Not precisely as I mentioned public ownership of some industries and services that are privately owned. Healthcare and drug production would be two good examples.

Defeatist because I’m not pushing for full communism or are you referring to something else?

• practical: I don’t have any delusions that the US will implement leftism more extreme than EU style socialist policies any time soon
• American: I’m from the US
• socialist: I feel the government should be involved more in regulating industries, owning certain categories of services, moderating excess wealth, and ensuring the financial/economic well-being of citizens, as opposed to the conservative style which is basically ‘well, if you’re poor then fuck off’.

I’m more of a practical American socialist than a radical communist (since that’s unlikely to happen here) but it offends me because republicans are just so ignorant. The average Republican essentially has no idea what socialism, communism or fascism actually are, and conservatives have been using this as a scary label for my entire life.

I don’t know where you live so I don’t have any relevant suggestions, sorry.

Not by voting for people in elections they can’t win. Vote at the local and state level or in primaries for people who will enact voting reform.

There’s one photo where she has a slight protrusion in a tight dress… and it looks like, you know, her vulva. I swear these people have never really seen a woman naked in person. You’d figure they’d at least get a clue from porn.

I’d love to see this happen to the deluded fucknuts obsessed with the same about Michelle Obama.

Unfortunately, I think most people do want wireless connections at this point. We might even have phones with no wired connections at all soon.

It certainly covers the use case for an iPhone, right? Not sure what you’re trying to say. If you don’t have an iPhone why would you care if iPhones have 3.5mm jacks?

Apple EarPods are $20 in either Lightning, USB-C or 3.5 mm. You can get off-brand Lightning for $6 at Walmart, so I don’t think price is a factor.

Anyway, I have had a phone without a 3.5 jack for 4 years now and it hasn’t really affected my life much. I thought it was lame they removed it too, I don’t really expect electronics manufacturers to keep a connector from the 50s forever.

Maybe! Idk, I used to like mock duck. Soy based lunch meat is pretty good too. Alas, I’ll never be able to try this company’s stuff as it all has wheat in it.

Apparently this is a soy and wheat gluten loaf and is made in the Phillipines.

People buy wireless earbuds because they want them though, not because they were forced into it.

Yes, the charging thing is annoying but it doesn’t affect me in most situations. Also, you can get an adapter for like $10 that allows you to charge and use wired headphones.

Not really what the headline is trying to say… AI debates means debates about AI, not AI participating in debates.

Because of….? Anyway I have headphones that have a lightning jack and don’t need an adapter.

That didn’t work, though? My phone came with headphones that plug into the Lightning outlet.

iPhones don’t have the 3.5 mm jack anymore but I don’t see what the big deal is… you can still use wired headphones that plug into the charging/data port.
