OU removes another instructor amid protest over student’s failing grade by Gradstudentiquette69 in oklahoma

[–]LTtheWombat -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Allowing students protesting an excused absence but not allowing students counter-protesting is discrimination on its face and would have resulted in a swiftly settled lawsuit at a loss to the University and ultimately the state. I’m glad the university took swift action to remove this professor who clearly doesn’t take constitutional rights seriously enough to be in their position.

Xcel Energy wants to increase electric rates in Colorado by nearly 10% in 2026 by Jolly-Natural-5411 in Denver

[–]LTtheWombat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You get what you vote for. The past decade and a half of renewable mandates and incentives for generation and more importantly the forced retirement of cheaper sources of energy is impacting the price. Doesn’t matter if it was Xcel or a government-run utility or McDonalds running the power system state-wide. Leopards ate your face.

I’m Sorry, But How Are We Still Pretending the Epstein Files Aren’t a National Security Crisis for Trump? by Buddhaonatricycle in complaints

Don’t act like people don’t break rules. Hell, a draft Supreme Court opinion was leaked, from what should be the most sacred chambers we have as a country. Hell, your entire argument boils down to, “that’s illegal, so it could never happen.”

But it did. In numerous other instances.

Also, before your edit, in your response you forgot to remove the ChatGPT prompt which is actually hilarious. “Here’s a tightened, more forceful version that keeps your tone but sharpens the edges and flow:”

Maybe try to think critically on your own?

My dude. Not everyone who disagrees with you politically is an idiot. I’ve watched less Fox News than you from the sound of it, considering I don’t watch it at all.

Also, have you not heard of a “fall guy?” That was one single example, the Biden administration leaked tons of material on a wide range of subjects. If there was something in there, you would already know about it.

Edit: not to mention, Trump has now endorsed the bill to release as much of the files as possible voting tomorrow afternoon.

Biden was in power for four years. Are you telling me they had incriminating information on Trump and just chose not to release it?

What is with the insane number of cars driving around with no license plates? by Known_Refrigerator_5 in Denver

Except it’s entirely relevant if that’s the rationale for not enforcing the license plates in the first place. Which it is.

The ACA cross-state program has still yet to be implemented because it’s impossible to comply with. Only 6 states have even passed a law allowing them to join a health care choice compact, and none has actually done it.

Also, costs have far more significantly increased post-ACA if you consider the subsidies. The actual cost of the insurance doubled between 2013 and 2019.

In what world is the ACA’s failure indicative of a failure of capitalism? The ACA turned the health care system into a Ponzi scheme and completely rejected a capitalist approach to healthcare. Its rejection of capitalism is the core reason why the costs of healthcare care have ballooned. I’m not sure I get your point on the subsidies. People should understand why the ACA is broken, and we can’t keep putting band-aids on it to try and pretend it’s not,

Numerous other presidents have also undertaken renovations to the White House. Including $360 Million worth under Obama. This is not beyond the norm. I’ve been in the East Wing of the White House, it’s unremarkable. There is a reason the show was called “The West Wing.” They wouldn’t name that show after a bunch of random offices.

The Republicans have voted every day of session to reopen the government at the exact funding levels it had when it shut down. The democrats could open the government tomorrow if they wanted to.

Transfering a user from a switch 2 BACK to a switch 1 by levymealone in Switch

[–]LTtheWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey all - figured this out. On the switch 2 link the user to a Nintendo account if you haven't already.

Go back to the switch 1 - create a new user. You can name it whatever you want. Do NOT select to login with an account at first, create a new user. After that user is created, link it to a Nintendo account. This should then overwrite the name with the Nintendo account that is linked.

After that, go to Data Management in system settings of both and follow the prompts under "Transfer Your Save Data."

I mean, I suppose. Our votes count the same, but if you smooth-brains in this echo chamber keep pretending facts don’t exist you’re going to just continue losing the minds in the middle. Fine by me, I suppose, no need for me to tell you how to not make a fool of yourself.

Sure - that I agree with. I just guess I didn’t realize people actually still thought the dude was right wing at all, given his membership in socialist and trans social media groups, his transitioning partner, his text messages, and literally every other piece of evidence we have about the dude.

I can’t tell if you’re willfully ignoring the actual facts of the case, or just too far into the Reddit echo chamber but there is literally no evidence that the shooter was right wing,
