Oh no I assure you, this was an executive decision. The VP of manufacturing, specifically.
We don't let Interns make purchase orders at all, let alone call shots like that. Especially not for big ticket items like these weldments.

Oh I feel this in my soul. Recently my company was going to buy some very important welded structures, and instead of working with the American company that we promised the business to, one executive went over everyone's heads to buy these from the offshore team, despite protests from literally everyone.
They came in today each one is $100k worth of scrap metal. Absolutely unsalvageable pieces of shit. Truly a colossal level of fuckup.
Will the execs learn? Probably not.
Counterpoint: Civilians get arrested all the time for flying FPV drones and similar over military bases. See this article for an example: https://www.military.com/daily-news/2024/12/11/chinese-citizen-arrested-after-allegedly-flying-drone-taking-photos-of-space-force-base.html
This is the US military we're talking about. They have the capabilities to know exactly what's above their base's airspace and have still chosen to do nothing. This implies that most of the drones are military controlled.
About 3 in 10 are highly confident in Trump on Cabinet, spending or military oversight: AP-NORC poll
Of course it's 3/10. 33% of the country think that he was sent by God. 1/3 of the country are mindlessly loyal Trumpers.
Pretty much any poll regarding Trump's policies on anything shows this ~33% number.
That's not even him. Completely different backpack and jacket.
1000%. Almost nothing else has stayed as popular and as relevant for as long as Minecraft. Truly one of the GOATs.
Yeah. What he did to the Sand People was a hate crime.
I have accounts on both. Sh.itjust.works has a piracy community that .world blocks and is still federated with Hexbear for some reason. .world has old.lemmy.world if you liked the old reddit UI.
Otherwise, not that different.
I'd vote for Jake
It's anecdotal, but I second the guy recommending in-person clubs. I was very much in the same boat this time last year. In the spring I mustered the social courage and reached out to a local LARP group.
The people I've met through that have been extremely welcoming and kind. I very quickly made friends and my mental health improved a lot.
None of us are going to get to vote anymore
