X to doubt, but positive hope is better than no hope.

That’s a great help, thank you!!

Extremely smart idea that I will be doing. Thank you!

This is awesome, thank you so much!

Extremely helpful, thank you so much! It seems what I might be looking for is more along the lines of using the panels as a compliment to lower my bill overall, at least, from what I understand.

The thing that really gives me anxiety is thta no one has been talking about reinstating Chevron deference…

I’VE GOT A BIG BAG OF CRABS~

That sounds fucking awesome

I hate all of you for this thread lol.

Firefox with ublock origin for both desktop and mobile.

Those two programs alone block out like 75% of the annoyances and dangers of the modern internet. Near-complete removal of ads and a couple nice healthy adware and malware guards on top of that.

Add on a VPN and a few more Firefox extensions and I feel that I can browse the net anxiety-free.

Really helpful!! Thank you so much!! :)

Thank you so much!!

The EXACT same thing has been happening with me and google captchas. I just switched to Proton VPn, and while I like it, the amount of capctchas I’ve had to poke through is ridiculous.

This is extremely helpful, thank you!

Is there anything you’d recommend as a migration tutorial from someone who’s used windows their whole life?

Does Lemmy have a Rimjob Steve yet? Lmao

That’s a really good point. Perhaps I am thinking too defensively. If someone as progressively strong as her does run, it will give them the excuse to ramp up their attacks on her, but also ramp up our attacks on them.

True, but there’s also a VERY loud dissent against her on the right, which they would be happy to run with in their ads up to the election. The right - and the sponsors behind them (Russia, chiefly) - ate experts at loudly dispersing disinformation with their rhetoric (see: anti-vaxers, everything about trump, etc), and having AOC in the spotlight would give them a lot of ammo in the form of ThE rAdIcAl LiBeRaLs “talking over the executive office” etc. I just don’t trust that the milquetoast voting public wouldn’t buy into that loud rhetoric enough to not siphon more votes than they would gain. Unless that’s too pessimistic of me?

The American public isn’t yet ready for AOC in executive office, as great a she would be. Her time is yet to come.

That’s very true. I like the play of "more than a bit of chaos on both sides rather then stubbornly try and defy the headlines and possibly fail. As we see with Trump’s truth social post, whining about getting back the money spent campaigning against biden. They’re just as unprepared for this than the democrats.
