  • They can ping all phones that connect to a transmission tower. If you can connect to it, they can connect to you - and honestly, it's a safety thing, much like a public tsunami warning siren. Calm your tits.

  • "we reached out to Lt. Christina Silva for comment but she is currently on administrative leave following this incident"

    /s (but possible, given the current US administration)

  • Only the dumb cunts. We're still the Millennial generation and are far removed from the Xers and Boomers - we've been fucked over by all this too and majority of us still got a decent education (even at cost and with huge fees) and a very small minority are trolls

  • ICE and Border Patrol agents killed two people in Minnesota, the state Omar represents: Renée Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, both of whose executions were captured on video.

    They've killed many more USians than just these two white ones (not saying that to diminish their killings but to point out that it only ever seems important when it's white folks.

  • Maybe every 8 minutes because thats how long Renee Good was alive between being shot and when ICE finally allowed her to be seen by medical professionals.

  • This also explains why you can sing songs without actually hearing or understanding the lyrics e.g. all the right-leaning folks who were shocked RATM were singing political songs, or anyone who sings anything in a language they don't know (which, as a former choir singer, was common)

  • Ah the old reversearoo. Nolnah's Razor?

  • I think Kamala would be a okay President (as in, "not a fucking idiot" ), however she's still a corporate pawn, Israeli shill and centre right like most other Dems who's main selling point is "not Trump". There are few good options within the whole party who actually support social agendas and not whatever a company's lobbyists or Zionists are paying them to support.

    But more crucially, she's a woman, and not white and for 50% of the voting population (i.e. the ones who actually get off the couch to go vote), their racism and misogyny is more than enough reason to not vote for her - in fact, they'd relish in not doing so as it supports their fundamental principles of being a cunt.

  • It's not means tested at all, it is however means funded if that's what you were meaning

  • Mine says "McLovin"

  • Seeing as both the high profile murders by ICE recently were committed by asshats agents who had been on the job for the better part of a decade, I would be tempted to say it's not the new recruits (unless their actions are what the "defective" training is supposed to actually be - murder being a justified option)

  • Yes, that turns it from a mental breakdown to cruelty.

    Maybe mum has more underlying issues.

  • This is both good and sucky for everyone. I feel for the family - glad for them to have some conclusion, but also sad for them to find out she just left.

    We don't know what the mum went on to do. Whether she just noped out and lived by herself, or even if she had another family. Many unanswered questions and all anyone is left with is more unanswered questions and more undeserved pain for this family.

    All I'll say, as a father of a couple of kids, is well done to the dad for holding them all together. I hope the mother will one day give them all the closure they deserve but I have a sneaking suspicion that all this will lead to is feelings of abandonment rather than loss.

  • Asking for a friend?

  • After kinda stopping Just Cause 3 (just got same-y after getting the jetpack and taking over most of the world) but barely done any of the missions I decided to finally start Hollow Knight. Loved it but I can already tell it's going to be challenging (I've got to the Fungal Wastes) and I just don't have the patience to get gud enough to finish it. But it scratched my metroidvania itch. I wanted a more narrative have and as I've recently upgraded to a 9070xt and 5k2k (G75f in case anyone was wondering), so I started playing The Longest Journey! HD modded version but it's still a 25yo game so can run on a potato. Seems good so far.

  • As a South Australian government salaried employee, that's basically everyone in my Department

  • Of course they do, it falls under the guise of American exceptionalism propaganda

  • There's a big difference between the two.

    You can work with a stable dictator. You know what's coming or what to expect. You know where they'll push their weight around and that it was a highly calculated move based on shrewd political acumen.

    With an unstable one, you get tariffs imposed, cancelled, reimposed, reduced because of flattery, accusations, insults and the smell of shit in the air.

  • Staying alive just to piss off the Man is a legitimate strategy
