What a joke. She has less than zero chance. No charisma. Her initial campaign struggled to raise money. She had to drop out before the primary in her own state. Black voters in her state largely viewed her as a narc. Her approval polling is consistently terrible… She has similar approval ratings as colorectal cancer.

Trying to think of recent German films I’ve seen and the best I can do is Das Leben der Anderen and Der Untergang, both being 20 years old.

Jill Biden is reading the Edith Wilson handbook.

I just take Marques for what he is - normie entertainment tech channel.

All marketing hype associated with Apple is always to be taken with a grain, nay, a shovel of salt.

I do love having to give a 2 paragraph disquisition of caveats about how I didn’t vote for either major party candidate in 2016 or 2020, before I can make literally any comment on either of these people or the current state of US politics, lest I be downvoted into oblivion or accused of being an evil Repub shill.

Ironically when we do this on Lemmy we are qualifying ourselves to a cohort of mostly people who didn’t vote at all, or aren’t even Americans.

You know it is pretty bad when a bunch of CNN commentators think he got smoked.

Cocaine Mitch has largely stepped aside and John Boehner literally hasn’t been speaker since 2015.

Shouldn’t this thumbnail show Mike Johnson, Hakeem Jeffries, Chuckles Schumer, or Nancy “totally valid investment strategies” Pelosi?

Unfortunately no “SWAG” type stuff. If you’re in the US, the majority is spent on entitlements, servicing debt, and the defense budget. In that order.

Abigail is best girl

I enjoyed a lot of the game objectives… Automating the farm, going to the bottom of the mine and the desert thing, completing the community center, courting a spouse etc.

A lot of the grindy bits weren’t as fun, such as missing some season-specific cutscene or event and not having the exact right item, the feeling of needing to speed grow certain crops at the beginning of each season, etc.

Overall it was a chill and positive experience. The music is awesome, character interactions not too laborious. This game plays great on SteamDeck and with proper settings it sips battery. For a long flight, I would pair this title with stuff like Animal Well, Dead Cells, and Cave Blazers.

“I’m doing my part!”

Trespasser was a vibe in some ways. The clean screen and unique control scheme was innovative at the time. Granted it doesn’t hold up very well now, but there were some cool concepts at least.

ROFL

An alternative way of saying you don’t enjoy subtext.

What did you think of No Country (same year, similarly dark, more action and different theming)

Spoon is an awesome band that mostly flies just below the radar while still quietly releasing awesome records. They have been active since the 90s and they don’t have a single bad album.

A lot of public school districts now provide laptops or Chromebooks to the students to use during class while doing… let’s say…minimal oversight at best.

So most of the same inappropriate garbage behaviors and distractions will just be offloaded from the personal phone to the school device.

They can do whatever they want, sure. What I will say is the moving goalposts for certain “undesirable” content is pretty ridiculous especially if you consider the history of YouTube. Several of the first partner channels and many of the oldest YT channels are gun channels. They were glad to exploit that community to build their platform, but will throw them under the bus at every turn if it can be used to virtue signal or pander to advertising partners.

Any competent person with $50 and access to a hardware store can build functional firearms. This didn’t start with 3D printers.

It is 100% legal in the US to build ones own firearms for personal use. Only a few states have put any additional requirements around it.

Building new full auto guns is already illegal without the proper federal licensure. It was already possible for motivated bad actors to ignore this law if they want, even before 3D printing became a moral panic.

There is already zero point to gun control. Can’t stop the signal.

PSR is an awesome channel and his music slaps. He doesn’t give any instructions or links to files or anything else. He just shows completed examples he built that the community designed. YouTube needs to fuck off with the censorship. The information is all out there. They aren’t protecting anybody.

Not one mention of the Vandals?
