Five states banned RCV this past election. You’ll never guess which group made that happen. But hey, both parties are bad.

The best search engine for my money is kagi. It’s $5 a month but there’s no ads, I get to block pinterest and I downranked fandom wikis. There’s even a fediverse filter.

Something tells me you already have an idea of what those words mean. I’m not here to have a debate, I just thought I could help with understanding the parent comment. I thought it was pretty obvious what calling Xi the CEO of China was implying.

10 types of people in this world as the saying goes

It means the parent commenter thinks “socialism with Chinese characteristics” looks an awful lot like state capitalism.

And how are we going to do that when we gave the keys to the party that banned ranked choice voting in 10 states?

“only if the grain is corn”

“I am going to kill you” – death threat

“I am going to send you back to the lobby” – funny Fortnite joke

Streisand effect

a aaa aaaaa

I’m not angry and I’m certainly not a centrist. All I wanna know is what you’re doing to justify taking the moral high ground. Seeing an obvious problem (the DNC is a dumpster fire) doesn’t get you points with anyone.

If all you do is post, you’re just noise. Do you participate in any kind of direct action? Do you volunteer? Are you advocating for anything, or are you just venting?

It’s okay, man, you’re not alone. Most people don’t do anything. Civic disengagement is kind of the status quo anymore.

What are you doing other than bitching about the opposition party on Lemmy? Genuinely curious.

What if the homunculus argues that it, as a new and distinct being, has committed no crimes, and deserves to live? What if it begs for its life as you load it into the teleporter to split it back up into your science officer and annoying morale officer shoot it into the sun?

earlier than initially projected

There’s that phrase again. If only someone had warned us loudly and repeatedly.

Can he withdraw from breathing the same air as me too?

Voting is the least we can do besides doing nothing. Which makes it pretty disappointing that so many people will be all like “oh voting doesn’t do anything, we should tear down the government instead” and then they proceed to do neither of those things.

It didn’t ship with my controller, I had to order it extra. I looked it up and apparently they started shipping the backplate standard with the second run of controllers. Hopefully the new controller also uses a dongle, because good god do I hate Bluetooth. Being able to plug the damn thing in and have it work on any machine instead of faffing about with BT unpairing and repairing like I do with my Xbox controller is so nice.

I’m sure they’ll make a steam controller: episode 1.
