    The dude lit up a cigarette while he was waiting but it was ultimatley his snoring that got him caught!

    The criminal, who was waiting to break inside the house, lit up a cigarette and dozed off, reports South China Morning Post.
    The outlet further reported that after the homeowner, Tang, went to sleep with her child, she woke up due to loud snoring but ignored it thinking it was a neighbor. When 40 minutes had passed, she got up to clean her child's milk bottle and noticed that the snoring grew louder and realized it was coming from another room in her house.

    I make very easy shakes in my nutribullet which are just water, ice, oats, chia seed, protein powder with probiotics, peanut butter and some berries or a banana. I swap in some other things like hemp hearts for the chia sometimes.

    Tastes great and requires little effort.

    You wouldn't really use the same scale to weigh Fentanyl and weed. Fentanyl is dosed in micro grams. $10k of fentanyl requires a much more precise scale than $10k of weed. Typically such a precise scale cannot handle the weight of $10k of weed.

    You'd have to have a dealer who sells very large amounts of Fentanyl and very small amounts of weed.

    We spend 3.5% of our GDP on defense and that's actually far more than most countries. We have the 6th highest GPD to military spending ratio in the world. The countries who spend more of their GDP are relativity tiny. They amount to 11% of the total global spending on defense vs the USA's 39%.

    The second largest GDP is China- they spend 1.6% of their GDP on defense. Third is Japan @ 1.1%... You get the idea.

    Regarding the 2% NATO obligation- most members don't make it so it doesn't seem to be a real obligation.

    The Judge thinks he may have been intentionally withholding the records.

    “Perhaps he has made the calculation that his overall litigation risks are minimized by not complying with his discovery obligations in this case,” Judge Beryl Howell of the US District Court in Washington, DC, wrote Wednesday. “Whatever the reason, obligations are case specific and withholding required discovery in this case has consequences.”

    Jump
  • czech czech 1 year ago 100%

    The singer does seem to be trying to distance himself from the conservative implications:

    https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/25/entertainment/oliver-anthony-song-response/index.html

    “The one thing that has bothered me is seeing people wrap politics up into this,” Anthony said. “It’s aggravating seeing people on conservative news try to identify with me, like I’m one of them. It’s aggravating seeing certain musicians and politicians act like we’re buddies and act like we’re fighting the same struggle here, like that we’re trying to present the same message.”

    But the line about:

    Well, God, if you're five-foot-three and you're three-hundred pounds
    Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of Fudge Rounds

    seems a bit hateful unless that's supposed to be a metaphor for "fat cats". The CNN article thinks it's a metaphor:

    "though it has also courted controversy for its lyrics referring to politicians as “obese,” welfare recipients “milking” the system,"

    But the antisemitic connotations seem like a stretch to me. To assuming that criticism of capitalists is automatically antisemitic seems pretty antisemitic to me in it's own right.

    How do you foresee tankies poisoning the whole fediverse? Do you find their arguments compelling? It doesn't even seem like they are trying to make a case, they are just bluntly stating misinformation. If we are going to remove all misinformation then we are going to need paid admins because even at the current scale its a full time job. Or should we only remove certain misinformation? I see blatant misinformation everywhere on the fediverse already and only a tiny percentage is tankie related.
