It makes me wonder if this will bring more people back to consoles. The library may be more limiting, but when a console costs less than just a gpu, itll be more tempting.

He was detained!! They handcuffed him!

What is this forcibly removed nonsense. They handcuffed a senator who wanted to know what DHS is doing in HIS state!

There are also too many contractors in non-defense agencies. It’s really terrible because it both increases costs, slows things down (in my opinion), and means that there is little retention of skilled workers.

Oddly, the main way to save money and increase efficency is to expand the government workforce. Although, I do think there needs to be more effort on how we focus government work.

I think that’s context relevant though. If we think about when dates are most frequently used (news, business, planning) it’s typically within the year (or month will give context).

That added with the fact it’s not uncommon in some situations to just provide month/day.

That being said, I don’t think either is better or worse. Just a preference kinda thing, unlike the issue between metric and imperial units.

Probably all of them as it was split 4-4.

This also happened to some extent with Reagan. While it wouldn’t be another 5 years after his presidency when he was officially diagnosed with Alzheimers, it was speculated there were issues during his presidency.

To be honest I assumed most Whitehouse staff are political appointees. If that’s the case he’s looking to fire all the incompetent people he brought on himself. But some may be apolitical.

It it’s like the other recent votes, it’s actually republicans turning out to vote for democrats. I think both Florida and Michigan(?) had less democrats and more republicans turning out, meaning that republicans are turning on the party.

Yeah, threatening to veto just means it would eventually need more votes (but I doubt he’d veto it).

In more simple terms, Trump can’t prevent congress from passing laws about tariffs.

All he can do is make it more difficult, by requiring a higher percentage of the legislature vote on it.

If that were the case he wouldn’t be in power anymore. Either enough people don’t understand or don’t believe it.

The issue the OC is talking about isn’t something you can just walk back and take your winnings. Owning the husk of a once great economy isn’t really a great outcome.

I don’t think anyone understands that if he ousts Powell/gets his interest rate lowered, we’re looking at a depression or worse. That kind of economic crisis has the potential to ruin literally anyone, including the wealthy/elites.

This is what they always do, get you arguing about something that doesn’t matter. Just eats up time and energy about nothing.

Pretty sure you’re talking about foundation and concealer?

What vote are you referencing? Rubio’s appointment?

So it’ll just take 11 years to even out.

Edit: Just double checked, it’s 1 trillion in the “next year or so”. So x >= 11 years :(

Another thing is, I believe, that it wasn’t dems showing up to vote, the shift in margin was Republicans voting for democrats. If that’s really the case that’s huge, cause it doesn’t mean Republicans are disengaged, they’re starting to work against the current admin.

The way they’re gutting these agencies they aren’t able to fufill their congressional appointed duties, so they’re already breaking the law, but the courts are slow and seem non-plussed and congress has been coopted.

Some are doing republican only town halls ಠ_ಠ

Yeah that’s why I called out it costs money.

Its also kinda similar to taxes, the US pretty much already knows all this info already, yet somehow we can’t manage to make elections easy and free.
