It seems fairly obvious that what happens is a tariff is applied to the items entering the US and not the oil going to Cuba.

If you trade oil with cuba, then any trade with the US will be subject to the tariff.

Your opinion is taken with all the respect due to it.

You’re proving the point. None of this is rational discourse. “you’re a criminal”, “ you’re a slave”, “you’re a crab”.

We get it, you don’t like paying taxes.

The only purpose of your meager existence is to make your owners more wealthy and powerful.

Are these the wealthy and powerful pot smokers you’re talking about?

No, it's about your viewpoint on taxation and how it's a pointless task to try and reason with a person that takes that stance. "Respecting the lives of others" doesn't preclude taxation to any rational person.

You're right, I completely forgot about what you put in that first comment because it seemed like extremely wishful thinking, bordering on gaslighting. Then, given all the comments since then that have been explicitly about taxation, I assumed that you had reassessed and had something new to contribute given how thoroughly those new comments debunked those original statements. Oh well.

I’m looking for you to back up your perspective with context in this thread that gave you that perspective.

I’m not sure why you believe I don’t

I guess I'm confused why I ought to care what Christ or Spooner think about taxation?

I still cannot see how you get that impression.

Not sure how you reconcile this take with "People don't like being robbed, PERIOD, especially not to pay for a bunch of weed smokers to sit at home relaxing on their dime. There will be blood."

This person doesn't like taxation. Tough.

This is such a bad faith argument. Society has largely agreed that welfare is a valuable thing to do, from disability to social security. Calling taxation theft just says that you aren't able to be rational about this.

The contention is with "good". Is it good to have a bunch of people becoming emotionally stunted in case a handful dig further? Presumably there were people moved to stoicism prior to the current influencer trend, is that not good enough?

Hmm. That’s not “the fast ones”, that’s specifically and purposefully built for the purpose of hitting a high speed. Can’t seem to find 0-218 time to see how it would compare with a geared ICE motorcycle. I’m not convinced it’s getting to the top fast enough for gear shifting to matter.

Please, for the love of god, do not pull LLMs into the mix. I just want the keyboard to display what I'm typing.

I've never noticed the "censorship issue"

Really? If you swipe "kill" and then try "yourself" or "myself" does it ever get it right or provide it as one of the options? Doing it right now myself and I can't get it to do either. I have manually entered those words and hit the "myself" in the suggestion box to try and convince it that that's an acceptable correction to no avail.

I inevitably do the "wrong thing" and fall victim to the editing again, or tap something wrong, or.. I don't know

Every. Time. I like to think that I'm not an idiot and can generally pattern recognize, but it just feels so inconsistent that I'm always doing the wrong thing.

Switched from pixels to iphone in the last year or two and the keyboard is the biggest pain point by far. I tend to use swipe, so this particular issue isn't something I've come across. What I do run into is weird censorship issues where I'm trying to type "kill myself" or something similar and the phone will do anything to not provide that as an option. Then, when I try to manually change it, editing is a nightmare. Inevitably trying to change the ending of a word results in the entire word being deleted. It inserts spaces where I don't want them.

Is this some sort of psyop to get me to use siri to send texts?

But how many EV bikes can even hit 90?

Sure, but when you can get to 90mph in first gear, does that matter?

Are they faster? I guess at some point it comes down to gearing, but a liter bike is hitting 300km/h and has more than enough torque to loop you from standing still. I'm not sure what an electric motor adds here for hobbyists or speed demons.

This is absurd to the point of being cartoonish. No one treats billionaires like supervillains. How many billionaires are in supermax prisons right now in New York?

"Supervillains" are comic book entities who are rarely in prison

At big tech over 40% of checked in code is LLM generated. At smaller companies the proportion is larger.

I have a really hard time believing that stat without any context, is there a source for this?

I mostly agree here, but the other side is now maintainers will be aware that not merging a PR could financially impact someone. I don't know that that's a great system, either.

Probably that one of the original comments on this thread suggested using another free and open source thing instead of using this free and open source thing? Why is linux exempt from "it comes with free malware" and not this other widely trusted and used tool?

Sure, lots of people are in the market. However, a very small portion of people own the overwhelming majority of the market.

Top 10% owned 93% of shares in 2023.

Correct by what metric? Why do I care if I send the message that I'm leeching?

They're in the Phoenix area as well.

No, be loud about bad laws.

It could be great, but am I going to use it on my elementary aged child’s devices.

This is nonsensical. Fundamentally this is a file made to be uploaded to gmail or fastmail named `<provider>Filters.xml`. In what universe would you "use" this on your elementary aged child's devices?

I see this as an extension of tshirt and jeans to work at an office job. The unforeseen consequence being the elimination of decorum everywhere. It’s not really about vulgarity, but a general lack of respect for others, standards for ourselves, and dissolving social culture.

I think we'll be okay with dispensing of the "social culture" that is slacks and a polo.

Helping some small portion of the people who suffer from epilepsy is a far cry from "Best diet for mental health is keto diet".

That's not what that experiment is showing. If you move the trigger by 1mm and jostle the slide, nothing will happen. You have to take the trigger _to the wall_, and then 0.5mm further, and then wiggle the slide.
