First of all, I didn't say she was a piece of shit, I said she was an evil piece of shit. The evil part is very important. With that out of the way:

  1. She campaigned on the "no rich government with poor people" slogan and used it as justification to launch an "austerity plan" that cut funding to government programs, social welfare and infrastructure development while her appointed Secretary of Communications hired her own dad for a 12,000,000 MXN New Year's show.
  2. Remember the austerity plan? She keeps around a makeup artist that charges 100,000 MXN a month while 60% of the country has to survive on less than 13,000 MXN.
  3. She proudly claims to have made the country safer because the number of homicides went down while willfully ignoring that the number of missing persons has been the highest it's ever been for 2 years in a row.
  4. Sinaloa is currently in the middle of a war between two of the biggest cartels in the country. When asked how is she gonna deal with this, she replied "Guanajuato is worse". Guanajuato is one of the few states that her party doesn't control so this was definitely a calculated statement.
  5. When actually forced to make a statement about what the hell is she gonna do to protect the people of Sinaloa, she said "we're working on it but violence is not the answer so we won't send the army".
  6. A month before she took office, the National Guard investigated a ranch suspected to have ties with the cartels and supposedly found nothing. Six months later, a civil collective made up of the families of cartel victims entered the ranch and found a literal extermination camp. She maintains nobody died in there.
  7. During her time as governor of Mexico City, one of the metro lines collapsed killing 23 people. She was quick to blame the previous governor and hired independent Norwegian contractor Det Norske Veritas (DNV) to carry out a forensic analysis to clean her name. They concluded that the line collapsed due to a lack of maintenance, so she promptly claimed DNV was colluding with her political opposition to undermine her government and threatened to sue if they released the results of the analysis.
  8. Wonder what happened to that previous governor she tried to blame for the collapse of the metro line? She appointed him as Secretary of Economy.
  9. While serving as "Jefa de Delegación" (sort of like a mayor) of Tlalpan, an elementary school collapsed during an earthquake killing 19 children. She claims to not have been aware of the irregularities in the construction but when the families of the victims tried to get a copy of the city records for the structural safety of the school, she provided a file that ended right before she was elected mayor and then proceeded to declare everything else as "classified".

Also true. Even truer, in fact. Still validates classic Dr. Who having trash production design.

I'd like to point out that we're in this mess because the US doesn't do enough to stop gun companies arming the cartels. No matter how Fox News and The Washington Post spin it, gun companies are horrible organizations that commit horrible crimes.

Disclaimer: this response is solely to point out that that ZK686 is a bumbling shortsighted idiot and in no way represents an endorsement of Claudia Sheinbaum who is an evil piece of shit.

I've heard of PhDs struggling to find employment outside of academia because they're "overqualified" (which is HR-speak for "we offer shit pay") but surely it can't be that bad... right? Right?!

I recently bought one that does ~40km on a single charge and doesn't go above 25km/h and honestly I don't get why anyone would need more (people living in the hellscape distopya commonly referred to as "the US" need not reply).

I mean, space also looks like this:

1000025306

Point being: the statement "space looks like X" doesn't make any sense because space looks like literally everything.

I mean, I wouldn't call it fair. They said some really nasty things but I think for it to be fair, we would have to get a guillotine involved.

Yep. That's what I'm saying, Linux isn't ready.

BTW, on my system /boot is ext4, /boot/efi is FAT32 and the rest mounted at /sysroot is BTRFS.

Your installation is probably quite old. It used to be like that but now the default is mounting the ESP to /boot. The old way makes way more sense to me, btw.

[–] stevedice@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

The /boot partition is FAT32 due to RedHat's stupidity but that's neither here nor there. The point is that regular users don't know how to boot into a previous version of the OS. Yes, I know you just have to select it on GRUB but a black screen with a list of kernels qualifies as broken for regular people.

What you stated was a lie. I don't know what to tell you 🤷🏻

Until everything breaks because the average user held down the power button mid-update because the computer wouldn't shut down.
