  • Dishwasher, like most appliances, are getting too smart.

    Many Bosch recommendations here, but beware that they are not above locking specific dishwasher features behind an app.

    I won't connect my dishwasher to your stupid cloud - Mar 24, 2025

    My honest advice is to go with the absolute simplest one you can find. I have a cheapo "Edgestar" washer from China that works without a hitch. It has 4 buttons. It has no wifi. It has a 3x 7-segment displays for communicating everything.

    Dishwashers have been around, and mostly unchanged, for something like 120 years. No amount of fancy silicone trays, wash modes, microcontrollers, wifi, alerts, error modes, etc... can convince me that modern companies have actually thought of anything new in this space.

    This turned into a rant.

    TLDR: a cheap one

  • Voting takes so little effort that there's no excuse not to.

    What if you have two kids under your watch and work won't let you take off?

    Voting in America is extremely difficult compared to other countries. Just saying "its so easy, just do it" overlooks the plethora of strategies the ruling class uses to disenfranchise voters.

    Also, this is all assuming ICE isn't patrolling every polling station come midterms. At that point, I dont think anyone could honestly say "voting is easy"

  • No, why would I be joking? What's the joke? Seriously, can we dive into this? What about my comment made you think I was trying to be funny?

    You're basing your opinion of a leftist org entirely on your personal internet experiences. Basing your opinion of an organization on internet experience vibes is not wise.

    Just look at their mission statement, it's even got anti-capitalist as part of their mission.

    If you think being anti capitalist is synonymous with being a tankie, then you've done a better job discrediting yourself than I ever could have.

    The SRA takes great pains to communicate the idea that they are a broad coalition of queen folks, people of color, anarchists, marxists, maoists, marxist-leninists, etc... united in the belief of anti capitalism. Their whole shtick is that any and all leftists can join united under the idea of learning about guns - regardless of individual philosophy. The fact that youre lobbing around the word "tankie" at zero hour of the fascist descent, in combination with equating "tankie" with anticapitalism, in combination with spewing FUD about one of the most successful and inclusive leftists gun rights orgs, makes it pretty clear that youre just one of the typical radlibs who aren't ready to commit to reckoning with the United States' burgeoning fascism.

  • Do tell how the SRA is "tankie".

  • Racism and ableism are never okay. Period.

    Pretty sus that you're arguing in favor of white people being able to say the N word. You're probably a racist.

  • Yeah I should've mentioned my last 2 are single player. We took turns after each death and it was super enjoyable. Using the controller and navigating is only half the battle with those two games. The other half is just brainstorming and planning a solution to the puzzle.

  • ... because all insulting stereotypes are unfair.

    Wrong. The correct answer was "because dropping N bombs is racist"

    • Dunking on vulnerable drug addicts / thinly-veiled racism

      "silly stereotype"

    • saying cracker

      "Hey, stop throwing around slurs!"

    Ah, so youre just one of those "reverse racism" types. If you seriously get all flustered about "slurs" when the word "cracker" comes up, I think we all know what side you're on.

  • Why wouldnt that be fair?

  • Do you think it would be fair for some Greenland crackers to start calling Americans N bombs?

  • Dunking on drug addicts: le epic own.

  • I’m sorry, the files will come out, there will be an uprising and he will be removed. And that will only be the start. You can screenshot your comment to show to your grandkids.

    how's that working out for you?

  • And if you've reached a point in your political experiment where the only viable "opposition" party is obligated to massively fund fascist brownshirts in order to stay relevant, your experiment has lost legitimacy and must be dismantled.

    Keep in mind, these democrat moves to bolster ICE were happening while the right was blatantly telegraphing their moves to immediately weaponize ICE once they took power. Project 2025 came out and promised to use ICE to plunder and abuse Americans. Biden and team then spent the next 4 years not only failing to prepare for Trump, but preemptively strengthening the mechanisms Trump would eventually use to carry out project 2025. The democrats are controlled opposition.

    Sure, maybe we wouldnt be seeing this intense of immigration enforcement if Kamala were in charge, but if she were, she'd be working behind the scenes to ensure the right had all the tools they needed when the time was right.

    The democrats are controlled opposition and the American electoral system is kabuki theater. The fascist descent is the only logical conclusion to the American political experiment- which was predicated on the wholesale genocide of Native American Indians and quickly pivoted to enslaving an entire continent.

    You realize what the only logical conclusion to your "pragmatic liberal utilitarianism" is, right? I give it 4 years before youre chiding leftists for not voting for dem candidate Ted Cruz as he campaigns against republican candidate Mecha Hitler. Youll still see nothing wrong with that. You will sell out the victims of American Imperialism to buy yourself 4 more years of political waffling - just as you did with Palestinians.

  • Thinking that ICE's collapse is a forgone conclusion seems dangerous given how quickly they're filling their ranks, and because of how much they are improving their strategies in the Minnesota demo. We should all be on the same page and understand that ICE's power will flourish and their strategies will be refined in coming months. It's time to prepare for a future in which ICE is successful, not cling to the hope that ICE is somehow doomed to fail.

  • Ad Ignorantiam fallacy states otherwise.

    What does this even mean?

  • Proven fake? Definitely not.

    Thats not how the burden of proof works. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
