$90 trillion great wealth transfer. As if that money is going into the hands of people who aren’t already obscenely wealthy to begin with.

This is literally because the US does not officially recognize Palestine as a sovereign state. If they were to call it Palestine, they would be undermining the government’s stance. That doesn’t mean they agree with it, in fact her slipping on it could be a sign she personally disagrees with the government’s stance. However the feds have never formally recognized it as a state and for them to do so publicly would put their jobs in jeopardy.

Not agreeing with any of it, just wanted to make sure the reason this is happening is clear.

10 km/h is remarkably slow. How exactly is a bike without a speedometer not supposed to exceed that?

The article doesn’t implicate cars as the main reason, or even necessarily indirectly, it does mention climate change which can be linked with cars but I think it’s secondary to the abundant use of pesticides and general attempts to reduce bug populations than cars themselves.

That being said, fuck cars.

Hey, if you understand Python it makes sense. If you’ve used the PIL before it makes even more sense. If you don’t understand Python, you should probably start by understanding Python.

What do you mean? You don’t write your email in your IDE and lint it before copy/pasting it into Outlook (or email client of choice)?

I have a recommendation, buy a personal laptop that isn’t tied to your company.

If you want to build a background removal tool from scratch that’s a project of its own. This shows you how to very simply remove a background with a pre-existing tool that other people have spent the many hours to get functional so you can do the five-minute tutorial.

It’s not the Arch Linux way, it’s more like the Ubuntu way.

The stickers have been prone to theft, so they don’t like to replace them very often. They’re saving some time and money so you don’t have to.

Not to mention they’re tremendously dangerous for everyone who isn’t inside. The fear of dying in a car crash meets the illusion of safety, when it’s being forced to ride or drive in a car that puts your safety at risk to begin with.

12 years ago, talking about piracy isn’t incriminating so why do the big movie companies need their info? So they can potentially intimidate them for more info they potentially don’t have?

The Handmaid’s Tale sounds practically prophetic with some of this stuff. I guess the peeps could be heard back in the 80s for some of these “Christian nationalist” groups.

Let’s call it what it is, they take Christianity and make it their calling card but follow very few, if any, of the actual calls or teachings of Christ. They want to attach to something which has meaning to validate and give authenticity to a meaningless, and destructive, endeavor.

Hmmm maybe if the future of the nation’s infrastructure thought about limiting climate change instead of contributing to it…
