You conveniently ignored my other point regarding how much of the electorate actually counts, but sure.

He got the popular vote in 2024. Not against Hillary in 2017. That’s my whole point, this whole situation would not even be happening if the presidential election system in the US wasn’t such a mess.

I mean, my parents and their generation can, for the most part. The rest of us… are probably not even making it to retirement lol 🥹

No, they didn’t? Like only 1/3 of the states actually “matter” during an election because of the electoral college, and they are all gerrymandered to shit thanks to Republican redistricting efforts and suppressed via ID laws going all the way back to Reagan, if not earlier.

Voters are a convenient scapegoat, but remember, Clinton won the popular vote in 2016. There shouldn’t even have been a first Trump term in an actual representative democracy, and opposition Dems barely moved the needle to safeguard any future elections from another term of this shit.

Yeah no joke, when No Child Left Behind was implemented by Bush 2, I remember both my parents discussing how it’s gonna lead to a dumber society within a decade or two, in a “Our nursing home is gonna be run by morons LOL” kind of way. I was waaaay too young to actually understand what they were talking about, but damn were they right.

Yeah, sometimes the pedants of Lemmy get a bit grating (I’m guilty of it myself). Most people were able to understand that OP was asking whether smaller or larger internet service providers are easier to use for piracy without detection. Most who didn’t get that context scrolled past.

That being said… OP’s replies are hilarious LMFAO wtf is that shit

Thank you! This was what I was hoping someone would suggest.

That’s just it, I don’t know. And the government is being deliberately vague instead of just saying what they are shipping to Israel, or sending auxiliary weapons that are still being used in direct combat.

I pulled that quote because I want to emphasize that it is not as transparent as your original comment is making it seem.

The exact nature of the goods remains unclear. The ministry’s response lists eight categories, including rockets, torpedoes, warships and naval equipment. But as the exports are not classified as weapons of war and the total value is relatively small, the shipments likely involve accessories or equipment.

I wouldn’t call sending rockets and warships as “no weapons” just because the government says they’re not.

What happened with Firefox?

I think OP meant use Safari with the Apple’s Privacy Relay thing that hides your IP and generalizes location data into a larger area, not just regular “private mode” that Safari has. Too bad it’s subscription only on iCloud+, and who knows if it actually works as well as Apple claims it does.

91 impactful years. I hope to leave quarter of a legacy that she does. Rest in power.

Bro…my weather app is selling my data? 😦

I just wanted up-to-date travel conditions in a convenient widget. My taxes already pay for the meteorology, why do they need to sell my data too??

Commenting pro-German sentiment with a .ml account is crazy work 💀

My EA internship at one of their Canadian offices was the best experience I’ve had in the gaming industry. I feel for my colleagues there, no doubt the work culture is about to get real toxic for them.

Yeah, this is true. I did a common food allergy test (dairy, eggs, shellfish, soy, peanuts and tree nuts) and nothing showed up on the tests so we moved on. That doesn’t mean it’s not some other food. But my family does have a history of metal sensitivity, and I FUCKING LOVE DARK CHOCOLATE so I feel like it’s a good lead after hitting dead ends for a year.

Thanks for the suggestion, though! I hope you get to enjoy some cheese with no rashes soon!

Bro, what the fuck are you even saying anymore.

The ketamine has fried these guys brains beyond belief.

You’re a doll, and I wish you a chocolate-filled future with no rashes 🥹

Literally going through eliminating sources of contact dermatitis right now, and I’m getting rashes where it makes no sense for contact dermatitis. Genuinely thank you so much, you may have saved me ANOTHER YEAR of frustration!

You might have just solved a year long mystery between me and my doctor…I’ve been getting random rashes all over my arms and torso, and we have yet to determine why. I love dark chocolate.

I see, thanks! Transformative work copyright is always confusing to me.
