And do what? Yell at people on twitter? Make a “powerful” statement during an acceptance speech? This country is so fucked and anyone that thinks we’re coming back is delusional. We would need to imprison the vast majority of republicans in office. Even with that, it’s corporate money that runs this country and they would just get replaced and voted in by our idiot population. We are not where we are because of one administration, this is decades in the making. If I had the money and 7 children or however many she has that weren’t white, you can bet I’d be taking them somewhere they could grow up without the fear of being picked up by the Gestapo for being brown.

Highly recommend lemmy. Yes, it doesn’t have all the communities that Reddit has and engagement isn’t as high, but its general content is overall good and it doesn’t feel littered with bots and spam like Reddit. It’s also much easier to access than it was when it first came out and the available clients are light years better than the garbage Reddit app.

Is a train even feasible to roll over them titties? What’s the grade? What’s the terrain at the top like? This seems less about car dependency and more about reasonable transportation when rolling oven them titties.

Corn is literally a fruit and corn kernels are literally the seeds produced by that fruit. This is a scientific fact so I’m not gonna argue with you lol.

These posts are so outdated. This should have been a PSA in 1995. Cooking is not considered feminine in the US. This generation is being raised by millennials that have made a massive split from the way their parents raised them and traditional roles. Kids are also exposed to men in the kitchen way more. Just think about the ridiculous amount of cooking shows on tv and being advertised. Also, I don’t know about anyone else, but cooking the turkey was one of the few times my dad actually did go into the kitchen and was considered a manly task in my mind. And the parents that do still raise their kids with those outdated family roles aren’t gonna be persuaded by some “woke” tweet. I think the message should be just to involve your kids in the preparation of things like this. Give them responsibilities. Start teaching them how to adult early in life.

Corn is technically a fruit, but considered a vegetable or grain in the culinary world. This post is nuts.

Hey if you wanna interpret Gabe’s quotes of aggressive and painful pricing as something other than a loss or close to a loss as I said in my comment, while ignoring the theoretical cost of building a device like that, and the precedent set by so many other companies trying to break into a market like that, there’s nothing else I can say to get you off “winning” this argument. So yeah, I’m sure you’re right. I’m sure Valve is just banking on a bunch of existing steam users to want to buy a $700–$800 mid range box so they don’t have to move their PC into their living room to game on the couch. Solid business model.

You picked one quote out of both those articles to interpret as your counter to my point? Seems to me this isn’t even an argument. It’s a consensus among anyone that understands the cost of building that device. Amazing that your response to me providing sources is “But the owner didn’t say it explicitly, so it doesn’t count.” Are you 12 years old? Why don’t you provide some sources about how profitable the steam deck was?
