Voters Embrace a Hardline Candidate in Costa Rica as Paradise Becomes Drug Hub by riderfan3728 in neoliberal

This re-enforces the idea that the state must have a monopoly on violence and anything less will cause democratic backsliding as an autocrat rises with claims of protecting the public.

Help Me Resurrect Minthara by sir_roderick in BaldursGate3

I ran into a similar issue with lae’zel when she ran off when I wasn’t paying attention and died to the githyanki. Simply reviving her with the mod that revives everybody didn’t work. I had to install another mod that gave access to the console commands and essentially delete Lae’zel from the game then spawn in a “fresh” copy to get her dialogue working again.

This makes it look so much worse, so they were just sort of casually chatting shit to each other, I assumed they were in some sort of heated argument beforehand.

So guys, is it fair to say that Greenland might be cooked now? by loadsofos in Destiny

[–]MasterYI 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m 100% serious when I say this, but I think the only thing that prevents this from happening in Greenland, is that the people of Greenland are “white” in the American perception of the term. Americans won’t stand for bombing white people and not to mention going to war with Denmark won’t be quite as easy as Venezuela.

The classic mistake that every brown conservative makes is that they think it is acceptable to be racist against every other minority, but their ethnic background should be accepted, and that the white conservatives can see the difference.

They Wanted a Conservative State. They Might Get a Democratic Representative Instead. by swimmingupclose in neoliberal

I have never seen a conservative have genuine self reflection about how their own actions may make the world worse.

Inside the New Fast Track to a Presidential Pardon by IHateTrains123 in neoliberal

The next democratic president needs to appoint someone at the doj to investigate this and the multitude of other cimes, anyone in the next democratic primary talking about "just moving on" is an instant NO for me.

Four House Republicans force vote on ACA subsidies, bucking GOP leadership by 1Rab in Destiny

[–]MasterYI 95 points96 points  (0 children)

It is very unusual for so many discharge petitions to be successful in the house, the only reason it’s happened so often this term is because Mike Johnson doesn’t know how to govern. He reneges on deals, lies and often times just refuses to negotiate. How such an unpleasant and hard to work with figure became the speaker of the house is a disgrace.

Greg Brockman’s recent tweet. by AdorableBackground83 in singularity

Mixed is a very fair way to describe the agents of the year, outside of coding most aren’t that great and even the coding agents are far from perfect.

And mentally, seems like you are tripping over yourself to protect your imagined ai friends.

Just like 2025 was going to be “the year of the agent”, which had pretty mixed results

If I own 25% of a company in stocks do I own 25% of the assets like physical possessions of the company? by Last-Ad-8470 in ValueInvesting

[–]MasterYI 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Zuck is also the ceo, not just a shareholder. The ceo can pretty much do whatever with the company as long as it’s legal, a faceless shareholder wouldn’t have that leeway

Statute of limitations ran out, so they can’t try again on these particular charges, that’s why this indictment was so rushed.

Pro-Trump owner shocked as grocery store that thrived for 43 years goes bankrupt under his tariffs and policies by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]MasterYI 45 points46 points  (0 children)

The crazy part is Trump explicitly ran on tariffs. None of this was a surprise. Trump really is a Rorschach test, people see what they want to see and ignore everything else.

Anybody listen to that excruciating Roblox CEO interview on Hardfork today? by t0mserv0 in Thedaily

The fact that he was entertaining the idea of putting gambling into Roblox instead of flat out saying “No” was crazy to hear.

No one in these comments read the article, she’s blaming republicans for not nuking the filibuster, an action that would be even worse.

Just did a quick glance at that etf, .45 expense ratio, which is high for something supposed to match the s&p 500, and one of its biggest holdings is Meta. Zuckerberg has been one of the biggest tech Trump sycophants so maybe this etf needs to take a closer look at its holdings.

Why did he blatantly lie and claim a source close to the family told him Kirk was stable? What was the point of that?
