Unions hate this one weird trick.

It probably has more to do with the people that buy BMWs, Rams, and Teslas driving like fucking idiots than with the cars themselves.

Firefox was never mosaic. It is the successor of Netscape Navigator, kind of, they’re not the same project and there was no continuity but Mozilla was created by Netscape. Microsoft licensed Mosaic to create Internet Explorer based on it.

Adoption exists. If you then followed most comments in this thread you could become a great parent for sure.

Honestly. Given how the world goes, the only thing that can make someone a great parent, in my book, is not having kids. Just bringing a baby into this world is putting your wants before your (not yet existing) child’s wellbeing, which is not something greats parents would do.

Peak humor.

Who disturbs my slumber?

It also would’ve been better measured by holding the tape with the numbers facing him and the tip actually against the wall. Kind of reminds me of these stock pictures about any trade with someone lying bricks with the help of a hammer, using a stethoscope without putting it in their ears, or grabbing a soldering iron by the tip and probing into a computer board…

You’re not wrong. As a southern European I know what they mean with all this austerity bullshit, so fuck these cunts.

BUT.

The American economy really is in shambles. I read not long ago that Americans are bound to pay more than $1 trillion just in interests in 2026, and more than $2T (a year) in ten years. With the predictions of gdp growth (which imho are terribly optimistic since the entire us economy is right now hanging from the AI bubble) the interest rates are going to shoot up, or even get to the point where no one would lend money to the USA, unless something (like that amendment) gives some guarantees that you’re gonna pay the debt back.

So my conclusion is that the US is gonna default on that debt sooner than later, and then it’s just free fall from there. And it will try and drag the rest of the world with it.

We all are fucked.

So in reference to your “we use vosotros” - you use both, but for differenr purposes.

It depends on the dialect and even the age of the speaker, tho. For me (from central Spain, late thirties) ‘usted’ sounds really archaic, like using ‘thou’ in English. I’ve never used it, no matter how old or ‘important’ the other person is. My coworker (also from central Spain), in his 50’s use it quite often to address customers or the company CEO, and it feels weird to hear it in an accent kinda similar to mine from someone not that older. In the southernmost part of Spain they use it a lot, even young people in informal settings, specially in the plural (‘ustedes’).

Don’t try to find it in the picture, folks. At that resolution the area of the crater would be less than two thousandths (2/1000) of a pixel if it were in the centre of the photograph.

Spain, mixed bag. The food in the school I went (public, poor neighborhood) was quite bad, in every sense of the word. They delivered it to the school already made, and it was just heated there. A friend of mine worked in one where they would order fewer rations than the kids they got and divide them (that was the last straw and he changed career). But I’ve heard nicer things of the food in private schools or public ones in wealthier areas, that have a proper kitchen and actually cooked the food there.

Nah it’s ok. This is the games comm, WoodScientist obviously meant in Minecraft.

Oi! Some of us like to keep track of our expenses, it’s a good budgeting practice.

Not just Western Europe, it’s the whole of it. But also Asia, and the Americas. And Africa as well. Quite a tribal species we furless apes are.

So this is the kink your other meme is about, isn’t it?

First, this is, indeed, terrible. If it were up to me I would just abolish prisons altogether.

Now. The article reads like ‘they are treating women in prison as if they were men! How they dare!’ which, 26 years into the 21st century, is honestly appalling.

I thought about starting with ‘most’, but I don’t think it’s necessary when it’s a clear generalization, as the one I did. Also, ‘most voters’ sounds more concrete and solid and my comment is just an observation based on my own experience. And, maybe, it’s all of us, to some extent. Like, how many different parties have you voted for? Because I’ve voted for a bunch of them (not American) but they were really all the same—local branches or rebrandings or whatever. But the only people I’ve seen jumping the isle literally changed their whole identity as well.

Voters don’t follow reason, not even ideology or morals. It’s a matter of identity, like sports. Even if a team plays awfully, fans can bitch about the coach, management, or the players but they don’t quit for a better team, they just think they’ll have a better opportunity next season.
