“let pass”… . is there some major confusion about how presidential vetoes work here, or what do you even mean?

Okay Lemmy, I wanna know if this is just a me thing or if anyone else has this experience.
Like the meme I don’t generally remember my dreams for long after being awake. But! As I’m drifting off to sleep I start remembering things that feel like my previous dreams. Sometimes they seem to be dreams I had years ago.
Anyone else? Do you suppose I’m actually remembering recent or old dreams, or is this some kind of deja vu thing? Is there some separate memory space where all my dream memories are kept?
Lmao what is this edge-lord shit?
Linux is a great server OS. It’s an okay desktop OS.
“Big” is not a negative adjective. “Truck” is not (mostly) an identity or demographic group. You’d have to make up some term like maybe “murder trucks” to get close to an analogy. Would you not suppose that someone who advocated against “murder trucks” thought trucks were bad?
“Crowded” - maybe mildly negative. “Places” - not an identity or demographic.
“Toxic” - Ok. “People” - This hardly seems like an identity or demographic. Maybe if martians start talking about “toxic humans” we’d have an analogy.
And that whole last paragraph is just a straw man.
Let’s consider some real analogies.
“Poisonous Hinduism” “Virulent Femininity” “Malignant Jewishness” “Destructive Liberalism” “Pestilent Blackness” “Dangerous Queerness”
I literally just looked up synonyms for toxic and picked random identity groups. Could you imagine trying to make any of these phrases academic terms?
Seems like this has been in the works for a while https://stateline.org/2024/04/04/after-a-long-slog-climate-change-lawsuits-will-finally-put-big-oil-on-trial/
I was flying home with a snow globe souvenir one day. TSA had to huddle with their team and a calculator to figure out the volume of a sphere on the spot. I don’t know if the volume ended up being under the limit or they just gave up.
You know I had this same thought just the other day, and decided to look up some numbers to see just how comparable the situations really are. What I found was that the number of people attempting to cross the US southern border is like four times as many as have tried to cross into Europe, per year. No I didn’t bookmark the source, but you should be able to Google it up like I did. I don’t know why this is a much bigger problem in the US, but it does seem to be.
Doomerism is a vibe. You’re gonna have a hard time talking people down around these parts.
People don’t hate on Epic because their store has content. They hate on Epic because they tried to buy market share with exclusivity deals. Nobody wants PC gaming to turn into the streaming services.
A truly poor analogy. LLMs don’t remove anything from anywhere. They consume no shared resource.
It’s been wild watching people flail about searching for arguments for why LLMs should be stopped. I’m not even saying they shouldn’t, just that I haven’t seen a solid argument for it.
Teddy bears smashing imperial armor with log traps was when Star wars jumped the shark IMHO.
It’s hilarious how many different definitions of fascism I see on Lemmy on a given day
Oh good, a petition.
This is not communism.
I mean, it’s an mtx-free, drm-free, full feature game. If BG3 isn’t worth paying for, I don’t know what is.
I just tried two of the instances listed with a search for “how to filter mineral spirits”, and they both gave me errors. Both Google and DDG gave me an answer. Is there some trick I’m missing here?
Quite right. I did get one with speakers, but they were even worse than I expected. I bought a sound bar to go with it. There are also a few quirks that remind me it’s a commercial display. Like there’s no power button on the unit. I have to use the remote. I suppose one wouldn’t want their signage turned off by randos.
I went on that journey a couple years ago. What I ended up buying is technically considered “digital signage” rather than a TV. Basically zero bloat. You may have to pay a little extra but I don’t recall it being that much. Pretty sure I got it here.
I think in the context of legislation, interpreting “let pass” to mean “allow to be signed into law” is understandable. But I see you just meant it chronologically.
