They probably do have a “superior product” it’s just that the superiority comes from yield per acre. Not taste. Agricultural products are a massive industry in the US and bioengineering crops for higher drought tolerance and increased yield is the priority right now. The drawback to more soybean or corn or wheat per m² is nutritional density in the actual harvested product.

What I will say is that I’ve noticed a trend toward more sustainable farming practices even in the midwest where yield is your family’s livelihood. More farmers are beginning to turn to no-till planting practices, pasture rotation, ground cover planting, etc. It’s slow, but they’re getting coerced by messaging from governmental bodies and research bodies in Illinois like the Department of Natural Resources, Dept. of Agriculture, University of Illinois, etc.

There’s some solace in dying in a prison camp next to men and women and children that also hate fascists.

Format, no, but sometimes the release group. I’ve filtered some of them out but there’s times when they’re the only option for high quality content. So I was hoping to solve the issue another way.

Excellent insight on the after release setting, that would explain why they’re getting downloaded prior to the air date. I always assumed that’s what that meant.

Is this the very same limewire as the one that sourced all of the public domain mp3s on my burned cds?

I hate Illinois Nazis

Its unfortunately an effective strategy to hide their crimes. They speak vocally about harsh treatment of the people that do their type of harm and slowly escalate with their victims.

People see them being real close friends with a member of their church, then dismiss it because they know their public opinion on predators. After a while they start seeing their victims outside of church or whatever it happens to be. Other parents think it’s weird but dismiss it again because of the predators’ outspoken opinions and it’s not too much further than their interactions with the victim in church. They’re boiling the frog. The last step is getting so close with the victim that the victim begins to see them as one of their closest friends and helps bring others into the abuse either through photos or physically.

Those finds are typically found in deeper water where they’re protected from oxygen and sunlight.

The first time we were introduced to them was in Rome where they’re a bit different. It’s called supplì there and they have tomato sauce as well. So good!

Okay, I agree, but what is the time off policy for Jacobin?

Portugal. The Man was onto something.

Ever tried convincing someone that roots for Manchester United to instead root for Liverpool?

Do French-Canadian polar bears live in Ontario or do French-Canadian language adaptations travel further north than I’m aware of? Thanks in advance.

Arc GPUs are worth buying at the moment to avoid a duopoly of Nvidia and AMD. AV1 support at a reasonable price can be a big deal for media preservation. At least on the CPU side there’s competition from Apple, AMD, and other mobile processors that could theoretically enter the desktop market. Server CPUs are unfortunately looking bleak.

I’m not optimistic that the people will change necessarily. They’ll still jump over each other to be the first to berate someone for being LGBT+ and have them thrown in a jail cell for subjecting their youth to sinful lifestyles.

I have slightly more than zero optimism that they’ll change their vote though. If the rep and Trump continue to piss them off over the next couple of elections, I could see a good majority of them voting independent or for a republican challenger and splitting the vote. These people care about 2 things more than any political issue and if you start fucking with them, you’re out. They are God and money. Hopefully some have started to realize Trump is incompatible with Christianity, but I know some have seen his grift and how it costs them money.

I think you underestimate how strong the interpersonal ties of the rural Midwest are. He got 71% sure, but this is significant. In deep red Missouri people are getting fed up and speaking ill of Trump. That’s notable. On an individual scale maybe not, but this is the sort of thing that can pick up a lot of steam very fast.

It should have been long ago that they turned on their republican representation, but I’ll never discourage positive behavior.

They found a way to get landline fiberoptic to work.

Yeah, anti-semites do still exist. There’s nothing inherently wrong with telling jewish Americans that they’ll be protected from violent people. If he were to have said that he was going to support jewish leadership in Israel, that’s a different thing entirely.

This person is greatly exaggerating. I bought a house in central Illinois with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms for $130k

Also, just having a million dollars is a big step up

My feed is the same, but the posts are flip flipped lol

This is the first time I’ve laughed at something related to our political situation in a long time. Good job on this thread guys. I appreciate it
