Right? I understand Windows is mass surveillance spyware, but holy shit the Linux proselytizing on this site is worse than any Christian mission, it's straight up ridiculous. If anything, all the constant nagging will further entrench some users into Windows out of spite.
I've been here, hiked on that exact path. The canyon is gorgeous, the whole thing is windswept such that you can see different eras of erosion on the surface of the rocks. On the main path, you can view dwellings in the distance on slopes that seem impossible to traverse. It's a beautiful place and a testament to Native American resourcefulness. Pretty close to the Barringer crater too.
This is the first time they've been caught. It would be naive to think this is the only time this has happened. No doubt they've scrubbed data of bad actors on their side many times without anyone knowing.
I don't believe so, I think it has to do more with seeing something novel that you don't get to see every day. Like, not many people have the means to fill a house with elephant toothpaste, so when someone does that it makes for a pretty entertaining video.
I love this idea, but the main obstacle this has to overcome is the voter's knowledge of the issues and any given candidate stances on them. If we implemented this in the US, I feel like most people would still simply delegate all their votes to one candidate or all candidates of a particular party. It's a lot of information for a working person to keep track of. Any idea on how to overcome this with paper ballots? Or are computerized ballots with all relevant information embedded within the way to go?
Minecraft. Started playing in 2011 and have played off and on every year since then. It's now really popular again, but I distinctly remember around 2017-18 it became suddenly uncool to play. When I would be in a VC with friends while playing it, they would ride my ass for it. The ~10 year nostalgia/hype cycle is coming full circle lol
Why do they exclusively only cancel good shows (Mindhunter, Inside Job, now this) and keep up actual garbage?? I don't think Netflix has made a wise business decision ever, the only reason they're successful is because they were the first. They're lucky Blockbuster didn't buy them.
Just found this comm today. I call myself a socialist, but I like political discourse and figuring out why people believe the things they do. I have so much respect for people that take the time to think about why they believe the things they do and it's apparent to me that you do precisely that.
It's easy for me to agree with every point you've made in your post. Relying on your fellow man, justice, diversity, providence, balance, democracy, and border reform I completely agree with. I read your comment about strong institutions over strong government and once again I agree. Generally, a leftist like me should disagree with everything conservatism stands for. So then that begs the question: what makes you call yourself a conservative? If I didn't know the comm I was in, I'd assume you were a fellow leftist from the opinions in your post alone.
I call myself a socialist because I don't believe private ownership is productive for society. By private ownership in this context, I don't mean a man owning his house, I mean a multinational corporation buying up entire neighborhoods. I also think workplace decisions should be made in a democratic fashion. Employees should choose the person to lead them instead of having a boss in place by management that can lord over their employees like a king. Those opinions would make me a socialist.
I guess what I'm asking is what specific opinions do you have that would overall make you lean toward a conservative platform as opposed to a leftist platform? I know it's not necessarily a binary decision, but you know what I mean.
I'm a pretty conservative game purchaser. I've never paid over $40 for a game (including games on sale) because there are so, so many amazing indie games on Steam that charge so little for many hours of fun.
When I see a AAA game come out, I know it's going to be profit-driven, uninspired, and rushed because it exists solely for the purpose of making money for a large corp. For that reason (among others), I avoid them altogether because I know my dollar goes way further going toward an independent developer who makes games for passion (and only sometimes for money). The passion always shines through in their work, unlike passionless AAA games.
Exactly right. Prompt ""engineering"" is the same as calling the guy at Subway making a sub a "sandwich engineer." It dilutes the value of jobs where people actually engineer things.

Obviously it's higher. If it was any lower, they would've made a huge announcement out of it to prove they're better than the competition.
The thumbnail very briefly had me convinced that Trump developed the ability to cast fireballs

A paid plan on a chat application? Needs a catchy hook... Matrix Nitro, perhaps?
Carrier pigeons didn't have government backdoors. Maybe we ought to go back to them

One half-baked concession to the poor doesn't imply their party platform is about improving the lives of poor people.
I ate the hell out of this onion ngl
The southpaws will rise again!
First thing I thought of lmao
I wonder if there's a market here. I feel like a company that cleans up AI bullshit would make bank lol

If abject racism is Republicans' best criticism of Mamdani's policies, then that bodes really well for his platform.
