Well obviously all you lightweights were just stunted by vaccines, REAL babies come out of the womb with all their teeth and a craving for beef jerky
Fewer legal immigrants doesn’t mean fewer workers, it just means fewer people being paid above board. That extra money doesn’t go to union members, it goes to stock buybacks and CEO packages. The more of a company’s workforce is part of the union, the stronger the union’s negotiating position, and THAT’S how unions get more money for their members.
Immigrant labor is actually cheaper when immigration is tightly controlled, at least it is in the US where “restricted” really just means more illegal immigrants rather than fewer overall. When you let people in legally, they’re documented, unions can actually reach out to them, and they are protected by things like minimum wage.
Illegal immigrants are not.
There’s validity in going after something that specifically symbolizes Elon rather than a random gas guzzler. Though electric cars are (debatably) less harmful than regular ones, Elon has done a lot of work in setting back even better solutions by promoting them over things like trains.
Also he sucks for a million other reasons but he’s definitely a sort of wolf in sheep’s clothing when it comes to environmentalism.
I don’t think this is a particularly good take. Inclusivity IS much more important today than it was to people even 10 years ago. The real issue is that being woke is GOOD! It’s crazy that people have twisted it around, like shutting our eyes to the world’s problems (being “asleep”) is somehow the right way to be.
That person is on a mastodon instance
Hmm yes because crossing legally is so easy
The geographical argument for Russia wanting to take Ukraine is nonsense BECAUSE of the nuclear threat. Having a physical buffer zone or whatever is complete nonsense in an era where anyone who poses a real existential threat can simply be nuked out of existence and start the apocalypse. A few thousand kms of extra land does exactly zilch to change the calculus for the West starting a war with Russia. Russia wants Ukraine because it wants to make more money, and no other reason.
Didn’t he get caught using alt accounts to increase his visibility by upvoting his own posts and downvoting others? I’m sure he’d love the Lemmy instance system, it’s next to impossible to detect vote manipulation here
yeah i mean, theres no way lol. even if the tech gets here that quickly there’s 0% chance prices come down significantly on lower capacity drives. these’ll be at least $500 and possibly far far more
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie, but wasn’t the woman in charge of the humans pretty dang villainous? She had a motive, sure, but was pretty unreasonable in the face of evidence she was doing harm to everyone
Wouldn’t it be better to not record them in the first place instead of encrypting them?
I mean, it’s Valve. But it will be funny when #saveTF2 happens for the third time next year, and Valve does their now-yearly ban wave again and everyone repeats wondering if the problem is solved.
I enjoy the idea that some shitass mason hated whatever king hired him, built all the stairs as quickly and poorly as possible, and then to save his ass later had to be all “oh hmm yes the stairs? That’s a feature actually” and somehow it winds up catching on
If “shouted in Klingon” is redundant, then is “said in Klingon” an oxymoron?
Weird to segue directly from arguing that cluster munitions are illegal into claiming that the legality of weapons doesn’t matter, but okay
It’s way cuter if he’s kicking his stubby ol legs
The oldest one we’ve found is 30,000 years old. I’d be willing to bet they’ve actually been around almost as long as we’ve been using tools and enjoying sex
