Yeah; the 2010s were decidedly weird coming out of the 2008 recession. Lots of effort to combat inflation. Eventually, it couldn’t be done anymore because all the tricks had already been used.

I just imagined what would happen to their GPUs if bricks were used :D
TL;DR: Trump is offended that people value those who give their lives for the benefit of their country over those who look good on camera and give him money. And his PR team stands behind him.
“Accused of”?
Surely we have the actual footage and it’s a fact?
Money… also known as… capital?
You’re saying that it’s not capitalism at fault, it’s people who are bad at capitalism who are at fault.
If you house those people, they’re no longer homeless. Problem solved. Other problems (like lack of consequences for bad life decisions) will still exist, but not homelessness.
In my experience, drug and alcohol abuse is compounded by capitalism and by homelessness. The biggest contributor to homelessness though is neural atypicalness - people who don’t think in ways that directly benefit the society they live in. Often this expresses itself through coping systems that lead to addiction.
The other thing of course is that if society doesn’t like someone, they’ll likely end up unhoused in that society.
Lonsdale denounces “the Marxist idea that American capitalism causes homelessness, and that only far-left activism can fix it.”
But… American-style capitalism DOES contribute to homelessness. It’s not the only contributor, but it definitely is a component.
And I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone but the far right claim that anyone thinks far-left activism can fix homelessness.
What fixes homelessness is providing homes to everyone who needs one, along with a support network that allows people to actually live in their home with the freedoms afforded to advantaged people. How that’s accomplished is up to the community.
How? Nobody’s testing anymore. Hospitalization and wastewater testing will only get you so far.
Musk did something right? He seems to stumble into that from time to time, despite himself.
I’d also highly recommend reading https://endsoftwarepatents.org/2023/04/googles-decision-to-deprecate-jpeg-xl-emphasizes-the-need-for-browser-choice-and-free-formats/ — more than features and future proofing, the big issue here is patents. Google controls the patents for AVIF.
Then again, I use HEIF, which is alternately patent encumbered, and default to PNG and SVG for web-facing graphics.
It’s time to reset allowable capital gains.
Big question is: who’s storing the email, you or them? Your mail clients handle POP3 and IMAP as well as SMIME and GPG so the server doesn’t have to have any special features itself.
Since you want something your wife can manage, stay away from the forwarders. Whatever you choose, check Spamhaus and SURBL to see if the provider has a history of getting on their lists.
Make sure you select one that can stay in business providing email service, so you don’t have to worry about the company collapsing/being bought out/pushing ads/selling PII/bundling mail with some more lucrative service.
I’ve been using vim/GVim for over 30 years; with only minimal tweaks I’ve used it with maybe 15 different programming languages/compilers, a few of which needed custom configurations written to do anything useful.
While everyone else is struggling to get on with the IDE du jour, I just get stuff done without having to learn anything new other than a new syntax and library set.
GVim is available pretty much everywhere? And it’s infinitely customizable.
It does have a learning curve, but then you get to use that knowledge for the rest of your life.
Sounds like a plausible argument. Supporting genocide to prove they’re more powerful than China.
Color blindness perpetuates structural racism. On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a goldfish.
There’s the cultural issues, but those aren’t limited to African Americans vs White Americans on the Internet.
Your rules should apply to everyone, including those two groups. The trickier part is dealing with privilege.
This is not fascism. It’s vile, but a different type of vileness.
People are in a difficult place right now; the options are: vote for the guy who will make life demonstrably worse for everyone and has a chance of winning, for the woman who doesn’t appear to care about the genocide and has a chance of winning, or voting any other way and effectively wasting your vote because it won’t even make it past the post.
And that is why voting for her will not even make a statement.
And if she was actually elected, absolutely nothing would happen without the majority of the house and senate also becoming socialist.
A PSL president would be even less functional than Trump because they’d have zero backing.
That’s not their style.
In a surprise twist, the Supreme Court finds that all amendments after the second to the constitution are unconstitutional, thereby making all non-religious nonprofit organizations (and a billion other things) unconstitutional.
Takeaway: being a celebrity destroys any hope of having regular relationships.
The few celebrities I know of who still love each other after 20+ years do so mostly at the cost of their celebrity status. There’s a few like Dolly Parton who walk a fine line. Works best if the relationship pre-dates celebrity status.
