I mean, I’d rather have a milquetoast center-right Democrat than a fascist, given the de facto two-party system.
But maybe that’s just me.

Nah man. There are uses for touchscreens in cars. Just don’t put everything there, and especially don’t put anything you’d need to use while actively driving in there.
But being able to have dynamic user interfaces is very useful for plenty of non-directly-driving-related features.
Personally I think “idiot tax” works better.
“Stupid” and “dumb” being adjectives that could also be describing the tax itself, rather than the person paying it, is ambiguous. But “idiot tax” clearly says, to me anyway, “a tax on idiots.”
Khalil had legal citizenship which makes him a US citizen
As I understand it, he is not a citizen but a legal permanent resident married to a citizen. He has a green card.
The wisdom that man managed to pack into so many hilarious novels is astounding. We did not deserve him.
Don’t take my word for it, you can read what they said about it here. Seems perfectly reasonable to me.
As I understand it that has more to do with covering their ass. They haven’t changed their practices.
The Jira thing has nothing to do with arrogance. That’s just a side note about how much I like working with Germans. 😅
I genuinely can’t tell if they’re arrogant or if they’re knowledgeable and don’t bother to hide their expertise behind false modesty. But damn do German engineers write the best Jira tickets. So much detail, precise test steps, clarity about what changes they want made. Most engineers I get frustrated with because they don’t give us enough to work with, but German engineers almost give us too much.
Wow was I ever the wrongest person that had ever wronged. Sorry again guys, next time I’ll just keep my trap shut
“Man, when I was younger I shoved my ignorance in people’s faces. They beat me with sticks. By the time I was forty my blunt instrument had been honed to a fine cutting point for me. If you hide your ignorance, no one will hit you and you’ll never learn.”

There was the iPhone 13 Mini. It’s adorably small. But it didn’t sell well so they stopped making the Mini line.
How can it be trained to produce something without human input.
It wasn’t trained to produce every specific image it produces. That would make it pointless. It “learns” concepts and then applies them.
No one trained AI on material of Donald Trump sucking on feet, but it can still generate it.
“Low-key” is to Gen Z as “literally” is to Millennials. It doesn’t actually convey meaning, it’s a signifier that the person speaking uses a specific generational dialect. It’s a word you throw in that sounds like it makes what you’re saying more meaningful, but really just makes it sound infuriating to anyone outside your linguistic norms.
I wish real-life tyrants were more like Vetinari.
I’m betting you have some pretty interesting stories.
in a CNN appearance on Sunday, Connolly said workers should comply for now.
“I guess if you can, cover yourself and do the five things you did last week just to be able to say, ‘well I did it,’” he advised.
Obviously Congressional Democrats need to fight, but this sure sounds to me like he’s just telling Federal employees to cover their bases in case the courts rule DOGE does have authority. This is their livelihood, after all.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding.
Because they are falling for the same propaganda, but on the other side of the coin. Don’t waste your time vilifying them for falling for the same line we all do. It serves no purpose except to make you angry.
You’re assuming Trump is capable of learning the types of lessons that schoolyard bullies learn.
