he gave them to people that the fbi said shouldn't have them. scotus said he could do anything officially he wants. so why would he bother with a screening process? he's going to give them to whoever he wants to anyway.

I honestly didn't think it was the meat. the only unique topping on that sandwich is the onions which aren't used for anything else as an uncooked item. if it was the meat I think more people would have gotten sick.

let's hope so.

somebody used my email address to order stuff from temu. the only reason I know about this is because paypal sent me a notice saying they were tracking my order.

fortunately for me, my paypal information (other than my email) wasn't breached. after I notified paypal they told me they would monitor my account for suspicious activity and they hadn't noticed any. and as it turns out neither was my email. I've got 2fa turned on and never got a suspicious notification.

if it's that easy to use any email to order stuff these companies are showing they have no security and need to go.

the profanity flies frequently at my place of work. we do give writeups if our employees are saying that in front of customers.

except for me, because I don't curse (out loud). in fact if I start doing it everyone around me would actually be worried if I was okay.

any images I upload are either already found online or if they are images I took scrubbed of location information in the metadata plus I don't put my face online. my face is on my fb page and a few pictures have my face in them but as far as I'm aware there's less than 10 pictures of my face online.

as a kentucky resident he won't be missed. he has been an active part of making the state worse.

yes. next question.

all of these polling aggregation sites regardless of the quality of the the poll will include the data in their forecasts. how many poison pills do you have to put in the water supply before the entire thing is poisoned?

these operatives figured out well before the eggheads who refuse to question or change their methods that by flooding the zone with shit polls, they not only generate buzz for the results of the poll but they are poll by poll changing the reality that the lazy, access political media will breathlessly SCREAM IN ABSOLUTE TERROR that trump is gaining on harris. these junk polls are simply a method of simultaneous voter suppression and boosting on a race probably only really close in 3 states.

these people are all a galaxy wide and a half micron deep. just brush them lightly and they bleed profusely.

the correct answer is there should be no tips and those workers should be paid the same amount as every other worker.

I honestly don't think twitter will ever go away until all of a majority of all major sports teams and leagues, a majority of legislative body members, and major news and wire services have a sustained and active presence on bsky. it right now is literally coasting on everything that made it useful pre 2022 and every stupid fucking thing elon has done to make the twitter experience worse hasn't done enough to cause a critical mass of people to jump.

once you see major popular twitter accounts like rex chapman, mark hamill, taylor swift and the like (and I say this not because of their politics but because of their massive follower base) regularly post on bsky you can probably start closing the book on twitter.

probably not.

unless the planet is water all the way down, I don't think it's possible to have life or even submerged landmasses that don't have the chemical elements that can create salts. dead things would dissolve in the water and chemicals in rocks will leach into water over time.

now if this water planet is far enough away from the sun to freeze, sure. the frozen ice should be all fresh. I'm not aware of any salts that stay in frozen water ice. the stuff underneath the frozen stuff most definitely will be salty.

not a chemist or chemistry major but I'm using the word "salts" deliberately. there's more types of salt than NaCl.

 

... in other words gaetz and company are admitting (knowingly or unwittingly) that

  • trump is an insurrecionist
  • trump is very likely to lose at the supreme court in his colorado 14th amendment appeal hearing
  • that the plain text reading of section 3 of the 14th amendment says congress can waive the condition (but only if 2/3 of both houses agree to waive the condition)

the funny thing is how when this passes the house, it won't be anywhere close to the 290 they need but they'll try to act as though it's binding. and they're doing this before the hearing, where the plaintiff's attorney and/or the colorado solicitor general can point out that since the house and senate have initiated resolutions declaring trump not an insurrectionist that the colorado supreme court ruling should hold since the congress has started the process of returning trump to the ballot.

and if I a non law talkin guy could see this and figure it out then so should the supreme court. especially if someone points that out to them.

 

I've actually got 2 questions, one about l.w and one about lemmy in general.

  1. I signed up yesterday and got an email to confirm my address but it's not working. I've used the user I created, my email, and the user that was in my email and it's not working. is it me or is it the server here at issue?

  2. I've also got a mastodon account. how do I create a post on any sub straight from there and not through a lemmy instance?
