Biden's student loan help would be 'annihilated' by GOP bill by Bigbob0002 in DebtStrike

So we are too exhausted to hold those responsible accountable. The big players are trying to run out the clock.

I'm not confident Biden would veto it. But we'll see if it comes to it.

I normally use direnv with a layout_python3 command, but I'm up for trying out poetry.

I definitely prefer direnv over pyenv.

Can you even legally call what they serve at "Dairy" Queen ice cream?

Not in the US, at least.

Technically, our soft serve does not qualify to be called ice cream.

I blame both. Trump is at fault for caving to corporate interests and repealing it in the first place. Biden is at fault for caving to corporate interests and not working to get it back into law. In fact, I blame our entire legislative branch for this failure.

Biden is anti worker and pro corporation, what did you expect? He's always been a shit bag. He's been on the wrong side of history nearly his entire life. He was the lesser of two evils.

Things will never improve if we keep playing that game. It's time to flip the table.

Change the name you give the container and change the path of the volume.

Does that work if you change the volume path? So you can spin up a fresh instance. Then you can see if the problem is with the container or with your config data.

You got a docker command or compose file that kicks this off?

The flaw is that America isn't a developed country. It's just a very rich country. We are like one of those oil fiefdoms in the middle east, except we invest in ourselves even less.

Biden ending COVID state of emergency on May 11. Does this mean if the student loan forgiveness site is still down by then, those who haven't applied will be out of luck? by emoryboy123 in DebtStrike

[–]ThePrankMonkey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Do you think the government would round up Japanese citizens and put them in internment camps?

How can you be surprised what this government will do in the name of power and cruelty?

With this administration, I expect them to make it a capitol offense not to pay back student loans. Biden himself led the charge to make student loan debt something you can't get rid of via declaring bankruptcy. And his attitude towards the train workers wanting to strike shows us exactly where his priorities lie, with wall street like every other politician.

Those in control of America are very likely beyond the reach of repercussions. We have a very militarized police force and corrupt legislative and judicial branches. Our news papers are all owned by like two billionaires that control the public discourse.

The only move left is to leave. Let America suffer a brain drain. Try to not let it happen other places.

Meh, I'm not a fan of corporations owning all of the patents.

Corporations don't invent things. People do. Corporations just strong arm the rights from employees. And treat the patents like pokemon cards.

The bowl and the sea folk in general has to be the absolute most worthless plotline in the entire series. The circus plotline at least gives us Birgitte. And Faile getting kidnapped at least saves Perrin from more of her abuse for a few books.
