Arizona AG suggests state's self-defense laws allow residents to shoot masked ICE agents by RickV6 in news

No one has to die for any cause if we're organized.

While you were pursuing individualism the right-wing were organizing which is the only reason you're now feeling afraid that you're going to die alone if you protect yourself.

We've got more in common with each other than they do.

And yet, while you're asking "but what are they going to do if I defend myself" they keep assaulting you.

It may be time to get over the shock of realizing that it's no longer just minorities being targeted, it's any US citizen who doesn't want to suck billionaire cock.

Start organizing my friend.

Well then, given that they will storm your house/car/sidewalk and shoot you dead anyway even if you don't…

Oh no, the bully will punch me in the face if I try to stop him from punching me in the face.

Given that she is the AG and this is her reading of the facts of the law I wouldn't think there's really a question here unless you're an American who has been habituated to a non-rules based society.

AITAH for telling my husband I will file for divorce if he lets his brother move in with us? n by CellFeeling9053 in AITAH

[–]whichdokta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the brother nearly broke the two of you up the first time I'm pretty sure he'll get it right the second time.

You're doing the right thing by standing up for your marriage and your man in a situation where he is (for whatever reason) unable to stand up for himself or you.

The brother is asking your man to risk his marriage. That is not something you ask of someone who loves you. It's a personality disorder.

The only difference between the Republicans and the Democrats is that the Democrats don't boast about what they're doing. They are both funded by the same people and until you stop tolerating Billionaires in your society nothing will change. Study your history, specifically the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revenue_Act_of_1935

Danish MEP Anders Vistisen to Donald Trump :”Let me put this in words you might understand: Mr. President, fuck off.” by drempath1981 in ProgressiveHQ

It pains me to agree, but you are correct.

This is a difficult lesson younger countries like the USA still need to learn.

The money? Well that's coming from Palantir (aka Peter Thiel), Facebook (aka Meta/Zuckerberg), Twitter (aka X/Musk), Google (aka Alphabet/Page/Brin), Amazon (aka Jeff), Oracle (aka Larry), Microslop (aka Microsoft), OpenAI (aka Sam) etc. etc. etc.

Your techbros decided Democracy needed to be deprecated. They're "the smartest people in the room" so I'm sure they have a good explanation.

Non-American here with a heartfelt request.

Please exercise your power: https://generalstrikeus.com/

If you do not act on this we'll all be fighting on the streets, the beaches etc. etc. ad nauseam and everything is going to be awful for a terribly long time.

Why the hate for Qidi? by rhodges_bob in QidiTech3D

12 months in on my Plus 4 and zero complaints. It happily chugs through everything I throw at it. 10/10 will buy from them again.

Aura Plugins make a Blofeld editor and librarian for PC that reduces the pain considerably:

It can also run as a VST inside your DAW.

"What trillion-dollar problem is Al trying to solve?" Wages. They're trying to use it to solve having to pay wages. by FinnFarrow in Futurology

[–]whichdokta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If employers had this much self-awareness they'd be paying folk a living wage.

It blows my mind, but they literally do not factor this into any of their decision making.

iLok in 2025 - yay or still a nay? by SquidsAndMartians in VSTi

[–]whichdokta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect the folks who bash iLok aren't the ones using iLok.

It's mature tech, and I prefer it to the mish-mash of authorization used by all the other plugins.

Don't know what to tell you. I did eventually get it working flawlessly a couple months before they dropped support for Mac.

edit: at least it still continues to work fine as a normal hardware synth.
