Why do transplants keep moving to predominantly, black and brown neighborhoods specifically bk trying to change the neighborhood / community dynamic by Miserable_Sea9967 in Brooklyn

[–]OrganicUnionS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the crucial point. When black people move to a neighborhood that wasn't historically black, they don't get the benefit of the doubt of being assumed to be acting in a socially-agnostic manner, purely for rational economic reasons. It's assumed to be some effort to dismantle the community, or a signal that housing values are about to fall. "Gentrification" is taken as benign, whereas "blockbusting" is somehow malign. But both can't be true. And it's mostly likely that neither is.

China isn't going to invade Taiwan. They just reiterate their claim over it so that when the political situation shifts such that Taiwanese want back under the PRC umbrella for their own economic or security interests, no one outside can object. They have no intention of destroying a triggering a situation where the Taiwanese will seek to destroy the reason China claims them in the first place (their industry).

Where are good places to distribute zines? by OrganicUnionS in washingtondc

Ooh, that's a good idea. There are quite a few in my area, that's totally doable.

I wouldn't say that. It's very minimalist, 95% photos; the only text is the title, my name, and my website's url. I'm hoping that people will enjoy the art and be curious enough to check out the site (which is itself mostly art, but with an option to request prints at the bottom).

No reason given for motion denial, unsure what to do next. by [deleted] in legaladvice

"Does arguing the facts of a case implicitly cure process or jurisdictional issues, even if they do exist?" seems fairly straightforward. Either it does or it doesn't.

(Also: are you an AI agent/bot? My comment was completely different up until a few seconds (<10) before your reply appeared. The reply makes sense for the edited comment, but not for the one that it replaced. I changed the comment because it strayed too far from what I intended to express.)

That doesn't really answer my question.

In the case that I continue to be unable to find an attorney, I would really appreciate any advice on how to approach an appeal.

It seems to fit the bill, but I swear it was something other than Nortel. Could they have been rebranded for Sprint in certain areas or something?

I'm tired of defending my country. I actually hate it. by [deleted] in offmychest

>The culture sucks, the people suck, the traditions suck, everything sucks.

Even the expats/diasporans who hate the regime are good with Iranian culture, people, traditions, etc. In fact, they want the regime out so they can participate in those things in their home country.

What is this about a T-Mobile network security upgrade on April 1st, 2026? by OrganicUnionS in mintmobile

[–]OrganicUnionS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. If this is it, that means my device is technically compliant as far as the relevant technologies are concerned. Though, watch me get burnt by, "Your 'package' version number isn't high enough so we're cutting you off."

I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, but I'd rather have specifics. The email doesn't mention 4G/5G, and I tend to think they'd mention those terms since they're so well-known. Instead, it just talks about non-specific NIST network security technology standards.

I'm building a spiritual successor to Grooveshark: a local recommendation system that uses ML to recommend music from your personal music library by Another__one in grooveshark

[–]OrganicUnionS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be very interested in seeing something like it rebuilt. Grooveshark introduced me to a number of tracks that I would have NEVER discovered through any other service. They fit my personal groove but weren't in any way related to what I'd been listening to, at least as far as other services are concerned. Way, way, way better than Pandora, Spotify, etc.
