The evidence is why he’s losing but unlike Rs any D or progressive has to actually follow the rules which generally are to not work while things are hashed out in court. I wonder if anti-SLAPP laws could be applied against the delayer in some way.

I mean the current guys, yeah. But there must be some point where there’s enough good guys that you would so the answer isn’t always no and you should do what you can towards reaching that point.

If the answer is always no, how can the constitution be improved? Putting donor limits into the constitution for example would be better than as a more easily repealed law. Putting the rights to, clean water, healthcare, and privacy would also be ideally added to a modernized constitution.

“Somehow” being plants using it in photosynthesis and then it going up the trophic food chain.

He was infamous for just delaying until the plaintiff was out of money.

The Florida legislature and DeSantis did actually waste their time doing so in February, 2026 yes. Prior it was called PBI.

DJT had sued PBI over flight paths going over mar a lago in 2015 which was dropped after the 2016 election made it a pseudo no-fly zone by default.

The people uturning are just trying to go straight lol. They have to turn right, merge left, u turn, merge right, and turn right, in order to go straight. Others are trying to turn left which here involves a u turn, merge right, turn right.

Only for corporations and the wealthy not for us plebs.

Since MAGA is the majority of US governance MAGA is the US to anyone outside of the country. Same as Russia or Israel can be blamed for the wars against neighbors, no one cares that there is internal resistance unless it can actually do something.

Yet, hybrid vehicles and EVs continue to gain market share. Sure theres a lot of idiots who just want a big truck to stroke their own ego but even those are starting to become hybrid or electric. There’s been a downturn on full EVs after the tax credit expiration but hybrids are still growing strong and the only real benefit to a hybrid vs generic ICE is fuel economy.

EVs need incentives and rebates because they are an extra consideration for other reasons, primarily range and charging availability remaining a concern. Also media scares of EV car fires and battery life, etc.

I think it is a lost cause. Seems like he made it clear he wanted to move at a faster pace physically and wasn’t willing to slow down. That’s a red flag and he’s taken himself out, I wouldn’t get hung up on it or question yourself.

No, I just know better than to believe that the bad people can be anything other than bad. They’ve repeatedly proven that these bad things are what they want. What is the compromise? “I’ll give you another billion if you promise to let the federal agencies actually do their job again?” They’ll take the money and still leave the agencies non-functional just because they know their word is meaningless and they get off on you expecting/begging them to be reasonable.

Its a paradox of tolerance situation.

It’s not because you want a functional government its that you’re trying to justify compromise with modern nazis. Especially on lemmy you’re not going to have much support for any compromise position in the first place, then with fascists all anyone can see is how far right parties are enabled and take over a country as happened with the Nazis in Germany.

So long as rfk is there no chance

Generally hasn’t been IT making these decisions. Same as cloud fundamentally just meaning offsite storage someone else owns. The PR push about how it somehow is not that was/is massive.

The momentum of cross functionality is also massive. There exist many programs and websites that do not accept non-microslop files.

A lot of the stuff you’re mentioning is basically worthless. Given that he has time he can get prices probably around ebay or goodwill value.

Working CRTs can sometimes go for a bit because of retro gamers.

The more common companies for reselling is for the company to charge you for removal because they will take unresellable junk as well. They are usually the option when selling/donation is not and disposal is more of a pain otherwise. I had to get rid of damaged couches and other furniture recently and to get a dumpster would have been like 500 and then id have to get it in there myself whereas the company charged 600 and they removed it without my help.

Mattresses are usually not resellable and it might even be illegal to do so because of regulations to limit bedbugs.

Music players probably obsolete 0-50. Cutlery set under whatever Costco charges for a set so like 10 unless they are actually silver or something. China and coffee maybe 10-20 per set. China may not sell as younger gen doesnt really use. Lamps 10-20. Books magazines and clothing selling by box/bag you can probably do 10-20 per.

Decent furniture can go for a bit even if the buyer has to transport but 10-20% of original value seems about right.

Ethanol has about 30% less energy per liter than gasoline. So a 10% ethanol:gasoline mix has about 3% less possible energy than 100% gasoline. That carries over into the mileage. and its worse in cold weather. Newer engines do use it better but you can’t beat basic energy density.

40% of corn in the US is used for ethanol production. Its a shitton of other resources including land, fertilization, etc in order to do so.

They’re wiping their assess with the constitution written words mean nothing to them either.

Jim Crow only existed because whites were able to threaten and prevent blacks from voting (Thanks, Johnson).

Hitler basically had a coup handed to him but stayed technically “elected” again via fear and fraud.

There’s a lot of crazy shit Republicans are doing and courts are allowing that should be unthinkable.

So the reflection is essentially what the sulfur in diesel used to do. Diesel is now ultralow sulfur because it was learned that low sulfur diesel greatly reduced the particulate and ozone precursor (not good to breathe in) emission from diesel engines.

Baking soda seems safe but doing it globally where it would 1)affect clouds and rain, 2) when it falls alter water and soil chemistry and be breathed in would cause yet unknown harms. Making that much baking soda would also increase greenhouse and probably have effects on aircraft longevity-again causing more greenhouse.

Similarly corn ethanol that is added to gas in the US reduces fuel efficiency and increases greenhouse because the corn is made for purpose and subsidized rather than just excess.

The alternatives are reduced greenhouse via reduction of fossil fuel subsidies combined with renewables and infrastructure to mitigate and survive the changes.
