Of course not. Pick the one that’s most likely going to get elected. Or if that’s R and you can’t bring yourself to be involved in R politics, primary the D.

The point is that this isn’t something that should be limited to a single party.

Believe it or not, not everyone on Lemmy who’s in the US votes D across the board.

Why over 11?

Which is why you primary the current reps. Of BOTH parties.

”They’ll avoid encounters and conflict with people as much as they can. And so we just need to do our part and respect that."

If only the same could be said about politicians.

In the time it takes for all this to play out, all the farmers could recoup their potential losses and then some by replacing their JD investment with Kubota, who supports independent repair shops.

Of course, with the debt load most farmers carry, that’s easier said than done.

If the federal government set up a replacement program though, and shipped all the JD machinery to Ukraine where hackers know how to modify the software, everyone but JD would win.

This is why I run my own NextCloud instance that backs up locally and via offsite rotation.

Sure, I could still lose it all, but it would be 100% my own fault if I did.

The difference is that black market gambling is distributed. It means that there are fewer protections for people who engage in it but more people profiting from it.

But legalization just means most of the action is controlled by a handful of corporations, and the government is involved in protecting the flow of money, of which they get a cut.

Why limited to young men in new york?

That’s like saying that submerging a young man’s head in water for over five minutes could lead to death.

“Peak” is rather optimistic….

That’s a positive spin.

Pessimistic me expected this all along; the goal is to make immigrants feel unsafe no matter where they are, even if ICE only targets some areas when they feel like it.

It’s the same way Trump approaches everything else.

Well, Trump can’t forgive anything.

I think this is the point - headline will be

“<demographic to be vilified> attacks and kills VA nurse/doctor/etc. Government to investigate risks from <demographic>”

And The Band Played Waltzing Mathilda comes to mind for me…. The Aussies already learned the lesson Americans are going to have to learn very soon.

I’d be more likely to just assume delivery quality was going downhill and look for another streaming video hoster/provider. Why would someone link slow speeds to a plugin that filters out the stuff you don’t want?

Currently blocking ads consists of keeping uBlock Origin up to date. Not blocking ads generally means going to a different platform after a single ad roll.

I have no issues with pre-roll ads; it’s the interstitial ones that drive me away.

If they know I’m blocking their ads, why wouldn’t they just block the video altogether? That’s what they currently do.

If it’s already blocked, slowing it down to “blocked… but slower” seems rather pointless?

LibreOffice is offline; each person can run the software in their own device to create and edit documents.

It’s features are equivalent to 2010 Office. That’s not necessarily bad, but it’s not how people usually work today.

Collabora lets you host documents on a central server and have multiple people edit at once, dynamically tracking changes and allowing full revision management. Or, you can keep your documents local and not host them if you don’t want to.

He pre-dates ALL CAPS. For him, that means it’s a new paragraph in a legal document or he forgot to turn off caps lock.

He’ll underline it instead.

You’d think when they asked him for his ID and he showed them his badge and ID card, they’d realize they got the wrong person.

What this illustrates is that ICE does a horrible job of checking people’s identity. It took validation by multiple state officers to get him released.

Yes it is… but it actually allows for collab features that LibreOffice doesn’t have.
