They never had a debate even though there were a couple candidates running. Biden has been mentally troubled for the last 9 months or so. It was party hubris that led to this crisis.

Honor of Kings is pretty good. Just ignore all the contests. You always start at the same ability as everyone else.

Democrats have always been imperialists with a smile (vs republicans), but their hubris of letting a guy who's aging poorly act as the figurehead is why Gen Z has become disillusioned.

Probably wherever there are domestic agents.

Yeah i think it's great. Only works 2 days for me though. Not the 3-4 days advertised. I'm not complaining though I'll never use deodorant sticks again.

At some point decades from now maybe? I still think nuclear and fusion research are important for human civilization, I just think it's stupid to waste money on building power plants using nuclear technology in its current state.

Ammonia believe it or not.

The reason we don't build nuclear power plants anymore (including small modular), is because they're insanely expensive, produce only a small amount of power compared to you can produce with renewables, and always come with cost overruns. Nuclear power is the techsploitation of of tbe 60's and 70's. Most governments look at the economics now and realize they can do solar plus storage for a fraction of the immediate and long term cost.

Curious if OP keeps a budget, log of his spending.

Posting nudes is not cheating. Not telling your partner you're posting nudes is cheating.

 

There was a post from a mass media site the other day saying Turkey was approving Sweden to join NATO. This turned out to be a bit of wishful thinking.

 

It will be interesting to see more traditional BB forum software interconnect with other networks. All the gaming forums that will be able to cross post...

 

Just finished it. I like this show the comedy is pretty amazing and also it gets pretty emotional too without too much backstory. I did like the more backstory of the demons in seasons 2 and 3. I thought the humanizing of them gave an interesting perspective.

Looking forward to season 5, does anyone know the release date?

 

I'm just curious for the new or existing people? Lemmy.ml has taken a hard turn to the right since the reddit exodus. There's been a lot of pro-imperialist propaganda being posted on world news, and a lot less diversity of opinion. It feels more neoliberal and neo-con to me.

Does anyone want to share what their political leanings are?

I'll start; I'm anti-imperialist pro-state regulated capitalism. I believe we should have usage based taxes (toll roads, carbon tax) and luxury taxes, and I disagree with wealth taxes for people with less than $250 million. The state should spend more money on consumer protection in all industries (environment, health, finance, etc.) I believe in multipolarity vs. US hegemony.

 

I see like reddit this community is mostly western mainstream media news sources.

Unlike reddit this site doesn't have to ban alternative news sources or alternative opinions. Most people get their news from search engines that feature western mainstream media news sources.

I would like to help create a sticky thread that lists out all the available English media news sources and categorize them based on their geography and political ideology. I think this would help people discover new sources of news, while keeping in mind the underlying intent of how news is being reported.
