Please. It could cost $300B by the time it's built but we need this. I think we can put 21st century investment in what's currently an early 20th century system.

Unfair for what, Pierre?

The Liberals are morally obligated to let the Conservatives glide into power, it's only fair?

It's unfair that the Liberals choosing a new leader would weaken your one-trick "axe the tax, Fuck Trudeau" campaign? That's what's called a "skill issue", bud.

This is ripped straight from not just the Republican playbook but from the book of Trump ass-wipes also.

Likes: the small community, traditional forum vibe. No ads, no oppressive corporate hand to keep things advertiser-friendly. Interests and views tend to align, but I can have a healthy disagreement on many issues with most users here. Only a few famous borderline trollish users that aren't fun to chat with, most overt trolls are quickly dealt with.

Dislikes: heavy use of downvoting simply unpopular opinions (a mild annoyance). Difficult to pick between posting in a rarely active niche community and a very active but general community (sometimes I just crosspost). The threat of centralization, with Lemmy.world and Lemmy.ml having by far the largest communities (I would like to see more active communities spread across sites, though I make an effort sometimes to comment on different servers). Some big features I'd like to see that still seem far from implementation, such as multi-communities.

Roughly how far (km, hours or towns over) is your nearest "Vkusno I Tochka", former McDonald's restaurant? Has the quality changed over the last couple years?

Good news for Trump, they've got an upgrade now, it's called X (short for Xitter).

Illegal Immigrant: It's okay, Trump isn’t talking about me he's talking about foreign people not in the US. Make Mexico pay for the wall!

Temporary immigrant: It's okay, Trump isn’t talking about me he's talking about visa-less illegal immigrants. Those are the dangerous hombres, not me.

Legal immigrant/Permanent Residents: it's okay, Trump's team is only going to revoke temporary migrant visas. Those people need to go through the proper channels and suffering like I did, shortcuts are unfair!

Puerto Ricans who are literally Americans born and raised: It's okay, I'm an actual American, Trump's not talking about me! They're letting too many immigrants from other countries!!

Puerto Ricans after they realize Trump thinks they are immigrants from another country: 😳

That's great, get out, vote, get anyone you know who shows any revulsion from this political division to vote for unity. That's how Dems win, the polls don't dictate the elections, voters do by making the effort and taking the time to vote.

In contrast, Trump's closing message is "I hope you like me and my group of people who constantly trash America's name, because brown woman bad"

No worries, Trump's your guy, Puerto Ricans. It's just crass humor, look at how well he has taken care of you!

He wouldn't hesitate to bring funding to meet Puerto Rico's needs!

I think I encountered a bug, replied to the wrong thread... meant to be a comment for the above.

The wording makes sense, but resumé training I have taken has emphasized starting lines with action words that show where your experiences and accomplishments are.

Your election process may vary, but usually mail in ballots are in a certification envelope with your name, address, and often a declaration of eligibility, voter signature and witness. Digital methods may have a barcode encoding this information, easily readable only by an election official.

That identification can be used to trace your ballot if damaged/lost and to check for eligibility and that you only voted once.

The contents are then removed from the certification envelope and the secrecy envelope containing the ballot is added with other votes and anonymised.

Immich is an open source self-hosted in-development tool to manage image libraries from a central server, and sync/distribute them across your devices, as an alternative to Google Photos. Also see: https://immich.app

The important news here is that FUTO has funded full time development on Immich for 3 years.

In 1974, Ivan Illich wrote that the typical American male spent 25% of his waking life either driving a car or working for the income required to pay for one. 50 years later, is this true? And, which cities consume the most -- and least -- of our time with driving?
