Callsigns for pilots, yes. This article is conflating callsigns with the plane’s identification/flight number.

He does know it. He uses it on purpose and then feigns ignorance.

It’s all fun and games until the IRS garnishes your wages for failure to pay taxes. It used to go after criminals, but those were too hard to nail down. Much more profitable to go after the average citizen instead.

If the news started telling us why, we would be able to form our own opinions on the information it provides. The ‘why’ has been a thing of the past for decades.

An honest response I’ve gotten when I ask why someone needs a big car.

What?

Also because so many Republicans are running on a platform of Pres. Biden being complicit in his son’s shady business dealings. As the evidence on that has gotten thinner and thinner, they are clinging to the gun charge to retain credibility with their voter base. They are trying to say “See?! He is a criminal just like we said, therefore we were right and the president is trying to protect him. That means he’s should be impeached, just like they impeached Trump!”

Authoritarians gonna authoritate.

That becuase that law was aimed at antifa and rioters, people DeSantis doesn’t like, not his voter base.

No no, it’s not “trolling,” they call it alternative debating!

A sad bunch, the lot of them.

People who don’t want to solve the problem, they just want their turn on top.

I’ve noticed that too. The compartmentalized nature of Reddit only exists becuase of the size of the communities. I’ve seen lot of people copying subreddits and also filling them with links to the top posts on that subreddit, meanwhile they are getting no comments or engagement. Lemmy should not act as a mirror hosting website for Reddit.

Next they will announce that they are suing Disney because he watched the History Channel, and that had violence on it which contributed to his actions.

My biggest complaint is how Linus is still saying he’s not sorry about what he did, at least it doesn’t seem genuine, instead he is still apologizing that he didn’t realize what the community wanted.

He shouldn’t care what the community wants. He should always strive for accurate data, ethical partnerships, and correcting mistakes when they still make it through because they always will.

Linus is doubling down on his opinions, hiding mistakes, doing the bare minimum to fix them, and needs public outcry and the heavy hand of the other executives in LTT to see any course change.

Worst part of it was a few of them were not jokes. They actually shilled their own products in their apology video.

Something tells me you’ve also had unpleasant encounters with hexbears

FTFY

You don’t buy them from your local supermarket that has a live feed of the tomato slaves out in the fields toiling away? My favorite part is the button they added that lets you auto-whip them on command.

Many people don’t realize that the first colonies were founded by Christians that believed the churches in their home county were not being authoritarian enough. The wanted religious freedom, sure, but they wanted the freedom to be theocratic like you said.

Trump didn’t transform shit

Picking and choosing what parts of the Bible they want to follow is nearly as old as the religion itself. The first council of Nicea was the first large attempt for Christianity to define itself and create a canon. That happened in 325 AD. Even if we talk only about protestants, denominations are all about what parts of the bible they follow and how they translate the word to doctrine.

To attribute it to one man is so disingenuous. Christians have been interpreting the Bible in whatever way suits them best for over a millenia.

I was a libertarian until I vacationed in a country where taxes were used on its people instead of it military.

(Gross over simplification for comedy before anyone comes at me for my political beliefs)
