Yeah, there’s another one not marked that’s been up for hours. “Tulsi Gabbard to be Director of National Security.” Yeah, okay. Funny joke.

For the uninformed, this is funny (and sarcasm) because there’s mountains of evidence of them together. Besides, you know, picking him for AG. But he tries this defense all the time anyway, and people actually believe it.

Just like explicitly Trump calling up members of Congress to kill the bipartisan border bill, and then blaming the Democrats for not passing a border bill. They sold that one on the campaign trail too, and it worked.

No. This isn’t a thing you need to “both sides”. There is nuance.

It’s bad for Netanyahu if settlers die. It’s good for him if Israeli people are threatened. His appeal is that he’ll protect them (including through killing others). If he fails to do that too often, he loses.

Hamas is fine with people on their side dying. Israel is not. Israel is accomplishing their goals through genocide. Palestinians would love to genocide Israel, but they can’t. That doesn’t excuse Israel actually currently committing genocide.

And there’s no excuse for settling land in areas that will keep Israelis in danger. The first settlers are Zionists, later people living there won’t (necessarily) be Zionists.

The same strategy is Hamas’s primary MO. If Israelis die, it’s good for Hamas. If Gazans die, it’s good for Hamas. On one hand, Israel should get a hell of a lot more blame than the Democrats. On the other, you can see how this powers Hamas strategy.

Blockchain is effectively a distributed database. Almost always a good centralized database functions better.

I think Italian and Irish are now acceptable. Maybe choose one of those.

feel free to wow them with contactless payments

This is quite dated. Per Forbes, "Nearly 90% of U.S. consumers now use contactless payments, "

Tip at restaurants where they take your order at the table and bus your table, 15-20% of the total. Absolutely don’t tip at those kiosks at the counter. They’ll beg for a tip because software. You’re absolutely fine to hit skip or custom 0. Don’t normalize that shit.

You need millions of votes across several states, not a few thousand. If they were going to steal this election, it was going to be through the courts.

How much does the setup cost? assuming I’m already self hosting and have some disk space.

VPN and a seed box?

Selling what data? It’s already public.

Youth church functions were always more depraved than anything agnostic.

But something like $7 for premium without ads is absolutely sustainable. But, you know, line go up more.

The Vice President must be eligible to be president. Obama is not eligible for the VP position.

I’ve really enjoyed the GE Cync Matter bulbs. They respond instantly, and I’ve had no issues with them disconnecting the way Nanoleaf bulbs would.

They do seem to really easily go to a peach color instead of warm, but you learn where you can set the temperature before it goes peach.

I only buy Matter/Thread now, despite manufacturers making that difficult.

Note that you may already have a Thread Border Router. Many of the Alexa-like devices have the functionality.

While I generally agree, this is less about activity in other communities and more about harassing the mod and general reputation. Another person who posted to all the same communities would not be banned.
