There's a reason songs like these exist:

Mississippi Goddam - Nina Simone

Here's to the State of Mississippi - Phil Ochs

What's Going On Down There - Malvina Reynolds

You're giving them too much cedit with that last word, and doing yourself a disservice. "Don't stick your dick in crazy" still applies.

Nothing dirty. A five year old wouldn't see anything dirty in the joke, they just wouldn't get it.

Typically yes, they can fine you. That fine is often a certain amount per day. If you don't pay it, they can put a lien on your house so it gets taken out of the proceeds when it's sold. Oh, and if you die and your kids can't pay off that ever growing fine, they can force the house to be sold.

Somebody else's measuring scale of win or lose doesn't tell the tale.

I would say exactly the opposite - it proves the point. The sameness of the two dogs and the lack of the corresponding marriage ceremony in the background rob the image of most of its significance, and the background is a copy that wouldn't exist if the original hadn't existed.

If the recall weren't such a high bar I'd agree. At 75% though, not being recalled doesn't represent a mandate from the users. It only means the person hasn't openly and overwhelmingly offended everybody they've interacted with. If that's going to be the bar, it would be good for the community to have some say up front.

That was actually a followup to the 1990 April Fools RFC classic A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers .

The most recent installment in the official IPoAC series was 2011's Adaptation of RFC 1149 for IPv6.

White magic is poetry. Black magic is anything that works.

Even the math isn't valid unless you can show that all 600,000 of those students will remain in the US illegally when their visas expire. Not a single one of them going back to China, taking their degree to another english speaking country, or obtaining a work visa in the US - that's not realistic.

The real number was estimated at 3.67% in 2023, so 22,020 new undocumented immigrants per year from this versus 365,000 planned deportations. Not even the math checks out.

Thinkpads are not what they once were. I finally gave up on them, moved over to a Framework, and haven't regretted it.
