Red - bloody Mary

Green - absinthe

Blue - blue bols

They all restore drunkeness

Yeah buddy last week was too soon. /s

So move to Florida then. Why is that worthy of reporting?

Idiots!! That stuff ain’t worth shit!

I always thought the pledge of allegiance stood out as a bit of a strange brainwashing exercise for the free and fair democracy the United States seeks to be. In fact IMO the nationalism it represents and instils in Americans opened the door to MAGA.

This is how you tell your customers they should not buy any products from you in the future.

It goes beyond their IoT devices to everything they make. You cannot trust Belkin to provide you with meaningful support for any device if they get bored and they may kill your device, particularly if it is cloud connected, even before it is out is warranty. Anything which needs critical updates for security reasons is affected.

So even though I never had any of these products, I will not be buying Belkin ever again because the risk is too high.

Buy from someone else.

Not by rotw standards no. But it’s all relative. In the USA Democrats stand to the left of the repuglicans.

If they truly feel that they got something different than they voted for, they should remember that they were told a lot of this would happen by one side and told it wouldn’t by the other.

The next time they vote they should remember that and consider more than simply “left bad, right good”. But we all know they won’t. They will just say “the last guys were bad Republicans, this new group are good republicans” and vote the same way again.

I’ve long thought that conservatives are the party of “me”. They appeal to selfish desires which is why they are successful. It’s like playing the lottery. I didn’t win this time but I might next time so I’ll keep playing.

Yes I did. Your point is simply “but… more money!!!” Ignoring that bigger numbers are not the whole story.

I’m sure we can trust the police to be responsible with this power… https://www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/news/2025/04/former-police-officer-sentenced-after-admitting-stalking-charge/

It has only been 6 months. The effects of this administration will not appear in tables of budgets and salaries yet. Although in simple terms it will probably still look ok, it is far less attractive.

Cost of living matters too. From simple things like how much broadband costs (uk: £30 pcm, usa: $78 pcm) to an ambulance ride (uk: free, usa:$2000). The higher salary is an illusion.

I also note that every company in your list is a tech company. Researchers in other fields are probably not going to be as lucky.

Buying in instrumentation is also now more expensive due to tariffs so your research budget was effectively cut as well as being actually cut. Scientists with approved grants for equipment have had them revoked. Universities are advising not spending funds to provide contingency funds.

Is it not simply a matter of contract anyway? The states agree to pay the federal government in exchange for the security and cooperation that the federation brings. If the federal government is no longer holding up it’s end of that agreement no matter the reason, why should the States be obligated to remain in that agreement?

Disagree, every ruling the scotus makes that overturns a lesser court judge makes their opposition to established law clearer. If cases went straight to scotus, it would appear that legal opinion was unanimous and not that scotus have a politically motivated agenda.

If I recall correctly, spinach has a lot of iron in it and it’s green. Added bonus, it makes you able to take on a bully!
