  • I tried Evolution Mail iin an effort to find a leaner email client than Thunderbird and ended up ditching it because closing it leaves a bunch of Evolution processes running in the background for no good reason, and that don't sit right with me.

    Reading this makes me glad I did.

  • If this nonsense doesn't prove without the shadow of a doubt that the man is a pathological liar, I don't know what does.

    When my Dad had dementia, we were forced to institutionalize him well before he was talking as much BS as the POTUS. If Trump wasn't President but an ordinary old man, his relatives would be seriously thinking of having him locked up too right now.

  • The important bit here is that it's carbon they've taken in in the form of food. It's not fossil carbon.

    Sadly, most foods are grown with fertilizers, which ARE made from petroleum. So in effect, most foods are fossil carbon...

  • The National Parks.

    I guarantee you, for the amount you pay in your taxes for the upkeep of YOUR National Parks, you get orders of magnitude more beautiful land to enjoy than the acreage you could possibly purchase directly.

    Before Trump fucked it all up that is, of course...

  • Because it's bad value?Because it's bad for business when your customers hate you for replacing workers with AI to provide worse service?Because workers hate being replaced by AI?Because everybody hates slop?Because of the environmental impact?Because it turbo-charges big data theft, monetization and corporate surveillance?

  • I'm not sure who Mamdani is and what his proposals are in details. But I'll tell you what he has going for him: he's successful and he gets under the skin of the MAGA fascists more intensely than anybody else. Just for that, he has all my sympathy.

  • I don't think anybody who applied for a job as an ICE officer has a conscience.

  • You know who else was demoralized? The SS Einsatzgruppen who were ordered to carry out mass killings manually by firing at people in front of the pits they were to be buried in. Even for those psychopathic bastards, the horror had such an effect on their mental health that it was a major drive to implement the death camps with gas chambers and crematoriums to replace manual mass killings at the Wannsee conference.

    The Trump regime, following the Hitler playbook almost to a tee, has now reached the point where its own SS - ICE - is also having mental issues with what they're ordered to do. I guess automation of inhumane treatments in some form or other is next too...

  • Gerrymandering is nothing new.

    What will set Trump apart is that I'm pretty sure he'll deploy his ICE private paramilitary in blue states to discourage the "wrong" people from going out to vote, or deploy the military over some made-up emergency or other to cancel the elections altogether.

    Why do you think ICE just got $45bn? Yes, that's BILLIONS. Hell of a budget increase for a mere immigration enforcement agency isn't it?

    What do you think the LA rehearsal was for?

    There won't be fair mid-term elections. Mark my words.

  • We know Trump had exceptionally close ties to Epstein, no amount of gaslighting is going to swing that many people to forget that.

    You're deluded.

    The MAGA morons who voted him into office knew he was buddy-buddy with the dead pedo before the election. And they knew their racehorse is a convicted sexual predator. Yet the MAGA morons voted for him. Why would they turn on him now?

    The MAGA morons are morons. Their outrage won't survive the weekend. And then they'll get worked up against whatever their cult leader tells them to get worked up against.

  • MAGA people have zero principles, otherwise they wouldn't be MAGA.

  • The danger with this is, Trump may well pull some truly inhumane and unconstitutional stunt to deflect attention away from his friendship with the dead pedo...

  • uBlock Origin in expert mode, Librewolf's Resist Fingerprinting and Libredirect ensure that Google knows as little about me as possible - be it on DDG or anywhere else.

    Fuck Google - if this clarification was needed.

    Oh and yeah, fuck Google. Because it bears repeating.

  • At the end of the day, it's the Heritage Foundation. They're the ones pulling the strings of all those retarded MAGA puppets.

  • I'm not so sure, see. And the reason is: if people who are traditionally willing to accept low wages don't apply for jobs at Amazon fulfillment centers for fear of being kidnapped by the GestapoICE, then Bezos will have to start attracting people who aren't quite content with minimum wage.

    Not to mention, if Bezos' slave wage shops start being known as ICE hunting grounds, even the latter might want to give working there a pass altogether.

  • On the plus side - if there ever was a plus side to anything Trump does - this might drive up wages for the remaining employees, and/or to attract fresh new recruits to fill up the missing roles.

  • the worst parts was when he had an itch,

    Yeah. I don't struggle with the pain so much: I have it, but it's mostly like electric shocks, and somehow it feels like a TENS machine. So as long as it's not too intense or too long, I'm okay.

    But I really struggle with itching.

    I just lumped itching with phantom pain because it's easier to explain to people who don't know.
