This hot take brought to you by someone who clearly hasn't lived or worked in QC over the last decade.

You want a high number of quality employees? Stop reducing the standards and start increasing pay.

Full fucking stop.

I always find it ironic when religious people try to use race as a justification for their bigotry when Jesus was clearly of middle eastern descent.

It infuriates me beyond belief that I was one of the few individuals who actually read through the bible when I was forced to go to catholic school.

That and the absolutely abhorrent state of humanity really designates evidence that these books of all major religions are just the words of man to trick people into believing a god.

Malleable idiots are the easiest to control, after all. The inquisition proved this and every major violent engagement since has just been additional evidence.

Calling anything we have now "AI" is a marketing gimmick.

There is not one piece of software that exists currently that can truly be labelled AI, it's just advertising for the general population that doesn't educate themselves on current computing technology.

Canada had this problem with Quebec until it was made abundantly clear to the morons running the QC separatist movement that they can leave, but they can't take the dollar with them.

Once the people pushing this nonsense realize it will completely cripple their economy, they'll stop being stupid, at least in this particular regard.

Starting a new currency from scratch is exceptionally difficult and I doubt, with the debts that texas has, that it will be even remotely fungible to pay off their owing surplusses and create a functioning economy.

Just because texas doesn't have ridiculous tax laws on the rich doesn't mean that those tax laws will remain the same once papa government comes calling with the enforcers threatening imprisonment or death for not funding them.

Governments require money to run and texas does not currently have the freedom from financial liability to just go 'we're gonna go our own way', regardless how much they pretend.

There's no world in which a part of an internationally recognized country just outs and picks up their trade agreements, business agreements, and government continuity without fulfilling their former financial obligations.

I actually can't believe how unbelievably uneducated these people in power are that they think it's going to be smooth sailing leaving the republic. Even assuming the president and congress ok's it, you need to literally create all the fundamental requirements for a 'country' from scratch again and prove stability before anyone will conduct business with you and, spoiler alert, breaking away from a country with 11 carrier strike groups is the epitome of stupidity and objectively does not show stability.

Also, being part of a democratically elected government means you can't make a decision like this without a vote (See brexit and the hilarious ramifications of that for a near 1:1 example of what happens when you fuck around with this type of decision and the only reason the UK didn't completely collapse immediately is because they didn't actually adopt the euro and the pound has [had] it's own economic power)

"Generate this copyrighted character"

"Look, it showed us a copyrighted character!"

Does everyone that writes for the NYTimes have a learning disability?

Lol, it always comes back to an intellectually deficient group of morons and their baseless deity.

Because we may have separated from the other great apes several million years ago, but the great ape predilection for tribalism sure hasn't separated from us

I'd posit a well rounded education doesn't necessarily agree with that. You don't need a professional education in a topic to be able to provide a decent opinion, it's just that many people opt not to work on their own educations and prefer to be spoon fed materials, and it's this behaviour that produces morons in almost every context, rather than individuals that have problematic views in a few topics.

taking pro se forces the company to provide evidence and pay for lawyers while you just wait for their case to build, if they don't have a case, then there's no problem, if it gets to trial they have to prove damages, since there aren't any, that will be difficult to prove.

Taking pro se is not recommended in most situations but in this one, where the damages are entirely made up, taking pro se would not be overly tumultuous

Some people on lemmy are smart, likely a higher ratio than many other sites, but there's still a ridiculous surplus of fools

I'll never pay for another capcom game but you can be damn sure that doesn't mean I'll never play another capcom game.

Good work you old dipshits, shooting your long time fanbase instead of doing literally anything else
