It’s so terrible that people are led to believe that their death is worth so much. This poor man lost his life, literally the most precious gift given to you, because he believed that losing it in protest would maybe make a change.

But the sad reality of it, is that he’ll be forgotten and ignored like so many others. He could have made more impact by living.

My windows installs (Win 10 IoT Edition) just boot directly to desktop. Dunno what you’ve borked there.

You know they plan on retiring alito and thomas so that Trump can pick 2 nice young replacements for the supreme court right?

These shits are all over lemmy. It’s hilarious.

It’s a play on the joke “There are 3 genders, male, female, and political”

Religion, Politics, Political Genders, and…maybe Football. The real football.

Nah. Those games weren’t bad at all. Aren’t bad today either. Go play OG Ninja Gaiden, or Mario Kart, or Mario World, or hell BATTLETOADS. Or Metroid.

Or the original Zelda. God damn games were good. Even damn Tetris is good.

Unless you grew up on an Atari. Fuck those games were bad.

I know enough history to see where this is headed. I hope it won’t be an immediate firestorm, and I feel as if there are a lot of people in a lot of high up places that won’t just let Cheeto-man arbitrarily take control like he wants. So it won’t be an overnight thing. I already stockpile ammo, Republicans don’t have a monopoly on gun rights, thankfully. If I gotta skedaddle, I have both a place in Canada I can stay, and a place over in the UK temporarily. I’m, unfortunately surrounded by these imbiciles - but I keep my head down enough that most of them think I’m one too. Family already has their passports sorted.

Germany wasn’t an overnight thing either. It’ll start with rounding up political rivals and immigrants into camps. If that comes to pass, that’s my litmus test for getting the fuck out of dodge.

Yeah, I keep actually forgetting how fucking OLD that guy is…yeesh.

Yeah, the whole “Cult of Personality” thing is solidly in Trumps hands - because look at him: The guy never backs down off of a lie. He can’t. He won’t. No other republican has had the bravado to be that stupidly bold.

IF by some absolutely obscene miracle we manage to avoid him this election term - then I suspect he’ll be gone for good. Nobody is going to put a 2-term loser up for president for a 3rd time. ---- Though I’ve been wrong in the past.

That’s how Putin did it; probably the guy guiding all of this.

They have term limits over there in Russia as well, but they have interpreted it as “only allowed X years in a row”…so Putin installs a crony for 1 session every X years, and then magically wins the votes by a landslide every other time.

That’s what they’ll end up doing. They’ll ‘interpret’ it as consecutive terms, and we’ll get 8 years of Trump, then 4 of Vance, then 8 of Trump, etc.

Bonus: I believe they’ll be doing something wild with Vance as well - probably temporarily making him president, while he pardons Trump for any past crimes, and then giving the presidency back to Trump.

I believe the goal and intent is to get enough results into question that they kick it into Mike Johnson’s hands - and that mfer has almost no history at all. No bank account, nothing. He’ll do the thing, it’ll be contested, it’ll go to supreme court, where – surprise surprise, they’ll rule in favor of Donald J Trump and he will be elected our new Dictator. At which point he’ll be sworn in, because - Dems have never had any backbone - and then he’ll proceed to gut every institution which questions him, and turn this nation into an autocracy.

What people don’t realize yet, is that the election doesn’t matter unless Kamala wins by such a large margin that they can’t pull this off. They require the veil of uncertainty for this all to work. But since we’re on razor-thin margins, it’s going to happen anyways.

We’re already boned, and nobody realizes it yet. The playbook is out in the open and the media has stopped calling this out. They’re complicit in it, because they think the leopards won’t eat their face too. So they’re cozying up early.

I’ve always screwed them both in very lightly

An external audio recorder, and a double ended male jack.

Android has call recording locked down tighter than a nun’s chuff.

Symbolic of just how fucking ridiculous they are.

That’s kind of how things work you know.

AI is good (according to you) just because search engines suck.

Yeah, would you say the original iPhone is any good today? No. Because everything got better. That’s how things work. AI of today, in 20 years is probably going to be considered to suck.

That’s how that works. When things are better than other things, we consider them good.

Yeah. Money. Google has an incentive to make search results less accurate to get you to click around and interact with more ads. As it currently stands, AI models aren’t inserting advertisements; though I suspect that’s only a matter of time.

Welcome to … well, all of history? This isn’t news. There have been plenty of times and plenty of reasons throughout history where people have needed/wanted to lie about who they were voting for.

Fortunately, they have Same-day voter registration.
