iHUNTcriminals , in Growing share of Americans favor more nuclear power

Cool nuclear power is in again.

kyden , in 'Hell on wheels': Teen convicted of crashing car at 100 mph, killing boyfriend and friend
@kyden@l.cackl.io avatar

I am truly sorry for the passengers. Lost life because of teenage perceived hardship is tragic.

From a different perspective, it seems incredibly impressive that anyone survived a deliberate head on collision with a brick wall (that appears to have barely buckled) at 100 MPH / 161 KMH.

Siegfried ,

Thanks for the Christianization of the speed units, God bless you

Survived and still standing on her feet…

OceanSoap ,

Not just survived, but with everything intact. No missing limbs or massive head trauma. She’s wildly lucky in that reguard.

Rediphile ,

Or wildly unlucky, depending on how one looks at it.

phoenixz ,

Something tells me the judge will make her feel a bit less lucky within a few days.

I’d be surprised if she gets out within 20 years

Lucky or a very impressive feat of engineering in modern cars? 😱

angelsomething , in We Are Witnessing the First Stages of Civilization’s Collapse

Really wish I could downvote this nonsense.

TokenBoomer , in We Are Witnessing the First Stages of Civilization’s Collapse

Nope.

Clbull , in Trump Voters Trust Ex-President More Than Their Family and Friends: Poll

The last decade has baffled me. How did we get so freaking stupid?

ineedaunion ,

We aren’t. Facists are and they have been here the entire time. They feel empowered.

logen ,

We are, and if you don’t understand that… I mean, it’s better to know our failings than to not know them… Or let ego refuse them.

NikkiDimes ,

We’ve always been this stupid. It just took some extraordinary events to bring it out again.

HawlSera ,

I think the problem is that Facebook got the mundane to use the internet.

logen ,

I’d say that problem happened well before Ol’ Zuck thought to steal the Facebook idea and run with it.

HawlSera ,

Yeah…

But it was when the corpo takeover began

BigNote ,

Resentment towards elites who sold us all on a bunch of bullshit. The elites have failed us in nearly every way and that in turn made it easy for a populist like Trump to step in and start telling the lies that a certain demographic wants to hear.

Mind you, I’m not saying that it makes any logical sense, I’m just explaining what I believe happened, or at least a big part of it.

Clbull ,

Oh I definitely feel that resentment and it has certainly made me a worse person. The wealthy have done a smash & grab on our economies and it’s been destroying livelihoods.

Where I feel like we’ve become stupid as a species is placing our trust in filthy rich corrupt oligarchs. Many of the politicians we elect are basically getting lobbyist handjobs from big corporations.

Hello_there , in 'This Is B.S.': GOP Candidates Slam RNC After Failing To Make Debate

The party of calling elections rigged is facing complaints that their election process is rigged

Tedesche OP ,

Exactly why I posted this article. It’s clear other GOP politicians are taking pages from Turmp’s playbook and we will likley have to deal with his form of politics for long after he is removed from the political arena.

Landmammals , in Lucy Letby will die in prison after receiving 14 whole-life sentences

Yes she will. Probably before the year is out.

blazera , in 'Get out of my house!' Video shows 98-year-old mother of Kansas newspaper publisher upset amid raid
@blazera@kbin.social avatar

Have DoJ announced anything about dealing with this authoritarian physical assault on journalism?

girlfreddy OP ,

The newspaper is suing the cops and city. And since I’m NAL I’m unsure if the state or feds have first juristiction on this, iirc the state has already begun an investigation.

blazera ,
@blazera@kbin.social avatar

I would not call this a civil case, especially with a dead victim.

LeadSoldier ,

The FBI supporting this and the far right is why we are here as a nation so I wouldn’t put much stock in them doing anything. They are federal police. Their brothers are the police officers who did this. They are one in the same. The FBI can just afford better messaging.

keeb420 ,

The feds can look into it as a civil rights violation afaik. Because this is a major civil rights violation.

athos77 ,

They're all going to claim qualified immunity :(

30mag ,

I don’t imagine they are in a hurry to say anything.

Rapidcreek , in US citizens urged to leave Belarus immediately

Didn’t one of the Proud Boys run there rather than face prison for Jan 6? Looks like a big oops.

TransplantedSconie ,

Guess who’s being sent to fight Ukraine?

That dirtbag for sure.

baked_tea ,

How do you fuck up a life like this I can’t comprehend

TransplantedSconie ,

Part 1 : Start off stupid

Life is hard. It’s even harder when you’re dumb.

Part 2: Believe Donald Trump.

Let simmer over a low heat of Fawx News and Russian troll farms for 4 years.

Serve over a plate of insurrection and garnish with an escape to a hostile puppet state.

Perfect recipe for a life fucked up.

echodot ,

Seems like there are better places without extradition treaties. Warmer and more tropical places. The hell they go to Belarus for?

lasagna ,
@lasagna@programming.dev avatar

Good luck getting to stay in most of those places. They’re happy to have tourists, not residents. Unless you have a lot of money to open a business. Proud little boys don’t strike me as wealthy.

Gork ,

What are the chances the Proud Boy will even make an attempt to learn Belarusian? My prediction is close to 0%. Probably would expect others to learn English instead.

dynamojoe ,

What are the chances the Proud Boy will even make an attempt to learn Belarusian?

If he pretends it’s German, maybe.

ChaoticEntropy ,

The better, warmer places need to want to keep you around.

nutsack ,

tropical climates suck i would rather eat shit

Astroturfed , in San Francisco Archdiocese files for bankruptcy as it faces more than 500 sexual abuse lawsuits

Good thing all these struggling small businesses were able to get covid relief loans. Most of them got to pay off their horrible pedo rape lawsuits with the money!

FlashMobOfOne , in San Francisco Archdiocese files for bankruptcy as it faces more than 500 sexual abuse lawsuits
@FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world avatar

The Catholic Church literally has rape litigation insurance.

It’s a shame they haven’t gone completely bankrupt.

YaaAsantewaa , in America's manufacturing boom could add 250,000 jobs in two years — report

So much for the green revolution everyone was talking about

GiddyGap OP ,

Manufacturing does not mean that it isn’t green. Manufacturing can very well be green. In fact, it should be.

The increase, which amounts to about 2% of current manufacturing employment levels, is partly due to the incentives and investments for the semiconductor and green technology sectors included in the Biden administration’s signature bills, the Inflation Reduction Act and the CHIPS and Science Act.

YaaAsantewaa ,

It isn’t green and it never will be. Joe Biden is the same as every neo-con republican

sparse_neuron ,

Manufacturing closer to the destination isn’t better than having to do it abroad and then shipping it? 🤨

qevlarr , in US citizens urged to leave Belarus immediately
@qevlarr@lemmy.world avatar

Why not earlier? Wtf

SupraMario ,

That’s what I was thinking…anyone still there probably is in support of the war.

snooggums ,
@snooggums@kbin.social avatar

They could be visiting family before the whole thing goes to shit.

SupraMario ,

Sure but even then, you’ve got a target on your back being there as a US citizen. I’d want my family to be safe so I’d leave, it’ll be less likely that anti NATO groups find out about your family if you’re not there.

snooggums ,
@snooggums@kbin.social avatar

I am just pointing out that there are other reasons to be there at this point in time that just support of the war.

SupraMario ,

Very true, some just want to stay, I know a lot of Belarusian’s hate lukashinko and putin so they stay for their country. Hopefully the time comes when they can take it back just as Ukraine has been doing.

AbidanYre ,

Or, tell them to come visit you instead.

bingbong ,

Good luck getting them a visa 🤣

SupraMario ,

Yeah that’s a big issue. Hell even some of the EU countries have issues getting visitor visas for the USA. I’ve got UA and PL family and both prior to the war had really really tough times just to be able to come visit.

SupraMario ,

No clue why you’re being shot down for this but you’re right, if you have Belarusian family and they’re not pro-putin then I’d try my hardest to get them over here.

LightDelaBlue ,
@LightDelaBlue@lemmy.world avatar

its more than a year.

Hank ,

Maybe it's meant to mainly fuck with Russian intelligence? Don't forget that we're practically at war with them.

TWeaK ,

Because intelligence didn’t tell them to until now.

Buelldozer ,
@Buelldozer@lemmy.today avatar

There’s always journalists, business people, tourists, and visiting family knocking around in these kinds of situations. This is the US Embassy officially warning those folks that they are in danger and that the US will have limited recourse if they find themselves in trouble.

qevlarr ,
@qevlarr@lemmy.world avatar

I know but I assumed they already were in danger

Coreidan , in Numerous Tesla owners say they've been trapped inside their EVs after they lost power. Here's how to manually open a Tesla door if you get stuck inside.

You need power to open the door? Every day I learn more and more how piss poor the design is for these cars.

ashok36 ,

No, there’s a manual release. It’s normally hidden but it’s there in case of the battery dying.
