Okay, I'll hear you out. What details do you need clarified to be concerned that ICE is interrupting court to arrest people?

If there's no on/off switch, it means it just goes to sleep and never truly turns off. Low power mode is nice for people who forget to turn things off, but it's still draining the battery to monitor the sensors, so it doesn't make a lot of sense for something that's not used frequently.

The calipers remind me of my earbuds, which are always jostling in the case and disconnecting from the charging pins. I can be in the car and my music will suddenly stop playing on the radio because my earbuds came loose, connected, and took bluetooth priority. It's irritating, and if anybody has a fix, let me know.

Okay, so as a teenager I was a super nerd and got into swords. I took olympic style fencing lessons first, then got into the ren faire and also did some stage combat. Sadly, I have health problems and I couldn't keep my knees in place, and had to quit. The difference between those is probably the same difference between WWE style wrestling, and BJJ. One is done with choreography, one is a competition.

They're both sports. I don't understand why people think the choreography somehow means it doesn't have skills or rules? It was the same skillset, different rules. Stage combat was unpadded and used heavier weapons that left more bruises when we fucked up the choreography. They're different, sure, but the amount of overlap is underappreciated.

Because they need to sell papers?

Yeah, and that account was created specifically to complain about AI

Nice, proof that this is indeed an AI bot account, just repeating itself.

You're AI slop

It's from a federal law passed under the Bush administration, tying funding to standardized testing scores.

But it was bipartisan, so you're not wrong.

Gotta love how many self-identified leftists we have that are actually confused authoritarians.

My girl got some bad pica, always eating the rocks I give her

You say it's concerning an ape would look like that?

If capitalists didn't value the accumulation of wealth over consumption, they'd be in favor of wage increases. If they really did want us to consume more, they'd let us have more money to spend, knowing it's going back into their pockets.

This is also colored by my experiences being homeless when the avocado toast thing was going around. I didn't have regular internet access, so I don't remember seeing the memes and media against it, but I do remember how regular society grabbed onto it and ran. I remember hearing avocado toast jokes about me from the people behind me in line when I was using food stamps, and that just strikes me as something that wouldn't happen if the ruling class actually valued consumption.
