I’ve had to move around my airpods to get them to charge but often times when i close the case they stop charging. I will never again Apple headphones.

I’ve had 3 pairs of Apple Airpods. All three of them eventually had problems with charging. One bud would be full charge and the other empty. Sometimes I’d put them in the case and the light indicates they are charging but come back later

A base assumption that every law comes with an implied "lets the Executive define, without any restriction, what this agency should do" is certainly not something I'd want… You badly misunderstand what Chevron deference was

There wasn’t a capricious change with every administration. You can point to isolated examples but not some over arching, wide ranging scheme. Your view about it being a good thing that Chevron is gone will not age well. You will be like

For 40 years or so laws granting regulatory authority to federal agencies were written with the understanding that Chevron Deference was the law of the land. Now those laws grating regulatory authority are going to be considered too vague

Congress has the power to impeach and remove judges. It’s a political decision to do such a thing. I advocate that Congress exercise this power. This is no way means I don’t want a judiciary. The reason Congress was given this power was

We will soon see what a huge and harmful deal the recent Chevron ruling is. The Supreme Court needs to be gutted.

Firstly, sprawl is the result only if it is around a central core(s) to which many people need to travel on a frequent basis. This is wrong. As an extreme example consider this. If all families in the U.S. were as evenly distributed as p

I don’t care where anyone lives. I’m just stating the fact that being more spread out, having larger homes, larger yards, etc. is not a low carbon option.
220.
by skhunted 2y ago
Having houses spread out and lowering population density is bad for environment. More roads need to be built, more infrastructure needs to be built, etc. We consume too much. America is not in danger of having too much population density

Car commuting is a carbon problem. So is buying a larger house, lower living density, and larger yards. I’m addressing solely the claim about this being lower carbon footprint. I’m not addressing any other issues or concerns.
222.
by skhunted 2y ago
Buying larger houses further spread out decreases population density. This is not low-carbon to boot.

You have a capacity for missing the point.

Historians of science would be interested in the topic as would those studying the sociology of scientific communities. In this day of rampant pseudoscience and distrust of scientists it is of interest to know if and how fellow scientists

I mentioned to someone I game with that I was no longer following the NFL since there are too many things about it that I find repugnant. He responded with, “Oh, cancel culture…” I didn’t engage with this response but I found it quite biz

Russian fear of a liberal democracy - Mearsheimer’s words - in Ukraine comes from the fact that Russia is a personalist autocracy and its autocrat fears this. The fear is not rational in that it is a threat to Russian sovereignty or territ

Yes. I was referring to the comment about “blood kin”. Not all peoples native to present day PRC borders are “blood kin” and certainly not all people from Taiwan are Han.

by skhunted 2y ago
I do not understand Xi’s abandonment of Deng’s wise policies. The One China, Two Systems approach was working and had it gone well may have induced Taiwan to similarly integrate with the PRC. Now, I doubt that will ever happen.

We have thousands of years of examples of two “blood kin” groups attacking each other. In addition to this is the fact that not all peoples with roots in present day PRC are Chinese. Tibet is a region of PRC that is not Chinese, for examp

Dump enough forever chemicals, petro chemicals, pharmaceuticals, micro plastics, and other junk into the water supply and environment then eventually there will be negative consequences.

Thanks for the summary. Sounds like a good bill. I hope in the future there will more of an emphasis on online sites designed to encourage in person interactions. Meetup was great for a while in my area but now Discord seems to be used m

That is not my reasoning. You believe people who despise Musk stay on Twitter because they are too stupid to know of alternatives. You assert this to be true. I believe the reason is something different. We have two opposing beliefs. N

by skhunted 2y ago
Too many smart, savvy people who despise Musk stay on the platform for it to be believable that stupidity is the reason.

by skhunted 2y ago
The evidence is that there are lots of people who despise Musk and what he has done to Twitter who still use it. That's what speaks to it's dominance and speaks to the network effects it has.

When Twitter enforced their policies on Trump and other right wing posters Republicans complained about “mainstream” media manipulating elections by suppressing their messaging. Those people ought to be consistent and decry Musks’ shenanig

He is not a strategic asset for the U.S. He isn’t taken down like Jack Ma because the U.S. is a different system than China. SpaceX would not collapse if Musk were replaced as CEO. Same for the other companies.

This answers the question asked in your first sentence: You know what I don't see even at my kid's young age? Sometimes parents suck or just lack knowledge or means to do the right thing and thus society in the form of governmen

I don’t know how well or bad this bill will be but it’s a good idea to try to stop the mental health assault being inflicted on users of social media. Humans haven’t evolved to be able to handle the targeted messaging that is common on Fac
