A nice mouse and keyboard. Especially for a gaming PC. There’s a few good mechanical keyboards you can get for under $100 too. HyperX isn’t bad, and has a nice price point on their mouse and keyboards imo. (Though they were bought by HP last year, so who knows about the future quality of the brand)
OR a nice headset if you don’t have one yet.
Not to be pedantic, but neither Automatic Transmission Fluid nor Data Encryption Algorithms have any kind of jurisdiction in any country on the planet. Op provided enough context clues to understand the country they’re talking about.
The only crime they committed is not including three words in a bracket to say “everywhere (in the US)” while still mentioning the jurisdiction of the three letter agencies in that country.
Is it US centralism thinking? Sure. But it’s not like OP left out all the necessary info to determine where and what they were talking about. Not to mention their entire post is a joke with a clear punchline. I don’t think anyone here is too stupid to understand the use of “jurisdiction” in OPs message, or the punchline it leads to, so why are you pretending to be that way to make a point? It simply weakens your point.
Imo there are much better places and comments to point out US exceptionalism BS than a throw away joke with enough context clues to understand it.
I think a better strategy is to run for office rather than vote. Because voting doesn’t do much if the available candidates are turncoats or shills. It should be educate, organize, and run. Otherwise we get more Scinemas running for raising minimum wage and not at all voting for it when it counts most.
I mean, these are all excellent policies. But I feel like they put the policy cart before the horse as they don’t address any of the major issues this country has been facing for decades.
Healthcare? Still worse from Trump. But sure people aren’t dying from rationing insulin they can’t afford.
Military Spending? Worth it to protect Ukraine, but why are we increasing an already inflated budget we can’t afford?
Minimum wage increasing for the first time in decades? How about student debt is forgiven for only the most vulnerable.
Public education? Higher education? Inflation? Job security? Voting rights? Abortion? Expanding the Supreme Court?
I’m not saying this administration hasn’t done good for this country. And I’m certainly not saying the alternative would be better.
What I’m saying is that this countries house is on fire and you want us to clap when all the Biden admin has done is turn on the garden hose.
Sure we’re “moving in the right direction” - but for the last 20 years the US keeps moving backwards much faster than it can move forward. Building this country back brick by brick doesn’t do much when it keeps getting bulldozed.
If the Biden admin wants people to vote for them in droves, pulling the corporate hand out of their ass to enact some immediate and much needed changes through executive orders would be a fucking slam dunk. We all watched as the previous administration used the “unitary executive” theory to pass a bunch of horseshit we all now have to deal with, but when it comes to actual progress this admin doesn’t want to take that path when it’s the only one that will lead to actual long term systemic change.
Oh 100%. It’s what I mean when I say we can’t build up brick by brick when the country keeps getting bulldozed.
Student Loan forgiveness is a great example! But I feel abortion magically becoming a state issue is the best example since the Supreme Court made that decision despite established “stare decisis” doctrine, AND the fact that the last time we had a big disagreement about “states rights” it lead to a fucking Civil War. (According to the GOP that war was about states rights after all.)
Funny enough, there’s been studies on Pedophilia that determined:
“pedophiles seek to gain a feeling of power and control” and also “pedophiles lack sexual interest in adults, and find children less intimidating.”
What do most greedy narccissists want? Power. Who are they intimidated by? Critical thinking adults. Something kids lack.
So the greedy - who are obsessed with power - who avoid critically thinking about their poor use of resources - will likely be drawn to pedophilia as a sexual outlet.
Elon Musk comes to mind. For many reasons.
Neo-fascist USA has literally threatened war with Canada and other neighboring countries, so if you think you won’t be on the front lines in a nonsense war started by fascists, then history has a very important lesson to teach you.
Chances are you and other Americans will be fighting in Ukraine alongside Russia by next year at the rate this clown show is excellerating.
There’s no American freedom in Neo-fascist USA, just whatever the broligarchy wants. The rights and freedom you, and every previous generation of Americans fought for are pretty much all gone now, so you are sorely mistaken if you assume you now have any.
I wonder what the Ukrainian people want.
Especially the ones misplaced to the US by a war Russia started, and now have to return to a war zone because the USA is now politically aligned with Russia, and willing to break international treaties, law, and ethics if it gets them Putins favor.
You’re an absolute idiot it you can’t comprehend the international seppuku the USA has just committed by failing to help displaced war refugees, and instead now helps their aggressors.
Anyone with a shred of humanity would see this as the evil bullshit it is.
Instead, you’re pointing out that a country at war needs to conscript troops. No shit. Check out how Russia is doing it, if you want a real comparison to call inhumane.
If you can’t make an argument without a political scape goat being attached to it, then it’s a bad argument.
Trumps son took 2 billion from the Saudis against the financial advice and suggestions of every expert they hired. It was, by all accounts, the largest in plain sight bribe ever witnessed.
Your argument is only a Dem problem if you cherry pick their name to attach to it.
