I agree on the second part, not the first. There's nothing morally wrong with making fan projects, fan art, fan fiction, whatever else. It's an expression of creativity and love for a franchise/game/story/whatever else. Don't blame the people making the stuff, it's harmless. Blame the corporations for over-extending their legal authority over an intellectual property for basically no reason.

Where do peppers come in the process? like a mix of green, red, orange, and yellow.

nobody is absolving Harris. She was the lesser evil, and many people chose not to choose, resulting in the greater evil anyways.

In Bernie's case it's "pay slightly more in taxes for free healthcare for everyone"

In Trump's case it's "pay much more in groceries because fuck you"

People tend to talk about things that affect them and are current. Unfortunately for most of us (or at least the people in my circle) we've lived our entire lives with expensive healthcare and housing. To us it's the norm. Egg prices being this high aren't.

Also bouncing off your previous example, yeah there are people that spend hundreds of dollars on groceries, but you forget that people only have so much income; they might be balancing their budget to just barely accommodate $400 worth of groceries. Eggs suddenly costing twice or thrice as much might push them over the edge. Or, you know, broke college students whose primary source of protein are eggs also feel it pretty heavy (source: me).

stuff getting stopped because of confusion is one thing

threatening to arrest someone because they asked why they aren't allowed to get a passport issued to them is another

Ah... I feel like in times past I would have read that hypothetical and laughed at how ridiculous it is.

no facts, what the fuck is with this graph.

Do you have any sources for this? Also the songs that mention it? I'd like to read more about this

Preferably into the EU. I speak some Spanish and I'm set to graduate with an Associates this semester. Hoping to get CompTIA certs sometime soonish and would like to continue schooling to get a bachelor's in Compsci. Most notable work experience is 2 years in an office setting making collection calls and processing payments. What resources are available to me? Who or what agency/department can I contact to get more information? What's the pipeline look like?

I know I could look most of this up, but there's a lot of information out there and some(a lot) of it I find somewhat confusing. Plus, I don't really even know where to start.

 

So I'm getting my associates this semester, technically under compsci. Can't really do much with an associates though, and I need a job in the mean time, so I've been studying CompTIA certs (A+, NET+, and soon I'll be taking a course for Sec+).

Except, I don't really know where to go from there. Like, sure I get my associates, then these certificates, and start my bachelor's, except I'm lost in the sauce about anything after that. If I'm honest, I don't even really know what I could do or what options are available to me with a CS degree. My relevant skills so far are basically none; I mean I grew up around computers and I've installed Linux mint on my daily laptop, but it's not like I know how to do much other than surface level or just above surface level stuff. I don't even really know how to code.

I guess, I'm just kinda lost. I don't really know what to do and I'd like some answers but don't even know where to start looking for them. Does anyone have any advice?

 

Like, why is it so widespread, what causes it, what solutions are available, etc. I don't really know how to ask this question so I hope I'm making sense
