Why bother about politics when everything is just a theater. People thinking that voting changes anything still amazes me.

Dont treat politics seriously. It will come one way or another to you in some shape or form. Focus on things which you really can improve/change/work on.

Inside Job is a 2010 American documentary film, directed by Charles Ferguson, about the late 2000s financial crisis.

The global financial meltdown that took place in Fall of 2008 caused millions of job and home losses and plunged the United States into a deep economic recession.

This documentary provides a detailed examination of the elements that led to the collapse and identifies key financial and political players.

Director Charles Ferguson conducts a wide range of interviews and traces the story from the United States to China to Iceland to several other global financial hot spots.

Ferguson, who began researching in 2008, says the film is about "the systemic corruption of the United States by the financial services industry and the consequences of that systemic corruption". In five parts, the film explores how changes in the policy, environment and banking practices helped create the financial crisis.

Convert science pdf into brainrot video with minecraft parkour in the background.

 

I have Samsung UE40J5200AW and it has that screen mirroring feature. Whenever I try to use to cast from Windows 11 to this TV, the stream stops after few mins of playing.

I have no idea if Samsung doesnt allow to play full screen videos from casting devices or not. I have tried to connect both PC and TV via Ethernet and see if it will help, but its happening all the time.

Whats interesting it also happens when I cast via my lineage os phone and I checked it on different TV and had the same issue.

Whats your ways to cast videos from PC/laptop to TV?

His "thread" has been featured or popped up to people who doesnt share interests though.

For Mastodon I recommend to follow interesting accounts, set own language, check instances from nearby location.

 

Ben Werdmuller, a tech leader at ProPublica, discusses the trust crisis in Meta's Threads app after his comment about the Internet Archive's legal issues unexpectedly attracted a hostile audience. He was surprised by accusations of engagement farming, prompting him to question the assumptions behind such claims. Werdmuller discovered that Meta has been paying certain creators up to $5,000 for viral posts, leading to a climate where all content is viewed with suspicion.

While she treats her dog like her "daughter" and showers it with attention, it seems that the same level of care is not extended to the cat. As someone who has never owned a cat, I believe that providing a cat tree to prevent the cat from damaging furniture, along with some toys and daily access to fresh water, would significantly improve the cat's quality of life. Additionally, since the cat enjoys exploring the forest, having a safe space to play and roam is essential.

Today, with temperatures soaring to 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit), she told the cat, "You won’t have wet food; we have to limit it because supplies run out too quickly." At the same time, she did not provide any water. When I inquired about this, she mentioned that the cat could drink from the dog's bowl if it wanted. I expressed my concern that sharing a water bowl could expose the cat to different bacteria and microflora, but this upset her. When I pointed out that not providing water could be considered a form of neglect, she responded that she didn’t want to hear it in her house.

On another occasion, she became frustrated when the cat refused to eat the wet food she offered. In response, she told the cat, as if it could understand, "Now you won’t have any wet food; the bowl will be empty. You have dry food, so eat that." She even instructed us not to give the cat any wet food as a form of punishment.

I am currently confined to the house for the next month due to an injury, and she is my stepmother. Her decision to adopt a cat seems to stem from a desire to alleviate her dog’s loneliness, which is understandable. However, I question whether simply providing food and allowing the cat to explore the forest for a couple of hours is sufficient for its well-being.
