Are you sick of oligarchs ruining your life, democracy, and the planet itself? Maybe support those fighting them by not buying Amazon stuff right now and committing to honor the Amazon Teamster strikers…

As I understand this, if the bill isn't passed lots of people who rely on the Federal Government will have a shit Xmas?

But it's all fun and games when you're an elite, protected from it all.....

I cannot believe I am asking this question:

If I tell Windows to show the desktop, and it doesn't show the desktop.

Is there a way to empty the recycle bin without being able to access the desktop.

Can I do it from an Explorer.exe window. Can I do it from the command line. From the start bar.

A veces me pregunto cuál seria la historia y la reacción mediática si Gisele P. Hubiera asesinado a su esposo al enterarse de la historia horrorosa de abuso a la que fue sometida.

Estoy completamente segura que no seria glorificada como Luigi M.

Thank you @EUCommission for protecting me from the #AI shitstorm and making companies scared to launch in #Europe

You can pinpoint where America started to turn in on itself and eat it's own tail.

This batshit clown nation needs to be isolated and shunned, it's no ally now.

Turn our backs on it, a selfish nazi disgrace that'll drag us down with it if we don't.

A political feedback loop as right and far-right parties promote fossil fuels:

In several developed countries,
"democracy’s failure to deal with the causes of the climate crisis has opened the way for ultranationalists to score points by focusing on the consequences, particularly migration. The far right no longer denies climate change, it uses it as a bogeyman to frighten voters and argue for stronger barriers to keep out refugees."
And gain power.

Time for the annual re-posting of this fucking awesome Guyliner article. The only thing you need to read on Fairytale of New York.

can anyone weigh in on switch emulation on steam deck? The switch 2’s game library is awesome, but I hate the idea of giving Nintendo money

Whenever "AI safety" people release a paper about how dangerously smart "AI" is, read it as an ad for OpenAI et al. It's just criti-hype. And no, those stochastic parrots do not "scheme" or "think" or anything

@babe one for you. Done a print for frog Friday.

back in 2004, through my employer, had #UnitedHealthCare. Got kidney stone, embedded, was not going to pass. UHC refused my doc's advice, wouldn't pay, so I had to go to East Jefferson, which had a traveling van. They tried to CHEAP out. YES, a VAN, pulled up to loading dock, they wheeled me out. I could literally wave to cars on W Esplanade. It didn't work, cracked stone, no pass. Finally, thanks to my Doc, #UHC so graciously agreed for me to go to #Tulane and lithotripsy worked. SO.. UHC paid for TWO procedures, put me through TWO procedures. When all they had to do was approve my Doc's 1st advice.
