Banning blatant slurs or directly offensive names is understandable, but unless Harriet means something really offensive there then it is just silly to have that restriction.

The article points out that it is mostly to conform with language structure, but that is still a bit heavy handed.

Valid!

The ability to change it later is also valid!

Valid if you aren’t running dynamic sequel without sanitizing your inputs!

Even if every employee was equally competent, decision making needs to be consolidated enough that it can be decisive and shared throughout large companies. Complex systems that need to change rapidly gain no benefit from having too many people wanting to make decisions, you only need most of them to be competent enough to complete the work based on the decisions of a small group or the work will end up getting too convoluted and unmaintainable.

There really isn’t a benefit to have everyone understand all of the parts of a large and complex system, if they only have time to work on a portion or to facilitate decisions that take into account the knowledge of the people in the different parts.

All names are valid…

He should have all the justices arrested and put in Gitmo indefinitely, then jam 6 Dem justices to the court and have them undo all the shitty decisions over the last two decades. Arrest enough senators and house memebers to pass decent legislation and ban Trump from being eligible. Then arrest Teump.and have him put to death for treason. Arrest the rest of the Jan 6th insurrectionists and throw them in Gitmo too.

Then put the structures in place to cover the things that let the Republicans set up a dicatorship so we can have a democracy again.

But no, he will.play fair and shoot himself in the dick so that the slide into fascism continues.

That’s a good idea, I’ĺl leave myself a note to remember!

The only smartphones I have used are androids and know for sure that after the call goes to voicemail you can click on the call for more options and and block the number. Not sure if it gives the option during the call unless it suspects it is spam. I just double checked on a number that wasn’t in my contacts.

May not be available on every model, but every one I have owned had the block option.

This is me if I don’t write down the list.

“It’s just 3 things!”

“I’m gonna write it down anyway.” - me

Forgets list at home.

Did you lnow that most phones make it easy to block numbers?

Payment processors shouldn’t be acting as a moral authority.

Gimme back my crystal ball!

The frame rusted out where the leaf spring shackle attached, and there’s no real way to fix that.

There is always a solution that involves welding, but unless someone is able to do it themselves odds are it would be far more expensive than finding another used vehicle in better shape.

The dissent on the “it’s a gratuity, not a bribe lol” decision shows that ambiguity isn’t even necessary. Same with the bump stocks ruling. And seceral before that.

The conservatives will pretend there is ambiguity and write pages of rambling pseudo logic no matter how clear the law is.

Incarcerating them is a benefit for multiple terrible reasons!

• Cheap, state subsidized labor.
• Gets undesirables out of public spaces so fragile people don’t have to acknowledge their existence.
• Gives those in power ammunition in the form of incarceration rates for riling up the masses about ‘crime’.
• Gives undesirables a history of incarceration so they can be denied other things if they somehow get out of their situation.
• Gives undesirables a history of incarceration so they can be an easy suspect for criminal activity.

The goal is for regulations to be held up via congressional deadlock by the obstructionist party. Can’t make a good or bad decision if you can’t make a decision at all.

Removing the filibuster so those things can be accomplished even if the Republicans have 41 Senators will also be necessary. That is what led to the minor improvements in the ACA instead of actually implementing something better like single payer healthcare.

Dred Scott is the exception that proves the rule.

At a far higher rate than actually employing them at the median income would be as well.

the median state spent $64,865 per prisoner for the year.

The only reason that companies want prison labor is because it is cheap for them since the taxpayers are subsidizing the labor costs.

Overall it would be cheaper for states to just pay the homeless the median income than to incarcerate them. A lower rate that could be described as a basic income that is implemented universally would go pretty far in both increasing the opportunities for the homeless to afford housing and reduce the chance of people from becoming homeless.

I would be fine with that if it was free and didn’t reply the ads if I stop and resume.

If I am paying money, then ads are unacceptable.
