Republican observers have always been present in our county to watch every step of election processing. They never miss any tiny part of the process. My state is still going to be processing mail in ballots for several days, but yesterday morning the Republican observers just disappeared and stopped coming.

I just installed Bazzite, it’s all baked in.

Married, happy, and doing financially ok (house paid off but no real savings). Life would have been a lot harder with kids.

I unplugged the old drive and installed on a fresh one. I’d heard that dual boot installs could be finicky, so I just avoided it. Sorry it didn’t go smoothly for you.

I installed Bazzite about a week ago. Other then the Nvidia performance not being quite as fast and me not having figured out what I am going to use for design for 3D printing yet, my biggest problem has been that I can’t seem to get the setting for a custom login screen image to stick.

So all in all it’s been pretty painless.

How to debone a chicken:
First, remove the orgasms from inside the body cavity and set side.
Wash and dry the children.
Place the chicken in the rectum of a live cow to tenderize for three hours.
Turn the cow inside out and remove the chicken.
Coat the chicken in a thin brine of jet fuel and dust with flour.
Tie the legs of the chicken to a doorknob with a line of dental floss and save for later.
Ignite the chicken and catch it in a 2 quart greased pan at 425 degrees.
The bones will slide out easily.

Hey guys, this right here is a super valuable point to address and really strikes straight to the heart of the ability of a system like this to give the illusion of choice. People absolutely will still think, despite this, they are still in control and we need to address it not dismiss it.

I’m undoing the downvote on this comment, it absolutely is a big part of the conversation, even if you think it’s naive.

I’m just starting out with Bazzite right now. Still awkward, but pretty painless, and all the gaming stuff like proton is already configured and baked in. I still need to figure out how to get stuff done though.

People do have the right not to make intelligent decisions.

Sure, doctors and lawyers have their obligations, but a victim has the right to nope the fuck right out of there to avoid additional mental trauma. It isn’t up to you.

In my eyes you forcing them to know just so you can sleep at night makes you one. You might as well make them watch footage and really relive it if you are going to deny their right to decide. After, you said they need the information of what happened to them. You just like your arbitrary line of where to stop. All I suggest is giving the victim that choice, and I’m the monster?

“Please watch the following 15 hours of video we found on your uncle’s laptop of you getting raped when you were 12 so you can understand what level of trauma you should be feeling.”

Vs.

“We found out some horrible things that happened to you as a child, do you want to know?”

One of these options is kind and also empowers the victim, can you guess which one?

it’s not a choice you are entitled to.

Just… Wow.

The true test of being kind is not just empowering others when it makes you feel good, but empowering others when their choice makes you uncomfortable.

Someone absolutely has the right to say “my life has been fucked up enough already, don’t tell me, I don’t want to know.”

The truth is you would take that way from them just so you can feel good about yourself, whether it caused depression, or suicide, or hurt. You would take their choice away because you don’t agree with it so you could feel “just” whether it re victimizes them or not.

Look around you, being informed is absolutely a choice. This place is a great example of people choosing pleasant fictions over uncomfortable realities every day.

Just because you think it is an unacceptable choice doesn’t mean it isn’t one.

Right, so the answer to my earlier question is “yes” in this instance your are anti-choice. Is fine, but own it or we end up going on a big circle to get where we should have been three or four comments ago.

And we could have had a conversation about that, but honestly, I’m just not that invested in the conversation anymore, it’s been a long day and I’m out of patience for random strangers who are more interested in being right than communicating.

I’m not talking about law, I’m talking about morality.

“we found out about some bad things that happened to you as a child, do you want us to tell you what we found out?” Is a perfectly valid way to ask for informed consent before doing something to them they may not want.

So you are arguing against consent?

Because everyone is switching from a custom ui to a css standard so they can have a web app that is also a desktop app.

To sum up, your app became a web page.

Generally, verifying signatures is a function of the Auditor’s office, but who knows, maybe the swat team does that in Florida.

There are no roles, only consequences. The real question here is what are the consequences, and we can’t know that.
