@athairmor@lemmy.world is right; presidents cannot pardon state level crimes: https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artII-S2-C1-3-1/ALDE_00013316/
Specifically, the offense must be “against the United States”, and state level offenses are only against the respective state, not the United States.
My first thought is that this entire article reads like a camouflaged press release from Meta.
The source for the article seems to be an anonymous, internal leak, but those “leaks” are often from the company itself as a way to send a message while maintaining plausible deniability.
My second thought is that they are grouping together wildly different types of infractions without saying how many people were guilty of each one. It’s possible that one person was committing outright fraud while everyone else was just accused of a minor technicality.
Finally, the accusation of “pooling” funds seems like a big tell. That’s what you should want the employees to do to save the company money. Without specific details about why that was wrong this sounds more like a gotcha than a legitimate reason to fire someone.
All of these together make this article seem like a way of scaring employees into resigning so they can cut the workforce without being subject to WARN act requirements.
You’re right that they don’t mesh with Judaism.
They also don’t mesh with Christianity.
The religion aspect of it is completely hollow; just a front used to mask being a hate group.
Joe Biden ‘discussing’ possible Israeli strikes on Iran oil facilities
Casually discussing committing war crimes... civilian energy infrastructure is not a valid military target.
Why are you pretending that is some sort of gotcha?
Diplomats communicating with their nation’s allies does not make them legitimate military targets.
Try bending at the first finger joints instead of at the knuckles.
I don’t bother to fold my fingers all the way when I do it. All you need is a binary on/off, so just bending any discernible amount is sufficient.
No, they wouldn’t.
They would exist outside of our universe (since they created the universe), so the rules of physics in our universe don’t apply to them.
Even if the reality they existed in had something equivalent to atoms, it would be inaccurate to call those “atoms” since they are in different realities.
Exactly this. The whole “viruses evolve to be less deadly/severe” trope is just wishful thinking masquerading as science.
Evolution isn’t some sort of get-of-pandemic-free card, no matter how much we all wish it was.
There’s lots of counter examples of viruses that are still as deadly as ever, but I’d go beyond that; I’ve never seen anyone give a concrete example of a virus that actually did evolve to be less deadly.
The closest anyone has come to that is the 1918 flu pandemic, but there’s no evidence that it’s less deadly now due to evolution. It’s more like that it is simply less deadly because there isn’t as much widespread malnutrition as there was in 1918.
Use one hand to scoop and use the fingers on your other hand to count to ten. Then you don’t have to remember.
