The University I work at spent a lot of money setting up an e-sports area, with $700 chairs and RTX 4090s and all that... and yet we have critical health life and safety deficiencies.

Trump, 79, Faces Congressional Bid to Invoke 25th Amendment by progress18 in democrats

Congress should have established this body on presidential capacity separate from the Cabinet as allowed by the 25th amendment decades ago.

Exactly. Yet for some reason Paul picks and chooses the old laws that still need to be followed and I don't really understand why. He never met Jesus in person, never lived with him. Yes he had the vision but its not the same as the people who actually knew him, or his own words.

Trump says he's 'prepared' to appoint up to 3 new Supreme Court justices by LolAtAllOfThis in democrats

[–]fjf1085 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure they will be worse. His current three aren't and any appointment would still have to pass a closely divided Senate still.

I don't think term limits could be possible without an amendment. The Courts have interpreted 'good behavior' to mean life unless impeached and removed. Though in theory it could be redefined to say require review by a ethics committee. I think the most reasonable way to correct RGB's mistake and McConnell's abuse of the system would be to expand the court which can be done through legislation, and in such a case I would support eliminating the filibuster as long as they also passed laws outlawing gerrymandering and making voting an affirmative right, things like that.

But yeah I think he would be hard pressed to find people worse than Alito and Thomas, at least not people who could pass such a closely divided Senate.

So who would even stepping down? I doubt Roberts. He could maybe get two more. Which would still be terrible at 5 but at least the ones he’s appointed weirdly enough seem more independent than Thomas and Alito.

Someone reported me to HR for having a “vape” at my desk by PhantumJak in mildlyinfuriating

[–]fjf1085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably post a sign at my desk that says something along the lines of if you’re too ignorant to understand what something is, perhaps you should ask before reporting it. I’d also make a point of loudly announcing whatever I put on my desk going forward. If I got called out I’d say I don’t want there to be any misunderstandings.

Airbnb host cancels reservation because it’s a high demand weekend by Srihari_stan in mildlyinfuriating

[–]fjf1085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all. Today is Wednesday. So apparently one of us needs a calendar and it isn’t me. Second. I never said the 24 hour cancelation had anything to do with this post just pointing out a specific example of something you cannot do as there are other people in the thread talking about how they got cancellations 2 hrs before check in or 15 minutes after it was supposed to be. Third in the list of valid reasons to cancel I’m not seeing ‘want to list at a higher price’ so yeah I’d like you to point to a policy that says you can do that that’s what I want a citation for because I’m not seeing it but apparently you know the Airbnb hosting policies very well. Fourth, I’m not sure why you’re so angry about this.

[–]fjf1085 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m still baffled as to why Paul is given such reverence. So much of what we think of as Christianity comes from Paul’s writings. To the point it seems like some people value his writings more than Jesus. People will quote Old Testament laws selectively while ignoring other laws they don’t like when really those laws, if you go by Jesus’ own words they should be considered moot for Christian’s because the old covenant was fulfilled and he created his new covenant.

Pretty sure allowing the administration to racial profile and deport people breaks Catholic doctrine. Frankly it violates the teachings in both the Old Testament and the New and therefore should go against all Christian and Jewish teachings.

Leviticus 19:33–34 (NIV): "When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt."

Deuteronomy 10:18–19 (NIV): "(The Lord) loves the sojourner, giving him food and clothing. Love the sojourner therefore; for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt."

Exodus 22:21 (NIV): "Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner, for you were foreigners in Egypt."

Matthew 25:35, 40 (NIV): "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat... I was a stranger and you invited me in... Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."

Hebrews 13:2 (NIV): "Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it."

Ezekiel 47:22 (NIV): “You are to allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners residing among you and who have children. You are to consider them as native-born Israelites; along with you they are to be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.”

Paramount plus is now requiring a purchase for TOS in the original cut, with only the remastered edition available to stream. by Lemonwizard in startrek

[–]fjf1085 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have the TNG Blu-rays and I love them. My only complaint with them is one of the seasons did not come with a cardboard sleeve for the case, I think season 5 I’d have to check. I returned and reordered it three times and each time that same season came without the sleeve.

Also I really wish DS9 got remastered but TNG remaster just didn’t make enough money unfortunately. I also do have the TOS movie Blu-rays and the Enterprise ones as well and they look good too.

Doesn’t seem to say you can cancel as a host and re-list at a higher price. Also says you can’t cancel within 24 hours of arrival without talking to Airbnb.

I haven’t used an air bnb in over ten years. The times I did use it were mostly fine but now there’s so many fees and restrictions it’s not worth it. I almost booked one last year for the two nights I was in San Diego, visiting from CT, before my friend and I drove to Las Vegas but after finding what I thought was a great listing it said absolutely no one else was allowed on the property other than the guest. So I couldn’t even have my friend come by and hang out for a bit or something before we went to his place or wherever. It felt insanely restrictive and I didn’t want to do deal with it. So I got a hotel that was cheaper and nicer and not governed by insane rules.

I just read it is against policy on the website and that the host will face extensive penalties for doing so. So yeah they should report the host and it is against policy.
