  • Disclaimer: I'm not American so will never understand your culture towards politics as well.

    I don't think it's fair to point at every bad thing Trump has done so far and say that's the fault of your MIL for voting for Trump. The way I see it as a non-American, Trump did say he was going to be a racist xenophobic piece of shit on his election campaign, but the media heavily downplayed this, and Trump still tricked and lied to everyone. Politics is weird like that: you can theoretically campaign on one thing but then throw everything out and do the opposite once you get elected.

    Hating Kamala and Biden is a fair opinion to hold as well. I consider a vote for them as picking the lesser of the 2 evils, rather than voting on what's best for America, because both parties seemed awful to me (a non-American).

    I think it's important that you try to at least understand and empathise with why your MIL voted Trump in the first place. You were very light on those details in your post, which I suspect is because you're very quick to judge someone based on who they vote for.

    Maybe she really hated one policy from the democrats so voted for Trump? Maybe she bought all the lies Trump told during his campaign and regrets her vote strongly? Maybe she's a single-issue person who voted for Trump because of one policy and ignored everything else?

  • Waiting for blurays to just come with an activation code like a lot of PC game copies do already

  • 10B could make a couple underground metro lines in an otherwise extremely car dependent city with no public transport

  • Many modern cars will stop working and there will be a huge demand for cars from the 90s, due to the anti-theft authentication in the key not working.

    In America, not being able to drive is basically a death sentence. Especially for the few people living rurally with no fixed internet or phone line to be able to call for help.

  • The way we socialise has changed to the point where it's normal to talk to people over text chat. This leaves a footprint that talking face to face with someone does not.

    In addition to other privacy concerns, I don't want things I say that I would've gotten away with had I spoken it to my friends in real life, to come back and haunt me, either by a platform having a massive data breach, or it being used as evidence in a legal case against me.

    On that last point, I'm not using chat services to organise crime, but taken out of context, any message I send can paint a picture that I'm an awful person and change some jury's opinion of me. This isn't something I want to think about before sharing a dank meme to a friend on discord.

  • Every panel is flawed

    People don't walk that closely together

    People don't bike that closely together

    Only a double decker bus could fit that many people without cramming people in like sardines

    Moving cars should obey a safe following distance, so unless traffic is gridlocked, they shouldn't be that close either

  • And also not born in the United States

  • That actively works against the cause because it would do so much harm to the local ecosystems

  • What goes on in an agitation washing machine that affects how shoes clean?

  • A pirated copy of acrobat

  • Looking at you, Adobe

  • Or leave it in the office, always on charge, and with no lock screen so anyone can take the phone and accept a request

  • 8.1 as well

  • Time for some user agent spoofing

  • Lemmy Shitpost @lemmy.world

    Sorry everyone, you'll have to go elsewhere now
