Yeah sure, all those Brazilian and Ugandan 65 year olds that are emigrating to the US for the Medicare. It's not like you need critically need nurses or tax generating young people in general.
Sure, if they’re actually critically needed they will win in the auction. 10x H1B and green cards like I said will provide a lot of access. Ideally we use a points based system that rewards youth but there’s only so much skill in US policy making.
I don't know, FIFA is a den of villainy, but what happens if I dunno... half the Brazilian team ends up on an ICE camp? It wouldn't be during airport customs, but what if Agent Cletus sees the team bus and thinks that he can get a nice bonus.
FIFA will ignore unlimited human suffering but if matches don't happen it might be a problem.
Because to a certain group of HN regulars everything that gives them a tingle in the conscience is "offtopic" and "politics". Another quieter group believe themselves to be the rational Übermensch and cannot wait for the vagrants and the spooky pinky haired leftists to be put on camps.
Trump is not long for this world, MAGA might crumble or more probably fall under the control of one of the possible successors in the WH. Establishing diplomatic ties with his wranglers pre heart attack is smart.
As for how this is seen internally for Danes, at least in my part of the world the US admin has already achieved crackhead with a knife status. I suspect that trying the dog whisperer shtick (like Mamdani) will not be seen negatively.
More datapoints in USD (Chile) from checking various companies:
150GB-200GB ~15 USD
400GB-450GB ~19-20 USD
Unlimited (without throttling) ~21-27 USD
This is the price after the new client ~20% discount expires (generally 6 months). The unlimited and higher tier usually include stuff like Amazon Prime Videos subscriptions, local IPTV or roaming gigs. All plans obviously include calls and texting.
Is it? It was (as far we know) a mild shitpost of a public figure like from a decade ago. Photoshopping someones head over the Pepe Silva meme is not nice, but its hardly harassment. To me the "worst" thing was registering the domain, which he gave to Torrone and apologized quite well in my opinion https://gist.github.com/NPoole/d9aab9dfa2a18f4141039f7ce3505....
Sure, if this was a pattern of behavior it would be ridiculous to play the victim, but there isn't as far we know. 9 years later, Torrone starts Mullenweg-posting because some random criticized him for AI stuff. He posts their private email taken from a receipt and when blocked he continues with sock-puppets. Sparkfun guy gives a (quite measured) opinion colored by the fact that Torrone is still is doing this shit to random people. Torreone acusses the Sparkfun guy of being his personal Moriarty.
The most unhinged (and cowardly) thing to me is bringing up his partner and his newborn at every turn in his Twitter shitflinging, when any "slights" just seem only directed at him.

While Reddit always has someone celebrating / inciting everything from the benign to the macabre, this is just cope.
Kirk was in a process of sanctification by the right as a knight for debate and reason, as if he wasn't gleeful about Paul Pelosi almost being pulped to death with a hammer. People not dropping everything to make him MLK is not celebrating his murder. As for Brian Thompson, he was the modern equivalent of a British tax man in the Irish Famine, people being indifferent to his death is expected. If Mangione was more palatable in his politics to MAGA (instead of just being a RFK fan) and Thompson had photos with Pelosi or something, he would've been a perfect Trump pardon candidate.
As far my recollection goes Voat was actually pretty nice content wise until /r/fatpeoplehate got banned. After that it became the dumping ground for every shithole community that was too awful for Reddit, quite an achievement TBH. It was inevitable with 20/20 hindsight, but I would've loved if it had had more breathing room to actually develop as healthier alternative.
Even if it failed the same way it could've influenced the redesign to implement RES-style QoL changes instead of the clusterfuck that New Reddit still is.
Beyond the other replies to your 'point', fent has nothing to do with Venezuela⁰. It's pretty obvious if you think about it for 5 seconds, it's a dense synthetic opioid. Is there incredible chemistry knowhow in the quite far off Venezuela? No. It makes as much sense as making meth on the Peruvian jungle.
The precursors are made in legal-ish Chinese and Indian labs and shipped to the US and Mexico (y'know close where the users are). It's finished state-side or in Mexico where the DEA has less power. In fact one of the routes is:
China Lab -> Conventional Post -> Porch of a clueless gringo with a new 'online job'-> Smuggled to Mexico -> Mexican Lab -> Smuggled to the USA -> Distribution
