This regime won’t go away just because they loose an election. Trump might, but not the people who put him in power.
The constant threat that the checks and balances will fail again, will forever be present. Only if the USA has a massive political overhaul may the worries subside. Hence, any trust in the USA as a reliable partner is broken, until something big changes. Democrats winning the next 20 years of elections will still not fix what has been broken in the last few years.
Welcome to a great method on getting soldiers to throw their lives away for someone elses glory. Has been shown to be extremely effective throughout the ages.
Boston looks much easier to navigate though. Much clearer road hierarchy, meaning better flowing traffic, and less traffic near houses and shops.

Things might be ok, but you won’t live long and prosper.
This joke can’t possibly be American. Diesel in the USA is a bit more than 5 dollars per gallon currently (according to a quick search). The cheapest diesel I can get in my town is around 2.23 euro per liter currently. That translates to about 11.50 dollars per gallon. 5 dollars per gallon is a steal! The robbery is the other way around!
Why take pill, when you can install schnapps?
If you do that in Latin, you get names like September, October, and December. Just make sure not to randomly insert two extra months, making sevenuary by the 9th month.
Helldivers. A game which applies over the top levels of sarcastic propaganda for the managed democracy of Super Earth. In the game, you play as a footsoldier (helldiver) for Super Earth. Hence, the whole culture around the game is soaked with sarcastic propaganda.
To complete this 2 sentence horror story:
Such code bases are what the Vibe coding AI is trained on.
The large wheel next to the cabin is also messed up. It means the cabin must be smaller than the track width, since the cabin is squized inbetween the wheels. But in reality the cabin is always wider then the wheel base.
I agree that the lines look sharp, but the composition makes no sense. The giant wheel next to the cabin is just weird. Why is the wheel bigger? And why is the cabin not wider than the track width? This looks like a tractor, not a locomotive. The steam is comming from the coal storage, but not from the engine. And why does the coal storage have a chimney anyway? Then there are the weirdly shaped coupling rods. These mistakes make no sense in the context of a steam locomotive, but they look plausable. I’m no AI expert, but it certainly is a weird looking steam locomotive.

I’m starting to think this was designed wrong intentionally. What better way to farm engagement then to wrongly draw a train in a meme about autism, on Lemmy?
Wacht ff. Er zijn kampioenschappen voor het beSTUREN van een apparaat op rails?
The Netherlands? I keep that region well groomed, what about it?
I have noticed a back and forth in engineering companies between prioritizing project teams, who focus on a single customer each, and product teams who focus on generic development, overarching the individual projects.
Upper management will see that a lot of products are sold (each sale is a project), and the company now actually has to deliver projects. So product teams are ripped up, and everyone is dedicated to specific projects, because making these deadlines is the most essential thing in the known universe.
A couple of years later, they hire expensive consultants to tell them how to optimize their business. These consultants will note (after simply asking the engineers) that there is a lot of development being done many times over, once for each project. So the entire organisation is optimized by ripping up the project teams, and placing the engineers in product teams.
The result is a new standardized product, of which the company can sell a lot, which eventually brings us back to step 1.
A good company will realise that going 200% into 1 direction will make it way harder to steer back once the inevitable pull into the other direction arrives. So a more temperate approach, tends to win in the long term. But explaing that to a manager is usually a waste of your time.
Best do that with something that hides the taste well. Maybe create a drink so aggressive that it might as well be a cleaning product. Just add some caramel to paint the whole thing black and you’re good to go. People will love you coca product.
NOoo, not both!!! If we do that immediately, the episode will be over before Jeffrey Combs has even shown up.
I agree that they should use something sturdier. But do note that bricks won’t survive entirely either. Brick walls can withstand the wind itself, but won’t do well against large chunks of debree flying into them at significant speeds.
What is apart from it being rich white right-wing men? What is he saying here? Do they mean “a part”, which completely changes the meaning of the sentence?
There aren’t enough pixels in these images to give each bit or bob it’s own pixel.
Kinda. But once you pay them, you also start to expect things from them. You inadvertenty put pressure on them. This will drive some of the volunteers away.
