- zeekaran@sopuli.xyztoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some old-timey names that you think should make a comeback?English1·8 months ago
Say you’re vegetarian and you get a vote in what the office gets for lunch. You can get either steakhouse meaty meats or pizza. You don’t love pizza but a slice of cheese pizza beats not eating. You’d rather everyone order from a sandwich shop where you can choose a veggie sandwich. But that’s either not an option or everyone would vote for the other two making your lone vote was wasted because it didn’t sway the democratic majority in your favor at all. So you vote for cheese pizza over a mass of brisket or whatever.
Did you get a voice? Yeah, you did. This is what people mean by “lesser of two evils.” A minority opinion in a democracy doesn’t get to authoritatively decide what’s best for everyone. Also, primaries and local elections exist.

The time to actually vote is now. I voted a week ago.

I was shocked to find out I have a friend I thought was intelligent suggest I withhold my vote for Kamala. Fuck you, dude.
Out of the only two options on the ballot that have any chance of winning, which side shits on the veterans dying in the streets and which side tries to help them?

Lightly screw in one
And then replace my old shit and not touch anything but HDMI or DP for the last ten years.
Not exactly what you’re looking for but the doubles for Theron and Hardy got married.

Your numbers are off. 30-35 absolutely interacted with desktops only until college. The smart phones when we were in high school were blackberries.

Not that buying a whole different car is always financially smart, but you have an ideal setup for getting a cheaper, often lower range EV.

I work remotely too so a new car is an unnecessary expense. Instead a purchased a different kind of EV: an electric bike!*

Texas also has the most effective voter suppression and disenfranchisement in the country. It can be very difficult to vote in the blue cities.
Pretty sure no one in that room even knew the hole existed.
Phil and Venture at the same level of trust is rough but true.

For people just using a browser and mail, they could just use Android. Samsung Dex is pretty great as a laptop replacement.

I’m pooping on the toilet right now.
This order is more closely related to catfish.

- zeekaran@sopuli.xyztoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice?English6·9 months ago
If a friend goes on an international trip and takes five hundred photos, I’d look at them all.
I have no friends with babies. Hypothetically I wouldn’t care about seeing the baby except for making the parent feel better. I care about kids but not until they’re old enough to be interesting, and babies aren’t.

Netflix has a reputation for cancelling good shows. This leads to a negative feedback loop where people don’t want to pick up a new Netflix show with the assumption it’ll never be finished, then Netflix complains about low viewership and cancels it.
The real solution is to just cancel Netflix entirely.
Most states with mail in ballots don’t allow in person votes to negate mailed ballots.
