1·5 months ago1080p is good enough for me, and 60fps is better than 30 (or teens).

World News@lemmy.world•Israel just quintupled its PR budget to $730 million; experts say it won’t workEnglish
11·5 months agoEvery time an election comes up though, everyone is like “we need to vote for the democrats because third party/not voting is ‘a vote for the republicans’” and sadly I have to admit due to how first past the post elections work they do have a point. So any individual voting for anything other than a democrat (or not voting) makes it less likely the democrats win and more likely republicans win, and they’re by far the worse option (and still pro Israel).
Maybe Israel’s propaganda is to dissuade people from voting for anti-Israel politicians in the primaries and the like, rather than directly make them look good.

World News@lemmy.world•Israel just quintupled its PR budget to $730 million; experts say it won’t workEnglish
13·5 months agoIs this budget for convincing the general public to support them, or convincing US politicians? Because if it’s the former I don’t see it working or anyone believing the lies. Bloomberg tried something similar to get into the democratic primary and I’m pretty sure he failed spectacularly.
But I’d bet it’s the latter, and I let buying US politicians will continue to be successful. Because if both republicans and democrats support Israel, even if the public hates them who else is there to vote for?

Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable - DexertoEnglish
4·7 months agoIsn’t that what Nebula/CuriosityStream is? All my favorite YouTubers promote it, though the caveat is you have to pay but I think the money actually goes to the creators (and they put bonus content on it like a patreon).

politics @lemmy.world•The question Joe Biden keeps asking: ‘You think we can actually come back from this?’English
8·8 months agoPeople abroad trusting America perhaps? America seems like it’s really destroyed its reputation lately. Or could be referring to the decay of rule of law with ICE and the like, will the public ever trust the government again?

politics @lemmy.world•House Speaker welcomes Trump call to ‘take over’ elections, claims Dem wins appear ‘fraudulent’English
28·9 months agoBut it will end in 2029 since Trump isn’t allowed to have a third term, so someone else will have to run and based off the flip flopping, the winner will probably be a democrat.

Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 10's extended support ends in eight months, but users are still rejecting Windows 11, at least in GermanyEnglish
3·9 months agoWell Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 has weird distorted music. Apparently it’s due to .wma files and possible to convert them to MP3 (or use some weird fan patch of Proton) but that sounds like a lot of effort for something I was hoping would just work out of the box.

Technology@lemmy.world•Digg launches its new Reddit rival to the publicEnglish
11·9 months agoI hate the idea of “blocking” a user or community, to me I hear “block” and imagine a user who harasses me or posts actual spam, whereas someone who comments politics a lot might also comment non-political stuff I’d like to see, or if an event is big enough I could see cross posts in more niche communities. I wish there was a “show me less of this on the front page” option.

I thought we were supposed to encourage everyone to vote though
