I get your larger points, but do you really believe millions of women had their vote “verified” by their brother or husband??

Comments like this seem to completely miss the forest for the trees. People vote this way for a reason. I truly don’t think 50+% of adults are just horrible people. They feel slighted. They feel they are getting the shit end of the stick. They believe voting this way will help them.

There has to be something done to help these people not feel this. I don’t think the democratic party does a good job with catering to these people. Their message this year was “at least we’re not trump”. “Do anything to stop trump”. That is just fear mongering from another angle. They need to come up with better marketing. They’re fucking terrible at it since Obama left office. Granted, he was easier to market. He was super charismatic. He was cool. Neither Biden nor Kamala can be considered charismatic or cool.

Absolutely love it. Updated mechanics are solid, you don’t feel like a tank running around. Mercenaries is incredibly fun.

I’ve never heard of that. That’s a cool idea.

I’d love a more active sports area. I comment semi regularly in a few. There is small engagement, but would love even 10-15% more.

I remember enjoying this. I need to re watch it because I can’t remember most of the highlights.

An AI chatbot for a cloud service I use helped me find the right documentation for setting up SSO. It’s not all bad. But the way it’s pushed is bad.

I have a Dell XPS and have had zero issues with it. Does what I need - which is minimal, I admit, but it’s great.

They try, but nowadays you can have your new carrier buy you out!

I agree. However there are some gems. Got one good piece of advice from https://lemmy.world/u/BombOmOm and now I’m on the Linux train (at least on one laptop anyway).

The best way I’ve heard it explained is that excel is too good at doing too many, but it isn’t the correct tool for many of those things. Since it’s good and accessible, people make it work and then you get this jumbled mess of stuff after time passes.

I do like the control aspect. I also really enjoy how clean it feels compared to windows.

If it works well (and I mean very well), I will consider doing the same on my main machine. The one the family uses. Maybe just set it up so I boot both windows and Linux… Either way. Very happy with the results so far.

Back to this comment to report that I took the dive. I have a second laptop that wasn’t getting used so I wiped it and installed Linux mint. Love it so far and no issues with any of the basics. Took me all of 1 hr to get up and running.

Maybe. I use Settings for quick things like Bluetooth pairing, changing monitor settings, etc. I do use Control Panel a decent amount and would never want it deprecated though.

Dark Souls 1 and it was Chaos Witch Quelaag. I don’t know how many times she killed me, but it has to have been over 20. I got destroyed over and over again.

This feels like me. But I read somewhere that even if I am on windows 11 ,my current laptop won’t have this feature. So I think I’m okay for now. Maybe my next one will be Linux.

I’ve used Linux before and I kind of hated it. It was fine for me when I had time to fuck around with every setting and go into rabbit holes. But I don’t know if it’ll work on a family device. I have 1 laptop in the house and myself, my wife, and kid all use it. Other than that, all devices are just tablets or phones.

We use the laptop for browsing, casting, document editing, and that’s about it I think. So since it’s that simple, I would hope Linux would “just work”. But we’ll see on my next device.

The programming field is going through what math has been going through for ages. Many people don’t want to learn how things work because they can use a calculator or software to do basic maths. But then when it comes to actually understanding what’s going on, there becomes a big loss.

Well I think that is the macro environment we’re in more than anything. But who knows.

I think the better answer is iTunes. Could be wrong but I don’t think so.
