May you all rot in hell.

They’ve strayed so far from the teachings of their own god, I’m fairly certain that’s the biblically prescribed punishment.

Grats Saba! Now on to 2M!

Ugh. Fine, take it.

I must have been looking away, when it happened, truely unfortunate.

This is a problem that’s been brewing for a long time. Their business model is untenable at the scale they’re at without relying on near slave labour. Their massive profits come more from scale, than absolute margin, so if they actually payed a living wage they’d be in the red.

So now y’all will have to wait until the coming food shortages drive up prices before the pay is enough to interest other Americans that’d otherwise have no interest in those sorts of jobs.

The owners won’t play ball without getting their pound of flesh.

In that case, by all means. But deport him through the proper channels, not ICE nonsense.

As much as I’d enjoy the schadenfreude, you’re right. It’s impossible to take a principled stance if you only enforce it when it suits you.

I’m not sure why your so dismissive of it. It’s a heuristic that exists for a reason. Maybe you should read the wikipedia article linked above so you understand why that is.

You realise the article itself suggests that the answer to the question is in fact “no”, right? (That is to say, it agrees with Betteridges’s law.)

And that carbon capture is often pushed by the oil industry as a magic bullet?

And that we often get headlines that look an awful lot like this that are trying to push an agenda which says “Yes, it’s fine, big oil has everything under control. No need for any climate action,” right?

I’m not sure why you’re being a jackass towards people who you likely agree with.

If nobody votes for the party that actually represents their interests, then shockingly the party that represents their interests will not have a shot. It’s a self-defeating strategy.

“Strategic” voting is a long term recipe for a US-style system where there’s only room for two parties.

I think every time I switch freezers, I have to learn the lesson again. Maybe the vision of the particular freezer I’m using splattered in gooey cola tar is enough reminder, but with a different freezer, the trauma is no longer with it.

Maybe in theory, but liberals never reciprocate. We gave up multiple incumbent ridings to the Conservatives because people voted for Carney instead of the incumbent NDP, who were IMO better candidates.

I’d keep going with GQuuux. This is my intro to the Gundam franchise as well, and there’s a lot of back story I’m missing, but if you can tough it out and just focus on Machu and Nyaan’s story, it’ll still be pretty worthwhile. (Disclaimer, I’m only up to ep 11)

That’s what I said after they fucked us on electoral reform. Being a principled voter is the correct pragmatic decision in the long term.

ABC results in US two-party system.

I sincerely hope you learn something from this. This is the Liberal m.o. and has been for years. They’re a big business party, and don’t have typical Canadian’s interests at heart. Their most redeeming feature is that they’re not the Cons.

If you actually care about bettering the lives of typical Canadians, then look at what parties have track records of getting results. (Hint: A lot of Canadians just got dental care.)

Let’s be honest, that’s what they say, but it’s a half truth. The other half is that solving your problem even when it’s 100% their fuckup still costs them money, so they want you to jump through hoops of fire to get what you fairly deserve.

It’s just another b.s. form of gouging the customer.

One can of pop exploding in there was enough to traumatize me into never forgetting again.

Lemmy is filled with thigh-sock wearing, Arch-using catbois isn’t it?

Mreww :3

Man, what a defeatist attitude. “If I can’t fix everything, why even bother to make small changes for the better.”

Edit: Oh, I see. This is a shitpost. Nice b8 m8, then. Ya got me.

I think studies that look at the article’s response are going to give a very different outcome than the real world result. The heuristic exists because a lot of news is overhyped halfsense trying to generate clicks (or draw eyeballs in the pre-digital world). So even if the article suggests a yes answer, a no outcome is still probably more likely.
