Why do people forget that in 2011 you could have bought a used copy for $19 and even less with a trade on of a game you already finished? The digital market is not the same.

It’s not gay as long as the kiss is only 1/4" of tongue or less.

I think a bigger component in making this happen is instituting ranked choice voting. Political parties are private institutions that have amassed entirely too much power over our country. Sure, we can vote but electoral college or popular voting and we still are stuck with a candidate selected by one of two private institutions. These private entities are able to control elected officials who stray too far from the party line. As long as large political parties control the candidates our vote holds less power.

We stop the horrors by placing stipulations on the aid we supply the Israelis. We stop turning a blind eye to how their extreme right wing factions like Netanyahu’s Likud party use our money and military resources. The United States, Europe and most of Asia are against settlements within Palestinian territories but each year right wing politicians allow or even encourage taking over more and more land. Plenty of Israeli citizens are against the settlements and against the Netanyahu regime so let’s work with them to make decisions that aren’t so obviously provocative to both their neighbors as well as the minority Israeli citizens who also live there. Let’s not pretend Netanyahu’s do whatever he pleases policies aren’t a big part of the anger and aggression we are seeing year after year. Our aid and financial support should be 100% conditional.

He had them at “women won’t even think…”

My point was that a transmitter would be easily detectable.

I am fully against this booby trapping war crime regime but the problem with your first options is that pagers don’t transmit like phones do. That means there would be no way to remotely aquire the GPS or other saved data undetected.

I didn’t read this post because it is way too long. Please make a short ten to twenty second video summering your points but make sure it’s also funny or I’ll get bored and swipe.

Insurance transition from protection against highly unlikely emergencies to our default payment system is the biggest scam in world history.

This is what I picture mall cop warfare looks like.

The Samsung keyboard definitely looks better but underperforms both gboard & SwiftKey when it comes to swipe typing, auto correction and spelling. I very much wish it was the best because I’m getting tired of the other two trying to force AI features on their keyboards.

I’m fairly certain it’s getting worse.

As if I wasn’t already highly motivated this year. 🤣

That’s very presumptuous of you to assume they don’t already have one.

Please repeat your question clearly into the room microphone. Instructions will follow.

What an idiot. Does he not realize talking about banning guns is the number one way to motivate right wingers? The US is NOT going to ban guns especially with the current Supreme Court. This is an example of his old team running old plays that haven’t been successful since the 90s. He needs to go before he causes any more damage to his party.

I should open a mega church. My day gig just isn’t cutting it anymore and I Iike the idea of getting rich while working only Sundays.

I’ve had prime since almost day one. Lately I’ve been trying to reduce my dependency on Amazon which isn’t easy when you’re already paying them in advance for shipping just to keep prime video and a few free games and ebooks. This was the push I needed to finally sever that tie and release myself from their trap. This could be the start of a good thing for a lot of people. Prime has been an effective competition blocking lock-in scheme for too long. It’s end result is it’s ability to keep prices high because they are the sole gatekeeper. Good riddance Amazon.

I use Arch and only use Vim or Emacs for config files. That’s Linux flex culture right there. 🙂

I saw an earlier post that showed Lemmy’s recent rapid growth followed by a plateau and then slight decline. My feeling is that there is a very LOUD minority of Lemmy users that are trying to act as self-anointed gatekeepers and they’re bringing the platform down as a direct consequence. It makes the platform look petty and small to new and existing users alike. If the top posts are continually about shaming other users then this platform isn’t going to last. Let’s focus on building communities and having interesting conversations rather than one upping each other.
