I don’t watch cable TV. I get free Disney plus which includes ads. For these I do in fact mute them. I find ads annoying.

I actually don’t think so. Like I speak with Republicans that are very dismissive of covid still, despite having family members die to it. If people were bothered by his covid response, they would continue to be bothered by the fact Trump shit the covid response. Instead it seems voters think everything was fine during his term (completely uninformed or unaware of the fact that he was impeached twice, raped women, a good friend and neighbor of Epstein, and tried to overthrow the government)

The apathy maybe comes from how Harris was hand picked (because it was so last minute that Biden dropped off) vs us having an actual primary with several democrats.

Not domeone who has given up gaming, but I stopped gaming for a bit with the hope I would be more productive. Not long, short bursts of a couple of months. I hated it because I would still spend time doing “unproductive” things, but even worse, it felt like I wasn’t doing anything actually fun. Like, I’m scrolling on Reddit or Lemmy for like 2 hours? Sure I read quite a bit, but there’s a lot of uneducationa posts, as well as a lot of time spent scrolling because I was on it for so long that the good posts I got through quickly.

At least with video games, I get a sense of learning, and challenging myself.

this is a great video. I think you should post it in a community.

Does it actually seep? my understanding of chemical waste is: that it doesn’t generate a lot (the US has about a foot ball fields worth from all of our nuclear power plants in our total history, so nearly 70 years), and that they placed is secure, not leaking containers. You’re right that it will eventually be a problem, but probably a problem that we will have to deal with later than our current climate crisis. An argument could be made that maybe new nuclear plants shouldn’t be made, but if we have some up and running, that’s cheap energy that generates little carbon.

Yeah it was surprisingly jarring going to Europe and seeing places that were completely inaccessible by wheel chair. I have never used a wheel chair in my life but I know there’s bars in my area that have mini elevators for peole on wheel chairs to access the lower level that’s only like 4 steps down.

By atom, do you mean nuclear energy? Why did you stop the nuclear plant?, assuming that’s what you’re referring to.

How does this relate to Germany relying using natural gas from Russia, before their invasion of Ukraine? My understanding was that Germany had energy issues at the offset, which I wouldn’t expect considering how much renewavles you use

Not always, especially if they lived in liberal area. I know a lot of well off people that don’t mind being taxed and want other less fortunate than them to get help from the government. That or they view Trump as they threat to democracy that he is.

For sure games since they offer a lot of replayability. Maybe some reaading materials since they also don’t occupy a lot of space.

Worst thing for him to say after that. Makes it sound like he was wrong, and thought he could get away with it. It wasn’t a flawless debate from his side, but still better than Trump’s trainwreck with Kamala. I’m hoping they have another debate.

You’re correct that he did like Tulsi Gabbard, and that he also announced that Trump would win reelection if he prosecuted police misconduct (something I wouldn’t say is very right leaning). He also donated 140 USD to ActBlue (Dem Super Pac I think. Point is, they are a group that supports Dems).

he also wanted to go to Ukraine to fight against Russians apparently. He feels like just a crazy extremist that actually didn’t like Trump. I don’t know what made him support Trump to begin with when many of what he seemingly wanted don’t align with Trump.

Probably using a group chat or something. I can’t imagine he personally knows all 50 of these guys tbh. I hope not at least for the reasons you indicated.

Deadlock is really great. I like to go to the enemy base and try to 1v6 people repeatedly. I get angry when my team tries to help or pings me to do mid boss, urn or kill creeps.

It logs you out? that’s annoying. I’ve logged in with the above command. As Emil mentioned, you can log in in offline mode then switch to online mode.

Damn bro, all part of her plan, she’s going to let you down even harder this time! Jk

Social events like bars and raves are an option. You’ll find people who just want to get shit faced, but also social people. Volunteer work has a lot of people you can interact with and eventually become friends with. Game places are another option as mentioned. Video games as well. If you have a dog, parks are a way to start conversations and meet people.

Budgeting is very important. some people like the 20% of income for saving, 30% for living expenses and the other 50% for everything else. Pre or post tax is up to you as this is a rule of thumb. Important part is that it should be easy for you to build up your savings to cover important expenses. spending 50% of income on housing may be really bad since having back to back years of badluck can screw over your savings, and not give you enough time to save up in between.

This is a general rule that applies when you make enough to do so. If you’re struggling to pay rent, do what you can to remove risk and cut down on costs. One thing that helps is aiming to have savings. Often times, its cheaper to have money up front to resolve emergencies rather than later.

Car is one of those things that can make sense to remove. If you’re commuting one hour already by car, and there’s no public transit option then a car is a necessity. If you can take public transit, that could save you money on car insurance, car payments, car maintenance, and possible accidents.

Drive less would best the recommendation. Though I feel this doesn’t directly help yourself so much as everyone.

I’m very surprised. I kept my out for the last 3ish years. Let me know if you try them again. I’m wondering if that was a fluke bad purchase? Hope its not quality degredation

The rueters one doesn’t indicate anything about Trump talking to Bibi and discouraging him from setting up a peace deal.
