Aiming such a thing would be more than an art…

ColeSloth ,

I just read one of the linked articles. It didn’t say this.

Spectrum Call Center in Charlotte, NC Reportedly Provided Fried Chicken and Watermelon to Employees for Juneteenth (thencbeat.com)

“We want to acknowledge some feedback received regarding our Juneteenth celebration,” Pezzuto said in his letter obtained by The North Carolina Beat. “Although our intent was to celebrate this nationally recognized day, some of you voiced your concerns regarding the associated food choices.”...

ColeSloth ,

Who the hell doesn’t agree that fried chicken is awesome, though?

Also, I bet you anything that if you did some digging into who it was at the company that was in charge of the concessions, it was a black person.

ColeSloth ,

At are you going to say when everyone finds out it was a black person who was in charge of the food and drink choices?

ColeSloth ,

I want to know what the company fucked up. I assume they were contaminated with something.

ColeSloth ,

Even Castro had universal Healthcare.

They still get way better gas mileage. They also don’t cost $15,000 when the battery goes bad. I replaced my 12 year old prius battery myself in like two hours after buying a brand new $2,900 replacement from the Toyota dealership. Could have just bought and replaced the bad cell in it, but in a 12 year old battery I’d probably have another to replace within a year and just have to keep going in and replacing one after the other, which would be a pain.

Can someone explain me USA obsession with prom and similar school rituals?

I just don’t get it… Why is that important, especially for kids now, that feel like they need to do a YouTube video asking for a date or doing some meme stuff. Some teens even hire the hottest celebrity or ask them to appear in their prom? This is so bizarre for me, all that just for a frivolous night....

ColeSloth ,

That’s like asking why people celebrate holidays.

That’s all it is. It’s a holiday that’s just for teens.

ColeSloth ,

I have an absolutely mint condition US new 3dsxl with an extended battery pack/grip that’s already been hacked to rip games and play roms.

I never use it anymore. Anyone know if for sale posts are allowed in here, because I’m thinking I should sell it to someone who would use it.

ColeSloth ,

It used to be, at least. I dunno if the amiibo thing still works after Nintendo shut the shop down or not.

ColeSloth ,

“Charges 30% fee” “That’s too high! You’re ripping us off”

“Charges 10% fee” “That’s too low! No other platforms could hope to compete against you with that!”

This is nothing but people bitching about nothing for the price gouging. I will give merit to the anti competitive nature if game makers aren’t allowed to have their games listed for less at other stores. As far as add on game packages locking you in goes…that might be a technical minefield to ensure compatibility.

ColeSloth ,

Then the entire lawsuit hope is pretty much bs.

With the recent issues of transgender people in sports, why don’t we move some sports over to a weight-class system?

Obviously this won’t work for all sports, but things like football, track, soccer, it would allow for de-gendered team, even allowing athletes with the skills but not the genetically-endowed physical attributes to have a place to play....

ColeSloth , (edited )

What sports would it work in? Do you think people will care about the best tennis player that weighs 140 pounds? The best 240 pound soccer players? The fastest 130 pound swimmer? No one wants to watch any of that. It barely works for boxing.

All that aside from the fact that you’re still pretty much ruining competitive sports for most cis women by doing it. The reason there’s a female “insert sport here” competitive league to begin with is so many women have a reason to compete and can win. A 150 pound trained male athlete will still wipe the floor with a 150 pound female athlete. It’s far, far, from just a weight thing. The Williams sisters were the best female tennis players the world knew, and they went out and proved they couldn’t beat a man that was ranked over 200th. The world champion austrailian female soccer team couldn’t beat a boys highschool team. The fastest woman to ever run the 1500m did it in 3:49. A 5’ 9" guy did it in 3:26.

Weight and size is only a little portion of physical differences.

If there’s so many Trans athletes, why don’t they just have a category of their own?

ColeSloth ,

Except that isn’t true. Men are more stable due to hip width, their hearts move more blood, their arms and hands are larger/longer, and their lungs hold more air. None of that goes away.

ColeSloth ,

Here’s where they’re legal, and exactly how legal they are in the US

Many of the “legal” states aren’t all that legal, really.

ColeSloth ,

Nah. Just pick your nose and use the snot.

ColeSloth ,

That’s an awful lot of talk for someone who didn’t seem to read/comprehend the article.

“Morris is not an original member, but he joined the group in 2019.”

ColeSloth ,

He’ll have a hard time gaslighting if he doesn’t edit his post before doing it. Lol.

Maybe he has dementia?

ColeSloth ,

His initial argument was that the guy now suing was old as dirt, so it was understanding that they thought he may have dementia or a mental issue.

But he never bothered to read the article when he made that huge post. The patient wasn’t an original member. He joined in 2019 and was only like 52 years old.

At that point, in his next post, he started acting like that wasn’t his big argument.

ColeSloth ,

The main arguments for it being a pro military and pro war movie is that the Bugs ARE attacking and that if humanity wants to survive, they will have to fight. Then, while most people do die, the movie ends with a major victory that looks like it may help save humanity.

I don’t really think you can argue those points away to claim its an anti military/war movie. The movie would have needed for humanity to have attacked the bugs first, starting the war; or at the least having had most everyone die for no reason, without making a shred of progress in the war effort.

I mean, they were fighting to save our entire species, and the two most vocal people in the entire movie (Ricos parents) that were against the military machine were some of the first people to die in the movie.

ColeSloth ,

Most of your points aren’t true at all.

  1. The movie point blank states towards the beginning that the Bugs were flinging out their pods/eggs/whatever into space looking to land on worlds to colonize
  2. The movie gives all appearances and inferences that the Bugs attacked first. Not the humans. This makes further sense by point 1, and how far away the bugs home world actually is.
  3. The only announcement made of a bug being afraid wasn’t all bugs. It was only the large “thinking” bug at the end of the movie, after it had its mouth cut off and it was strapped down and being experimented on in the lab. There was no inferences at all of any other bugs being made. So no, the government wasn’t depicted in the movie as lying about knowing of any bug intelligence. I didn’t know of any intelligent bugs, and by the end of the movie it was only known that the one type of rare smart bug captured was the only intelligent one, and that it was able to possibly psychically control the other dumb bugs.
ColeSloth ,

The movie point blank says the bugs attacked first and that it’s a colonization species that just hurls meteor filled bugs randomly into space in order to try and find new planets to colonize.

Also, when the “main” character in the movie (Rico) is in basic training and about to quit the military, a bug meteor impacts the earth, taking out an entire city, and killing his parents, so the bugs were most definitely attacking humanity, and earth directly.

The movie also ends on a high note, making it seem like they learned some very important information by capturing one of the until then unknown bugs that was able to think and direct all the mindless bugs. So while the war will go on, it leaves the viewer to think that humanity was making progress towards a victory. The movie also marked the first time that humanity actually went to the bug home planet and “took the war to them”.

ColeSloth ,

What’s your point? I’m not really sure why you sent this as a reply to me.

ColeSloth ,

We aren’t talking about the book at all, though. We’re strictly talking about the movie.

ColeSloth ,

No there wasn’t.

ColeSloth ,

There’s also no presentation that it isn’t true, and by whatever means, we do know for sure that the Bugs are attacking earth. Retaliation or not, so either way it’s people stuck having to fight in order to save humanity.

ColeSloth ,

But none of that changes that during the time frame of the entire movie, humanity is being attacked (regardless of who shot first) and that the Bugs will destroy humanity if they aren’t fought against. It’s hard to be a movie seen as anti military, when during the time frame of the movie, the only thing saving humanity is the military. Everything else is speculation, like who attacked who, why the war started, if the military machine intentionally started the fight…all of that is just at best a “we don’t know”.

But what we do know, is that aliens are attacking the earth.

ColeSloth ,

Buenos Aires, on earth, was destroyed and everyone living there was killed… nothing within the movie actually presents as the bugs may not be trying to destroy humanity and just spread/populate the galaxy. All of the government conspiracy inside job false flag stuff everyone here has fun talking about is almost completely baseless. It’s all conjecture.

ColeSloth ,

The pay website won’t allow me to read it. How much are they actually getting paid right now?

ColeSloth ,

27k and bunches of wasted time…yeah. that’s idiotic. I can’t believe they even get applications.

ColeSloth ,

He’s also an actor!

ColeSloth ,

It’s for people who grew up in the 80s and 90s, but want to hear new songs.

I means, I still listen to and enjoy new music while being in my 40’s, but the shit you loved in your teens just kind of gets hardwired into your soul. What I enjoyed back then was usually a bit heavier, though.

ColeSloth ,

They’ll just keep it shut off. It’s not a requirement.

ColeSloth ,

How long till it’s a crab?

ColeSloth ,

Wow. It’s on steam and on PC!

ColeSloth ,

Lol. Yeah. Young, young, OP.

ColeSloth ,

I’ve heard you don’t want the flat pack Steam, so…

ColeSloth ,

Like 16 years ago you could buy a brand new chevy aveo with an msrp of $10,300.

Small econoboxes used to be cheap and affordable.

ColeSloth ,

There were a lot of good ones on the road that were sub $14 that still exist and are good for 200,000+ miles. I just pointed out one of the absolute cheapest.

The fuk? Please help me complete this insane captcha (lemmy.world)

Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck… ??? What’s the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn’t? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what’s the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

ColeSloth ,

You think commercial trucks are planned to be obsolete after 5 years? Are you a failed captcha guessing bot? You’ll have to like triple that number.

ColeSloth ,

What are you using it for, and how much space are you looking to need? This info will change recommendations.

ColeSloth ,

A used watch 5 pro (or just buy a new one) can be had for like $160. I can leave all my stuff turned on and I always get over 48 hours. Plus WOS is just better than tizen, hands down.

That said, I had a ticwatch pro 5 for a bit and it was better in every single way but one, so I had to send it back. It had a couple bugs they couldn’t figure out how to get rid of with my Note 20 Ultra compatibility.

Still sad I don’t have that watch anymore. Awesome dual screen set up, better processor, more ram, faster ram, more storage, bigger and longer lasting battery, Smoother navigation. It would be the go to android watch if they could get their software compatibility up to snuff and support their devices longer.

ColeSloth ,

I wish I could still get a higher end phone with an SD card slot. I’m holding onto my s20 ultra (I like the pen) until I’m forced out for security update reasons.

ColeSloth ,

Yeah. I have t mobile, so the xperia 1 V, and the newly released but not officially sold in the US xperia 1 VI would work, but rare phones tend to lack support, amd I can’t bring myself to shell out $1400 for a phone like that.

ColeSloth ,

She’s probably alive because she’s already cut a deal with the narcos. I believe over a dozen other candidates were gunned down, along with some family members. I doubt that her and her family managed to get out of all that from simple luck.

ColeSloth ,

She’s a shadow puppet of the last president, and he didn’t do anything to stop the narcos or the murders. Why would you think she’s different?

ColeSloth ,

Ok. How do you think it’s flawed? The drug lords literally killed over a dozen other candidates, the current president was looking the other way on their business, and this woman worked with that president and is known to have similar views.

So where’s the flaw, my guy?

ColeSloth ,

Well of course it’s speculation. It doesn’t make it untrue or very unlikely, though. It’s just not a certainty. What is a certainty was that a dozen+ candidates were murdered, but there weren’t any attempts of her or her family.
