MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’3·3 months agoTry again. It’s the 4th paragraph.
Last month, a federal judge blocked the Biden administration-era SAVE plan, an income-driven student loan replacement program with 8 million borrowers, claiming it lacked the authority to forgive millions of dollars in debt. In response, the Trump administration paused all applications for income-driven repayment plans and online loan consolidation, leaving some borrowers in limbo struggling to make ends meet.

MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto Cross stitch and embroidery@sh.itjust.works•my recent finished project.2·4 months agoWould you have a pattern you can share by any chance?
Oh I knew that’s why they were saying it, I just wanted to see what their asinine justification for the stance would have been had they responded.
Can I ask your reason for wanting this? (Preferably not just “their parents aren’t citizens, why should they be?”)

MetaCubed@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•US has a problem that starts with G and ends with REED14·6 months agoSimilar to the other person that replied to you, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Some provinces have relatively crappy healthcare (looking at you, Alberta), but these outcomes are directly cause by conservative Premiers cutting funding to the system and policies that restrict immigrant doctors from being licensed with the schooling, experience, and licensing that was received in their country of origin.
Despite all of this, I don’t wait grossly long in the emergency room if I have to go, I’m able to get a doctor for prescriptions, and I have clinics I can go to if I need non-critical care. All of it free (excluding medication, dental and some other critical items)
Class solidarity and material analysis are also core concepts that influence that rational thinking. You wouldn’t chastise a serf for cheering the death of a lord tyrant, would you?
MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Maybe we need some sort of 'kibbutz' plan as a last resort for homeless people?41·7 months agoPerhaps helping them would improve the situation. Give them housing, voluntary treatment, and treat them like people, and you’ll find they’re just like you and me.
MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming•'I want to acknowledge that we messed up': NZXT addresses concerns about its controversial Flex gaming PC rental program and commits to taking actionEnglish5·7 months ago- Buy an external HDD
- backup any data you have on the rental computer
- bite the bullet that you probably won’t have a computer for a bit
- wipe the rental computer
- then put the amount spent each month on the rental into savings and buy and own a better computer with actually new hardware
MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto Canada•Canadian police brace for 'worst-case scenario' of asylum-seekers fleeing Trump101·8 months agoVancouver is quite expensive, I’ll be honest. If you are okay with a commute, you can live in surrey, Langley, or even abbotsford/chilliwack. Long commute to Vancouver, but anywhere from 10-30+% cheaper rent last I checked.
Canada should be seen as a time-delayed America in a cultural+political sense. A thing that happens in america will generally occur in a similar manner 1-10 years later here. Our Liberal and NDP (Progressive) parties continually move further to the right at differing paces, and all of our parties & leaders have major issues (in differing amounts):
Trudeau (LPC) is a proven corrupt man who has abandoned the working class more every time he shuts down a major strike (every major strike).
Poilievre (CPC) is a less charismatic, cryptofascistic version of trump, and is very likely to win the next national elsction. This could be any time between tomorrow and Oct 20, 2025 and could be catastrophic for Canadians.
Singh (NDP) is a very lovely man, but has a tendency to make decisions that give his party less bargaining power (See: canceling supply and trade agreement without trying to use it as a threat first)
MetaCubed@lemmy.worldto Canada•Some say it's time for Canada to criminalize residential school denialism13·8 months agoParadox of intolerance to some extent. Residential school denialism in politics and media is still negatively impacting public perception of indigenous people.
It is possible I misunderstood, who knows
I think they were talking about electoral votes lol
In military/national defense contexts, it’s usually referring to General Infantry
