“The Biden administration is trampling the rule of law, hurting borrowers, and abusing taxpayers to chase headlines,” Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx, chair of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, said in a statement at the time.

I'm trying to understand this in good faith, which is probably a mistake. In what way could this possibly harm borrowers? I literally can't see a way that you could even imply that.

That salary is really not that good for an engineer. Living in California that salary is really not that good

For anyone wondering, this is 100% true and not exaggerated. It was so bad you run the blender without plugging it in.

Spam emails are riding on the rails of an existing infrastructure that provides incredible value. I agree that they are wasteful, but damn this is some melodramatic doodoo.

Tldr: some no name dude wrote a country song. One of the lyrics shits on welfare recipients. Conservative hogs lose their mind and his song hits top charts. He comes out backpedaling and claiming we all "interpretted the lyrics wrong" and welfare recipients are victims not leeches. Now everyone is confused.

abandoned mall (lemmy.one)
submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Tucked away in the basement of a still open mall. Originally a bomb shelter, the space was converted in to a retail space. In 2000 they sealed it off and it's sat dormant since.

There are levels to everything. People have a very shallow understanding of how these tools work.

Some ai art is low effort.
Some ai art is extremely involved.

What are your thoughts on balancing changes coming?
What do you want buffed / nerfed.

Obviously submachine guns will see some changes. I really don't want to see the medic nerfed. I think we might see a change to spawn vehicles and beacons

The time has come for me to replace my bed sheets. Just want nice plain white sheets. Preferably some I can buy directly from the mfg online.

Anyone have any recommendations for some that will hold up for a good few years? Budget is very flexible Don't like jersey fabric*

The most obvious option is to donate. For those that are unable, are there other ways? I found a donation page for the mastadom instance but not for lemmy.

I am curious to hear opinions on the concept of user karma in general.

Do people miss it?
Are we better off without it?

From a technicial perspective, I don't see why it couldn't be implemented. I understand Lemmy doesn't track this explicitly. However, using a users post and comment history you could come to a number pretty easily, right? I was considering making a toy app that would take a user and instance and spit out a karma score for post and comments, what would stop others from doing the same?

Will it be inevitably pulled into existence by Lemmy users as we mature the platform?
