They do it every time there’s a president.

If you’re really willing to take a risk, you can do it with your teeth. I wouldn’t recommend doing this, but I would recommend telling these people it’s “manly” to do so.

I’m just some random person on the internet, but shouldn’t their fire system be non-water based if they’re working with water reactive chemicals. This plus the sprinkler failing makes me think this was totally preventable and likely due to negligence, probably to save money if I had to guess.

I would assume most bosses would be more upset you’re just looking at memes at work, but whatever.

The Supreme Court decided you can even buy bump stocks!

It’s funny that no conservatives ever mention that Trump passed more gun control laws than Biden.

Many/most people in Israel have some or a large amount of European ancestry, and are generally considered white. This is probably especially true for American ones. Meanwhile Lebanese people do not really have any large connection to European ancestry.

Evil people also eat food, just like you do. Is that why they’re evil? Obviously not. The thing that makes them evil is their motives.

Fighting someone to help people and fighting someone to oppress someone are both fighting, but one is for good and one is for evil.

Hydro causes a whole host of other issues though. It requires changing the environment in a very direct way. There are methods to reduce the issues, like fish ladders and things like that, but it’s an immediate shift of an area from a running river to essentially a lake with a waterfall.

It does have a rate though. Each click is random, but overall they’re at a predictable rate. Still, it wouldn’t be useful for music really. I could see someone trying to make it happen though. I’ve heard of dumber things.

Posting an extra comment to say nuclear waste is not an issue either. Here’s two good videos on the topic that show through example how much it isn’t an issue.

Nuclear is expensive because we’ve made it expensive. The most expensive part is bureaucracy. Running nuclear plants is cheap. Even still, the price of nuclear around the world is competitive. If you scroll down to the regional studies, nuclear looks even better. In every place except the US that has nuclear, nuclear is the second cheapest, with large-scale PV the only one higher (which doesn’t price in solutions to provide baseline power, which nuclear has built in). The US has (purposefully) made nuclear appear expensive because laws have been paid for by dirty oil companies.

Nuclear is also one of the safest and cleanest energy sources. If you include negative externalities into the cost (which is never done but should be) nuclear is amazing.

It isn’t uncommon for a presidential candidate to meet with foreign leaders to discuss what may happen after they’re elected. In the case of Ukraine, they need to know what to expect in the event Trump is elected. They’re fighting a war, and it’d be a really bad idea to continue in ignorance.

He’s done plenty of bad and illegal things, but this is fairly normal.

People die to shootings: “People have died! Nows not the time for politics.”

I don’t like that logic there, and this is exactly the same. It’s always the time for politics, because when people are engaged is the best time to change their minds.

I would say the big turning point would be around 2001.

Yep. Just look at Bioware. BG3 would have been theirs if they didn’t go the action game route. In the past they made BG and SWTOR, but then they made DA: Origins (not an action game, but moving that direction) and then Mass Effect. At that point they never went back from that direction. They’ve been successful most of the time, but I feel it can only last so long, because it isn’t really made for anyone anymore. I think we can see that now.

Just a couple of questions. You aren’t an expert in the field of constitutional law, correct? If not, do you presume you know more than experts do? If so, do you agree that not all your peers through history agree with your stance?

I’m not stating one opinion or the other. I’m not an expert, nor have I claimed to be. I’m pointing out that you keep implying there’s no way someone can disagree. However, it has been a topic of disagreement of experts for literally hundreds of years. If it was clear this wouldn’t be the case. You seem to imply that they’re wrong for this. If you want to know the reasons, look for their arguments, not random Lemmy users. Again, Judicial Review is the term to search for. There’s hundreds of years of debate for you to catch up on.

The other person commenting linked this, which you subsequently ignored and asked for more evidence (sea-lioning). If you cared to actually engage, maybe I would. Instead you’re ignoring what others say because you only want to read what you have to say.

Edit: I want to add, there’s plenty of scholars who hold the same opinion as you, and I potentially do too. However, I recognize that many people more knowledgeable on the subject than myself do not agree with that stance. If this is true then it’s clearly not particularly clearly defined.

If it was straightforward there wouldn’t be several hundred years of debate over it. I’m glad you’re so intelligent that you can see past all the issues others have noticed, but no one else is that lucky. My advice for you is to get a degree in constitutional law (it should be easy for you) and solve this issue once and for all for all of us. It’d save us a lot of time.

The whole intro part didn’t add anything anyway, so it just made the viewing experience worse for no reason. That was frustrating. Still, every debate should be like that one.

Stop sea-lioning. You don’t get to just ignore what someone provides you and ask for more proof. Fuck off.
