I thought you were saying they were ineffective at enacting their agenda because they didn’t use rescission packages.

If we’re talking about what you just said I have no quarrel.

I’m with you there but you could not have got even a simple majority of elected representatives to agree to that. It would have to be something that Democrats broadly support.

Well a rescission package can only be used to cut spending, so it couldn’t have been used by the Democrats to pass new spending.

What do you think they should have used it to cut?

The only differences I can think of is not chickening out on the tariffs and forcing the interest rate lower to kick off runaway inflation.

I thought 98 < 100

No, that’s su, sudo is bounded by the command that calls it.

Sudo gives root privileges: https://linux.die.net/man/8/sudo

Fuck 2018, take me to 2026 when the year of the Linux desktop empowers us to run sudo impeach now

Sounds like Ashley Barrett

What are you talking about?

It’s an investigation with interviews and reporters. They have quotes from government officials and everything. It’s not like The Intercept is an AI mill, they aren’t even the only paper doing journalism on this story:

Fuck off, imprisonment for being trans is destructive and outright evil, so is bombing prisoners.

When lead combines with acid it creates lead acetate which interacts with the sugar receptors in the mouth. I’m not sure why, I think the molecules just happen to have a similar shape.

EDIT: after looking at the molecule for lead acetate, it appears to resemble two simple carbohydrates connected by an atom of lead, so I’d imagine the receptor sees the outside and assumes it’s something sweet.

I don’t understand how that’s blame, it’s a natural outcome. If I said ‘carrying a nestle water bottle has the effect of promoting the brand, even if you didn’t pay for it’ that doesn’t mean I’m blaming people for drinking water, it’s just an observation about the power of branding.

I’m not blaming anyone, I’m just investing my energies in other things. I have plans for after she dies, but as long as she can draw a profit form the brand I would personally rather boycott it.

Same, it was a good instance.

I used to be of that opinion, but after a series of conversations about it I came around to the idea that any engagement, even non-commercial, has the effect of promoting the brand.

I’m just waiting for her to die so we can do like Lovecraft and enjoy the books while hating the author.
