Crossing the fucking floor is a neon flashing sign she's not a member of the tribe. It's a sign that she'll backstab and sell out at a moments notice.

I can't believe she was elected. She crossed the fucking floor and what 8 years later all is forgiven and she's elected.

Is that different than binding arbitration?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

That's not really 3rd party then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

It is going to arbitration, which seems like a funny way to resolve it but yeah.

So when you read a tweet (an X? Xpost?), can you select to read all the proposed "added context"?

[–] [email protected] 44 points 4 weeks ago (5 children)

So how does the "readers added context" work? They vote for shows up?

Had to think about this but I don't think an island is considered an exclave.

The reason for this is because it is entirely surrounded by water, not another piece of land. Islands are not usually considered to be exclaves.

https://homework.study.com/explanation/is-hawaii-an-exclave.html it's paywalled but the answer came through on google.

The island is right beside both Canadian and Denmark (greenland) land, so it's not exactly isolated or surrounded by either.

Canada now has a land border with Denmark. Have fun with that.

Has anybody ever seen the movie “Gangs of New York?” That’s what I’m talking about. We know that when you have these massive ethnic enclaves forming in our country, it can sometimes lead to higher crime rates. .... things like what we’ve done over the last few years, which is have 20-25 million illegal aliens just setting up shop here with no control, no enforcement, and no real ability to police what’s going on. That is a disaster.

Worth reading the whole quote, the article goes right to it.

DJI FlyCart 30

I can't ever take the word perilous seriously.

Pretty cool, worth the watch. They don't show the size very well, with arms folded in fits in the back of a pickup. 30 kg with one battery, 40 kg with 2 batteries, hot swap battery, 16 km range, 20 m/s (72 km/h), 6000 m ceiling, record and repeat flight paths.

Looks like they think the chinese delivery market will be huge.

It is not exactly clear when and where the video was taken, nor who exactly “they” were. According to a BBC report earlier this year almost 350 Russian fighters, ground attack aircraft and tactical bombers have been shot down over the battlefield during the last two and a half years. These have been by both Ukrainian air defense assets and “friendly fire” incidents.

 

I found this fascinating, and interesting history.

Or to load a whole bunch at once so you can Ctrl+F? I used to use RES on the other site to do that.

 

I use an old mixed nuts container.

Maximum, that is.

1 child policy from 1979 to 2015.

2 child policy from 2015 to 2021.

3 child policy since 2021.

The announcement came after the release of the results of the Seventh National Population Census, which showed that the number of births in mainland China in 2020 was only 12 million, the lowest number of births since 1960, and the further aging of the population, against which the policy was born.[5] This was the slowest population growth rate China experienced.[6]

Although the CCP government had high expectations for the new policy,[16] in a 2021 online poll conducted by the state media Xinhua on its Weibo account, using the hashtag #AreYouReady for the new three-child policy, about 29,000 out of 31,000 respondents stated they would "never consider it."[15]

Act of Congress? So he would need majority of both houses and get rid of the filibuster?

Failing that, Executive action?
