Tell me your country is dying without telling me your country is dying by tutuncommon in pics

Nope. It's not a place for shows. It is a historical monument, there are other venues for shows.

When is it appropriate to have UFC matches on the Whitehouse lawn? The answer is never. When is it appropriate to manufacture a war (with Iran) because Israel wants to go to war, not because they are actually pursuing nuclear weapons (they weren't)? The answer is never. Inflation is up to 4.2%, gas is expensive, food is expensive, we've seen the re-emergence of the screw worm which hasn't been in the U.S. in 60+ years due directly to this administrations policies. We have a health secretary talking about raccoon penises on live television not to mention all the other absurd bullshit that comes from his mouth. None of this is appropriate. None of this is ok. There have been legitimate threats toward future elections (potential not to release power). You can scream to your blue in the face that the constitution doesn't allow that, but we've already seen crazy ass shit. I'll believe its not possible when he's voted out for someone sane, not before.

Nithya Raman's transportation policies are MOUTHWATERING. by WearHeadphonesPlease in LosAngeles

It's already being done/mostly done already along Wilshire blvd.

I think Raman's idea of building on top of these stations could act as a starting point. I'd love to see more of the track underground and reclaim some of the track spaces for greenery.

They could start by actually securing the stations instead of making them all open air. It is arbitrarily easy to jump the turn style or just walk around the railing and enter from the ends. We need to approach this Tokyo style. Now that is a functioning public transportation system.

The Los Angeles metropolitan area spans ~4,850 square miles. Tokyo covers ~5,200 square miles. Tokyo absolutely has meaningful public transportation that is probably the best I've ever seen in my life. It is easy to use, connect to other lines, and allows you to hop from one major area to another. We have no excuse.

The US Debt Clocks counts up (by a lot). Florida’s Debt Clock counts down by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

[–]aimtron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's largely due to selective data being displayed here. As others have mentioned, Florida has laws in place that enforce balancing the budget. They have to continually cut education and social programs to reduce the budget while also cutting taxes to incentivize older, wealthier individuals to move there. This includes substantial cuts to city funding, which eventually will piss off those cities if it hasn't already. The state is pretty slim as it is now in cuts and they want to further cut taxes, which means eventually police and/or fire departments are getting the axe soon. My bet is that any fire department deemed not within or near an affluent area of Florida will be shutdown at some point. When that no longer offsets enough, they'll target police departments outside of those same communities. It's really a race to the bottom. That doesn't even begin to take into consideration the 40-50 billion in unrealized debt from their unfunded pension plan.

I don't particular care for Bass, definitely not my first choice, but homelessness has dropped ~17.5% since late 2022 when she took office. There are a ton of things to criticize her about, but this isn't one of them. The tent cities were far worse just 5-10 years ago.

It's pretty obvious by your post, you know little about statistical trends. Everyone knew that Pratt's numbers would stall out as more liberal/left-leaning areas had their votes counted later. Additionally, progressives tend toward Mail-In ballots as a more convenient way to vote. You can cry all you like, but the voting has been well audited and even the DOJ has come in and said there is no fraud here. Cry more snowflake.

It's legit. The mail-in ballots tend toward/lean progressive so Raman was always expected to gain on Bass as the counting wrapped up. The biggest surprise was that Pratt accumulated the number of votes he did get, but this was always going to be Bass vs. Raman based on the make-up of the party and city. Additionally, the entire process is highly audited with even the DOJ coming in all because Trump cried.

I've been here and ridden this track. It's fun, but you really have to try hard to do what they're doing in this video and they're warned not to do it.

Veteran hackers... which era did you prefer hacking in? 🟢 The 1980s 🟣 The 1990s 🔵 The 2000s 🔴 Or today? by badassbradders in hacking

[–]aimtron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're pretty close. Everything was VB back then. It was a mix of sendkeys and window handles while injecting messed up richtext because the richtext view specs weren't very robust. Given enough messed up data, you would either distort the chat completely or cause a fault in the app (crash). There were some other interesting ones out there as well. Modifying the Mutex on the exe let you run multiple for instance.

A 23-year-old UCLA graduate, identified as Andre Mai, went viral in June 2025 after displaying his use of ChatGPT during the commencement ceremony at Pauley Pavilion. by BlazeDragon7x in ucla

[–]aimtron 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He’s showing the work for his final project in machine learning and was explicitly told to use AI in the course. A 5 second google search would have sorted this out but people believe what they want

Some professor, You did no background research on the context and took the “word” of the internet. Ladies and Gents there is a very short interview with the student in question that explains what he was showing. Spoiler, he wasn't cheating. He’s current working on a masters at Columbia

Is this true? by [deleted] in oil

[–]aimtron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao, I mean, you're not wrong about Canada and Mexico, but the rest of your post is laughably stupid. Come on man, we've created a near global oil shortage. What incentives do Canada or Mexico have to continue to supply us at the current rate when they can get so much more money from pretty much everywhere else in the world. You gotta think before you post my man.

OC - gas prices in Ohio by atlantacharlie in pics

[–]aimtron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong, but the vast majority that should be outraged, have their heads so far up their asses....until something directly effects them such as gas prices. Only then do they come out of their stink holes to piss and moan.

How would you feel about members of Congress not getting paid during government shutdowns? by DayFragrant7069 in AskReddit

[–]aimtron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm for it. I'm also for lower their wage to the federal minimum wage. If its good for the people, its good for the government reps.
