And Dell said “Great, thanks, saved us a ton on severance packages and allowed us to replace our high paid tenured employees with hungry graduates who are prepared to work themselves to death for peanuts”

They will still be short staffed and overworked. The company isn’t outsourcing the drive through out of the kindness of their hearts in order to lighten the workload on the employees.

Is that what it takes to get two different desktop orientations using Linux?

I couldn’t resist

You could use Windows 11 from Microsoft, it can do both landscape and portrait.

I get the concern that small landlords will sell to big corpos who can handle the thinner margin, but for those smaller landlords that have paid off their property, or bought 10+ years ago, the margins are already super high, so the 3% cap isn’t going to cause them to sell when they have a $1200 mortgage and are collecting $2800 in rent, or no mortgage at all in many cases so pure profit more or less

Because it feels good to shout fuck Donald trump once in a while.

If you don’t like it then go somewhere else.

If I wanted to polarize, I would be on truth social shouting fuck trump, not on Lemmy.

It’s the billionaires that shape the world, not you and me.

The world you would rather live in is not the world you actually live in.

If you get upset when you read naughty words or read an opinion you don’t agree with, then grow up and go fuck yourself.

I can say whatever the fuck I want to say and your opinion doesn’t mean shit to me.

Trump is a piece of shit and I will be glad when he is gone.

Wake me up when this piece of shit is dead or in prison.

Modern American liberalism is democratic socialism and that’s what it has meant since FDR…

"In the United States, liberalism is associated with the welfare-state policies of the New Deal programme of the Democratic administration of Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt, whereas in Europe it is more commonly associated with a commitment to limited governmentand laissez-faire economic policies."Consequently, the ideas of individualism and laissez-faire economics previously associated with classical liberalism are key components of modern American conservatism and movement conservatism, and became the basis for the emerging school of modern American libertarian thought.

This doesn’t mean that liberalism = conservatism.

This is a really insightful argument you have proposed. am going to have to give it a lot of thought because it’s so sophisticated and well thought out/communicated. You should be proud of yourself.

That study, which is admittedly a bit above my pay grade, says that more study is needed. It doesn’t say that diabetes has been cured, which is the headline that media outlets have chosen.

My only point was that if diabetes was actually cured, everyone would know about it, not just you and me.

Maybe you should try putting a stick in your ass

Careful, your ad hominem is showing

How would reading Cell Discovery increase my chances of hearing about a cure to one of the world’s most pervasive afflictions on some obscure Lemmy post, and more puzzling, how would reading Cell Discovery make it more likely that some wild medical claim with far reaching implications would both be true and also absent from every other news source? What kind of magic does this Cell Discovery have?

You just said that liberals are hardcore capitalists despite the fact that liberals are the ones pushing for a hybrid socialist democracy where key industries are socialized so that rampant corruption, which is an effect of the invisible hand, can be avoided. You go on to say that liberal means conservative.

Phrases like ‘we are living in a post truth world’ are a self fulfilling prophecy for those who use that phrase… for the rest of us you just sound like a far-right provocateur.

It appears you are either very confused or you are a dishonest interlocutor and are completely full of shit.

Sad

What the fuck is up with this thumbnail

The headline isn’t ’early stage clinical trial starts the multi-decade process of developing a cure for diabetes’… the headline reads ‘diabetes has been cured’

Alls I’m saying is that if the headline as written were true, we would be hearing it from all news sources at once, not just some single post on a somewhat obscure news aggregator.
