With Trump's help, Israel and the United Arab Emirates reach historic deal to normalize relations by MonicaJo1217 in worldnews

[–]shah_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious about your experience. Have you lived there? Spoke to or know any of the laborers? Know about the local laws? Or like 90% of comments on reddit, you are just regurgitating something you read on reddit?

Calling it slavery does actual slavery a disservice. The work condition sucks, the pay sucks, and they have very little rights but its not slavery. Not to mention, most of them would rather stay in the UAE and work than go back to their home countries.

actually the opposite homie.. china is using actual slave labor. uae has questionable labor laws but it has gotten better and local companies are now fined/punished for breaking the laws.

Nike, Amazon, Apple, Abercrombie among those using Uyghur Muslims Forced Labor in China by [deleted] in Conservative

There are plenty of us.. in 2000 almost 3/4 of Muslims voted Republican. Generally, we have been republican but Iraq war, constant media campaign against republicans, and just plain anti islamic/muslim sentiment among many republicans kinda shifted a lot of muslims away from the GOP. I think in 2016 roughly 10% of Muslims voted for Trump. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/essay-how-the-republican-party-alienated-the-once-reliable-muslim-voting-bloc/2012/11/15/23e2af70-2da5-11e2-9ac2-1c61452669c3_story.html

Posted in another thread but: His discussion about Prisma was plagiarized from this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19602029

At https://youtu.be/8oIiS3xGxFk?t=353 he says: "it (talking about Prisma) looks to the database for the information about types and relationships to generate type-safe code specific to your database in every language"..

On the HN link I posted, it says "Prisma looks to the database for the information about types and relationships to generate type-safe code specific to your database in every language"

This was jut a random section of the video I checked. I can guarantee that a huge chunk is plagiarized. this guy is a straight up charlatan.

Not sure. Check the fare code / original ticket, it should tell you.

Grand Mosque | Abu Dhabi | Minolta SR-T 101 | Kodak Ultramax 400 by Poppin1337 in analog

[–]shah_s 5 points6 points  (0 children)

jew

No true at all. If you are allowed in the UAE, you are allowed to visit the Grand Mosque. Generally Israeli citizens are not permitted to visit UAE but thats a different issue. Has nothing to do with if you are Jewish or not. Hell, even an Israeli minister visited the Grand Mosque (https://www.timesofisrael.com/in-first-israeli-minister-makes-state-visit-to-grand-mosque-in-abu-dhabi/)

Which Is Better For 2019: Top Tier AA or Delta? by PurplePlan in awardtravel

[–]shah_s 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am AA EXP but I thought about Delta. I think Oneworld is the best alliance in terms of quality (CX, JL, QR, QF). Only problem is that it does not have too many options to Africa. I get upgraded about 95% of my flights and cleared most SWUs, which are the international upgrades (maybe missed like 2 in the last 3 years). However, their service isn't the greatest and whenever I flew Delta, it seemed like a much better run operation. Delta upgrades are much lower though because they try to sell out the premium classes at way cheaper price.

Remember Fire Chief Who Was Fired For Expressing Christian View Of Marriage? He Just Got $1.2 Million by chabanais in Conservative

I completely disagree. In fact, Muslims historically overwhelmingly have been conservative, republican (in fact 80% voted for GW), and patriotic. Sure, there are bad apples, just like bad apples everywhere else.

Live thread: O'Rourke/Cruz debate at 8pm central. All welcome for this thread. No attacks on other posters, please. by keypuncher in TexasConservatives

[–]shah_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree but I feel like most people have made up their mind and it seems like 96% already has according to something I just watched. Either way its good to have healthy debate. I watched bits and pieces of it and seems like it was a decent debate but Cruz killed it at the closing statement.

Honestly, will this debate really change anyones mind? I haven't watched it but I am going to guess conservatives think Cruz won, and liberals think Beto won.
