News@lemmy.world•The U.S. Military Has a ‘Hemorrhaging’ Retention Crisis
2·7 hours agoMaybe but that is also a relatively recent development, as recently as 40 years ago there was a near peer that could be a potential threat. While that turned out to be a generous over estimation one does not under estimate their goes, also the US does have quite a few allies that do or could need assistance against far larger threats, though how long that’ll last is anyone’s guess.
Fact of the matter is the circumstances for which the argument could be made that the US military should be dissolved is relatively new, while the argument about war policy is as old as the US itself. Though personally I don’t think either will matter much longer, the reactionaries and corporations are doing a stand-up job ensuring every empire killing problem is hit simultaneously.

News@lemmy.world•The U.S. Military Has a ‘Hemorrhaging’ Retention Crisis
3·8 hours agoTheoretical defense, war is an institution and if not maintained you may be caught wrong footed when it comes a knocking. How many empires, kingdoms, or city states have been utterly annihilated because they forgot how to truly conduct warfare.

News@lemmy.world•Shredded cheese sold in dozens of states recalled due to potential for metal fragment contamination
3·23 hours agoSo I’m guessing some of the processing equipment broke or was breaking resulting in contamination. Because the web page does not like my phone.
Sure but one has to admit lashing these profligates to a cross or sacrificing them in a Blòt would be rather satisfying.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump officials threaten to withhold SNAP funds from Democratic-led states
12·2 days agoCool, if they do this every federal agent needs to be black bagged until the benefits are restored and tax revenue cut off. If they aren’t restored just start shipping pieces of the agents to their kin.

politics @lemmy.world•Young Democrats challenge aging incumbents in California's safe blue seats
5·2 days agoAlso just gonna piggy back by pointing out that even just socialism predates the ideological branch that China and the Norks derive from. Just off the top of my head you have communalism (Anabaptist and the Shakers being decent examples), utopianism, leftist libertarians, and whatever the fuck the early rednecks were doing (the Scottish strikers not their Appalachian descendants).

politics @lemmy.world•Americans say Trump has done more to raise prices than lower them by 2-to-1: New poll
1·3 days agoBasically very rarely you will get a situation wherein putting a tariff on specific foodstuffs will lower the price, but you also need to incentives to lower export as well. Like I said I don’t even know if it’s technically possible anymore since the last time I know of it working was back in the 1800s in South America.
Which is also why the term AI is fucking worthless and should get marketers fucking hanged. Seriously if they had to actually explain what it fucking did this would not be nearly as much of an annoying problem as it is.
Does your fan not have its front shield or is it just a bad angle? If it doesn’t I’d suggest you put it on, from experience those fuckers can break skin.

2·4 days agoThey could mix if done in very specific ways, but there’s no way in hell Trump could do that. I’m not even sure anyone could do that anymore.

Games@lemmy.world•Palworld dev isn’t impressed by "so-called" AAA, prefers indies since they "include the kind of systems you can’t find in other games"English
6·4 days agoThere’s also the factor of the death or at least severe weakening of regional cultures, think your old Californian desert, Appalachian, or Old Boston cultures. A lot of these were weakened or even wiped out by the Great depression, Dust Bowl, and post war migrations, meaning that even the stronger of these more regional cultures can barely flex even in their own areas.
While it’s obviously misguided there is a reason rural folks are so conservative, the source isn’t necessarily political it’s because they recognize that their culture is weakening to the mainstream Pan American culture but assume it’s political since they don’t really have the language to figure out otherwise.

Technology@lemmy.world•Leak confirms OpenAI is preparing ads on ChatGPT for public roll outEnglish
3·4 days agoThe problem with AI is largely the data center shit. Nobody has a problem with Josh pissing around with a learning algorithm to detect when to run his air conditioner optimally, what people are pissed about is building fuck off worthless data centers for bullshit thats almost certainly not worth the corpo hype.
Obviously they aren’t completely worthless, there is worth in them being liquidated and sold off.

4·4 days agoWe may not remove it completely but we could definitely limit or even wipe out AI data centers even on just a municipal level. Limits on resources used and strict permit requirements would be enough to shit can them in a variety of ways.


Does Gabe Newell count? If not then no.
