@supersat@McFranchisee Nah, I'd much rather places have their own local compute and stop building fucking AI datacenters (as well as tearing down most of the ones already built).
@YoungbloodJoe Did not fucking ask me "what else" as if you're trying to prompt me to order more. "Anything else" if what you ask. Fuck these stupid sales mindgames.
NEW: Cancer rates in Iowa are rising faster than anywhere else in the country.
Politicians blame individual choices, but the real villain is the industrial farming covering the state.
We went, tested the water, and found cancer causing levels of chemicals running through Iowa.
California voters banned gestation crates in 2018. Sixty-three percent. Massachusetts did it in 2016. Seventy-eight percent. The pork industry sued both times and lost all the way to the Supreme Court.
So they did what you do when democracy keeps saying no. They added a provision to the House farm bill to nullify both state laws and preempt any future state effort to do the same thing. One industry. One provision. Millions of votes erased.
The largest pork producer in America is Smithfield. Smithfield is owned by a Chinese company. Congress just passed a House farm bill that overrides the will of American voters in order to protect a Chinese corporation's right to confine pregnant pigs in cages too small to turn around for their entire lives.
This is not a close call on the merits. Eighty-four percent of Americans in polling called that practice unacceptable. Tomi Lahren called the Save Our Bacon provision unprintable things. Mike Cernovich called it demonic. When an industry loses the argument with 84 percent of the public, loses in court, loses at the ballot box twice, and still wins in Congress... that is not democracy. That is a purchasing decision.
The Senate still has a vote. The conference committee still has a choice. The question is whether Congress works for the American electorate or for the National Pork Producers Council and the Chinese company that owns Smithfield.
All Parts Of The Same Machine: Police running down harassing this guy over a post on Facebook about protesting Data Centers.
THE POLICE ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS. THEY ENFORCE THE WILL OF THE EPSTEIN CLASS.
The Trump administration is sending ships to rip 900 ocean sensors out of the Atlantic and Pacific โ and Congress already told them twice they couldn't do it.**
They're doing it anyway.
@linabob_@OverSizedMonkie Because the sub isn't ever "better quality x100." Sometimes the voices fit the characters better, sometimes the quality is slightly better, but not all the time. Often the English dub is better for one of those reasons.
@keshnaidoosa The "emotion that the Japanese VA produce" is called "overacting." It is overdramatic and you just don't understand that because you are not a native Japanese speaker.
