- Comment on Min wage in most states is so sad 1 day ago:
Agreed, but mostly why would a rep not be able to sleep on their office and return home? That’s rediculous
- Comment on Min wage in most states is so sad 1 day ago:
I get the idea behind it, but this very much would backfire in that only the rich could become representation. Remember they made it a rule that they aren’t allowed to sleep in their office while in D.C., and 60k not only won’t afford a place in D.C, it most definitely won’t allow for someone to have a home their constituents home AND D.C.
So we would end up with just having first or second sons of oligarchs, 1 trained to run the companies, the other trained to represent their families best interests.

True, also the hall is lit with floating candles according to the source material. I imagine most of the castle should be relatively dark. Unless they want to say the candles are similar to bright LED lights, the whole thing should realistically be darker when inside. (Albeit the roof was supposed to be some magical protection varying with weather?)

Yeah like Luke could just knock with his knee or foot. No reason to be all up in arms about it.
- Comment on Am I the only one? 2 weeks ago:
I’d argue if they sued the guy they should lose lose sales. As such they would be hurting themselves to sue him. Hell I’ll just outright say I’ll never buy or play another rockstar game if they sue someone for it.

If stocks drop because information that hypes people up for your product comes out it’s worse than crypto and everyone is being scammed.
The reason the stock is dropping is because they said you’ll get a product by x, and the product isn’t going to be ready. If you don’t make deadlines people think you are incompetent. People don’t like to invest in incompetent companies.

I mean what are they going to charge them with? Isn’t the point of suing someone that they have to prove damages. So they would have to prove that slowly releasing information about their game somehow impacted there sales/profits wouldn’t they?

Some say it just goes with the flow.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
Step 1. Remember the points don’t matter
Step 2. Remember it doesn’t matter if these people agree with you.
Step 3: Why should we even care if they mistook what we were saying
Step 4. If they agree feel ever so warm inside and justified in thinking what you thought… (Ignore all previous steps)

I would have thought you could shrink the image file and then write it to the flash drive.

I can proudly state I haven’t had a beer in near a year. Now I just have to give up the liquor, lol
- Comment on Still waiting for my Donny dollar check, any day now... 4 weeks ago:
That’s not true. Harris said she wanted to tax incomes over $1,000,000/ year, not 60k. And add a wealth tax on people who had over $100,000,000 dollars.
I’m sure many here would want those numbers lower, but no one is calling 60k rich here unless they are talking about another country.

- Comment on Could I theoretically grind up one of those pink salt lamps and use it to season my food? 5 weeks ago:
Someone gave me one as a gift when I lived on the Florida coast and I had to throw it away because it wicks up all the humidity and then leaks it onto whatever surface you have it on. Shit electronics sitting in puddles didn’t seem like a good idea.
- Comment on Don’t you lie to me 5 weeks ago:
I grew up in central Florida and it used to happen quite frequently. Officers do shady shit, city/county w.e gets sued, grand juries force restructures and people being fired. The NYPD may be covering each other’s asses better or something
- Comment on Don’t you lie to me 5 weeks ago:
Great way for an officer to get fired and the city to be sued. Without proof that they didn’t attempt to return it to the owner there is no theft.
Also most states have a time period for returning such property, and it isn’t minutes it’s days
- Comment on If I had to see it, so do you 5 weeks ago:
So like are you dead or a dolphin. I’m still trying to figure that part out. The rest of it all makes perfect sense to me.

And cocaine is milk powder for adults. First time I’ve ever thought the word “cope” should exist
- Comment on As long as I'm horizontal I'm set 1 month ago:
I don’t know enough about what’s going on to judge, but at least there aren’t dragging someone through a city street with a sack “catching” their shit and people think its alright they’ve been doing it all day when they were to hot to walk ~150 meters.

I really do wonder what the implications of cars moving to electric energy will have on the impact of transportation infrastructure.
For instance I don’t believe electricity has the same “scarce-bility”/manipulation as fossil fuels do. The U.S. subsidizes oil so much because it is making the people who pay their campaigns rich. Solar and such are relatively easy compared to drilling your own oil, refining it and making it ready for your vehicle.
So when it gets to the point that it is more expensive for all cars to be gas powered, I think we will see that electricity companies won’t hold the same monopoly values at manipulating markets. So instead of saying, I want to pay $X a year in electric to drive my car, I’d rather pay X/3
Anyways I’m off topic but we’ll see

- Comment on US Government Official refuses to answer basic question 1 month ago:
Yeah, if the members of congress had any principles none of them would have ever voted in any members who couldn’t answer basic questions in the cabinet positions.
This guy seems to think he’s Göring in the movie version of Nuremberg. No matter what he admits to, can’t say that Hitler was wrong, so he would do it again.

Are the players getting taxed by every country they play in during a season? Or do they all play in multiple leagues and one of the leagues is based out of Spain

- Comment on How is Alexander the Great so great he gets that name, but not so great that just “Alexander”doesn’t disambiguate him? 4 months ago:
Yeah now to show our Archilles, I have no idea what else I would call Saladin, but Saladin. Im sure a textbook full names him somewhere… but I haven’t ever remembered it.

Also I would say Atilla is usually called Atilla the Hun in most textbooks I saw in the U.S. Also since Caesar became a position/title we still say Julius to specifically refer to him.
As for Slim Shady, I seem to remember many people standing up to that name
