‘As Long As I Gave It My All’...
  • The problem is that you can replace him with a better candidate, but that doesn't mean the new candidates chances of winning are better. The DNC has to put up the candidate that gives the best chance of winning, not necessarily the best candidate.

  • What a month
  • As someone who shoots professionally, these numbers feel low to me. The stupid shit I see every day folks do makes me wonder how they're still legal without a license

  • Conspiracy Theorists Think Biden Was Hit With Directed-Energy Weapons During Debate
  • My favorite conspiracy theory is that Kelly Johnson was read into alien tech at area 51/roswell and he was allowed to reverse engineer it. That's why he got government funding directly to him, and how he developed the sr71 blackbird so fucking quick

  • You ain't fooling anyone
  • Some office work too though. If you want to actually win the contracts, you gotta go fast. Granted, it's not fast all the time, and we can plan when those contracta sprints are coming, to an extent, but I would definitely describe my office job as fast paced.

    Not to mention when the customer changes the statement of work you're bidding on...

  • Despair makes young US men more conservative ahead of US election, poll shows
  • Thats not how extraplation works...

    Went toward freedom in any amount of time, extrapolated to any other time, will still be in the same direction, aka toward freedom. The direction cannot change when you have two data points and linearly extrapolate

    If they went up 0.1 in 10 years, if you extrapolate 10 more years, they'll go up 0.1. If you extrapolate 5 years, they'll go up 0.05. They'll always go up at the rate of 0.1/10 years

  • bOtH SiDeS!!1!
  • I never heard of a hexbear before lemmy, and frankly, I don't understand them. They don't really seem to support any thing, they just actively don't support things. They're just negative about everything and basically, just annoying. They're not on any political spectrum I understand

  • Ukraine packed a Cessna-style plane with explosives, added remote controls and kamikaze’d it into a Russian drone factory 600 miles away
  • Yeah pretty sure that's a war crime under the Rome Statute. Emphasis mine.

    The law applicable in international armed conflict forbids “mak[ing] improper use of … the military insignia and uniform of the enemy …” (Art. 23(f) of the Hague Regulations of 1899 and 1907; Art. 39 of Additional Protocol I; Art. 8(2)(b)(vii) of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court). Not all uses of enemy uniforms are prohibited therefore; only “improper” uses. For example, wearing enemy uniforms in order to flee the fighting or escape capture does not run afoul of the law (U.S. Department of Defense Law of War Manual § 5.23.1.4). On the other side of the spectrum, engaging in attacks while wearing the uniform of the enemy is flatly prohibited, as affirmed in the treaty law and numerous military manuals (see here, here and here, for example), and is a war crime under the Rome Statute.

  • The soft life: why millennials are quitting the rat race
  • The problem is, you used to be able to comfortably live that life. Now if you stay at the same company, your wages won't increase at a rate to sustain your life style. Companies care way more about acquiring talent than retaining talent, so you need to move around to make enough money

  • Majority of Americans now use ad blockers
  • My wife does. But she's a sucker for "a good deal"

    I dont ever click on them myself, but if I start searching for something I need/want, and I see a brand I'm familiar with thru advertising, I'm more likely to explore their product, at least. Simply just because, "of I've heard of this before"
