people too exploit.

Exploited countries will push (are pushing) back, and/or look for other options (China, etc). Because the Democratic party is a pro-capitalism party, they are unable to recognize this situation. Republicans recognize it and turn up the heat, both internally and externally. For a lot of (foolish) Americans, this looks like an appealing option.

The democrats could sweep 2028, but it means the snapback is going to be even more intense in 2032 when they fail to govern.

No offense (sounds like you questions were answered anyway), but I’m going to remove your post since c/asklemmy is not for support! Feel free to DM or use c/Lemmy if you need any more help!

I’m not sure whether the quantity of deportations would have to do with the reorg, or if it has more to do with overall executive policy (or other factors).

Regardless I don’t think there needs to be a dedicated police agency dedicated to the internal enforcement of immigration. Whatever enforcent does take place does not need to be conducted by a militarized agency (which, is my primary concern with being part of “DHS”). ICE is already have been shit for a long time, not to mention the 2018 calls for “abolish ICE” because of the “kids in cages” (which were built under the Obama admin) which was already the correct call.

They don’t offer anything useful, even when they don’t have Trump’s trillion dollar funding package. Toss them and start over, it isn’t even a big deal.

Crockett is behind in the latest primary polling, right? 🙏🏻

New organizations may be required to serve the function of border protection, immigration and customs enforcement

Or even existing border patrol and CBP (and we should look at reforms to those agencies as well)

Not true, the department ment was moved under the Department of Homeland Security. This reorganization has had a demonstrable effect in how it is led. There is nothing they do that can’t be dealt with by other law enforcement. The DHS itself was a ridiculous ratcheting of the surveillance/police state “in response to 9-11” (that’s the excuse that was dropped in their lap).

You can enforce immigration and border controls without ICE. It was functioning just fine until 2003. In your attempt to find a “middle ground” position I dont think your landing pint is reasonable.

Who could have possibly predicted this?

Yeah the answer is to log off

I’m so disappointed with the state of tech and the way the “FOSS movement” as flawed as it can be at times is so weak.

Not surprised though, it was just a matter of time (about a decade) after the capital started really flowing that everything was required to go to shit.

Thank you for respecting Democracy ^TM

I think downloading one today is fine as well. It’s possible that it’s going byo get worse in the future, but it’s not like Wikipedia was perfectly “clean” and without its flaws/bias before January 2025. Wikimedia looks like they’re going to offer so e nominal resistance to whatever tf this is, but we will see how it plays out.

Question (that I’m not going to look up), but does wiki have a way to download everything with the change history? Cause in that case you could have an offline copy that you could roll back as far as you’d like.

This could work if you live in Venice or something, but i meant *taking* damnit
