That was their quick response, of course. Washington DC is “the swamp” which I guess is why Swamp Baboon is so eager to go back there.

The guy under indictments for a multitude of corrupt acts is still going on about “the swamp”?

When was the last time people were in doubt about that? Conservatives have been trying to pass laws that affect everyone based on their confused religious moralism for decades. Things like “blue laws” (banning sales of alcohol on Sunday) are connected to Christians trying to impose their religious ideas on people. Or the idea that someone’s testimony or oath can’t be believed if not sworn on a bible.

Yes, I can hear them. Usually it’s not a problem but I have had 1-2 power adapters that annoyed me.

Alcoholism isn’t required for drinking liquor. It’s optional.

I went through a chocolate period and that was fun. At this point, uh, buying liquor. Not even the expensive stuff now though.

He has a good point. Specifying precisely what the program does is the actual difficult part and won’t be done properly by this current LLM system since it’s creating something new and requires actual thought and understanding.

We’ll just say ‘shitted up’ from now on.

I don’t really like the sweet breakfast pastry concept. I guess waffles, preferable cornmeal or Belgian waffles. I’d much rather have a breakfast burrito with green chile or huevos rancheros though.

I knew a 3/4 deaf girl who had learned ASL, who had a bf who was fully deaf from birth… he did send her videos of himself signing.

Reddit claims they didn’t and don’t have to.

I recall beehaw having some good communities when I was first on Lemmy this summer, but I haven’t seen much from there on Kbin or the lemmies I use - presumably because beehaw defederated for whatever reason. If you’re not going to be connected to the largest instances anyway, what’s the difference?

Sure, having a standalone forum is a legitimate thing to do, like it always has been since the start of the internet. Seems like it would be harder to grow the site without the network effect of the rest of Lemmy though.

No. They contain mercury and electronics and are typically not recyclable. They may be recyclable, but probably not curbside, and are considered hazardous waste. See https://www.epa.gov/mercury/recycling-and-disposal-cfls-and-other-bulbs-contain-mercury

Just another hated boss. Not too uncommon. I’m sure plenty of people who work for him don’t like him either. SpaceX does get plenty of positive recognition and feedback, too.

Right, I agree. The progressive side of the US is not fairly represented by Democrats nationally.

A lot of leftists (and I hardly ever saw it before coming on Lemmy) use ‘Liberal’ to mean Classic or Neo Liberal - basically a synonym of capitalist… That’s not at all what it means in American politics, where it means the opposite of Conservative. If we used that definition, Conservatives would be called Liberals as well as Liberals being Liberals, which obviously makes no sense for US lingo. However, they both are Liberals in the neo/classic sense as most US Liberals aren’t calling for communism.

You know what the word ‘mostly’ means, right?

I don’t really feel the need to use them to express myself. I try to use words instead :-)

“Axis of evil” was a GWB and Cheney thing. I don’t think Obama ever used the term.
