just when you are sure this article is going to fluff out on you, it doesn’t.

But how does AI tell when someone is most likely lying? They’re smiling like an American.

I was oddly surprised at how I connected with this article. a useful read in a defining epoch.

branding is important, yo!

these days old onion articles are prophecy and new onion articles cant even give me a raised eyebrow.

this is/does both.

someone genuinely interested for intellectual reasons would likely not fall for it. I would imagine that a non-trivial percentage of “antiquity enjoyers” are very light on history substance and heavy on history feelz.

once the appropriate brain tickles have been pushed into their heads their “history substance” feed content becomes decidedly propagandized.

Windows NT vs. Unix: A design comparison

edit: back. a really enjoyable read. loved the POV as unix guy poking at NT. g’night for real now, lemmy.

unqualified internet rando comment…

avoiding responsibility is a coping mechanism as well as a symptom for a host of significant, but treatable, physiological psychological issues. couple this with a demonstrated history of physical violence (I am trusting the state on this one) makes this difficult.

my own experience suggests to me that you may want to ensure that your brother is consistently seeing a qualified professional and an effective medication regime is in place, being followed to the letter and has demonstrated positive results before you reengage. without 3rd party qualified professional help things are not likely to get better and may get worse.

I am sorry you, your brother and those around this situation are hurting. please stay safe.

edit: emphasis on word and autocorrect.

oh, god… I had forgotten this little slice of insanity. republican “flood the field with shit” tactics at their best - its impossible to keep track of it all.

simple solution…?

1. disregard what they say
2. watch what they do
3. vote against an “r” till the end of time.

make the sobs form a new party to try and escape the stench of the gops rotting carcass.

yeah, 'twas a poor joke - not directed at the original commenter.

apprently my channeling of the late steve irwin and his wildlife observation of a republican conservative voter in its natural environment needs severe work, is likely critically flawed and will be retired.

thanks for the wellness check :-)

crikey! here we have a red capped mole rat and aint it a beaut! this little guy is engaged in its favorite pastime - unconfined rage at the “other” followed by some political self-immolation. we’ll leave this one to do its thing and trek on, mate.

edit: poor attempt at channeling the late steve irwin observing a republican voter in its natural habitat. undercooked and will be retired. :-/

AIPAC has entered the chat

money is the grease that slides those juicy votes out of the crevices of the american electorate, especially in the primaries and extra especially if you have a special interest laser dot on your forehead.

having said that, yes… go vote.

gotta normalize this garbage. in a generation or three no one will really remember a time when it was not this.

oceania has always been at war with eurasia.

I think he’s the type of executive any state would want. he’s an ideal “for the now” governor and I am personally thankful we had him while I was in NC. I know others who will miss him also.

edit to say: I have family in AL who I dont talk with because of <insert shitty political opinion here>. I wish you the best AL and you personally, trev.

hI there. I wasnt making a comment on the article or interpreting what he said. I was giving anecdotal, localized info for those who may want it. not sure why you read anything else into it.

he’s a southern gov in a southern state who campaigns on and follows through on bill vetos targeting marginalized goups, supporting and expanding the ACA, funding youth crime diversion programs, etc, etc, etc. so yes, “surprisingly progressive” in a state with a supermajority republican legislature.

NC is a state in transition, but its slow dirty work dragging this state forward. don’t know where you are, but if its the southern US I am interested in hearing why you disagree with the cooper assessment.

edit: typo; clarify

decent messaging from a suprisingly progressive and quality southern governor.

I am in this general area. if NCs votes go to kamala it really is over - trump had better be on a flight to russia.

I was in NC when Obama took the state in 2008 so I saw the state vibe. this go around friends there tell me, while not as “joyful” as for obama, the “blue NC vote” seems pretty resolute in showing up.

so… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

stay safe and you do you. its one of the fundamental rights we are trying to protect - the right for each of us to be safe from these weirdos in our own minds and bodies.

it helps that our priorities appear to align.

every day we move closer to president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. the prophecy reveals itself.

Haley also told Brennan she hasn’t been asked to campaign for Trump and isn’t advising him or his campaign, but she remains “on standby.”

and there you have it. happy to be his dishrag - pulled out and put away as needed.

I understand your point here, but the “both sides bad” really loses the plot when the death, destruction and suffering by the most innocent is astronomically asymmetrical.

at this juncture I don’t give a shit if every combatant is the devil himself. stop the flow of kid killing weaponry and get appropriate humanitarian aid in.

20fucking24 and we still cannot pull our thumbs out of our collective asses, put the homicidal money machine into neutral and stop mowing down kids. fuck us all, every goddamn one of us.

brutalist take, but likely the correct one :-(
