The problem is there could be a looot of time between now and that obituary for him to fuck up a lot of things.

Case and point Henry Kissinger.

Yup, you 100% need to work on reading comprehension. I never said nothing sketchy happened, actually I explicitly said other sketchy shit did and does happen, I’m saying the specific example you originally pulled did not support your argument.

The article you pulled, in the literal first sentences said that Hunter Biden was paid as a consultant by MBNA in 2005, 3 years prior to the article and that the consultancy, despite being legally above board, doesn’t look good and happened at the same time a bill favoring credit card companies was passed.

That’s not a direct bribe to Joe Biden in exchange for a favorable bill as you described it.

But instead I’m the shill for Biden because you have done a shit job defending your own point with an article that explicitly contradicts your point in the very first sentence. All I did was read the fucking article and point out it doesn’t say what you think it said.

Again be accurate in your criticism, back it up with anything that doesn’t immediately contradict your points because at this point, I highly doubt you even read a single article you posted in your last reply.

Good lord you need work on your reading comprehension, or did you just look at the headline and ignore the very first line of the article?

Hunter Biden was working and being paid as a consultant for MBNA and had no direct ties to any kind of lobbying. That’s just what consulting work is. How much was paid never gets disclosed, especially to the public.

Is there other shetchy shit? Sure, but direct bribery from MBNA isn’t one of them and now we’d have to veer off into a discussion of campaign finance and corporate contributions to politicians in a post-citizens United world.

Be accurate in your criticism or nobody will take you seriously.

MBNA didn’t even exist anymore in 2008. It was bought out and subsumed by Bank of America in 2006.

If you have information on that bill/law post it. I’m curious what it actually said.

The 4th of July falls on July 4th. I can assure you as someone who has lived in the US for my entire life, we say it out loud, month, day, year and we write it to match that.

It’s american/Canadian English. We say December 11th, 2024, we write it like we say it.

It is and makes an ok, but reproducible cup of tea. As per the relevant Tom Scott video mentioned in the article.

Glad to provide some honest perspective.

If you really need a specialized toolset to handle managing dates and times in a program beyond whats already there, then find a library that has the tools you’re looking for or make it yourself if it doesn’t exist. Extending the date class is always an option.

Looks like someone already did. Been around since at least JDK 1.1

I used to be a programmer myself (originally studied it for game design but now I’m a 3d animator) and it’s why there’s a specific default data structure built in to most programming languages to handle dates and internationalization of those dates.

It’s great for lists but I don’t know a single person who’s gonna say “hey let’s meet up on 2024 December 11th.”

The dates are written to match how it’s said. In the US we say our dates as month day year, and before you say “But the 4th of July” my counterpoint is that the 4th of July takes place on July 4th. And Cinco de Mayo takes place on May 5th. And May the Fourth Be With You takes place on May 4th.

I fail to see how getting fired because you said your work environment was stressful is a benefit. Losing your income is a significant stressor.

Wrong Nullification, Jury Nullification is when jurors say “not guilty” as the result of a trial despite evidence undoubtedly pointing to a crime as the law sees it.

Oh yeah the comments from all sides of the political spectrum are absolutely dragging him.

Honestly, I’d private window that link just to avoid it polluting your recommended page with right wing garbage.

I need to see where Shabibo is getting torn up by his audience.

Edit I found the Shabibo video, good lord he’s getting dragged and I am surprised the comments haven’t been turned off yet.
