What do you mean “cling to the idea they can’t be reached?” A huge portion of political spending goes towards trying to increase turnout (of the people likely to vote for you).

That’s… More or less in agreement with what I said, though? The electoral college certainly doesn’t help matters, but the same principle still holds without it, the EC just adds a second hierarchical level of fptp

It’s not like the two party system is deliberately chosen or enshrined in law. The field naturally winnows down to two parties because that is basically guaranteed to outcompete every other possibility under a first-past-the-post voting system. You want to fix the two party system, you need to fix our voting system.

Girl, I can’t keep track of who the “theys” and “girls” are enough to even have any idea what you’re talking about

It’s also not a tower defense game, it’s a moba. There are towers and some defending of them, but you’re not placing and upgrading towers to stop enemies, you’re controlling one individual character from a large roster. The towers play a pretty minor role.

They do. Nobody reads them

I know this is the least important one on there, but I don’t get this thing lately where people talk about “staying hydrated” like it’s some big challenge they have to put effort towards. Like… get thirsty, drink water?

Asking a bunch of random Internet posters on Lemmy, who know nothing about property speculation, land management, investment in general, or especially your country, while providing very few specifics about your plan, is not going to yield useful advice.

Uh. Okay.

And George Soros being some kind of secret mastermind is also a right wing fever dream. Democrats wouldn’t have any interest in doing such a thing

As though Lemmy, or any other vote/like-driven social network, hasn’t been that from day 1?

Screaming seems like an overreaction

The question is not really whether the software will be “better.” In most cases, you only compile from source if you have a specific situation where you need, or think you might benefit from, some specific non-default build option. Or if you don’t trust the provider of pre built releases for whatever reason.

People on Lemmy will believe literally anything you tell them as long as you make it about a corporation or billionaire.

The example in the OP is very obviously food grade plastic, specifically engineered for those use cases

There’s no rack mount server there. I see a UPS, switch (network and Nintendo varieties), PS4 and mini PC

Putting ads targeted to parents on kids’ shows is as old as kids’ shows, man. That’s not a new thing or specific to YouTube

I’m… Not really sure what your question is. What do you mean by your laptop “fitting in the community?”

I mean if we go wide enough, Descartes was talking about it in 1641

It’s wildly under-taught. It explains like half of all problems in the world. Education: “teaching to the test.” Economics: optimizing GDP at the expense of non-material well-being. Maximizing shareholder value by selling out employees and enshittifying your product. Software: “data-driven decision making” optimizing short -term gains over long-term because they are more measurable. That’s just off the top of my head.
