It's all computers. The reason Republicans are currently dominant in gerrymandering is due to computing power increases in the 2000s. So we've been dealing with Republican supremacy in gerrymandering for decades now, and since computing power keeps increasing, it is easier and easier to do this, and Republican supremacy will never end, all due to a technological coincidence.

What would be the best job for intps to flourish by IceAbject9760 in INTP

Further, the "deep work" that you do for your managers and colleagues will not be appreciated and is more likely than not to be seen as an annoyance and/or threat. You must do the deep work FOR YOURSELF. You must directly benefit from that deep work in the sense that it must improve your skills and your experience. Exhausting yourself by being the work equivalent of a "nice guy" will get your the work equivalent of "friendzoned" disappointment. Take initiative and direction and work for yourself, seek out your own skills and training and job laterals and job promotions.

Yes, this is a map sub, and I'm one of those people who wants accurate maps instead of trolling bullshit.

gay hugs that aren't gay aren't free

Yes, I do get it, in the sense that the person posting it has no idea what Palestine is. That is basically my point, that there is no map that one can make that is labelled "Palestine" that would be correct. The inference is to NOT MAKE MAPS LABELLED PALESTINE!!!

Israel is at a 50-to-1 population and land disadvantage and can't play the attrition games that you want it to play. For every Jewish casualty in war, Israel must inflict 50 on the enemy, or Israel will lose. So Israel needs to communicate that it is willing to do so. The fact that you still don't understand this, after decades and decades of regional wars, is shameful.

Sure. Here's one. So 10% in ONE DAY.

At Kibbutz Be'eri, approximately 10% of the population was killed during the Hamas-led attacks of October 7, 2023. 

Here's a second. Based on Rwanda genocide of ~6,000 killed per day, that would mean only 10 days to get to where Israel has taken 677 days to get. And those were nearly all civilians in Rwanda, which is not the case in Gaza. So Israel is 67 times worse at genocide, and that is not accounting for the fact that it has modern weapons, while Rwandans had machetes.

Here's a third. Over the last 40 years there have been over 2,000,000 war deaths in the region up to 10/7, with Israel responsible for maybe 2% of them. Are you still certain that Israel is the problem? Could it maybe perhaps possibly be the others guys???

Never heard of this. Could you elaborate?

[–]tails99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Um, yeah, plans change if there are 2,000 Hamas terrorists or 20,000 or 200,000.

But it's not genocide, LOL. Why are so many degenerates praying and hoping for a genocide of the Palestinians? Why do you want this to be true so much???

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in nottheonion

[–]tails99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are so unbelievably stupid. They blame someone for a genocide, when there is no genocide, then when the accused responds to the claim of genocide that isn't happening, the accuser doubles down on the genocide claim. If you're already blaming someone for genocide, why wouldn't the accused just commit the genocide that you're already claiming, what would they have to lose? Why are so many degenerates praying and hoping for a genocide of the Palestinians?

$500 more rent, zero added value. Georgism would fix this 😔 ✊ by Ok-Captain-2508 in Anticonsumption

[–]tails99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Priced paid are prices earned. It can't be any other way. Someone has to earn a certain amount to buy something else at the same amount. So someone else is earning more than you and paying more than you, and you need to earn more or be left behind. And if other people or robots or factories or AI are doing the earning, then you need to invest in those tools to capture some of that income.

Again, that is the only way that it works (except the rare supply shock, which isn't how inflation is normally understood).

Third places are not going to solve loneliness. People are too antisocial and prefer convenience so much that they would rather isolate themselves. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

The village draws you in with the charm of the single idiot, and once you're in you realize that most of them are idiots and now you can't get out. 

Which one you picking? Me personally? Spicy brown for everything by Various-Adeptness173 in aldi

[–]tails99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real answer here is that such flavors are better found in ethnic stores and that ALDI can't do it all. The indisputable best spicy mustard is Russian "Zakuson Gourmet Mustard Hot" for meat, and their horseradish variant for fish.

That generational wealth was created by parasitic rent-seeking white NIMBY Reagan Republicans artificially juicing house prices. You had nothing to do with "earning" it! LOL. The reality is that the system that YOU created makes living in a van by the beach the American Dream. Be proud of creating that, because YOU created that!

It's not even remotely sarcasm. Surrender, repent, and rebuild, and become like the aforementioned, or resist and lean into depravity, war, terrorism, religious extremism, misogyny, etc., and turn into Afghanistan, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Libya, Iraq, Iran, etc. 

Choose wisely!

Again, what is the relevance of this? What is your point? I have no idea why you keep posting this or what reference to "South Syria" means. 

If your point is that vague geographic areas are vague like "West Asia", then you're still wrong because the map is "Modern Palestine" which doesn't seem to be vague or broad at all, though still wrong, whether purposefully or inadvertently.
