I have never heard of someone committing suicide by shooting themselves in the back of the head. That is suspicious as fuck.

It is very telling that the big donors would rather try to split the democrat vote than rally behind a popular candidate.

IMO, Dems have to allow the new generations to finally have their say and invite fresh ideas, or fatally break the party.

If they keep letting the money work against their voters, they’re choosing the latter.

Just Cause 3

Movement was more annoying than Just Cause 2

Israelis target civilians, it’s not collateral.

The VA system has an absurd level of abuse and fraud. One can find a lot of former members that are “100% disabled” that are easily holding full time jobs without issues, and screwed up vets that couldn’t get a rating at all.

I have no clue how it could be fixed, and I want people to get the support they need, but the amount of abuse of the system is staggering.

I think part of it is the culture of some MOS to document every little thing, and combat MOS culture of never reporting anything medical

Who won the wars between the US and Afghanistan, Iraq, and Vietnam? Was it the people with the bomber airplanes? Is the US winning the war against the Houthis?

I assume you would mean that there would be like tiers of license for more normal pets, and then a stricter license for Pitbulls or Mastiffs or whatever. What sort of competence do you want people to demonstrate before getting a pet like a Cat or Golden Retriever?

I don’t think they would riot, they would probably just get pitbulls from breeders that didn’t check for licenses.

But I agree with the gist, there are a lot of bad dog parents, and people get pitbulls for bad reasons. I want there to be an avenue to punish owners & breeders who do not take proper precautions.

I have a pitbull (American pitbull terrier) that is a rescue. He loves people, but is so aggressive towards other animals that I can hardly believe it.

After having one for years now, I believe there should be some sort of training or licensing requirement before someone can own one. The combination of innate aggression and power is truly dangerous

I can never walk my dog off-leash, I can never hand my dog to someone inexperienced. I love my dog, but responsible ownership is much more burdensome than any other dog I’ve had.

I directly work with one of these people - they admit to spending all of their free time talking to the LLM chatbots.

On our work forums, I see it’s not uncommon at all. If it makes you feel any better, AI loving is highly correlated with people you shouldn’t ever listen to in the first place.

And will be stuck waiting at luggage pickup at the end

You are the asshole. You need to look at the image again. They are separated.

Anthropic keeps pulling this bullshit line of advertising. LLMs will make up stories when you ask them to.

Oh no, we can’t make slop without stealing? The horror!

“Q.R., using his mother’s old laptop, had unfettered access to the internet and began searching for hardcore pornography,” says the court. His mom claims this led to “pain, suffering, disability, disfigurement, and mental anguish; psychological injury; past and future love of enjoyment and pleasure of living.”

It’s not the internet making your son feel those things, it’s you.

A local bike shop is where I would recommend starting - they have to work on them in detail, so they tend to know what is junk and what holds up over time.

On Lemmy !bikecommuting@lemmy.ml and !bicycling@lemmy.world might be good resources.

I personally started riding a rad bike (Rad Rover 2018) and that bike is still going strong 7 years later on its original battery.

I know 1 person who got an e-scooter for transportation, and has had non-stop problems.

Fantastic news, may he rot in hell. Can we move the Colts back to where they belong now?

Can these people sue for malicious prosecution and civil rights violations?

My dude, you’re talking about scams and using the BBB as a source?

Like Yelp, you can pay the BBB for a good rating & to hide negative reviews.

“I want to fight American fascism, so let me go support Russian facism”

I wish this person took time to think their actions through. They could have done something positive with their life
