Strangely enough there aren’t that many movies that feature jets dogfighting though. That kind of makes it worth watching because I love Ace Combat and that’s the closest thing I’ll probably ever have to a feature film.

I’m in one of the higher tax brackets so aside from unemployment insurance, a lot of safety nets that require means testing are essentially inaccessible to me as well. Frankly it’s a miracle American society is still functioning even with so many tax cuts for corporations and the rich.
Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever cared how much tax you pay?English11·4 days agoI pay roughly 30% of my gross income in th US. The only tangible benefit I get from it is the ability to drive on free roads on my way to work to earn more taxable income. I only wish my money didn’t go to subsidize the rich and make bombs to blow kids up on the other side of the planet.

They have a good reason to expect they’ll get arrested for obstruction of justice or something.

Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews.English404·7 days agoGood. I never trusted those integrated apps and thought of them as spyware. Mozilla should go back to focusing on making a lean browser and whatever apps they want to offer should be optional instead of hard coded into their flagship product.

Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.comto World News@lemmy.world•Nissan slashes 15% of its global work force as Japan automaker sinks into losses (20000 people)English8·16 days agoI’m still driving a 2010 Versa equipped with one of their last automatic transmissions and it’s going strong. They used to have great affordably priced cars up until they introduced their horrendous CVTs. I’ve never been so disappointed with their offerings until test driving an Altima equipped with one. If you’re not consistent with maintenance on the thing it’ll end up costing you thousands of dollars to replace later. Add on the case that they made their vehicles the worst rated car for privacy by Mozilla (which is really saying something) and now you have a company that became very irrelevant in the 2010s onward.
It’s sad a car company with such a great legacy might end up going away, but they brought this upon themselves by cutting corners in production costs, raising their prices beyond what’s reasonable, and selling out their customer’s privacy for an easy buck.
Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The road they drove to dump this trash literally takes to the landfillEnglish7·17 days agoWouldn’t law enforcement be able to find a couple of receipts or something that could indicate who it was that threw all this away? It’d be so satisfying to issue a massive fine to the assholes who did this.

Do you get a black screen when playing games after waking the PC up? I have a similar setup with a 5600g and RTX3080 and heard it was an Nvidia driver issue.

Best we can hope for now is a car that’s so simply designed, you can actually dig around its internals to easily remove their SIM cards. The most promising example that’ll come to the market soon is the Slate Truck.
Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.comto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration restarts student loan collections for millions in default after years-long pauseEnglish14·24 days agoWage garnishing is a very useful tool for a government captured by cruel interests. Since it’s been decided student loan debt can never be forgiven, this is the only way to collect on that during the loaner’s lifetime. Basic food and housing be damned.
