I can understand that if you’re from a seal-on-bedsheet state, but I’d figure especially at the moment democrats in Maryland, New Mexico, Texas, Colorado (I definitely saw a lot of state flags alone in Denver), California, Hawaii etc. have a lot of reasons to prefer their actually nice flags

In England there’s two flags, a flag for if you’re racist (English flag, except if there’s a major sporting event), and the British flag for if you’re proud of your country in a non racist way
Does it work the same way in the more reasonable US states with the state vs national flag?
I think there’s something to be said for removing the power of their symbols by using them for other things, but of course some things are too far yes
There’s a few like this, when’s the last time you met a nigel?
The thumb muscle being the intersection bayern the thumb and palm right?
For me it’s my middle finger but same effect I guess
Although listening it sounds more like the sound is coming as it moves past the knuckle
If it’s Hirevue, I stopped bothering after 5 or so, I’d never got through one and yet managed to get through every single HR phone screen etc.
It depends if it’s AI grading it or not I guess, as AI has no understanding of nuance so will just accept a very narrow range of similar candidates
1rreto The Democratic People's Republic of Tankiejerk@lemmy.world•Good thing the tankies are here to protect these powerful capitalist governments61·17 days agoFor the US and Saudi they’re really not, sure they’re way worse than the average country but nothing compared to what Iran are doing, and frankly Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran are all so far down the tyrrany slope that it’s hard to justify being on any of their sides for anything
1rreto MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works•If there's one thing the USSR and CCP were always super well-known for, it is no famines. They solved that shit. As is well known.English17·17 days agoThey’re also super well known for ending imperialism, those dastardly empires on the Baltic Sea/in the Caucasus/in Central Asia were no match for the totally non-imperialist spread of russian culture and rule

You could say the same for Palestine and yet a lot of the same people who criticise China and Russia love to praise Palestine…
I think a lot more of it is based on either who is the aggressor or a deep rooted hatred of the west depending on whether or not you’re a tankie
Long term, probably less good of an idea than using LLVM, especially when you get into the MLIR extensions which let you define super simple transforms, however for just adding extensions to rust, using rust is probably a good idea.
If you can, put things on the walls - you can get cheap paintings from charity shops, posters etc
only if
chown -R nobody:nobody /usr/lib
returns a nonzero status code right?
That’s why we invented bridges and viaducts, we didn’t want the trains to feel left out
I’m not convinced on this whole “things happening in Austria” malarkey, it sounds very unlikely
On the /s, I somewhat unironically agree with that more than the case of just obtaining citizenship
woe is me, a news source that wants to remain independent of outside interests is taking steps to avoid having to get funded by big businesses or the government who’ll want to set an agenda…
I’d be more concerned about reading something free and not ad-supported (and like it or not, untargeted ads are next to worthless), as the money has to be coming from somewhere
Sponsored by DPD?
For real though unless it’s both a simple and already recognisable symbol, or doesn’t belong on a state or national flag…
There’s of course allowances for local culture and history, eg. standards vs flags in Britain & Ireland - Wales is the only one to use their standard rather than flag though, first nations flags being more complex, traditional chinese flags + bhutan having more complex symbols, but taking a complex symbol and reducing it down to something oversimplified breaks both the rules of the symbols being recognisable and of the symbols being conceptually simple - it’d be better to just put a detailed rose, otherwise it just looks like a corporate logo: all you’d be missing is some royalty free corporate nothing music as the national anthem
Obviously UK consumer protection is different so they may not have the “feature” here, but cars get their milage recorded yearly (after the first 3 years) as part of roadworthiness testing, available online given the licence plate, so I can see I did 7041 miles in the last year.
Does the DMV not have something similar?
