Carbon capture is not an immediate solution or even a viable one. It's just so the corporations can keep greenwashing.

Not that carbon capture wouldn't work eventually, but there would be a clean energy problem either way.

Vote the person you want into power, and then make their life miserable until they fold. Protest, halt the economy, get out there and ask for what you want while those people are in power. Beats asking for what you want while they are not, and election week is not the only week that matters.

You rarely ever see a protest in the U.S, and if there is one it's always wayy too late.

RedditWanderer ,

Witholding your vote just means you give more chances to the person you least want to see in power.

RedditWanderer ,

So you're saying it's harder to protest in America than say, Hong Kong, Iran?

RedditWanderer ,

When youre famous they let you do it.

He's probably going to win the election at this pace and then we're all fucked.

RedditWanderer ,

Excuse me, but I have my "appeal" flag and my "don't have to pay as much as everyone else" flag.

RedditWanderer ,

Who the fuck cares what musks says about Ukraine. He literally bought twitter to sell disinformation for dictatorships

RedditWanderer ,

Lemmings did the tough thing months (years?) ago when thousands of third party apps and community development went to waste.

He took the easy way out and helped spez IPO.

RedditWanderer ,

Billionaire only went to prison because he fucked with billionaires. If this had only affected the lower/middle class, he would have gotten off with a slap on the wrist.

He won't serve 25 either, maybe 5 at most.

RedditWanderer ,

That's not possible sir, this is the Internet

RedditWanderer ,

Does she have anywhere else to hide near where there is activity in the house?

RedditWanderer ,

"everything will be fine if only the right people are in charge".

You call it the democrats blanket but you don't even understand what it means. You just assume the opposing opinion to yours can be summed up to one line.

What democrats do say is that you certainly can't do anything with the wrong people in charge. Especially in the US where the only thing the last GOP president did is undo whatever the guy who laughed at him did. Oh and give enormous tax cuts to the rich while cutting in "useless" social programs like SCHOOL LUNCHES AND CLEAN WATER.

RedditWanderer ,

He literally googled your argument and picked up the first thing he found/ someone else used previously on Reddit.

He is incapable of understanding why it's irrelevant.

RedditWanderer ,

Lethal is lethal. Less than lethal*

RedditWanderer ,

There are not varying degrees of death.

They're called that way because unlike a knife, they dont "kill less frequently" but "don't kill" (at least by design).

You can't be less dead. You can be less than dead. Plus I was intentionally making a pedantic asterisk because he did one, i dont really care if it's right to what he implied.

RedditWanderer ,

Apparent self-inflicted wound, found in his truck outside the hotel he was staying at while he was testifying.

RedditWanderer ,

The guillotine was mostly used after the revolution, to kill political opponents of the ruling party that took over. More of an animal farm type deal than a revolution.

RedditWanderer ,

In the classic capitalist way, the solution is always "more". So the plan is likely to send more food, so Israel can keep bombing the shit out of it, some will make it, and enormous profits will be generated in the process.

We did it Patrick. We saved Palestine.

RedditWanderer ,

Not directly providing the weapons shooting at the food that is already there would be a great start for the US..

Nobody is saying not to give food to the Palestinians, quite the opposite.

RedditWanderer ,

Please quote the part where I blame country B for the actions of A. I'll wait.

In the meantime, we're talking about criticizing the plan to circumvent a problem country B is actively participating in. Join in when you feel comfortable.

RedditWanderer ,

Or more likely, they had a mutual agreement until Britain wanted its own thing, so they exit the deal. Seems like something the English would do. We could have called it Brexit or something

what exactly does "keep in touch" mean?

I've been doing some interviews lately, and my most recent one seemed to be my most promising one so far, until he started doing what he called "light tech screening" and did some trivia questions to test my knowledge on what goes on under the hood. I do admit, I should have been better prepared on the topics, and didn't do as...

RedditWanderer ,

It means to keep in touch. If something happens on his end he'll let you know, and if anything changes on your side to also let him know. Imo it means "keep me updated if anything changes". Normally it would mean both parties keep each other updated, but I wouldn't take it personally if he doesn't, he's got the big end of the stick.

I would adivse to only contact him in a few weeks as agreed, or to let him know if in the end you don't intend to do it, or something comes up and you need more time.

RedditWanderer , (edited )

Keep in touch means: Update me if anything changes. Don't update him on your progress towards what you agreed on, only if you won't make it or gave up or something.

Normally I would agree with people here that he was just being nice, it may happen in a call where the recruiter is awkward and got caught off guard. Generally you would end the interview and wait for feedback by email instead of getting it directly in the call, it may have been a inexperienced recruiter or a tiny company with no process. 3 weeks does sound short to clear any gaps in your knowledge.

What I know for sure in 20 years in the industry is that companies will tell you "sorry it's policy to wait X months before applying again" instead of making you waste your time applying in a few weeks. I'm not really buying he was being nice if he agreed to chat again. I would advise writing to him again in a few weeks, telling him you had a go and feel much more confident. Tell him you understand that the opportunity may have passed but that you wanted to make good on your agreement to get back to him, and that you appreciate his feedback either way. This implies of course he agreed to check back in a few weeks

You may not get a reply at all, but it's worth a shot given he specifically agreed to chatting again in a few weeks. You have nothing to lose. While the job may have passed, there are more and I've often made connections in interviews for jobs I didn't get, that ended up paying off later when meeting them again.

RedditWanderer ,

If you said: Hey can I email you in a few weeks and he said yes, then do it.

If you asked "can i poke you in 3 weeks" and he just ambiguously replied "let's keep in touch", then I would not write again.

Most people will connect even if they don't expect to hear

RedditWanderer ,

And it's important to take the time! They deserve it and will be a huge improvement to their life. Don't let them chonk, they are really sad when they dechonk.

RedditWanderer ,

Carbon removal was never sustainable in this decade. It's green washing and people getting rich of subsidies

RedditWanderer ,

I don't get this meme.

Do both, vote for the lesser evil and demand change by protesting. Those are not mutually exclusive concepts. You are definitely not going to get change by not voting, all you are doing is allowing the more evil to win and prevent you from protesting ever again.

RedditWanderer ,

You misspelled "that's why I'm giving my vote to trump" ( that's what not voting does)

RedditWanderer ,

Sadly this doesn't take into account a two party voting system, and is completely wrong. They know they chose evil.

The weakness is Americans sitting on their ass, never peotesting.

RedditWanderer ,

Nobody asked for "trust". Just try to take a second to understand what the two party system is or even how the german system works. Keep cherry-picking info like you live in nazi germany, that just makes it easy to see you have no idea what you're talking about and are repeating popular (trash) arguments lmao

RedditWanderer ,

That is specifically why people bang on about this. It's counterintuitive but it's literally not like you put it.

Whichever side you want, not participating in voting gives you the best chances of ending up with the person you want the least to be in office. It's not a biden or trump thing. This is why voting matters.

RedditWanderer ,

Did you just try to insult me for being on lemmy.. on lemmy?

You have no way of knowing who I am or what I have published, you're just making stuff up cherry-picking info that "makes sense to you".

RedditWanderer ,

It's Joe, he's making the fucking whales gay, with the frogs.

RedditWanderer ,

Might lose us the election to the conservatives. The conservative government is still calling to aid Israel and stop "helping hamas".

RedditWanderer ,

Putin to consider doing whatever the fuck he wants because nobody is really stopping him.

FTFY

RedditWanderer ,

Which is a fucking lot, much more than he needs to cause global political and cultural damage.

RedditWanderer ,

Laughs in natural gas and china. He might run out of bodies, maybe.

RedditWanderer ,

Could have used less than half of that butter considering the ingredients amounts that were being cooked.

RedditWanderer ,

Don't forget defunding EPA and clean water programs, and the delay/added damage is costing a lot more in American tax monies. Except it's during the Dems term so Republicans are happy to make things expensive, and whine about it until they can get back into office and do nothing about it.

RedditWanderer ,

Obviously by extinguish they mean shoot, and by "fire" they mean people of color.

RedditWanderer ,

"Seen tossing a chistmas tree". In a fucking tree tossing competition where she made the news. I feel the title should have specified parts of that.

RedditWanderer ,

They're never too young to teach them how to properly use a weapon. It's so they don't get hurt with it! /s

RedditWanderer ,

In case you are wondering his delay tactics and appeal is not to say that he did not do these things, he's trying to argue that he paid back the loans he fraudulently acquired so no harm no foul. He's actually opening himself up to more lawsuits, but by then he hopes to Pardon himself as president

RedditWanderer ,

Yes, all the laws are void, except the malfeasance of office felonies
