You’re assuming that the fascist simply wants a lot of people out of the US, and these are just the only places they can go. And that couldn’t be more wrong.

The cruelty really is the point. There are countless countries where people could be deported to. Countries that are willing to accept them, where they might have ties or at least know the language.

These options aren’t cruel enough. And this is exactly the face that’s being presented to the general public.

Even if (big if) Europe were willing to accept them, it would never happen because it’s not cruel enough.

There’s a similar and related math problem for this:

How many people do you need in a room before 2 of them share a birthday?

The answer is around 50, which is way less than most people expect.

I know it’s his brand, but it’s mostly useless stuff that you learn. His recent video about 8-tracks was fascinating, but I can’t imagine a single scenario where that info will be useful.

That said, I still recommend it to everyone.

He’s also never once said “thank you”. It really feels like a weird amalgamation of Trump’s toddler-like thoughts and a real policy document. You can see word-by-word whether it’s a Trump thought (or someone imitating him) or from someone else.

One thing to add, synthetic/artificial only describes some of the sugar alternatives. Others, such as stevia and erithritol, are perfectly natural. Doesn’t make them any safer (or more dangerous), as you noted.

…people used to think smoking was good for colds? Was it just menthols and the mint flavor?

The article calls it “common”, but I’ve only seen it in a single brand of low-carb ice cream. I’ve actively sought low-carb options for over a decade. It’s even less common than xylitol.

If you are a complete hard-liner, you’re going to run into one very particular, and peripheral, obstacle: your employer will almost certainly issue you a Windows laptop. It may not be a large part of your job, but it will be there. Very few companies will offer a Mac, and even fewer will offer Linux.

You might have to work as a freelancer, taking on tasks that can be done without Windows. But even something like web dev will require testing on Windows.

Given the price I’ve seen for those services, that will be the first group to get gouged. People are apparently willing to pay a massive premium for them.

There was also the related claim that the British pilots ate so many carrots it was turning their skin orange.

The very first line:

A loss leader (also leader) is a pricing strategy where a product is sold at a price below its market cost to stimulate other sales of more profitable goods or services.

So the answer to their question is “Yes, a loss leader needs to lead to something”. I have no idea why you think they have no idea what they’re talking about.

Not OP, but the most obvious and popular alternative to Adguard DNS is a (self-hosted) Pi-hole. That setup is effectively protected from such attacks, in no small part because it’s self-hosted.

The aristocrats?

That’s a far more rational and intelligent plan than I think he is capable of. Especially now that his dementia has kicked into high gear.

I’m pretty sure Epstein rationalized it to himself, and convinced himself that he wasn’t doing anything wrong.

I say that because no one is the bad guy in their own head. No matter what everyone else says, you will always be the one acting morally and justly.

But yes, it’s pretty telling that even he couldn’t stand Trump.

Democrats aren’t even capitalizing on it. Unless it’s hidden in the ads I’m blocking, I’m not seeing anything to show people that it’s Republicans behind it all. But I can point to a dozen locations that (re)print Trump’s unhinged rants on the subject.

It’s not that Google’s algorithms got bad, but the entire Internet turned to shit and they can’t compensate for it.

For anything not time-sensitive, try adding “before:2023” to your search. I’m betting the quality of your results will skyrocket.

It’s also why they had Azure Germany - an instance where they were not actually in control and data could remain sovereign. I believe it’s now defunct, or at least restricted.

The version I heard was Recreation rather than Relationships. Find out what they do for fun, whether it’s gardening, concerts, or disc golf.

Permanent DST was enacted, federally, in December 1973. It was so unpopular that it was repealed less than a year later.
