“As we predicted and as I said to all of you, weeks before the election, if Donald Trump is elected it will change the dynamic of the Russian war on Ukraine, and we’re seeing that happen,” Johnson told reporters, according to The Hill.

“So, it is not the place of Joe Biden to make that decision now, we have a newly elected president and we’re going to wait and take the new commander in chief’s direction on all that so I don’t expect any Ukraine funding to come up now,” he added.

I am so tired of hearing brain rotted ghouls using this argument. Obama couldn’t appoint supreme court justices because he was leaving office either. Americans need the power to recall elected officials and so do all the states that don’t have that right for their reps.

Would you like me to edit my comment to say “why do some conspiracy theories…”?

Enlightenment: calling meetings yourself because nothing you do matters and getting paid to listen to assholes talk isn’t the worst way to pay rent.

Fake moon landing, aliens built the pyramids why do conspiracy theories insist on robbing humans of their monumental achievements. My guess is that people who create and share conspiracies like those are too dumb to realize that other people have different knowledge than they do.

Jeez, you don’t need the gun. I would have come willingly if you’d mentioned the numbers stations. Watching some boring Netflix movie kinda sounded lame anyway. Here’s an edible, where are your headphones?

Eh, technical merit is only one of many factors that determine what language is the “best”. Best is inherently a subjective assessment. Rust’s safety and performance is the conceptual bible rustacians use to justify thier faith.

I also know religious people who have written books about their faith too (my uncle is a preacher and my ex-spouse was getting their doctorate in theology). Rust has the same reality-blind, proselytizing zealots.

The needs of the project being planning and the technical abilities of the developers building it are more important that what language is superior.

I like rust. I own a physical copy of the book and donated money to the rust foundation. I have written a few utilities and programs in rust. The runtime performance and safety is paid for in dev time. I would argue that for most software projects, especially small ones, Rust adds too much complexity for maintainability and ease of development.

Omg, so many opportunities for evil:

• retrieve earplugs from purse, put them in, press the button, hand the staff a $5 cash tip and a pair of earplugs.
• loiter outside offering pairs of earplugs to anyone entering the business
• call the business, pose as a vendor so I get transferred to the manager, and play a recording of the sound.
• leave fake reviews claiming the employees are on a covert malicious compliance strike and to show solidarity everyone should push no-tip.
• before hitting the button ask to speak to the manager and push no tip while making eye contact with them.

The real problem is the employee who didn’t create the policy would generally be the person subjected to any mischief so it’d lose its fun about the time the manager barred me from coming back the fourth time I no-tip stared them down.

I know religious people who could not explain their faith so specifically.

Is it really just old men saying stuff should remain in C/C++ to preserve their nostalgia? What a bunch of petty bullsh!t.

Oh, so that’s where the creator of ReiserFS got the idea.

Honestly, I think it might be a deal breaker for me in November. I’m willing to put up with a lot of meat-brained nonsense, but dead children so out soldiers can have an easier commute to kill more is a nonstarter.

If I do decide not to vote in a few months, and not voting gives Trump the presidency, it’s what we deserve.

How hard is it to field a presidential candidate that is not a senior citizen and who doesn’t wish to remain allies with countries engaged in genocide?
