Ending a shutdown is not as simple as signing onto every GOP agenda, while it at times has been a mistake, but at the very least the DNC defunded the DHS.
-
The DNC also tried to ban all non-individual spending and cap individual spending in 2003, it was overruled by the SCOTUS’ Citizen United decision in 2007-2010, and part of the core DNC platform is overturning that, which would ban AIPAC funding entirely for both parties.
The DNC and their platform are progressive.

It's completely possible for only the wealthy elite to prosper even if everyone else dives into extreme poverty. That's the way it worked for thousands of years.

So as it turns out the entire congressional record including every bill introduced, voted on, passed in either chamber, and signed into law is publicly available.
Although I could mention about 56 years ago they voted differently, so not "always".

David Hogg clearly didn't care enough about his ideals to participate in the redo election for his seat. To clarify, though, the other DNC chairmen didn't oust him on a technicality, the woman he won against did because she rightfully filed a complaint about the gender segregated pairing of the election which violated DNC rules.

Honestly, I think it's more foreign psyops than anything else. The Lemmy developers are devout Tankies who openly support the invasion of Ukraine, Chinese takeover of Taiwan and Hong Kong, etc. There is proven tankie bot activity and the majority of downvotes are from a handful of IP addresses.
The CCP both supports the Trump admin and at the same time violent insurgency in the USA, Europe, and other nations around the world, because they don't care how we destroy ourselves as long as it gets done.

Some of them are actively working with Trump towards a future where prison labor in their factories fuels their wealth in perpetuity. It is as simple as incarceration of millions of slave laborers and becoming a government contractor.
Footage of private prison executives celebrating the Trump reelection leaked when it happened. Some immigration camps are already creating labor.

There are no sitting billionaire DNC lawmakers. It is literal party platform, in writing, to tax the rich. Biden increased audits on the rich, made a minimum effective taxrate for the rich, and It was Kamala Harris' campaign promise to make an unrealized gains tax on amounts over a million dollars, which are assets used by billionaires as loan collateral to avoid taxes for their entire life.
If you were a billionaire, you would be 2.5x more likely to back the GOP than the DNC, and you would likely have a spot reserved in the front or on stage during a GOP inauguration.

Well, you kind of don’t, because war and fertilizer and all that other stuff.
But on the other other hand, IRGC is basically what MAGA wishes it could be.
But on the other other other hand, Israel’s having a blast invading people and I fuckin hate that.
Just a big pile of conflicting values, innit.

Unfortunately it's too late to create a small business during the fiscal year and report meals, "supplies", and standard mileage deduction (for traveling between work locations *wink wink*), and the cost of hiring a tax specialist (perhaps somebody very very close to them *wink wink*) which would have been a foolproof plan because the IRS won't audit anybody unless they: 1) can make more back than they spend on the audit and 2) have enough staff with which to perform the audit.

That implies that the Anarchists ever took control of the nation away from the Nationalist party which knelt down to the Nazis IMMEDIATELY. So not only was it a failed state, but a failed revolution which never controlled the state.

Use the Emergency Override as mentioned in the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II User Manual, should be one in the glovebox under the pistol, or in the F35B under the seat, then aim towards military controlled open test land, turn down the cow pie, hit the engine switch, and eject. If no NATO controlled land is nearby then aim for something really hard or try to coast by until you find some.
The plane is gone but its data will live forever.

It seemed like Iranians were willing to stop it themselves for but a brief moment, but the moment is over. Same with Russia and China. If they won't fight it internally, then we have to step in ourselves, for not only our own wellbeing but the people who come after us.

I very clearly mentioned the 1925-1979 social progress, but even during that time it was a centralized autocratic power under the singular rule of the Shah, and then it was simultaneously invaded by the UK and the USSR in 1941 before the 1953 coup turned the tides in the USA's favor until the 1979 revolution turned it back the other way towards the CCP's favor.
It's great to oppose authoritarianism, but it's that disgusting bootlicking you people do where you defend some authoritarianism while condemning others that really pisses me off.

Iran has been an autocracy since like 678 BC, although between 1925 and 1979 they had some social progress then immediately backpedalled. There’s no more corrupt than that. You’re probably thinking they might magically align more with the Blue Fascism than the Red Fascism of their Chinese sponsors if they had enough money, but I think that’s a foolish notion.

It's a very visual topic so using a visual medium to learn about it is ideal.
Again, I feel like it's disingenuous to compare using pixels to predict local pixels accurate to simply using a higher resolution, to generating an entirely different image every frame. One of them sounds no different than using certain filters or post process, the other sounds like slop ass AI.

I highly reccomend searching a video what DLSS is, how it is used, if you've never seen it before.
DLSS 4.5 and before was a "transformer model" that used the pixels from your screen to predict what the surrounding pixels would be, allowing you to view games in higher resolution than your settings. Some people have shown it running a game at 512 pixels and it appear nearly identical to 1920, but with improved framerate. It struggled with motion in a lot of cases but what you were seeing was what the game developers intended for you to see.
DLSS 5 is not doing that, clearly. It's pulling from something else for reference, some other kind of neural network or language model. The most common critique I hear about it is that it's "overriding the art" by replacing everything with slop the likes of which you see from other bullshit AI.

It's kind of sad that they took a good project that allows users to drastically reduce performance requirements on games, DLSS, and they crammed genAI all up its wazoo to the point that all versions before 5 are also being ridiculed.
