He's apparently an idiot, since every time Democrats haven't won, the entire country has been dragged right.

Hey, don't bring history and facts into this, you're gonna scare ozma!

Passerby6497 ,

If you're expecting coherence (or truth) out of ozma's unhinged complaints, you're expecting waaaaay too much.

How can you say that tho, there's like 3 poster who constantly post inane and worthless critiques that are going to totally stop all votes for GeNoCiDe JoE from ever being elected again!

Who is going to be voted in instead? Don't you worry about that, all that matters is that you don't vote for the genocide guy (no mind that genocide harder, locally and globally, is the only other option).

Passerby6497 ,

There is a strange, substantive vacuum in this campaign cycle.

Yeah, almost like people are focusing on comparatively piddly bullshit on one side and ignoring mountains of terrible on the other, because ya gotta keep the horse race going, and because you gotta make the worst of one side equal to the best on the other. Even when they're still leagues apart.

Passerby6497 ,

Because, again, it's kind of hard to argue against what they literally carved into a rock.

Not arguing with you here, cuz I have no dog in this fight, but you're seemingly ignoring the possibility of the emperor bragging about crowd size the number of slaves workers utilized?

Passerby6497 ,

I'm not saying they didn't have a lot of slaves, just thinking that they might be exaggerating slave count (as a metric of how powerful they were) while using something like this river (something innocuous that they wouldn't need to brag about) to augment the bodies in use.

How do you know when Republicans are lying?

Their lips move.

Passerby6497 ,

At this point, you should be able to ask, if you missed something important in the last few years. Is there any open conversation waiting for a reply somewhere?

Not sure if you've ever used Copilot (I have it at work) and it offers the ability to summarize conversations and tell you what you've missed. I've used that a lot for high chatter conversations when I don't feel like catching up or I've been out. Pretty nice.

Some people crave or have to have some kind of flavor with their liquids or they don't want it. I have known multiple people who thought water tasted gross, which is somewhat legit because I had to get used to the different water taste when I went to school on the opposite side of town, but they just thought any kind of water was gross. They'd always have a soda or coffee or something.

My issue isn't flavor necessarily, its carbonation. But plain/unsweetened soda water is gross and soda streams aren't worth it to make my own infused water.

Passerby6497 ,

having dinner with a fizzy drink is just wrong.

Its not mandatory, but I'll have you know this is incorrect.

Passerby6497 ,

MediaMonkey is the GOAT for ease of use and library management. Been using them for years since like 3.x, maybe 2.x.

Passerby6497 ,

I see the same behavior, both as a local user and as a user connected to a cloud account.

Passerby6497 ,

they are targeting polls on purpose to maintain a "horse race".

This one right here. Maintaining a horse race makes people think the candidates are struggling against each other and increases eyeballs and engagement, which is more money for them.

When it comes to media, follow the money and Occam's razor for the answer to questions like that.

My thoughts exactly. My wife loves being with other women, and we both like mff relationships, so we just got a girlfriend. Solves so many problems and makes raising a kid together so much easier with an extra set of hands. Makes the various medical issues between all of us easier to deal with.

Passerby6497 ,

I don't give 47% of a shit what Mittens the Car Topper Dog has to say.

Passerby6497 ,

That's just the worm talking Bobby. In reality, no one respects you or sees you as a real candidate.

Passerby6497 ,

Damn, I was really hoping to find a mathmagician!

Obscure screw added so appliance cannot be disassembled ( lemmy.world )

Basic blender went bad (motor ran but spindle wasn't rotating). I wanted to disassemble to see if it could be repaired. Three of the four screws were Phillips head. I had to cut the casing open in order to discover why I couldn't unscrew the fourth. It was a slotted spanner.

Passerby6497 ,

If you haven't already, look into getting a ratcheting screwdriver with replaceable bits, and a pack of various bits for it. Idk where I got it, but I've got all kinds of screwy bits (including the H-bit head) that I need very infrequently, but I'm always happy when I do and I already have it.

I think the bit pack I got was for the security torx and it came with a bunch of other stuff.

What are some personally spiteful things you want to do against society because of how much you don't like it's direction? ( kbin.social )

For example, I sometimes do want to vote for Trump. Not because I like the man. Not because I find him as a credible leader, in fact, he's a murderer in my eyes by negligence because of his handling of the 2020 COVID Pandemic....

Passerby6497 ,

Accelerationism is a weakness of those who don't have the courage to do what it takes to better society. Cowards who would rather destroy than try to create, because they have no creativity of their own and lash out in ignorance when people try to explain it to them.

Vote for who you want, but it's clear you don't give a fuck about anything in your thoughtless rant. But at least try to improve your local community. Maybe having a bit of human connection will break the childishness of thought and actions shown in this post.

Passerby6497 ,

Yeah, but that requires doing more than just doom posting, and we can't have that now can we? /s

So many of the things people bitch about could be lessened (not necessarily resolved, but ffs, perfect is the enemy of good) by getting involved locally and trying to make things better for themselves and their neighbors. Fuck, even working on 3rd party support locally while stemming the bleeding nationally until there's real ground level support would be better, but I guess we gotta tilt at windmills nationally and ignore the local level to get shut done......

It wasn't a gadget, but we put a grocery bag dispenser on our wedding registry. We ended up getting it, and it was nice to have a good place to put them that was easy to grab them out as needed. Haven't used it nearly as much now that we are using reusable grocery bags, but it's still nice when I need to put a bag in my office trash can.

Passerby6497 ,

Also not a gadget in and of itself, but I built a home assistant server and zigbee network with all kinds of automations for time based, motion or event activation. Makes me feel like I live in the future lol. But that wasn't exactly unexpectedly useful.

Passerby6497 ,

It does not. Haven't found (or looked for) a gadget to do that for me lol

"Reeeeeeee people don't like my lame anti-Biden posting reeeeeeeeeeeeee"

It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't always such lame criticism or some nobody's opinion like we should give a fuck what Ja says.

I had an apartment that switched payment processor that jacked up my credit card fee well above my cash back (prob cuz people like me ended up saving like 10/mo), so I just switched to bank issued checks that they send for me.

Using the checkbook I got 20 years ago is just a massive pain in the ass.

Pedo Guy Musk let us know it's just a South African phrase that's common.

Passerby6497 ,

I really haven't had dreams in years. I used to dream regularly in high school, and would regularly experience dream deja vu irl.

I thought maybe it was due to my appreciation of cannabis, but I only had one dream during my last T break and it was early in the time period. No other dreams over the course of multiple weeks, so idk.

Passerby6497 ,

And they absolutely fucked years and years of security training by fucking with url previews and truncating the front of the url.

What the actual fuck were they thinking?

Passerby6497 ,

I probably wouldn't have either of my CISO didn't have to deal with it (and bitched at me to try to find a fix) because new outlook is just the shit mail app with a fresh coat of paint.

They'll have to take old outlook out of my cold dead hands.

Passerby6497 ,

Kid doesn't know what happened to the younglings....

“Death Panels” and shit

That was honestly the part that pissed me off the most about that whole discourse, mainly because we already had death panels and they were regularly sentencing people to death in order to save money.

They were called insurance companies, and they were able to drop your coverage and sentence you to death because you can't afford to pay to stay alive.

Passerby6497 ,

Or Oregon at all before 1926.

Passerby6497 ,

Since when have facts ever mattered to republicans?

Passerby6497 ,

Abstaining from voting will lead to Trump’s second term. Inaction is action

And boy do they get butthurt when you point out that there are only two choices that are realistically possible, and not voting or voting third party inherently favors republicans.

Let's not forget that the left abandoning the democrats in the 70s and 80s didn't make the party move left, they moved right and we got 3rd way dems.

Passerby6497 ,

I'm guessing they're using the shit stain politician's nomenclature to describe the protesters.

Passerby6497 ,

Agreed. It's really sad how many people are unwilling or unable to think about 2nd and 3rd order consequences to actions.

Passerby6497 ,

Does it matter when the immigrant is white? My money is on those immigrants being the "good ones"

Passerby6497 ,

They will come in and go out,

Giggidy

Passerby6497 ,

I have the opposite problem, my variables are sometimes too descriptive. I even annoy myself at times with VariableThatDoesThisOneThing and VariableThatDoesDifferentThing just because I want to be able to come back later and not wonder what I was smoking.

Passerby6497 ,

Given the search summary of that one is "an antibiotic medication used as a last-resort treatment for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections", that sounds very bad.

Passerby6497 ,

Haven't we always?

IMO, the only difference between the past and now is that they have to actively fight against it instead of it just being suppressed by the dominant culture (that felt the same way, but didn't have to openly enforce it).

Passerby6497 ,

Meanwhile in VS Code: hey, I see this Unicode symbol that's confused for this expected symbol, would you like to replace it?

Passerby6497 ,

Not enough mother fuckers.

Passerby6497 ,

And I'm sure certain people will find a way to blame Biden for not doing enough

Passerby6497 ,

Well yeah, they didn't have to go to the writers room to come up with a narrative, or dig through his rap sheet to see if he ever looked at a marijuana.

Passerby6497 ,

I just assume malicious intent in those cases. Not sure I've ever been wrong.

Passerby6497 ,

Glad to hear it. I'll be honest, I wasn't aware of that command, I've just always done it the hard way and logged into the console of the container. I have this line in my .bashrc on all my docker hosts:

alias docker-console='docker exec -it "${PWD##*/}" bash'

Passerby6497 ,

Anyone who thinks both sides are the same is head caved in stupid, not paying attention, or willfully lying.
