An upgrade is that you don’t learn anything?

Delayed response, but I was pleasantly surprised by your pragmatism. The vibe I got from your previous posts was very different. Many on Lemmy could not demonstrate the same level of pragmatism when it really counts and sometimes it’s easy to conclude that here.

I will say, anyone that believes the Democratic party is supposed to represent the working class is probably being a little naive in that instance. It’s been captured by corporate interests for a long time. It’s just less shit version of corporate interests. I’m not even from the US, but I’d still vote for them if I was. Of course, primaries are a good way to apply pressure.

Things could have been very different on many things if Bernie won.

Swearing won’t make your argument stronger. It’s just rude.

My comment wasn’t in relation to child marriages. That is wrong and illegal in most countries. The debate is because an American doesn’t really understand the context in other countries.

Here in the UK, age of consent is 16. Most have already been at stuff at 14, 15 etc. All raising age does is punish 17 year olds getting busy. A 16 and 17 year old had sex in Dubai, both from the UK where it is legal. He got locked up when her mum reported it. It’ll just create criminal records for young folk and you know it’ll not be enforced with white youths. Just another way to swell the prison population.

US are weirdly prudish when it comes to sex yet award ceremonies and the young are watching the celebs walk in in see through clothes. Truly baffling to outside observers.

In the UK and many other developed countries also. Seems quite standard. America likes to infantise the youth so it’ll be 25 before long.

Thanks for the detailed response.

Source?

You’ve side stepped my key points, so I’ll ask them directly.

Do you prefer Trump or the Dems?

Do you see any realistic alternative to the Dems and Trump?

By all means, send Biden to the ICC later, but the current situation cannot continue. No aid is getting in. This is about as bad as it gets. There are millions of Gazans at risk right now. Are you happy with this situation right now?

When Israel went too hard on siege he did try to step in. Not enough, but the attempted but failed aid pier was far more than Trump has done or would do.

Also, he pressured and got a crossing reopened “Within hours of Mr Biden’s call, Israel said it would open the Erez crossing in northern Gaza and the port of Ashdod in southern Israel to aid, and pledged to drastically improve security co-ordination with groups delivering assistance to Palestinians.”

As I made clear, I’m not defending Biden or claiming he’s good. Thousands have died and I fear if the situation doesn’t change soon, I fear it could be a magnitude of 10 higher. Trump is showing zero signs of any pressure. If anything, he cheers Israel on. It absolutely disturbs me, that through resentment of Biden folks would rather see Trump stay in and have hundreds of thousands of more Gazans die through starvation.

I will say, those that keep propping Trump up are complicit in this. If starvation is happening and you don’t want change, you want this situation.

Well this is 5 people. You cannot really compare these 5 with AOC for example.

The only way Trump goes is through Democrats right now. It’s unfortunate, but unfortunately a fact.

I’m not defending Dems or think they are good, but it is the only realistic play right now.

Maybe, but when they went too hard, he applied pressure. Trump offered to take over and help in the genocide (Middle East Riviera plan).

Democrats are not good, but unfortunately, those idiots are temporarily needed to dump out the fascists.

Politics in FPTP is a bit like a bus, and if you cannot get a bus where you need to go, get one in roughly the right direction.

The amount of “Genocide Joe” Lemmyers who helped cement genocide Trump are complicit in what is effectively a mass starvation. At least Biden tried to step in with supplies when Israel stopped last time.

Dear lord. Why are Dems getting involved in pushing fascism?

Enshitification by owners of Audacity including telemetry. They eventually backed down, but that was after Tenacity forked off it and people started using and improving it.

He used the words “written by software”. This is ambiguous and doesn’t mean AI, for example, using annotations for variables and generating the getters and setters would count. Right click and create function body for interface function definitions also.

They’re exaggerating to pretend their AI is more useful than it is.

Bully XLs killed loads of folk in the UK, often unprovoked. It got to the point where the breed got banned. While ownership plays a part, they were disproportionately represented in fatal incidents.

The amount of owners who were shock because their dog was a kind spirit that wouldn’t hurt a sole, then one day snapped and kid was dead.

Asks for sources. When gets source, comes up with any excuse including government figures as to why they’re wrong.

You don’t want source, you just don’t to believe it because you always had that believe that all dogs are good, they just got bad owners. Maybe you’re partly right, owners and training plays a big part, but even with that, these dogs are overwhelming involved in incidents and fatal incidents in the UK despite there being horrible dog owners of every breed.

The allowing these dog breeds was a compromise to try and get the legislation through, but most know these dogs are bred for fighting, and are so strong, they are lethal. Even families who cared for the dogs and loved them well, and one accident, and a child is dead. Ooops. Some dog breeds just ain’t safe.

AMD or NVidia?

Most games that I play work well on Linux with AMD. Most who have problems seem to have Nvidia. Anti-cheat stuff can be an exception though so best to ensure what you enjoy works.

If you can check hardware compatibility before hand, it helps. An up to date kernel like Fedora, OpenSuse TW or Arch can help. Wine recommends up to date kernel.

Most of those issues I do not have. By waking from suspend, do you mean hibernate? A system d update broke that last year in OpenSuse and I’m assuming other distros. I sleep now and it wakes fine.

Great suggestion. Great game. Very chill.
