Agreed. The idea that you owe people your life is pretty nuts. At the end of the day, you can be robbed of everything, including your life. But it’s the one thing you’re not allowed to end. In a perfect world I do think that people who are suicidal should both:

(a) have to discuss their suicide with a trained professional. What does this look like? Idk. But probably along the lines of “are you capable of healing / can we heal what is causing these thoughts or no?”

(b) be able to get professional euthanasia. No pain, someone to be there with them through the process. Not just a sterile room where you go to die, but a place you are going to leave your pain behind and move on

If there is an afterlife, hopefully they find peace there.

While I agree with the sentiment, you’re comparing the New York State Education system with two private for-profit Ivy League colleges. Every for profit Ivy League college will capitulate. The bigger question is if other State Education departments turn down federal funding in the interest of better serving the public

Here’s hoping they can find all the backdoors that Big Balls or whatever put into all the government software to funnel money or accelerate the collapse or whatever if/when sane people once again are in control.

Ortiz then removed the 18.5 percent gratuity that was automatically included, which the receipt states can be done if the customer alerts staff.

Fuck that. If you write a racist message, you should be charged double gratuity

Unfortunately I’m sure the credit card company wouldn’t give a shit and would issue a chargeback

Not op but pretty much everything I wear is just a plain color clothing item that looks ok and feels comfortable/fits well. It’s cool to focus on fashion, but for me that ends if you’re covering yourself in industry brands, supporting fast fashion/dumb luxury, or placing people above or below each other based on the perceived value of the cloth and metal they choose to wrap themselves in

Either that or since concealed carry is legal in a ton of states just start firing blindly in every direction and then basically everything you said

Yeah with their recent grant it looks like it’s the next priority, that will be pretty neat:

While the US pledged limited assistance

Wonder what that fucking heinous signal conversation looked like

I don’t think that’s a 750 ml, it’s a pretty small bottle relative to the ramen packets. I think that’s actually just a weirdly shaped pint bottle in the second photo

Wdym this is the party of traditional family values

Yeah as someone who deleted my Facebook and Twitter accounts years ago, and only uses Lemmy now, the people who are most concerned with how I can exist without said accounts are my MAGA family members. They would love the sort of black mirror style “everybody rate each other” system

Ah yes, the Sinclair “This is extremely dangerous to our democracy” foreshadowing

Even after losing 50% of their value their market cap is still ~750 billion. They’re still valued at nearly 3x what Toyota is, and leagues above any other auto manufacturer. Their investors won’t do anything until they lose way more value, sadly.

Yes. That’s the joke. I’m unsure how the burning terminator dying with a thumbs up wasn’t clear enough that there is obviously more to this than just “security concerns”

Honestly this sounds like a veteran MS dev who wanted to ensure he had a good ISO build of windows to install without AI shit down the line after he retired. Props to whatever MS dev (or devs) made this happen

I hate this vehemently but you’re getting an upvote

Agreed, except for one point. It’s an oligarchy. Our “dictator” was just selling cars on the White House lawn. Capitalism won to get to it’s late stages, happy to let racist hatred and russian influence fester for continued capital self-interest

Not to worry, “some cited security concerns.” We’re all set
