  • The main difference between trump and every other president is that trump doesn’t know not to say the quiet part out loud. Most presidents are good at discretion, as most federal policies are monstrous.

    Trump lead stadiums full of people in chants of, “build that wall,” in contrast to obama and biden who quietly maintained the barriers on the southern boarder. Same policy different messaging.

    Gaza will be no different. Trump enthusiastically supports the genocide, whereas biden criticizes and puts on a show like he’s putting pressure on isreal, while still supporting them entirely. Same policy, different messaging.

    I would love to be proven wrong, but expierence says otherwise.







  • This airport is small. It is only serviced by one commercial flight to one other airport. There are systems that allow for precision landings during poor visibility without GPS, but they are expensive so airports of this size often don’t have them.

    Large airports use the Instrument Landing System, which are radio antennas built near the runway which broadcast radio beams along the approach path so the plane can land using their radios even in near zero visibility.

    GPS based approaches are often used in small airports because they are much cheaper to use than radio based systems. Airplanes can land visually if conditions are right, but if GPS is needed for the only instrument approach for this airport and the weather isn’t clear, they have to divert.




  • Voting is a popularity contest. Any unpopular opinion community that uses voting to drive the sorting will run into this issue. Genuinely unpopular opinions will be unpopular and thus downvoted, genuinely popular opinions will be downvoted from being clearly unsuited for the community. The opinions that get votes are the ones that many people agree with but think are unpopular. You won’t get unpopular opinions, only popular opinions that people think are a bit spicy.

    This is the cursed problem of unpopular opinion threads on lemmy or reddit. It is unsolvable.

    The fact that the moderators are moderating in a way that maintains the community as it is, is not the main problem as far as I see.
