>Comparing the fourth quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2023 shows 2.7 million more people working in the United States — 2.9 million more immigrants (legal and illegal) and 183,000 fewer U.S.-born Americans.
@Omega_Variant@matty Took me a while to get shit ready nigger. Only one browser on this box uses Tor and it's a pain in the ass to set up so I used an older box.
@Humpleupagus@TrevorGoodchild Detainment is arrest. Don't know why more Americans don't hate this practice. Isn't it against their constitution to arrest someone without a warrant or something?
@Humpleupagus@Dudebro@TrevorGoodchild All the states had to ratify the constitution didn't they? Didn't that happen after the declaration by like years or something?
Disabled person asks stupid food-based questions because he doesn’t understand how you eating people work.
Alright, can someone explain to me this concept? I do not eat, and thus it makes no sense to me, atleast in my current tired state.
So, you’re ordering from a restaurant and you order a burger, but you then ask for them to add/remove a few toppings, maybe change the patty style or something.
If you can do that, why do restaurants have various burgers listed? why not just have a “standard burger” and then let you choose the toppings yourself. What makes the “presets” if you will any different or any more special? And what sets them apart from any other restaurant which sells burgers?
How are there so many burger restaurants if all of them have the same basic ingredients, surely you’d just go to the closest one, since no burger place would actually be any different than any other burger place, right? I get it for food that actually has to be made or cooked or something like that. But a burger is just, you just stack ingredients ontop of eachother.
Keep in mind, I’m tired, so this might be an exceptionally stupid question.
@disabled Its for ease of use. Burger good n tasty, add burger to menu, prevent customization that will get that exact burger, charge more (sometimes). Really that simple.
@dcc@SAKURARadiochan@PurpCat@allison Tar is caused by sugar added to the tobacco right? It's basically the same stuff that fell over east Palestine. Same chemical reaction anyway IIRC.
@PurpCat@dcc@allison@SAKURARadiochan >tobacco plants will remove so much from soil and deposit them in the leaves so dodgy chemicals get in your smokes
Well but that's true of virtually every plant. The main downside to tobacco (aside from smoking something that wasn't meant to be inhaled) is the PFAS which is almost entirely due to the chemical reaction of lighting sugar on fire. Again same chemical reaction as in EP IIRC.
Smoking cigars solves a majority of these problems and you can further reduce your risk by growing and drying your own tobacco leaves.
@dcc@PurpCat@SAKURARadiochan@allison That's probably because most people don't smoke cigars these days? Would be interested to see a study on the matter.
There's a study or article I am not finding. Where they found PFAS in the urine of all participants. It's everywhere, in every thing. And that's just PFAS, one factor.
Finally, remember, PFAS are needed for national security so shut up and eat your cancer, peasant.
@dcc@PurpCat@SAKURARadiochan@allison Well that and lung cancer I believe is directly correlated with tar in the lungs if I am not mistaken. If that is the case, no tar (or little, I admit to not doing a scholarly deep dive on the matter) is deposited in the lungs when smoking cigars.
@Zergling_man@PurpCat They're black so they'd blend into the natural darkness of your ear. I'm also going to go out on a limb they look cordless too which helps.
Also you'd be surprised (or maybe not) how many wagie managers don't really care what you do if you carry yourself with confidence and don't fuck up too often on the job.
I once told a wagie manager straight to their face that I wasn't responding to them but key words (it was loud) and they didn't seem to mind at all I said it.
Then again I don't really need music I mostly just go on fantasy adventures and shit in my head if I am super bored.
Graf-sama just donated 1.488 XMR (~$300) to NCD. Part of the resilience of the fediverse is the fact that we as instance administrators support each other because we want the decentralized network to survive.
I hope that NCD users donate so I can continue provide you, the user, more, better, faster services. Let me give you MORE FUN STUFF.
Poast users - there's not a single good reason why you cannot meet and exceed that $2000/month goal. There are, what, 31,000 of you? If each of you gave Graf $5 a month in whatever currency you prefer, he could also give you MORE COOL SHIT.
We want to provide you with what you want, but the simple fact of the matter is that datacenters, bandwidth and hardware aren't free. This is a community effort.
