Tom Emmer drops out of contention for House speaker, hours after winning GOP nomination
  • The right is too far right of the moderates to agree on anything. They need a few purple state moderates to lay down the future of their seat and sit down with the Democrats and work out a compromise. Being in a purple state and you save the house it just might work out for them. Current course is likely to get them all primaried OR replaced with a Democrat next election.

    Umm, GOP: When Did You Become the Pro-Child-Labor Party?
  • This is also the reason that immigrants became "illegal". If they are legal you have to pay them a real wage/benefits/pay taxes for them. If you make them "illegal" you can have very cheap labor (slaves) that can't rat you out or they are deported. They also only give corporations a slap on the wrist when they "had no idea they were illegal". Then the corp just replaces them with "new hires" who are totally "NOT illegal" and starts the process all over until the next time.

  • Five years after killing a journalist in cold blood, Saudi Arabia is stronger than ever
  • It means that the alarm bells went off and people paid more attention to capitalism, and voting in people that actively worked against them, because those elected officials treated people they disliked even worse. Then we got a wanna be dictator that went full "journalists are an enemy of the state" because they say mean (TRUE) things about him. Journalists now choose between being able to eat, or sounding the alarm that costs them a job (and falls on deaf ears).

  • Five years after killing a journalist in cold blood, Saudi Arabia is stronger than ever
  • Probably because in a free from authoritarian government the free press is supposed to be the ultimate checks and balances on personal liberty. When you can't even write something negative about a leader without being dismembered in a hotel and disposed of in duffle bags like trash, that should be ringing alarms for anyone that isn't licking boots.

  • Lemmy/Lemmy-ui rc/beta 0.19.0 broke login on Sync

    As the title states, I'm a silly face and had tried the previous beta versions and it changed the database for userdata and broke logins completely. The new 0.19.0 beta/rc releases of Lemmy and Lemmy-ui have allowed me to login from the web again, but Sync is still broken. I'm not sure if this can be fixed like it was done for the 0.18.4-beta.8 fix or not.

    I'm also going to try and resist the urge to run beta when 0.19.0 goes release so I won't have this issue. ¯\\\(ツ)\

    Donald Trump committed fraud for years by inflating his worth to banks and insurers, a New York judge finds
  • He also allegedly liked busting in on sub-18 year olds at those pageants as well. He also allegedly had a long history of using "illegal aliens" as labor so he wouldn't have to pay them and they had no recourse.

    Listen/watch episode 300A & 300B of The Dollop podcast on Trump and be amazed he went this long without someone (he couldn't counter-sue away) bringing charges.

  • Journalism fails miserably at explaining what is really happening to America
  • Agreed, when you can look and see one side has the support of the KKK, Proud Boys, and the 3%ers on top of chanting "Jews will not replace us" and dubbed "very fine people" by the leader of said party. And on top of that they also have those that believe in Jewish space lasers, lizard people, and pedophiles everywhere drinking children's blood. They believe in the "attack on Christmas" and Jews bringing Armageddon where they will all be saved.

    If you can look at any of that and be like, "well the other side..." then you have chosen a side already, and it's not center. It's probably also time for some self reflection if that isn't who you are.

  • Sorry as someone with ADHD and Autism, my need to have all the facts but not being able to wait for people to eventually get there is sometimes near impossible and is a constant internal struggle. This is especially bad/difficult at work.

  • PSA - Careful you aren't blocking new domains

    Just a PSA that if you using something other than your ISP for DNS that you may want to double-check that you aren't blocking new domains (< 30 days old), or if you are, you may want to add all the new Lemmy domains to your allowlist.

    I have this checked in NextDNS and was wondering why I couldn't see certain sites, and looking at the logs I had a yureka! moment.
