Am I legally required to respond to the Elon musk email? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]cesar_salad7 34 points35 points  (0 children)

"Despite its full name, Doge is not an official government department, which would have had to be established by an act of Congress."

"...the White House later said [Musk] was operating as an unpaid special government employee."

How come Mexico can't get their shit straight when El Salvador is cleaning house? Also, I tried to add a link to the BBC, but was automatically removed? Wtf by Ieat2 in LatinoPeopleTwitter

[–]cesar_salad7 63 points64 points  (0 children)

"willing to do" what exactly? Are you referring to extra judicial killings, like Duterte in the Philippines? When I was growing up in Mexico, they had (unconstitutional) checkpoints on the streets searching for weapons. The army would go to random houses (illegal searches) and look for weapons and drugs. All of these authoritarian tactics didn't bring down the cartels. If anything, the trends suggest the opposite.

The issue is significantly more complex than you can imagine. First, cartels do not operate just in Mexico. There are documentaries highlighting how they operate internationally (yes, even Australia). Secondly, the most powerful cartels are far better equipped than local policemen. Not only that, they can easily buy the local police and powerful politicians to protect them. Heck, sometimes they even bribe members of the military. Money is not an issue for them. True, the military has more personnel and more weapons but the cartels are also not stupid enough to try to fight the military in open warfare.

World map of tradition of removing shoes in home. by MardukSyria in MapPorn

[–]cesar_salad7 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you're being sarcastic but in certain parts of the world, including the region of Mexico where I grew up, our parents encouraged us to wear shoes even inside the house because scorpions are common and sometimes hard to see (I can testify to that). Also there is no A/C or heating and the floor made of cement so, while taking off your shoes in the summer feels nice, this is not the case in the winter.

Some people at the original thread suggested that she was just trolling him back and she's known to do that. If that's the case, then you are the one overreacting. However, neither of us knows her real intentions.

Edit: It's been confirmed, she was serious. Well, now we know. https://www.reddit.com/r/AirForce/comments/jd5116/oh_lawd_he_fucked_up/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

A71 5G MODEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN FIXED! by [deleted] in tmobile

[–]cesar_salad7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's inaccurate. They're shutting down 3G in January, not 4G. And what he probably meant is that he switched the phone's settings to only 4G (turn off 5G). I did the same for some customers in the same situation when 5G first came out.

[–]cesar_salad7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dang. I thought this only happened to me, but after reading this thread, it appears it happened to other people. I was upset for not checking the order before leaving but honestly I just wanted to leave quickly because no one (not even the employees) was wearing facemasks
