If this was true, there would be no reason not to vote on it all together.
This happened under Biden. (Schumer then, too, I belive) Separated a bill, passed the parts the Republicans wanted, then the Republicans voted against the part the Democrat wanted.
Bend over, here it comes again.
I’m not sure I’d call that “unfortunate.” I’ve said for ages that if we can just get more people to vote, it will be good for the democrats. Work the rise of MAGA, I’ve included that if we can get them to think before they vote, that will be even better.
I’m perfectly happy to ignore everything between Enterprise and SNW, except for Lower Decks. (Is there an official TLA for that?)
They are helping, yes, but windows 11 is a driving force like I’ve never seen.
Do battlecruisers count?
Well, that’s customer satisfaction.
Tampons weigh nothing
When you’re dealing with the tyranny of rocketry, every gram matters.
That said, I agree with your point. The mass and volume was well within acceptable mission parameters.
Are there any Russian workplace comedy?
As a pure act, I can’t see that it causes any harm.
However, it will very likely lead to frustration, anger, and poor treatment of the person in question. Those things are bad.
Very nice.
How about those Epstein files?
Do your iPhones usually take oil?
What do you think plastic is made from?
Packaging, no. But manufacturing it into something else, yes.
Do you think a tariff on copper would apply to an iPhone? Or a tariff on oil?
Congratulations on getting what you voted for.
That’s generally how tariffs work. A tariff on grain is not a tariff on bread. A tariff on steel is not a tariff on knives. A tariff on cotton is not a tariff on clothing.
It can be, of course. A tariff can be on steel and items made with steel. But that’s not usually the case, and it’s usually called out as such. Of course, Trump is not what you’d call the most precise communicator in the world, but all we can do is work with what he says.
Right, but this tariff, at least as I understand it, is on chips imported as chips, not on products that contain chips. An iPhone will, of course, be subject to some other damn fool tariff, but not this specific one.
Of course, my understanding of this specific tariff may be wrong.
What he means is, if I buy an iPhone built in China, this tariff won’t affect the price I pay.
But if I buy a phone built in America, with an imported processer, this tariff will make that phone more expensive.
Sure they can write laws making it illegal to claim the king of Thailand is a doddering old fool anywhere in the world. Good for them.
They have no legal right to enforce it on me, though. If I visit their country, of course, I will be subject to their laws. But they can’t apply it to me until then.
They can write whatever they like, but in practical terms, they can only enforce their laws inside their borders.
No European law applies outside Europe. That’s kind of the nature of laws.
The majority of those problems go away if more people had their basic needs met.
