This seems like a FOSS bait and switch. Yall gotta start getting the message: The profit is the problem.

Could you get a couple whistles at ‘come online’ at various speeds?

You might need some funnels to concentrate the air, but if you might be able to tune it so it works in the lower speed, 0-30 range.

Otherwise, if you can could also get a Raspy and a gyroscope to play them as recordings when certain tilt requirements are met.

I’m gonna pay my $15 to watch.

15$?

Register a domain name based on some hair brain fantasy for the year.

Then spend the year ideating and fantasizing about what might be while doing nothing.

Thats a whole year of value for 15 bucks.

Yeah its been a journey. My cakeday for the an account I made on ml would be about now, and I think its around a month till this account is officially a year old.

Its an odd time to be on a platform like lemmy.

We’re seeing an almost complete adulteration of what we might call the internet 2.0 era sites into walled gardens of exclusion. Effectively, the stealing, en-masse of almost two decades of user generated content. The walls and gates of the gardens we planted get higher everyday; the enshittification of all things.

And yet here we are. On a self-hosted, federated, unbought, unbroken, and unbent platform. Obviously its not all roses, but for what its worth, both the users and developers have created something incredibly special: A ray of hope in a time where it seems like the world has only been changing for the worse. And while the instances have their differencs, we should be looking to embrace those differences as much as possible, because this is what truly gives the fediverse strength. If its Kbin or Lemmy or Mastadon; or .ml or .world or .blahaj.zone.

The point of the fediverse isn’t consolidation or control, but distribution and access. There is so much more possible simply because enough of us were willing to make the journey over here. We’re providing the future with an alternative that isn’t tracking them, trying to manipulate them with an algorithm, or to turn them into commodities. There is power in that.

So happy cakeday. Happy cake season to those who were messing around with a browser plug-in about this time last year, trying to delete their reddit history. Happy cakeday to the developers, to those who post, and to the commenters. And most of all, happy cake day to you dear lemming reading this. You make this place happen.

Yeah this game was… interesting enough. I can’t say it was really worth the time to figure out though. I really like RPGs, open world/ multi-path games. But this one just didn’t “hook” me.

Happy cakeday.

That is a grim but valid point.

I still think it’s a spectrum and I put it at a 2-8% drop in polling by June, and a 6-12 point drop by July.

Keep in mind that’s not a probability of victory. Biden also working to lower his polling numbers.

Yeah. It definitely matters. Republicans and voters who voted for him in 2016 or 2020 aren’t a monolith. They are on a spectrum.

People change. People move on. People use lots of factors to decide what they think the best strategy is going to be.

There is a kind of recursive/ circular reasoning people use to determine who they support, which is specifically “how likely is this person to be elected?”, their electability. People aren’t willing to support a candidate if they don’t see them as ‘viable’ (which itself is determined in-part by how much support a candidate has).

Being a felon is just, straight-up, a hit to electability. A felon Trump is fundamentally less electable than non-felon Trump.

There is some cohort of republican voters that will never move on from Trump. There is some cohort of republican voters that are barely attached to Trump. Most lay some where in between. I would guess that maybe 10-15% of Republican voters won’t ever vote for anyone but Trump. Maybe the same percentage are barely attached to Trump (again 10-15%). If even 3-5% of Republican voters move away from Trump, heck if even 1% of Republican voters can be moved on this, that has big impacts because of the self-feeding nature of ‘electability’. A 3% drop in polling for Trump can very quickly turn into a 5-10% drop in polling.

This ruling makes it just that much harder for Trump to grow his base.

Ahem. I don’t see the Lemmy app on there.

75?

Fuck that. Social security retirement age.

Cradle robbing and coffin robbing are fair game as long as both parties are age of consent, and consenting.

Any one judging you for your choices is a puritanical cunt.

That being said go ahead and pirate, I’m not your dad

What am I letters on a screen? I’m not going to stop you.

Theres probably a room temperature superconductor for example.

I thought that one was a no go? Did I miss more news?

Material science has just been crushing it for a good long minute now.

The issue I have with them is mostly that they emphasize the ‘shit’ part of shit posting almost exclusively. It’s all layered fourchan esque edge lording ‘sarcasm’ but it’s not really even sarcasm it’s being a shitty in lieu of actually being funny. Kids too wrapped up in language like ‘theory’ and ‘praxis’ instead of actual understanding and lived experience. If lemmy.ml is the Vampire the Masquerade of socialism, hex bear are the fucking dufuses with foam swords who are pretending they are samurai or some shit.

That seems good.

I mean if you are looking for excitement… Maybe snake charmer?

Otherwise it doesn’t seem like you are in a position to find happiness through your employment. It hasn’t exactly ‘worked out’ so far, so maybe you should figure out why you are unhappy and then work backwards to what you want to spend your time doing. Like if being unhappy is what you enjoy, that’s fine too, but be real with yourself. It sounds like you’ve driven head first into a couple walls at this point, and when alternative advice comes around your like “but that wont make me happy”, well bro/sis/sib, neither did any of your other approaches. Maybe try something where you don’t actually know what the outcome will be.
