I am not a "liberal expert", but am generally familiar.

The president can't do anything they want, forever.

Biden used an executive order to enact a bunch of assistance programs during the end portion of covid. Included in that were things related to this topic.

Executive orders are temporary, and exist to allow the president to make fast adjustments to hopefully help people out or protect the country, on lots of topics. For example, if the president believes there is an imminent security risk, they can mobilize the military for a short time without Congressional approval.

If it seems like a topic that should be continued (like this one), Congress takes the issue up for a vote. Only Congress can make longer term budget decisions.

In this case Joe manchin campaigned on being aligned with this type of issue, and being aligned with Democrats on a variety of core positions. On several occasions in his career he has gone against this alignment at critically painful moments, and sided with republicans. Essentially not acting as he advertised. With Congress being closely split, his vote really matters.

So bidens temporary appropriations are now ending, and Congress didn't continue them when it was expected they should be able to.

If Biden tried to just order it again, it would be struck down in courts due to this vote. This is an example of the balance of power between executive, representative, and judicial.

I'm not interested in veganism but I am interested (and practicing) massive reductionism, near vegetarianism.

I think that sliding scale of reduced meat consumption is the ONLY move that can be made. (Surprise? Lol)

Americans will accept reduced meat as alternatives are around, but it needs to be a "here's a new fun thing" not a "stop doing that"

Yes, I want to contribute to a project, a product, a group. Every week, and most days of that week.

I don't want to sit around in leisure often, just sometimes.

Be clear, I didn't say I want to further corporate profits, necessarily.

A fair point.

Not moving the goalposts but steam offers the playability index. So to know "which" AAA games at "what" performance is really varied.

I think it is a bunch of media speak that they wrote there and is a poor representation of what the hardware can honestly do.

As always, it pays to research purchases thoroughly.

There are games that aren't appropriate for the hardware, 18 months old or not.

Some people struggle to grasp that.

I'm sure he realizes that. Why wouldn't he?

He simply values the chance to find that money more than the disgust of going through trash

Missed the point, that's still encompassed in the initial list.

Countries all over the world are ramping this up. Yemen, Indonesia, Russia, everywhere.

Absolutely not isolated to one region / sphere

In what way are you incorrect

"it's a prank you idiot, it's too much tunaaaa"

Remember everyone, this shit goes slowly.

They could be holding back charges, to allow other pieces to fall in place. For others to inform / confess, for other trials to conclude.

Probably not, just them being afraid, but it could be.

Move sooner than later, before folks catch on that it isn't getting colder

"most correct" would be to never ever open the fridge.

Obviously as you need things in it, you'll have to open it.

It will be a much smaller thing once user based instance blocking is available

There are a lot of remote data entry positions you could get into. You could study some data analysis on the side, using the data entry as a toe hold in the industry. Lots of free content and datasets to work with to learn on.

Just a suggestion, not cutting you down.

I'd be happy to chat more about that topic if you are interested.

Not degrading you at all, but have you tried recipes with rice and beans? It's filling and nutritious. Frankly I love the taste too

I'm doing better now and still include them as staples in my week.

Every windows machine a job has given me has been a hunk of garbage. At least Mac hardware has a floor of quality. Not perfect by any means, but at least the battery lasts and there's basic horsepower.

Also every windows machine has been with a fossilized company that has tons of IT bloat with tons of spyware authentication shit on it. Hell I had to file (and fight for) wsl privileges on my current windows machine

The Macs I've gotten have been brand new, straight from the manufacturer.

I'm sure that's just luck of the draw but yeah fuck windows shops hah
