Can you imagine the badge of fucking honor they'll have if anyone stands up to Trump and causes the network to lose their White House credentials, or their broadcasting license?!

But noooooo. The business of news comes first, this we must uphold shareholder value.

Of course we are. ABC just settled a lawsuit from Trump, paying $6M into his presidential library instead of fighting it out.

Every media outlet knows they are going to lose either by fiat or by attrition with the full arm of the US government behind Trump.

You think they'd do this if Harris won?

My understanding with glass is that it's still cheaper to make new glass than recycle it whereas metal the costs have just about evened out.

Last I read about high density plastics is that they aren't as strong after the first use. So they can't be reused as high density plastic and have to be mixed in with other plastics.

I can all but guarantee it's the latter. I have even noticed this at most Starbucks. They got rid of separate bins for recycling and just do trash/landfill now.

Fwiw, recycling doesn't work anyway, except for metal. But even then it's highly dependent on people cleaning the metal before recycling.

They specifically block the pirating communities. You can't access them from .world

I'm assuming their admin messages.

I left when they defederated pirating communities.

I fucking hate the "Average ER Wait Time" signs outside of hospitals. Most of the time, this measures time you wait between entering the door and your information being entered into the system. It rarely means the amount of time of wait between when you are triaged to when you are seen by a healthcare professional, which can be hours.

While I agree that the search engine has gone to shit, the problem I have with people who ask really simple questions is that they haven't done the bare minimum to ask for help.

Simple questions have fairly popular answers and even an enshittified Google search will return the correct result within their fucking AI.

If you have a simple question and the answers seem confusing, tell us why the answers are confusing. Don't just ask the question.

Being able to Google your question is an important skill, but so is asking a question in a forum. Since forum posts are at their very nature asynchronous, being able to do your own searches shows those who are trying to help you that you have the skills to read their responses and extrapolate to your situation and then take the appropriate action.

I provide a lot of free support on various Linux and developer forums. The sheer number of people who want me to hold their hand is too high.

History and tradition allow conservatively held states to fuck up liberal states. Unfortunately, the vice versa is not true.

Suck it.

- SCOTUS, but in lawyer speak and with 30 pages of nonsense justifications.

But he's still going to be racist and transphobic right?

Because I want to keep being racist and demand to see people's genitals.

I don't care if I have to pay $6 for eggs so long as I can still be an asshole.

You see, it's only a free and legitimate election when they win. If they lose, then it has to be fraud.

Does the mouth of the sponge come in tighter sizes?

I'm asking for a friend.
