I like to picture Jesus in a Tuxedo T-shirt, 'cause it says, ‘I wanna be formal, but I’m here to party, too.’

You know, Jesus did grow up. You don’t always have to call him baby. It’s a bit odd and off putting to pray to a baby.

I think if they introduce a rotating calendar Imola would be an ideal track to have in the rotation. The racing usually isn’t great, but it’s not the worst, and it would still keep an iconic circuit in F1. Seems like a good compromise.

It’s not scary at all from behind a keyboard.

Linus Tech Tips (LTT) release investigation results on former accusations (x.com)

There were a series of accusations about our company last August from a former employee. Immediately following these accusations, LMG hired Roper Greyell - a large Vancouver-based law firm specializing in labor and employment law, to conduct a third-party investigation. Their website describes them as “one of the largest...

That’s pretty much my thinking too. I mean, what’s the less biased alternative to get to the truth here? The law firm has an incentive to satisfy the people paying them, but they also have their own reputation to maintain.

So I guess I’d be inclined to skeptically believe their findings. Although, it would be better if the firm released their own summary (or endorsed this one).

Due to cost or reliability improvements? Or both? Because cars are definitely operational a lot longer than they were 25-50 years ago.

What are you talking about? American made cars (majority of historical volume) were notoriously bad until recently. Hondas and Toyotas were the exception. Now the expectation is that every make/model makes it to 200k miles.

And rust was an issue because they used inferior paint on older vintages. I don’t see how blaming it on material deficiencies supports your point.

That’s the case now, but not historically. The big 3 were making garbage cars until foreign companies expanded their US presence with domestic manufacturing. Widespread foreign makes built in the US is relatively recent.

US prisoners are being assigned dangerous jobs. But what happens if they are hurt or killed? (apnews.com)

Blas Sanchez was nearing the end of a 20-year stretch in an Arizona prison when he was leased out to work at Hickman’s Family Farms, which sells eggs that end up in the supply chains of huge companies like McDonald’s, Target and Albertsons. While assigned to a machine that churns chicken droppings into compost, his right leg...

Do you have any more information about illegal slavery until the 1980s? I’m not doubting it, I’ve just never heard that and would like to learn more.

The headline specifically states those two amendments are omitted because it is the most likely to cause outrage, not because it is the most accurate description of the situation. It’s not incorrect. It’s misleading.

My county courthouse has a mural of the original constitution and the bill of rights: are they making a political statement by omitting all the other amendments?

This headline is technically correct, but it’s clearly meant to cause outrage. The headline “Trump’s Bible only includes the bill of rights” isn’t going to get as much attention.

Manufacturing outrage obfuscates Trump’s actions that people should actually be outraged about.

Any plant can grow with “artificial” light. It’s just a matter of generating the correct light spectrum for a plant. There’s nothing special about the light coming from the sun.

If Hamas isn’t a terrorist organization then what would you call them?

bhmnscmm,
@bhmnscmm@lemmy.world avatar

My definition of terrorist tactics is irrelevant to how the OP would classify Hamas.

Regardless, here’s how terrorism is defined on Wikipedia: it seems pretty reasonable to me.

Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims. The term is used in this regard primarily to refer to intentional violence during peacetime or in the context of war against non-combatants

The fact that you’re trying move this conversation towards the actions of Israel while avoiding the actions of Hamas leads me to believe you’re not interested in having a genuine discussion. I think you’re trying to play gotcha.

Have Israel and Hamas used terrorist tactics? I think so. Do both sides not care about the well-being of civilians? I think so. Are both sides of this conflict bad? I think so.

bhmnscmm,
@bhmnscmm@lemmy.world avatar

I agree with everything you’ve said. Hamas can be a terrorist organization, and still be the elected government. Both can be true, and acknowledging the how and why of that being the case is necessary reach a resolution to the conflict.

Not sure if this is exactly what you’re looking for, but the opening scene to The Conversation uses a high-zoom shot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlwdpNw1FW8

Eye in the Sky also prominently features long-distance/high magnification shots from the perspective of a drone/UAV.
