His Trumpcoin scam is one rugpull away from being converted to actual useful money.
Jesus fucking Christ, what is going on lately with people just buckling under the slightest amount of pressure from Trump? Fight back you goddamn pussies.
Meanwhile, Trump Admin requested the voter records for San Francisco county. Now I wonder why he would want that? 🤔
The ultimate techbro venn diagram.
Keep up that enthusiasm. I'm sure it'll look great when you explain that you did it for the money when you're on trial for crimes against humanity.
When sanity was restored, we hanged the Nazis. Don't think ICE will be any different when the Trump regime falls. "Just following orders" or "I needed to feed my family" are not valid excuses.
Crypto is still a scam.
I just had this experience the other day. Flying SFO to BOS and it was like the security people didn't even care. Leave everything in your bags, leave your shoes on, leave your belt on. The only thing they asked was empty your pockets, and it could all go in one bin. I thought that finally TSA was getting a bit better about not being such pricks about every little thing.
And then on my return flight, I got pulled out of the security line three times. Once for a mistake printed on my boarding pass (not my fault, but I had to get it corrected at the service kiosk anyway), once for my CPAP machine that I left in my carry on bag (which is exactly how I did it in SFO and they didn't give a shit), and once a bottle of liquid that was 8.5oz (limit is 8.4oz), so they made me pour out 0.1oz of fucking liquid.
They yelled at me all three times and said that I should know the rules by now, but none of those things came up during my first flight. The rules change literally every time I fly somewhere, so there's no point in memorizing them anymore. There are the "hard" rules which are sometimes not enforced and then there are the "soft" rules that seem to vary from airport to airport, or even individual TSA agents having a bad day or going on a power trip or something. I hate it.
President of Peace lmao.
I will never not upvote this wherever I see it on Lemmy. Godspeed.
You make a great point. My own counter to that would be that not every consequence needs to come directly from the courts. People are more than capable of making up their minds about it with just the testimony from the accusers and then acting on that information accordingly, we just didn't. That doesn't seem to be OP's principal argument, though.
Could someone just make, like, Raunchy Mastercard and just process payments from everyone including all the porn and weird shit that the other mainstream companies don't want? It seems like the payment processors being puritanical dipshits is a weakness that could be exploited by an enterprising competitor.
But then again, we're talking about a natural monopoly that has been in place for decades at this point. I wouldn't expect them to exactly play fair.
With literally one change, a national-level replacement of FPTP with any other ranked choice voting system (there are plenty to choose from) would make 3rd parties not only viable, but competitive. We would no longer be required to settle for the lesser of two evils, and so the evil party and the greater evil party will absolutely do everything in their power to avoid making that change.
