Democracy is unfortunately never absolute. That would be anarchy and we could never be so lucky. But yes. Less democratic than the United States by a little for all that means. But slightly more than Russia or China perhaps? Either way, its a cluster no one should want to be part of.
4D tiddlywinks and he’s still on zeroies.
They want one though. And that’s enough to get Donny dementia interested.
Worse. Salad tongs from the dollar store. Draw it out a little as they have to keep replacing the crumpled pair. Thinking he got a reprieve. But nope, always another cheap pair.
Fair enough. And yeah I’m not horribly opposed to them using llm stuff. It’s more of a hindrance than it is a real help anyhow. Much more concerning is their assholish behavior about it. If you’re going to use it use it just own up to it and be clear. Spitefully trying to hide or obfuscate is the behavior of someone who would try to hide or obfuscate data loggers back doors or other malicious code knowingly or unknowingly. Not something you need a higher risk of when you’re trying to pirate binaries.
In Orban’s last election he got less than 50 percent of the votes but 90 percent of the districts. If the same number of people vote as last time even a 20 point lead may still fall flat. Only a massive boost in turnout and disgust will see it through. And then we get to the real issue. His opponent in American terms is rather bidenesque. Not in terms of senility, but having a lot of the same uninspiring or awful positions. Having been a member of Orban’s party Fidesz. This in some ways is like 2020 in the US.
Have you checked out heroic? I’ve never really used lutris myself. But the devs behavior definitely makes me never want to try again. Heroic works awesome tying into GoG, EGS, and Amazon. Granted I don’t game like I did 30 years ago. Nor do I even pirate games at this point. I could, I just don’t feel a need or desire to. So YMMV.
Yep, it’s a wild thought. But outside of pressure and medium what’s the fundamental difference between a blimp and a submarine.
Less support of their government, more support of their infrastructure. Everyone’s government could magically disappear tomorrow and life would only continue and get better. The US government, the Iranian government, neither one deserves support.
To a layman this might seem misleading. To someone familiar with fluid dynamics it’s perfectly accurate. Hydrofoils are wings. And they generate lift. Just in a different medium than most people are familiar with.
If you unionize the location mysteriously becomes unprofitable and they have to shut it down leaving everyone without a job. If you burn it down, the location closes leaving everyone without a job. But costing the bastards who can’t spare the profit to pay their workers a fair wage Millions. The arrangements of the unions was never please please Mr Boss Man can we be allowed to live too. It was paying us a fair wage or you might wake up dead in your own bed.
These companies actively make that unfeesable. They’d spend the extra money to close the location. Claim it was unprofitable. And hire all new ununionized staff elsewhere.
I want to believe. His opponent is a piece of work themselves. And a former member of Fidesz. But despite only winning 45ish percent of the vote in his last election. Orban won 90ish percent of the districts due to suppression and gerrymandering. Its relatable but soul crushing that a possibly less shit person is their remotely other option.
Not just Democratic voters. People of all stripes who have a modicum of critical thinking skills. Which was why I didn’t participate in that myself. Just pointing out (correctly) who would win if it wasn’t the democrat. (I wish I could have been wrong) To the loudest most obsessed posters. Doesn’t matter who you voted for or if you didn’t vote at all. It’s your right. But I think we should all strive to be as informed as possible. And not self destructively manipulated as many were. I genuinely believe most were ernest, sincere, and extremely naive.
It’s fucking damning that the genocide wasn’t optional in the election. And still isn’t a deal breaker for national leadership. But without an actual plan to replace or remove them. At least not kneecapping ourselves should be the baseline.
The hilarious thing, many of the loudest people solely focused on criticizing only Harris actually ended up voting for her. But their votes could not offset all the people they demotivated from voting entirely or convinced to vote for Trump.
Democrats never need help losing. But they will always gladly accept it. They’ve never ever learned the lesson in the past 40 years and yet these people thought somehow they would? Make it make sense.
Doesn’t matter what language they want you to use. A purge is still a purge. This will 100% be used more to block and disenfranchise people than help them.
They certainly aren’t. They’re not even allies to themselves. But without them we have little hope of getting anything passed. And without us they stand little chance of getting elected. Neither of us would choose to ally with the other.
Okay, but that’s a very disingenuous framing of most the people we’re talking about. Especially on the fediverse. I 100% believe that someone somewhere made such claims but that wasn’t the common sentiment. No one was largely telling anyone not to criticize Harris and the Democrats for their stances. Far from. They earned all that and more.
But railing against Harris and the Democrats wasn’t railing against genocide. I don’t care who you voted for or if you didn’t vote. Honestly the best way to fix national government and national elections is to abolish them both. For most people the issue truly was both sides. Because it was about the genocide, not Democrats. And pointing out how the myopic focus on just Harris was not only counterproductive but disastrous.
No one was (generally speaking) telling you not to criticize Harris. Just telling you don’t let yourself be used by the petite bourgeoisie or the zionists. And asking what your plan was. For most people it was jumping without a parachute, and acting surprised when they went splat. Democrats and the people railing against the Democrats specifically both. And the Really tragic part of it is I know many of the people that campaigned against Harris the hardest. Ended up voting for her even as they drove Palestinians and other people into non-voting apathy or voting for Trump.
Definitely, but the sad truth is that it may as well be secret. Because our mass media failures either just don’t talk about it. Or claim it wouldn’t work here for racist reasons.
