There’s a pendulum, unfortunately it swung just a hair into blue while the country was in the middle of the second depression / first real global pandemic of the 21st century. The US may have recovered better than almost all countries on earth, but because it’s not better than when obama handed it off to dumpy, it’s the democrats fault.
This could happen without meaning to. Just takes a medical procedure that puts biden under and temporarily you have 47th president kamala until he wakes back up… assuming they go through the whole transfer of power procedure for it.
Never know if he’s been putting off a procedure for a condition until after the election. Very plausible though for someone over 80.
It’ll swing back the other way, and once everything is stripped away we’ll be positioned to have a major change. That’s all I can hope for.
Unless elections are suspended, there’s absolutely no way such major changes where EVERYONE but the richest of the rich lose where the conservatives will stay in power. If they actually screw the idiots and take things away that are obvious then they will be so upset they won’t vote R quite so eagerly.
Imo the two worst things that the DNC has done was shutting out Bernie in place of Hillary, and then running fucking biden against dumpy. If they had put Bernie in 2016 then Trump would have lost hard. If they had offered up fresh blood with new ideas instead of an octogenarian clinging to the billionaire establishment with moderate conservative policy then they likely would have won this time.
Biden came in pretending to be not trump, but his stance on immigration, tariffs and many other topics are so disgusting it’s hard to see him (or his replacement) as anything other than a vote for the status quo… and the status quo right now is miserable.
I hate that i’m saying this, but Canada or somewhere in the EU are probably your best bets. If Project 2025 goes according to plan we’re going to see a great upheaval come Q1 2025 that probably clusterfucks everything.
Long term with christian school mandates via defunding education and funding vouchers will further create a hostile nation for anyone who does not conform to a heterosexual white nationalist christian identity.

I swear to christ these people are the dumbest motherfuckers, and nearly half the country is on their side.
The fact that so many idiots are falling in line with ignorant bullshit is just proof of how political advertising is insanely effective. The stance against vaccines is not a medical one - there is really zero debate there - it’s a political one based on feelings, surely a great way to handle medical conditions if you’re stupid, ignorant and incapable of even the most basic of critical thinking.
The real goal is to close underperforming stores with the intention of replacing the ones they close with stores in better locations.
Doesn’t look like this is any kind of sign of real decline for them. They have 7,292 stores per the article. So they are closing less than 2%
I would just use my desktop for that use case. There’s still a small minority of games that just don’t work via proton but it’s really a minority.
I’ve also seen a handful of games with linux builds that just don’t run properly because they update the game but don’t do enough QA to the linux build or simply don’t put resources towards linux issues to the same degree that windows gets.
A handful of games need slight nudges one way or another but overwhelmingly it just works. Way better than it was just a few years ago.
Must be some real easy cheats for apex on linux.
I just want all windows games to run on linux with equivalent performance and without anticheat hurdles. After that happens i’m done with windows.
Honestly, i’m really not that far off as-is. Steam Deck already runs most of my library, it’s just the games that don’t work with a controller that are a problem.
I thought the rest of the world wanted the US to mind their business….?
Apparently reasonable is 20 for 9 million, but unreasonable is 4.3m for 9.
The article makes no sense with its numbers, and all claimed costs are out of this world. It’s a soap dispenser. It should be no more than $500.
How come human drivers have more fatalities and injuries per mile driven?
Musk can die in a fire, but self driving car tech seems to be vastly safer than human drivers when you do apples to apples comparisons. It’s like wearing a seatbelt, you certainly don’t need to have one to go from point A to point B, but you’re definitely safer with it - even if you are giving up a little control. Like a seatbelt, you can always take it off.
I kind of figured that’s been the point from the beginning. If you can’t win an election legitimately because the educated see through your bullshit, do illegal things that cannot be tracked or that is “legal” just despicable, like deregister non-republican voters and make sure your planted vote counters make sure they all seem to show up R or aren’t counted because they are “fraudulent” - because the watchers are all your people there’s nothing to be done to challenge it.
these are the same people who have been accusing every single democrat ever of fraudulent things by any means necessary. They’ve wanted to impeach biden for “fraud” but can’t find any wrongdoing. They are also the people who attempted to create fake electoral votes to seize power after losing the popular vote.
It’s pretty sad the legal system is bought and paid for by billionaires who have no interest in allowing the courts to actually follow the law unless it results in lower taxes and higher subsidies for them. If the judges actually did their jobs a lot more people would be in jail for election interference.
I don’t think the movie in any way calls for eugenics.
If anything it called out how toxic ignorance and stupidity can be in the presence of someone who just wants to do the right thing. It shows how corporate greed and capitalism encourages stupidity to further it’s goals of creating basic labor for the corporate machines owned by billionaires to exploit.
But hey, that’s just like, my opinion man.
She was hot, but her face…
A bill being introduced is about as useful as knowing that girl who sat next to you on the subway has a tramp stamp after she got up and left the car. It doesn’t do anything, nobody is going to talk about it, and odds are you’ll never see her again. But you can talk to the people on the car about how that girl had a tramp stamp… of course most of them want nothing to do with your conversation, they have their own agendas and goals and really couldn’t care less about some rando’s tramp stamp.
Until the bill has passed at both the senate and the house and is signed off on, you never know how it’ll actually end up. These things get destroyed in committees or warped into something completely different than the original intention almost always anyway. I don’t know if I have ever seen a bill survive without any changes, I really don’t think so.
The next guy is gonna be all like “here’s a RTX 4050. It’s the greatest graphics card ever! You’ll be able to play at 4k with raytracing at amazing fps. You’ll be able to create AI models like a pro, faster than anyone else. Don’t worry about the price, we’ll put it on credit (for $50,000 over the next 20 years-) it’ll be cheap and amazing! Trust me, only I can save your build.”
