Not sure if it’s my specific app or lemmy as a whole, but that spoiler tag isn’t working. Sometimes they’ll break if you put a space between the tag and your text.

Looks like reddit spoiler tags just don’t work in general

There was some social commentary in that golden casino planet where the rich lived in excess while the poor barely got by (pay no attention to the Jabba behind the curtain)
And, of course, they cast minorities in leading roles!
While I agree with the sentiment here, this is pretty 1-dimensional. For one, US support of Ukraine actually has little to do with democracy and everything to do with national sovereignty. One nation with imperial ambitions invaded another nation without pretense, US provides aid to stave off that invasion.
Hypocritical given US history of imperialism? Sure. But it’s NOT imperialism under the mask of democracy.
Similar arguments apply to various points on this list. Supporting NATO is about maintaining a military alliance against common enemies, not spreading democracy.
Nah, it was good at being what it was supposed to be. Not every movie needs to be an artistic cinematic masterpiece.
Or one less cup of coffee
Man, I knew fingerprint encryption was bad but that is nuts.
Antibiotics. Turned so many lethal wounds into minor cuts.
“Turn up the volume and listen to that engine purr”
Honestly don’t even remember, but it was in my peak “know enough to be dangerous” days in college. I almost certainly didn’t have to go that nuclear to fix it, but that’s what I did.
Take 2 of Arch, after that wipe was completed, went pretty well. It revived an old piece of shit laptop for another few years before its motherboard gave out.
My first attempt at running Arch, I managed to fuck it up so badly that I had to write a script to write zeros to every bit of my HDD. Fun times.
My favorite fortress fail was from a were-iguana. A visitor turned into a giant iguana in the middle of the dining hall and caused a minor ruckus before my militia dispatched it. 2/10 invasion, really not that special.
Then next full moon there were 7 of them, including my militia commander. Oops. Pay attention to combat logs when you fight a were-creature! Quarantine the bitten!
Yeah, we’ve learned that people would rather buy a $25 thing with free shipping than the same thing for $20 plus $3 shipping. Tagging on extra fees hurts your image more than just raising the price to cover all fees yourself.
It’s not about the crops, farmers work by the sun, not by the clock.
It was able conserving candles and oil, for lighting rooms.
France definitely didn’t control Eastern Spain in 1507.
Banning tax prep companies is a bad, poorly thought out idea.
Simplifying tax prep is the avert. Doing what the rest of the developed world does, where the IRS sends you a receipt and you can either accept that or manually file if you think you owe less.
Banning tax prep companies just hurts people who have a nonstandard tax situation. Small business owners, people with tax relief from disabilities, all manner of normal people in niche situations. Don’t take away the tools they need, remove the opportunity for parasite companies to prey upon average people.
OR have a mandatory specialist/professional input throughout the process
People on the internet don’t like to hear this, but that’s called Lobbying.
My previous job finally got off of lotus notes in 2019.
Joke’s on you, I’m Buddhist!
