He’s the oldest president in our history and eats McDonald’s frequently…

That’s pretty solid

Well, your state still decided to guzzle his balls anyway. And seriously? Of all the shit, THIS was the one? Not the LGBT discrimination, the blanket pardon of ALL the J6 traitors, the attempted removal of birthright citizenship, the mass deportation orders…I could go on…but the name of something impacts NO ONE. Sorry, but this is like #999 on the priority list

Apparently not enough to vote for someone else…

Same time Elon did the old Sieg Heil in front of a live, televised audience at the inauguration. Golly, I wonder if these events are related…what the actual fuck

It’s called Instagram or YouTube Shorts. Same thing…TikTok offered nothing new. And I’m here, but all I see on Lemmy are the same posts 3-4 times, predictable pearl clutching reactions to everything, and very limited news coverage with a proclivity for posting random, fringe sources

We just implemented a 4 point scale for What we have accomplished and a 4 point scale for How we accomplished our work. But here is the fun part, no one was allowed to get a 4 because that should be reserved for industry changing innovations or something. And then we found out that the highest you could get on the How metric is a 2. So we have a 4x4 matrix with only like 4 combinations possible. Its ridiculous

That’s Italy…not Spain…

Sometimes a simple mistake leads to an act of disobedience that shines a light on the foolishness of the rule in question. This is one of those times. A dress code like this is also a way of gatekeeping players that may not have the means to meet the dress code.

I’m not suggesting they need to scrap the level of decorum entirely, but allowing for modern interpretations of business attire is reasonable.

Also, he offered to correct the faux pas the next day of the tournament, and they refused. The article mentioned they also forced someone to leave to change their shoes - which was also ridiculous. Magnus just has enough clout to stand up to this. I wouldn’t be surprised if they amended the rule.

It’s a bigger blunder for FIDE…they get headlines now that they kicked possibly the current most famous player in chess over a dress code violation that was not in the least distracting to other players.

He didn’t show up in a T-shirt and jeans, he wore a blazer and a collared shirt.

They just look follish for digging their heels in

For context, 3.7% of their GDP is like $1.5B USD. That’s a bit of a joke

Shut up and take my up vote lol

Lol this article mentions the CEO of Ford as Chris Farley. We should really post better sources here

It’s just the British way of saying it

How well do you think the population would fare if the government goes bankrupt?

On what basis? You are way out of your depth. I’m sorry, but you have no clue what you’re talking about. See my prior comment

You did not remember correctly. This is disclosed on every savings account with a bank that is insured by the FDIC. The limit was raised several years ago.

You shut your fucking mouth about the FDIC. They are 100% industry funded, they supported Americans through the financial crisis so none of them lost a dime from failing banks, they effectively regulate a large number of banks to remediate financial stress before it results in a loss, and they have never taken a dime of taxpayer money.

And they don’t need to hold 100% of the cash in banks, do you hear yourself with how stupid that is? They model how much cash they need from premiums to hold in reserve and they are very effective at it. Also, if losses increase they can levy a special premium on banks to shore up their liquidity position like they did in the financial crisis.

The FDIC actually has a podcast series about how they managed the financial crisis in case you want to educate your ignorant ass. I taught a whole segment in it when I taught Commercial Banking.

Magione was arrested wearing the same scarf/gator, same fake ID, cash, same gun that was used, matches the footage, and had a manifesto claiming responsibility. I know everyone has been circle jerking about him, but I’m going to bet the case will be pretty quick.
