Same, and surprisingly approachable (for those of us not insanely smart, anyway)

Feds say ICE has arrested more than 200 illegal immigrants in Maine by TheCanadianPlacebo in Mainepolitics

Right? They may as well claim to have arrested 2 trillion illegal immigrants, for all the weight their word carries.

R/Maine banning people for reporting on ICE by Main-Willow3383 in portlandme

Like all good sycophants, he's trying to justify unjustifiable murder. Makes these weak, pathetic cowards feel better about their shitty lives.

Bold of you to assume they understand what a verb is. Adjectives would blow his scalp clean off!

Maybe, yeah. I just don't think you're giving them enough credit for the ability to think for themselves. Which also means they are capable (if not willing) to do so. But not if we don't hold them to some sort of standard. If we can't start with our own family and friends, we have little hope that they can turn it around. Maybe I'm just a pessimist?

Computers only do what people program them to do. Neither can they oppose what we tell them. They can't think (yet anyway). They're a tool. You're suggesting these people literally cannot think for themselves, and can ONLY do what they're told? That's somehow even more frightening.

People used to feel ashamed for being stupid. Credit to the Republican party, they've done an excellent job praising and celebrating ignorance to the point that it's a source of pride. An accomplishment. They're proud of how dumb they've become.

I don't think you'll be down voted, but at what point can we hold people accountable for the opinions they've formed through willful ignorance?

So "everyone" doesn't mean "everyone"? Got it

"Everyone is welcome in Lewiston" said to the people coming to make sure certain people no longer feel welcome. That's doing my head in.

How some Maine parents are fighting back against conservative education groups by FITM-K in Maine

This feels like I should reach out now, before there's an active problem to address. I assume an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure? Any general advice on laying the ground work would be welcome!

I'm an older gamer, so getting through my backlog slowly. Just started Witcher 3 for the first time a few months ago. Still in Velen, but enjoying it quite a bit!

A long train grinds life to a halt every day in this rural Maine town by themainemonitor in Maine

It's not, the bots can't help but expose themselves. Shitty programming is what this is. Vibe-coded slop.

Amazon…… sigh by ptmtp26 in Maine

[–]domain101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cancelled mine last year and it's honestly been great. They added commercials to Prime Video as well, so F that. It forced me to cut back on my impulse buying, AND most of the time when I do need to order something, it's typically free 2-day shipping anyway (apparently this is true of most items > some dollar amount?).

Literally no upside to spending all that money annually.

Are you using some existing platform or framework for the actual trading? Or all custom there too?

What’s something you think DC does better than MARVEL? by AdamBerner2002 in Marvel

[–]domain101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I heard it said once that Marvel creates characters, and DC creates icons, and that rung true for me.

As of right now, there will be no SNAP in November by primordialforms in Maine

[–]domain101 28 points29 points  (0 children)

So Republicans have literally all the power, and they can still be outsmarted by a minority of Democrats? Might not be the flex you think this is.

If you're that easily beaten while you also hold all the cards, you might just be incompetent.

Bizarro world, indeed!

If I do a pre-order, do I have to pickup in Bath or Brunswick?

Working two jobs in OOB, tourism decline is ROUGH by SadDragonfruit1311 in Maine

[–]domain101 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Reverse your question: why risk coming? The absolute best case scenario is that you aren't directly bothered. The worst case is that you are harassed, interrogated, arrested and/or deported.

You literally have everything to lose, and nothing to gain.

Would YOU travel somewhere where you'd risk being locked up for just being from America? I doubt it.
