LEAVE HIM ALONE DHARAMVEER

What site is this?

It was the late 1800’s. Dumb shit wasn’t in short supply in the world.

Problem is, I could also see Trump’s WWE education secretary pushing for this in 2026.

They didn’t even round to the closet decimal. 3.1 is closer to pi than 3.2.

Agreed. I’m just saying that I’ve seen behavior burby places change, even when the demographics, parks, and schools reminded similar.

Are you saying that suburban families with kids no longer live next to schools, parks, friends?

Weird thing is that many American kids no longer do this in the suburbs, and it used to be very very common 30+ years ago.

I imagine that is a combo of helicopter parenting + American roads becoming less safe.

You’re looking at one incident, on one block, in the one city in America that is radically different than all of the others.

And that said, NYCs response times are around 10min, which is target that Germany also tries to hit. https://www.nyc.gov/assets/operations/downloads/pdf/mmr2025/2025_mmr.pdf

Gaddafi and Chavez? Both of those governments had a shitload of military people staffing leadership roles that should’ve been civilian gigs. No thanks.

Disobeying authoritarian orders is one thing. Using that as a tool to centralize power and staff civi roles with military brass for decades? Hard pass.

Dumb ass Trump. Fool’s get’n straight up hormuzed.

lol. How old is that kid in the thumbnail?

As a product designer, I’ve clocked in countless hours with many many design tools over the year. For raster, vector, page layout, solid modeling, ux, animation, you name it.

I desperately want GIMP to be my, and my design team’s, raster tool of choice. That said, the UX is still abysmal, it uses some bizarre UI patterns, and the UX hasn’t really evolved over the past two decades. There has been some projects to redo the UX, but they all seem to eventually die on the vine.

I would LOVE an OOS raster tool with GIMP’s feature set, and a decent interface.

My tool of choice is Photopea at the moment. The ads are horrible, but it has a broad feature set, is free, and appears to be coded by a single workhorse dev who has basically cloned photoshop as a web app.

Is Kramer holding a bologna bag in that picture?

It’s almost like there was some sort of reason why no one else was stupid enough to do this.

All of these marketplaces are like that now. Amazon, Target, Walmart, Wayfair, etc.

Exactly. It’s the ship, the goods, the lost earning over many years, severance for staff that won’t be used, etc. It would be mess.

I also wonder how clean up for a spill would be handled. Currently that’s managed by Iran and the vessel that spilled pays.

True. Almost all new vehicles are EVs, but 70% of the existing vehicles on the road are ICE. Super impressive, but that tank of fuel is extra painful if you’re in the countryside.

Which is why I said insurance in escrow.

Trump is famous for stiffing people. I’d want that money paid upfront and held in escrow by an independent financial firm in a neutral nation.

If a ship gets hit, escrow pays out for the oil, the ship, and the loss of future earnings. If the ships never sink, the money goes back to the US.

Yeah, losses would wouldn’t just be the cargo and the ship, it would be a decade long hit to earnings. And I’d want to see money for all of that, in escrow, before I moved an inch. Trump is famous for not paying his debts. I’d want all that money secured upfront.

Of course. The US government would have to insure it. No private company is touching that with a 10 foot pole.
