You’ll find that representative democracy is not all that representative.

28% is a large portion for “only”. Also, what happened to the other 27%?

and I want him to stop calling slop “AI”.

Which of the only two parties that are allowed to win don’t run up the deficit?

Reunite? I thought there was already only one China?

I would not describe the state of the UK as a “soft landing”.

The part where you misspelled it as Canuk.

Not melt like ice?

Canadians were ready to vote in the conservatives until trump pissed them off. Instead Canadians voted in a party headed by a banker who’ll also financially raid the country but with decorum.

but then you could invest it and it’ll become a gift that keeps on giving.

I’m a professional developer, and currently by volume I’m confident latest models, Claude 4.5 Opus, GPT 5.2, Gemini 3 Pro, are able to write better, cleaner code than me.

I have also used the latest models and found that I’ve had to make extensive changes to clean up the mess it produces, even when it functions correctly it’s often inefficient, poorly laid out, and is inconsistent and sloppy in style. Am I just bad at prompting it or is your code just that terrible?

We got a taste of that in the 90s with shows like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura coming over (albeit altered) and being quite popular.

Apps then need to constantly reflow their layouts, resize content, adjust snapping behavior, and handle edge cases across different screen sizes, DPI settings, and multi-monitor setups. Also, this reflow logic has to work perfectly for legacy Win32 apps, modern UWP apps, and everything in between.

You mean the apps that were already handling this for decades when windows wasn’t a vibe-coded and ad-infested vehicle for AI slop?

bin laden warned us!!! !!! !!! !!!

There are ways, but they’re even less effective and impractical than they were when companies weren’t all merged together and government wasn’t flooded with lobbyist dollars. Now industries are dominated by 2-3 major players who collude on prices through “algorithms” and the government is openly for sale to the top bidder. Money completely rules all, guess who has more money. That’s the only thing that talks “peacefully” now.

As I already stated, peaceful solutions are easier to ignore or quash. You cannot negotiate with someone who can already get their way because they have nothing to gain. Negotiating to them means giving things up. If they refuse to negotiate, how are you going to bring them to the bargaining table?

I don’t know how you can think I’m giving a free pass to republicans when right in the part you quoted I’m saying they’re worse than democrats. I skimmed the rest of your moralizing lecture and you’ve made a hilarious strawman that doesn’t represent me at all, but I hope you enjoyed your masturbation session, “champ”.

Okay, what is happening to him is a humanitarian crisis, but they arrested him for driving without a license, not because he missed a turn signal.

Technically true, but the turn signal was an excuse to pull him over, it’s not like they knew he didn’t have a license. At the same time, is he able to get a license without legal status? He has lived in the country for 50 years, but these technicalities are what give the excuse to deport him.

It can be argued “the law is the law” but what kind of society are we trying to achieve by enforcing these technicalities (while also permitting the corruption and outright illegal acts of the president)? It’s a case that highlights the broken (intentional or otherwise) system of legal status within this country and how it’s used to exercise control over people’s lives.

Can you imagine being pulled over every time you fail to signal? A lot of times people don’t signal when they’re in a turn-only lane because it’s obvious they’re going to turn, but technically that can be used as an excuse to pull them over.
