Yeah, I have to get drug tested a lot in my career and have an Adderall prescription. Firstly only one employer has even attempted to drug test me themselves because what they need is to know anything I test positive for is prescribed. Secondly that one that bucked the wisdom of others (it was a job placement agency) fucked up royally by kicking me out as I tried telling them that legally since I can prove I have a prescription for it they can’t reject me for it (this is why most don’t want to know, it opens liabilities). In their parking lot I reported them to the EEOC who declined to sue, but told me I had a case and I was allowed to. No justice here though, I’d gotten a different job by then and didn’t care enough to sue for a job I never wanted

They’ve already written reasonable amicus briefs, what further cruelty can we inflict upon them?

Yeah that was the law when he was elected. People keep acting like it’s the same as America, but here it’s the opposite. Politicians should follow election laws both in letter and in spirit

They’re definitely rare, far more rare than many of the similar things to them like their opposite (chimerism where multiple sets of DNA but one person) or fraternal twins. But there’s a lot of people and identical twins have advantages for child acting especially but acting in general. Then consider that likelihood of identical twins is a genetic trait and getting a break in acting is much easier if you have family in the industry.

Long story short, it’s rare enough that even if you know several twins you may not know any identicals, but common enough that it’s not weird for random actors to have an identical twin. It’s typically just a lucky thing though and they rarely cast around it except for children (labor laws)

The wife and I made a retro game console. But we mostly use it for kodi

Yeah early photovoltaic solar panels weren’t great, in the same way early ev batteries weren’t great. They’ve become far longer lasting and more efficient. The listed life isn’t when it craps out, it’s when it is no longer guaranteed to be within a certain stated efficiency. Much like how phone batteries slowly lose charge capacity as cells break, that’s how solar panels are. For a long time you won’t notice but eventually it’ll break down enough it’s noticeable, and eventually before it stops producing it’ll just not be worth the space that could be used for new panels.

Yeah, the new deal was a prime example of it working. When there’s no work because nobody has any money to spend because there’s no work like in the great depression the government taking out loans to hire a bunch of people to improve the country in various ways is a great investment. It breaks the deadlock. But if you don’t take it back out of times where the economy can handle some slowing you just get inflation and you lose your control lever for when the economy slows down. High highs cause low lows, and while nobody likes the economy slowing down (hence why presidents stopped doing it) people prefer a stable economy with lessened booms and busts

You ever been to southern Libya? Basically it’ll be like there

Well there are Estados Unitidos, but those are in Mexico

Because I’ve been told by people of the other nations of these two continents that it bugs them and I had a nice and easy alternative

Absolutely vital, i wish they showed this enthusiasm when they had a chance of passing it

This also intentionally targets trans people since getting your birth certificate changed is a pain in the ass and they’ve intentionally targeted our ability to get passports in the current regime.

Those laws have been going away in the 21st century, they’re relics of a time when the government didn’t have great records of things like marriage

What I’d prefer is her just being thrown under the bus in a fair trial. The irony of her facing style of justice will escape her, but the betrayal of her allies in rhe face of real and fair justice would hit her hard

I’m an industrial engineer who was hanging out on lemmy and my IT guy was talking about his piracy server, and well I thought that a legitimately aquired media server might be nice, and that home assistant thing sounded cool so he gave me the form to get two used desktops for free from the company. And well now I’m still fucking around with them every once in a while in anticipation for when my space will warrant actually using them full time.

It also helps that my local bdsm community had had self hosters who talked about it for years.

Nope, Catholics used Latin at the time and it’s also just not a great English translation, also they don’t have exactly the same books. Though apparently in 2020 someone published a catholic variant of the kjv

Pope better not be using that protestant rag of a translation. Also it’s infamously the worst translated English language bible prioritizing poetic phrasing and political points of the eponymous King James VI/I over accuracy of translation and readability. Hell the point in the article is even worse given that the trump bible is the king james

The king James is only treated as the default in lots of America because of a weird culture war thing

Because they think “miracle drug” means cure all and not “holy shit this antiparasitic works really well on so many parasites with minor side effects to mammals”

One trick that may help is asking her if she has a reputable source. I got sucked into believing what I saw on reddit a few years ago and that’s what my wife did. Got to the point that when I tell her the news I say who said it if it sounds sensational and like it may be unrealistic.
