Ghana’s anti-LGBTQ+ bill draws international condemnation after it is passed by parliament (apnews.com)

ACCRA, Ghana (AP) — A bill which criminalizes LGBTQ+ people in Ghana and their supporters drew international condemnation Thursday after it was passed by parliament, with the United Nations calling it “profoundly disturbing” and urging for it not to become law....

The country is facing countless problems. Corruption, lack of infrastructure, deep poverty. And what do these fuckers focus on? Stopping buttsex. >.<

Theoretically you can lose more than 100%. If you first win 2000% and then lose everything, you’ve technically lost 2100% of your starting capital.

Does the underwear cover basic grooming and self care? I.e. do I still need to trim my fingernails, shave, apply sunscreen?

What about the health benefits of staying clean? I mean nice breath is fine, but if I stop brushing will I get cavities? If I get a cut, do I still need to clean the wound to avoid infection?

Trump says he'll be a dictator only 'on day one' if elected (www.rte.ie)

Donald Trump has said that he will not become a dictator if he becomes US president again except “on day one”, after warnings from Democrats and some Republicans that the US was in danger of becoming an autocracy if he wins the 2024 election. Fuck, well at least he’s honest on this statement

Tbf, I don’t think he’s lying about his explicit desire to a dictator.

Tbf, it depends. I just bought a pair of converse for 25 bucks. Granted they’re an unpopular color, but hey 25 bucks for a pair of chuck 70s is a good price.

Despite all its failings, North Korea has quite a high literacy rate. People be getting educated.

90% of the curriculum is probably Juche slogans, but hey, they’re getting educated. /s

    Sounds like something a stalinist would say. Real communism requires the support the international proletariat, which can only be achieved through permanent revolution. Trotsky was on the money.

    demonquark ,

    That’s very pessimistic. It assumes that there is a corporate led reform. Which is unlikely. If it was a grass roots campaign, the call for change would include a weekend proposal from the start. By the time businesses come around to supporting it, the weekend will alredy be defined as 3-work-2-off, or 7-work-3-off.

    A horse? Seriously? No way can this guy win against a horse. Have you seen horses? They’re huge.

    Why would we call bombings of a densely populated area with the express intent of killing and frightening residents into submission terrorism? /s

    demonquark ,

    This is a pretty empty threat. Realistically speaking the US cannot escalate without facing huge domestic backlash. Public support for US involvement in a new war in a is nonexistent, given the abject an expensive failures of the recent afghan and iraqi wars.

    Add the fact that any iranian involvement would go through hezbollah, gives both the us government and iran a way to plausibly deny iranian involvement. The US will do nothing. They might send some troop to “support” israel. They already have. Which is a token gesture at best.

    demonquark ,

    Keyword is yet. Given enough time, Israel will find “evidence” of their involvement.

    You just described the average millennial. Who are in their thirties by the way.

    Omg are we the same person? I actively avoid bodegas, caus fuck that same person behind the register shit. Much rather go to Walmart, where corporate America has so thoroughly destroyed their workers’ soul that they barely acknowledge your existence.

    demonquark ,

    Yeah… In practice, every time a company gets anything that even slightly resembles a captured market, they stop investing in quality and starting shafting consumers.

    Make no mistake, that is Microsoft’s end game. And that’s why they’re buying Blizzard.

    I see nothing wrong here.

    I don’t know who needs to hear this:
    Unity sucks, but death threats are not okay.

    If you really want to stop shit like this, vote in progressive legislators. So we can codify the fact that corporate actions influence more ppl than just the shareholders and their actions should reflect that.

    Edit: thanks everyone for correcting me. I meant not okay.

    demonquark ,

    If there’s one thing I hate, it’s ppl sayin something should have been done yesterday.

    Guess what, if should have been done yesterday, we’ve missed the deadline, we’ve already failed and might as wel write off the project.

    Seeing as they’ve been around long enough to procreate, it’s likely that the household is not a ferocious user of TP.

    Maybe they have a bidet.

    Tbf, the guy he’s writing about is batshit.

    So an injured migrant (how did he get injured?) was on the Mexican side of the border. Was approached by a guy on a motorcycle. And the Texas guard decided to shoot the guy? Because, according to the Texas Guard, e was trying to harm the migrant?

    So… Obviously made up story to justify what is still an illegal act.

    These guys have abandoned all pretense of adhering to the rule of law.

    The dude is right though. The most important part of being a programmer is designing an elegant solution. That requires talking the problem through, solliciting feedback, getting ideas… you meeting with ppl and talking to them.

    The second most important part of being a programmer is realizing that you’re not doing this alone. Once again, you talking to colleagues to discuss what they can expect and when, likewise what you need and when.

    Meetings are super important. Unless your a code monkey or if it’s office gossip or me having to spend an hour explaining why a job estimated to take 4 weeks will not be done next Friday. And no, “trying a little harder” or “realizing how important this to the client” isn’t going to change that.

    Tbh, this is what I’m thinking. No way Prigozhin would just go back to Russia without an exit plan. Any sane person knows that accidental death is the only way this would end.

    Why wait for Putin to kill you, if you could just do it yourself?

    Alternatively, it would make sense if this is part of deal he made to call off the coup. Putin promises to fake kill him, Prigozhin promises to stay fake dead.

    demonquark ,

    Tbh, I thought they had already done that.

    Tbf, when OP said “white trash” he was low-key referring to American fascists specifically.

    I use a plate. But just the one plate. I had friends over a while back and had to wash my other plates before serving. They were covered with dust.

    You are missing out. I love that movie. People call it a train wreck and tbh it kinda of is, but for me, the lynch’s weirdness jibes perfectly with the world that Herbert eventually creates. Tonally it felt right.

    The difference is most certainly not small. It’s very noticeable. I also love the veggie options, but your position is kind of like saying:

    If there’s one dish where I feel it’s a waste to eat animal meat fusilli, it’s hamburgers pasta. Vegetarian alternatives Spaghetti has come a long way and in a burger pasta dish, they’re often the superior option.

    Yeah… Being asked to defend the pro-pedophilia position of your company may be a sign that you should quit. Or be the guy who defended pedophiles in parliament. I dunno.

    I mowed my lawn today. Does that have flex potential?

    It was the video of the guy in Seoul who went to their office that made the fraud painfully obvious.

    Why would they do that? It’s cheaper to just build a mansion in newly tropical Svalbard island.

    Fines as a percentage of revenue. A big percentage. That’ll stop this nonsense.

    My grandmother used to say: if you expect your good deed to be reciprocated, you’re not actually doing a good deed.

    She said it in dutch, so I hope it’s an decent translation.

    The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won. (gizmodo.com)

    The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. The article describes it as "the official end of the battle," which seems an overstatement to me, but it's the certainly the end of the initial phase....

    demonquark ,

    Tbh, reddit did win. They’re set to become a highly commercialized social media platform, focused on maximizing engagement through generic content.

    They may lose dedicated eccentrics looking for a welcoming place to geek out over shit in their niche community. They’ll also lose users who value long in-depth discussions with complete internet strangers.

    But, Reddit doesn’t want our need those people. As long as they have the generic subs (like r/funny, r/pics) and the outrage groups (like r/aita, r/publicfreakout), they’ll keep getting views and sweet sweet ad money. And that’s all Reddit cares about.

    It’s a classic “rules for thee, but not for me” law. Good Faith judgment means the rich an powerful get access to while the poor and minorities do not.

    This is why I never understand why people use corruption to get public positions. You are incompetent. You know you are incompetent. If you weren’t incompetent, you would need corruption to get the job. Why would you want a job were your incompetence is made blatantly obvious?

    Become a socialite or some other stupid shit.

    Is this a hardcoded opt out or something? Couple of months ago I had to install windows for a friend. I tried to not make a windows account. All the exploits I found, were “patched”. I finally just gave up and made the account. My friend doesn’t care enough about privacy and I don’t care enough about windows for all that effort.

    But, [email protected] would be awesome.
