Sad, but true.

Not Just Bikes informed many about city planning.

“I’m Gonna Miss Her” is a single released by Brad Paisley as the second single off of his album Part II. The song reached the top of the Billboard Hot Country songs chart.

The song describes a man who goes fishing a lot. He is confronted by his wife at home after one of the fishing trips where she tells him that he has to choose between her or the fishing. The song then describes how Brad is “gonna miss her”, the listener can then figure out that Brad choose fishing over his wife.

According to a 2004 issue of Country Weekly magazine, Brad said he co-wrote the song with Frank Rogers in high school during a talent contest where he decided to write a comedy song instead of the ballads he was writing prior.^[1]

Just to make sure you understand, this article was written by Ethan Dodd, not the Zionist Bari Weiss.

Ethan Dodd is a journalist who lives in Washington DC and focuses on business and economics.

She did create The Free Press, though.

About The Free Press:

The Free Press is a new media company founded by Bari Weiss and built on the ideals that once were the bedrock of great journalism: honesty, doggedness, and fierce independence. We publish investigative stories and provocative commentary about the world as it actually is—with the quality once expected from the legacy press, but the fearlessness of the new.

Awesome.

Thank you for asking questions!

I am not a fan of Zionist Barry Weiss, but I thought the article was informative.

I posted a Jimmy Dore (some cannot handle his views/commentary, so be warned) critique of Barry Weiss once I saw her association.

Thanks for the Axios article; it does not mention:

A final irony: On the same day Biden blocked the Nippon Steel deal on “national security” grounds, the U.S. approved the sale of $3.6 billion worth of air-to-air missiles to Japan.

Axios:

President Biden blocked Japan’s Nippon Steel from buying U.S. Steel last week, earning the approval of the United Steelworkers union, which desperately wanted the deal crushed.

The Free Press:

The far more likely result, however, is that Pennsylvania steelworkers will soon be out of work, as U.S. Steel had vowed to move to non-union Arkansas if its deal with Nippon Steel were turned down.

Local union leaders from two of the three Mon Valley plants supported Nippon, with Jason Zugai, vice president of USW Local 2227, saying that 95 percent of the union members at his Irvin Works support the deal. U.S. Steel’s corporate executives, elected officials, and hundreds of workers rallied to show their support in late November.

In other words, in kowtowing to a union leader who has been a long-time political ally, Biden ignored the wishes of an important ally, Japan; members of his own cabinet; and the union workers themselves. He is also hurting the country, which would be far better served if Nippon Steel reinvigorated U.S. Steel, something it is uniquely positioned to do.

It reminded me of when Biden helped crush the railroad strike and the union’s opportunity for the workers to get better benefits and time off.

IMO: a well done video about the Railroad Stike and Biden, https://lemmy.world/post/24263602

I agree, the duopoly acts like they are for the working class while doing the bidding of the owner class; giving crumbs to the working class does not make them union supporters.

A quick search, and I was able to find a couple of AI sites that can create songs.

Trial and error, go for it!

Nicely done, AI-generated response!

Which did you use?

I also think it is a tool being used to help push out whatever content the person using it wants.

It may be seen in the history books as akin to the Industrial Revolution.

The Industrial Revolution, sometimes divided into the First Industrial Revolution and Second Industrial Revolution, was a period of global transition of the human economy towards more widespread, efficient and stable manufacturing processes that succeeded the Agricultural Revolution. Beginning in Great Britain, the Industrial Revolution spread to continental Europe and the United States, from around 1760 to about 1820–1840. This transition included going from hand production methods to machines; new chemical manufacturing and iron production processes; the increasing use of water power and steam power; the development of machine tools; and the rise of the mechanised factory system. Output greatly increased, and the result was an unprecedented rise in population and the rate of population growth. The textile industry was the first to use modern production methods, and textiles became the dominant industry in terms of employment, value of output, and capital invested.

I think it is the future of media and content sharing for those that can afford it or know how to use it.

It is just another tool being used to create the content you desire.

Improvements are needed, but I have seen really well-done ones where a general introductory topic is discussed.

Oh, you reminded me to check out Yanis Varoufakis’s latest videos!

He talks of imperialism and the differences between China and the USA.

Thanks for the meme!

Apologetics and celebrity worshippers: people that defend politicians instead of being critical and forcing them to bend to the will of the working class.

Edit: added Syria, so as to be more detailed on topic being discussed

George Galloway is currently talking about [Syria], live.

For those interested: https://lemmy.world/post/22915919

Prof. Mohammad Marandi is about to join him.

Key Points:

1. AMD Ryzen 7 9800 X3D Dominance: This CPU excels in both overall performance and gaming, making it the clear favorite for high-end builds. Its competitive pricing further enhances its appeal.
2. Gaming Performance Over Everything: The focus on pure gaming metrics reveals AMD’s continued lead in the gaming CPU market, especially with the 9800 X3D outperforming rivals by significant margins.
3. Balanced Workstation Gaming: The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X provides a solid compromise for users needing both gaming and productivity capabilities, emphasizing the importance of versatility in CPU choice.
4. Budget Options Are Limited: The sub-$100 CPU market is aging, with few new entries, highlighting the need for better budget offerings to cater to entry-level gamers.
5. Upgrade Potential: The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 X3D stands out for its compatibility with existing AM4 motherboards, promoting sustainability and cost-effectiveness in upgrades.
6. Efficiency Gains: The Ryzen 5 7600 X3D showcases impressive efficiency, demonstrating that high performance does not have to come at the cost of high power consumption.
7. Intel’s Ongoing Struggles: Intel’s recent generations faced significant stability issues, which have eroded consumer confidence, emphasizing the need for reliable product launches in a competitive market.

Notable comments:

1. @Loxly-ti4sq | 1 hour ago | The fact that I can use a motherboard from 2017 to run a R7 5700X3D is crazy. Going from R5 3600 to this CPU doubles the framerate on some games, and not to mention the skyrocketing 1% low. As someone who isn’t playing at 2k/4k monitor and is rocking a 6700XT for 1080p, I might just wait for AM6 for my next upgrade lol.
2. @jeffb.6642 | 1 hour ago | It’s to the point now that “Stability” needs to be considered when making a CPU purchase, too.
3. @Kendog | 1 hour ago | I know the best overall gaming CPU is the 9800X3D and the 7800X3D and I haven’t even watched the whole video yet

True!

I wonder if the numbers will have an impactful change when comparing the people that said they would move out of the U.S. due to 2016/2020/2024.

That would require money, which most of the working class does not have.

The people spewing this rhetoric are those higher up the food chain; moving out of the US was also said in 2016 and 2020.

Oh, thanks for that information!

This is just a picture.

TIL.

Thanks for sharing!

Edit: added quote below

By design, WebExtensions is more limited than the promiscuous extension mechanism. By design, it also works better. Most of the Firefox development tax has disappeared, as only the WebExtensions API needs to be protected, rather than the entire code of Firefox. Most of the maintenance tax has disappeared, as the WebExtensions API are stable (there have unfortunately been a few exceptions). It is also much simpler to use, lets add-on developers share code between Firefox and Chromium add-ons and should eventually make it easier to write extensions that work flawlessly on Desktop and Mobile.
