Minority opinion, but I like those style caps. I like that I dont have to hold the cap. It’s much easier on the go.

If it’s removable you can much more easily recycle it though. Sustainably that is much much better than average phones.

However, while more sustainable than current it is not the most sustainable if you charge it like that

There’s the law and there’s what’s right. They don’t always overlap

In terms of the global economy I doubt any of us could raise enough capital to impact corporate strategy

So the US, Israel, and Germany have been directly involved in this conflict thus far.

Russia is currently in a war with Ukraine as we know, and has announced their support of Iran. North Korea has been sending troops to this conflict. US and much of western Europe is already involved in some way.

China has been reported sending some kind of undisclosed aid to Iran already.

Currently unrelated but Pakistan and India just had a border skirmish. Pakistan does border Iran.

There’s a lot of instability and World Wars worth of countries involved already. It truly wouldn’t take much to start connecting some of these conflicts. If that happens it gets much bigger

America

Too late we’re already there

Honestly as an American, when I visited Germany I bought a deutschland ticket and used regional transit to travel most of the country. I used the DB navigator app.

It was hands down the best travel of my life. Just hop on a train and go anywhere. The delays were usually well recorded in the app and I could usually just reroute.

I was traveling for leisure though so waiting an extra 10 minutes was not a big deal, but all the city transit and local trains seemed to be mostly on time. Regional were the only ones I encountered with delays.

I’m hoping this is the death of the republican party and the dems split and create a new progressive party. Placing the current dems as the new “right”.

Not ideal and still lacks a lot of necessary reform, but I’m hoping this is plausible

If we make it out the other end the bastard should hang for treason

This is what I saw. She also married into the family and inherited her deceased husbands wealth.

Still obscenely rich, but she has nothing to do with the company

You can’t take away their hobbies that’s unfair. Just think of those poor officers

The article implied this is within historic norms for civil rights protests in the US

Per the article:

47% of U.S. adults disapprove of of deploying the Marines to LA, with 34% approval.

45% disapprove the National Guard deployment, while 38% said they approve.

That leaves 19% and 17% that are undecided. The question for those would be are they uninterested or uninformed?

Then as I said we’re already cooked. But also that is demonstrably false anyway. Our judiciary is under heavy threat, but still functioning

I doubt they will find anything of use. The most powerful thing I can do is slow them down. It’s the best use of my privilege

I bring my phone. I likely won’t be breaking any laws, and I can afford a lawyer. So yeah arrest me and waste the system’s time. Just another data point they have to sort.

And if it gets to the point where none of that matters we were cooked anyway

They do not decide who is allowed to run for office though and independents can and do win races.

And frankly the last thing I want to do is change the system to create more private organizations like political parties.

I hear where you are coming from, but the law descends from the will of the people or at least it should.

Allowing a body independent from government oversight decide who is allowed to be a lawyer and therefore a judge is a terrible idea though. Currently each state has an independent BAR association that decides who can and cannot practice law within the state. Handing over full judiciary control to a private organization like that is a terrible idea.

That’s creating a body of government not controlled by the people at all. I don’t like that.

If there was a recall process then maybe
