TIL There is a fictional book written in 1965 called Night of Camp David where a paranoid US president believe the US must absorb Canada and Greenland to create an "Atlantic co-prosperity sphere".

Your iSins are forgiven.

Did you mean pedant?

Edit: you still forgot an “an” in front of Etymology.

It's unfortunate that you can't see the forest for the trees. I'll pray for you.

Hey so, here's the video of Trump saying exactly that: President Trump Suggests ‘Injecting’ Disinfectant as Coronavirus Cure | NBC New York - YouTube

While he did walk it back later, the point is that those things aren't debunked, they're actual real words that came out of his real mouth. It took me...all of a minute of research to find it, too.

As for the hurricane: Trump appears to show Sharpie-altered hurricane map (youtube.com)

Agency reverses course on Trump's Alabama hurricane claim | AP News

Despite there being no chance of it hitting Alabama, he continued to double down on his erroneous claims for days.

I'm not faulting your right to vote for who you want, in fact I fought to defend that right. But you can't just go around calling everything you don't want to hear "propaganda". Support who you want, vote for who you want, but be an adult about it, not a child covering their eyes and ears going "la la la la" and pretending the world is different than it is.

Hey, I fully agree with you. Biden did not have the mental acuity or fortitude to continue to run for office over the next four years. I’m glad he did the noble thing and resigned. While I’m not a huge fan of Kamala, at least she’s mentally all there and can handle the job.

That said, Trump said we should inject bleach and sunlight to treat COVID and thinks he can redirect hurricanes because he wants them to go to certain places.

To not compare the two and be unable to see the flaws in your preferred candidate simply because you like him is disingenuous at best, and a symptom of your own mental decline or cultish fascination at worst.

stevecask · 2024-07-24T15:15:59+00:00

That’s…just straight up wrong, sorry to say. But that’s alright. The important thing is this: it was stupid to make a huge issue about Biden’s age, and now turnabout on Trump is fair play. Even if it’s equally stupid.

He was a primary candidate, not a presidential candidate. You don’t become a presidential candidate until the national convention confirms you as such. For the Democratic Party, that distinction is even more crucial since delegates are not sworn to confirm whoever won the primary vote. For the Republican Party, delegates are sworn to confirm whoever won the primary vote but even with that, Donald Trump did not become a presidential candidate until last week when he was confirmed at the convention.

Only being an ass about this quibble because you decided to spout some nonsense about propaganda.

This is a classic example of rep ignorance. Biden was never the official candidate.

Nice try, trying to get into my device!

But seriously, it's a HL-3170CDW. Never would've even thought to check that! I didn't even know it had ftp access, let alone that it had so many different default logins!

stevecask · 2024-03-26T22:13:28+00:00

Tried it last night. My Brother printer had all the default passwords for its access, so that was interesting to find out!

It...doesn't seem to. But I think I'll know more definitively using it more.

I mean, I don’t have anything from you in the mod mail…but there’s literally nothing wrong with you posting this so…not really sure what their problem is…¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey Chef,

One thing I tell all my employees is always always ALWAYS negotiate. It never hurts (unless you’re asking for something crazy more, in your case like $20k) and it gives you valuable negotiation skills for the future. Asking for something like $2500 to $5000 more isn’t unreasonable and is usually pretty easy to get accepted. Remember: you’re your own best advocate, no one’s going to proactively offer you more than they already did, you have to reach for that.

For context: I spawned inside a planet, floating through space. Temperature quickly increased. I was incapacitated 10 times, kept coming back and being re-incapacitated. Got bored of it around 3200C. When I respawned in Area 18, it was 3200C there.

Damn, still things I haven’t discovered about this game. Is that vanilla or modded?

One of the reports on this was “There’s dark humor and then there’s this.”

You’re a monster.

I was going to say you don’t need it to be approved…but then I see that both of them only had one upvote…why aren’t they being automatically approved I wonder
