They made an incorrect assumption that some of us are correcting.

Most of the reports I see about the police being awful seem to come from the US.
They made an incorrect assumption that a lot of us are correcting.
What’s your issue exactly?
- Comment on People often say "Don't talk to the police", but what if a friend, neighbor, or a loved one gets kidnapped and you want to help the victim? 2 weeks ago:
Yes that’s the point. I’m replying to one one who thinks this is only an issue in the US.

Since at least 1976, police have picked up Indigenous men, women, and boys, then left them miles outside the city on sub-zero winter nights, leading to what’s known as the Saskatoon freezing deaths.
- Comment on Why doesn't the US government just tax illegal immigrants a little bit more than the Average american? Then use those funds to fix infastructure or a new WPA of the 21st century? 3 weeks ago:
a) the main purpose is to avoid paying b) because spending a bunch of cash can be suspicious to other agencies that are looking, like if law enforcement is already suspicious and starts seeing a ton of large purchases without a legitimate source of income they will figure out something is up c) because people don’t know any better.

Fair enough. The same saying often goes for sex workers.
That’s how they ended up catching Al Capone, on tax fraud charges.

How do you mean? The whole point is to encourage people, everyone, to pay taxes. It’s a great system. Taxes enforcement should be truly independent from all other agencies to maximize trust and honesty.

The IRS normally doesn’t share files with anyone. Don’t you know the old saying? The best way not to get caught as a drug dealer is to file your taxes.
If you look at my other comment, undocumented people in the US contribute over $90B in taxes every year!

You can’t tax them at all, at least officially, without giving them the authorization to work.
You should probably know that this isn’t correct at all. Undocumented immigrants do in fact pay income tax in the US. The IRS issues Individual Taxpayer Identification Number to everyone, regardless of status.
Regardless of immigration status, both resident and nonresident immigrants may have federal tax return and payment responsibilities under the Internal Revenue Code.
reuters.com/…/undocumented-immigrants-can-do-pay-…
Undocumented immigrants paid nearly $97 billion in federal, state and local taxes in 2022, according to a July 2024 report , opens new tab by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), which used data on taxpayers with ITINs to estimate tax revenue.
The ITEP report said undocumented immigrants contributed $59.4 billion to the federal government, including payments for federal income tax and federal social insurance such as Social Security, Medicare and Unemployment Insurance.

The IRS issues “Individidual Tax Identification Number” for undocumented immigrants who don’t have a social security number.

Mine isn’t :/
- Comment on How do you wash a weighted blanket, is it just the outside you wash after removing it? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I have the same worry. We have a weighted blanket that we still haven’t washed and it bothers me. I don’t need to wash it regularly but it would be good to give it an initial wash after purchase, but I’m worried about damaging my front loader :(

- Comment on Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change? 3 weeks ago:
This is indeed not a new concept. But the previous tank (Ambrams) was using a turbine turbo-shaft. So this is a pretty radical departure.
As for battery technology… Let’s compare LiFePo4 (not the densest, but safe, reliable, long lasting with wide operating ranges) to modern lead acid (let alone 100 year old lead acid)…
Energy Density (Weight): 120-200 Wh/kg vs 30-50 Wh/kg
Energy Density (Volume): 250-530 Wh/L vs 75-120 Wh/L
Cycle Life: 1000-3000 cycles vs 200-1000 cycles - Comment on Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change? 3 weeks ago:
The next US tanks is supposed to be a disele electric hybrid actually. But I’m not saying this because I think it’ll be some sort of improvement. It’s just interesting that they think that is the superior tech.
- Comment on Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change? 3 weeks ago:
War releases MASSIVE amounts of CO2 and green house gasses and destroys casts swaths of green spaces.
That’s your answer.

The auth right is not pro-Palestine at all. They are very pro-Israel for a variety of racist reasons
As far as I hate to say this, a section of the auth/far/alt right is also anti-israel. Because (((Jews)))… But that also doesn’t really make them pro Palestine.

One of the worst offenders for food transfer!
Research suggests that people who regularly consume microwave popcorn have markedly higher levels of PFAS in their bodies. A study published in 2019 analyzed a decade of data about the eating habits of 10,000 people, which was collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention between 2003 and 2014. Blood samples from the study participants were also collected. The researchers found that people who ate microwave popcorn every day over the course of a year had levels of PFAS that were up to 63% higher than average.

In the future, buy loose kernels in jars. They’re the cheapest popcorn in the store
Also the bags are full of PFAS.

Yeah I keep hearing this argument, yet in real world deployments with just SPF checking, greylisting, and spamassassin my experience has been that it really isn’t much of an issue.
