Cindy Crawford looks looks incredibly manly. That's the weirdest one for me.

Probably the only reason Mexico hasn't already pulled it out is because they don't want to waste money that they know will never be reimbursed to them.

Maybe the US will take it down and bill Texas themselves.

Yeah, I agree. That phrase was the more memorable one for me for many years until I noticed the "tomorrow" phrase that precedes it. Both of them together in one verse makes it the strongest verse of any song I know of.

Sounds like Mexico can just take down most of this thing.

Edit: As a US citizen, I support Mexico's immigration services to detain any Texas construction workers that illegally cross the border to service this thing.

I also would support the governor of this region of Mexico to put these construction workers on a bus and drop them deep in the heart of Mexico somewhere.

I find one line particularly powerful, and it's been used in a couple famous songs.


Jenny Lou Carson (1944), made popular by Willie Nelson (1966)

I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one yesterday For what good is life without the one you love I'd trade all of my tomorrows, they're worthless anyway If my arms can't hold the one I am dreaming of

Just an empty world is all I have before me I'd give anything if you were with me now I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one yesterday I don't want to live without you anyhow


Kris Kristofferson Me and Bobby McGee (1969)

And I'd trade all of my tomorrows For one single yesterday Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin' left is all that Bobby left me.

 

I'm using Firefox more as my first choice, but I can't get away from Chrome completely because of work. I still consider my Chrome bookmarks the "master" and occasionally sync them to Firefox. I would like to be able to bookmark something while in Firefox and then have it available from my other devices using either browser. Is there a way to have my bookmarks stored in a common location, like Google Drive, and accessed from either browser? I tried Floccus with Google Drive as the location but I can't get it to work.

Is there an advantage to using kbin through its website? I'm accessing your kbin comment from a mobile Lemmy app. Could you do the same?

It's been less than three years since this crime.

Doesn't this quote from the article make it seem like Trump was making his own decision:

" ... claimed that Trump himself read a series of academic law review articles about the Electoral Count Act to brush up on the relevant law."

I was going to post this exact comment. My Pixel default launcher had a huge amount of wasted space at the top. I also use Nova.

In the US, a University is usually a collection of colleges. Each college has a somewhat independent structure from other colleges within the University, and each is led by its own Dean. Each college has different requirements of entry and provide rules for what it takes to get a degree from that college. But ultimately, you get a degree from something like "The University of Whatever, College of Engineering". All the colleges have some certain amount of oversight and guidelines set up by the overall institution.

The atmospheric pressure at the surface of Venus (the topic of the article) would be much worse than the bottom of any Earth ocean, so you better not let your floating Venus city accidentally succumb to gravity.

He literally is quoted as saying that after the Titan implosion. In the article:

"Söhnlein said the Titan passengers' deaths shouldn't stop humans from continuing to investigate carbon fiber hulled submersibles as a way to reach the bottom of the ocean."
