That is very surprising. The opposition has been in disarray since their last majority AFAIK and of course the LDP has basically been ruling for decades with very little interruption.

For real. Id like to see any article where an ICE was bricked and couldn’t even drive simply by an update.

Not only that, as EVS get more popular those stations will get more saturated. Even with more stations that means longer waits. Imagine a line for gas where it takes 5 total minutes to fill, if that. Now imagine that line with 20+ minute EV charging, per vehicle.

Im not against EVS but there are drawbacks. Acting like there aren’t isn’t doing Anyone any good.

Quite frankly I wish they’d just spend money on public transit.

This is why the dark ages line is only half true. Paying for what you consume is normal anywhere else. Bringing that back to the internet would be a good thing IMO.

Ahh, good point. I have only been “testing” matrix for a year and haven’t enabled sliding sync so haven’t bothered using element x yet.

Well then theyre right- one day it might get done. 😄

Tbf, they actually are. Element X and the sliding sync are ready I think. If the server and client both use it, I think you can use it today. Or maybe the whole matrix 2.0 where that’s all integrated isn’t pushed into main/master yet. Im any case, I read it was ready maybe a few weeks ago.

I mean, if they removed or at least upped their dumb debt brake then they could spend to avoid this while making their economy better. But the FDP would never allow such sensibility.

One of the best comments I’ve seen here. Kudos

It doesn’t matter. You either get votes or you don’t. They could’ve picked coalesced around anyone. What difference does it make? Bernie had a good a chance as anyone in 2020. He just didn’t win.

You’re basically just rehashing the same “it isn’t fair” that a bunch of people do. It was completely fair but Bernie’s fanbase was not nearly as big. Or that didn’t show up. My entire point.

Edit- lot of butthurt people that can’t accept reality evidently.

Looking at what trump did and remembering his “nuclear” speech people need to gtfo over it and vote Biden.

Jfc

Trump did not speak confidently.

He ignored the questions, he lied with abandon, and the moderators did nothing about it. Biden couldn’t keep up with the flood of lies to refute it all.

Im quite sure Biden is capable of lying just as quickly and confidently but he is a better person than that. He actually came to debate, not spit in our faces by lying right to us.

Except your arguments against Biden easily apply, and more so, against trump. He is absolutely not all there, a mere three years younger, and certainly not competent (and absolutely corrupt on top of that.)

The simple answer is- people expect Republicans to be degenerates. They don’t expect that of Democrats. It’s nothing but a shitty double standard we’ve let dictate politics for decades.

Because I’m at a fast food place in the first place because my time is important and I don’t want to waste it ordering.

That and the guy taking orders does it 1000x a day and i can easily order that way instead of me navigating ten different menus just to order a simple meal for my family.

I’m OK with my old man status at this point. Tech is good when it improves things for the consumer. The kiosks seem to just improve the company bottom line IMO.

Getting all the states to agree to this seems unlikely and I believe it needs to be unanimous, right?

I would love if lawsuits brought the shit that is ai down. It has a few uses to be sure but overall it’s crap for 90+% of what it’s used for.

That’s a good take but I gotta say- kids are kids. They WILL slack off, they will goof off, they will use the phones for other things. This isn’t a critique- it’s what kids do.

If they need tools then a couple ipads or similar can be used. I don’t find the argument “they need to exist with smartphones in society” convincing for school. At work you know you’ll be fired if you’re caught using your phone too much, etc. and slacking off. Kids aren’t under the same pressure as that and quite frankly I wouldn’t expect them to act with that level of maturity as even some adults don’t and they’re older and should be wiser.

As for the problem of just existing with them? I feel like that is yet another thing that school won’t solve. That is up to their parents, etc. Good habits start at home. Expecting schools to solve all problems (especially ones so entrenched like socioeconomic conditions, poverty, etc.) is half of why we’re here in the first place. But guess what? If the kid is given a tablet or allowed to use a cell phone at the table and basically whenever/wherever they want, do you think their behavior will be different in school? Do you think it’s up to the school to be forcing this? That is yet another ridiculous burden I think we’d put on teachers and staff.

Moreover, don’t you think we should be conditioning these kids that it’s ok to exist without a phone?

These kids won’t be worse off without phones. Like you said- the rest of us did just fine without them. Let them have a calculator and computers in computer class and call it a day.
