What does your therapist have to say about this?

When they are out of sinking ships to scurry to.

Sounds like a plan.

Notice the “cook” in username. Unpaid labor is a common practice in the restaurant industry. They call it a “stag”. It’s supposed to be an unpaid working interview, but restaurants will schedule stages with people even when they aren’t hiring.

Great analogy. China and the US are the Kaiju, and the rest of the world are the people living in the cities we fight in.

Bluesky claims to support federation while being designed to make it entirely impractical and is currently entirely centralized.

Let’s see if that’s even close to true in 4 years. All of Trump’s lauded American manufacturing wins during his first administration were just smoke and mirrors and none of them actually became reality.

I just thought it was fair game to make a stupidly sweeping assumption. I don’t actually think all non-americans are pretentious. But the loud ones here on Lemmy sure love to make broad sweeping statements about entire countries.

Why are non-americans so fucking pretentious on the Internet?

Alleged pedophile Mark Zuckerberg?

Now that Iiiii want to steal intellectual property, it should be legal. I guess we should have expected tech Bros to all be republicans when it was to their advantage.

E Pluribus Anus

He fancies himself an Octavius, but he’s more of a Nero.

If you’re only looking to access the services locally, absolutely.

Yup, we’re talking about billions of dollars in investment in one factory. Nobody is going to do that when the whim of some idiot can turn that into a complete waste.

Edit: case in point, whims of an idiot

Less than 7% of building materials are imported into the US and a large portion of that is likely Canadian lumber that won’t be a factor in building factories. Our biggest issue is a lack of educated and trained workforce. There are specific types of engineers that work in manufacturing and we just don’t have thousands of them sitting around waiting for work. We don’t have enough to begin with. And we certainly aren’t going to get many moving here with the way ICE is treating people.

All of North America actually.

They’re normal people. This is a common reaction. Most people don’t give two shits about half the stuff we care about here on Lemmy. Nobody here is an average web user.
