100% this, realistically Windows has a better OOTB experience. Ubuntu is now second place in my opinion as they did a lot of work making the installer work seamlessly with most hardware. I don’t have issues with Ubuntu unless I do something stupid, which is less frequent given my knowledge base is a lot better and I can do the basics reasonably well.

Huh, they love to confirm how weird they actually are! So bold of him to assume people wouldn’t side eye or call him a fucking freak for this ‘the call is coming from within the house’ shit.

ROFL Owen is a thick-skulled fool. I am glad that Destiny owned this dude and called him out on his bullshit. I’ll have to watch the whole video.

I should, it wasn’t the most immediate thought in my head; Republicans openly court the wealthy for donations, while most Dems (there are a few outspoken individuals that try) fail to curtail the power wealthy people have in US politics. Wealth Class is certainly a good addition to my list of criteria, as those who are less wealthy and are outright poor often have no voice in the political space. Unless they really create a proper spectacle which can’t be ignored.

THIS, 1,000%! Third Party doesn’t have a huge presence in the USA, only because people don’t do the work to get it there. It requires a lot of work that should be done just after the new sitting president is elected. Building a recognizable platform with proper support takes a lot of effort. It would be worth it, though, to truly support the people in ways which a two party system cannot. Holding the President and other people in power accountable with sensible words and meaningful action would get a party to gradually become a household name.

After I vote for Kamala, this is what I will be looking into. Finding a third party (one with aims to support everyone, no matter gender, sexuality, etc).

This is such a huge yikes, it will take more than employees raising their concerns to stop this. Outer and Inner forces need to be leveraged to stop OpenAI from doing super shady shit. At this point, I feel it’s more about harm reduction than stopping harm from happening, as this company is sketchy as fuck. I’m concerned that Sam may have done things we’ve yet to hear about…

It’s cute that these MAGA fools think that peace is something that Trump could bring into existence, as his life has been purely chaos and disruption. Kamala is the sane one; the orange one is so terrifying! ROFL

This is a fact that I wish more humans embraced. We are all different, we can’t help but be born as we are physically or who we’re attracted to. We can only choose to make better choices for the world and those around us!

While it’s true that the Palestinians don’t support members of the LGBTQ community as a whole; Letting them be killed by Israel without speaking up or advocating for a ceasefire is a bad thing in my opinion! As a gay man, I don’t support Israel’s choice to successfully carry out a genocide for the sake of slaking their hatred. It’s inhumane and would only prompt other dubious, morally bankrupt individuals to violate the social contract by organizing a genocide of their own. Israel needs to face the consequences of their actions, not only for the sake of those in the Gaza Strip who are suffering in inhumane conditions; also for those who would be made a target for a genocide as well and are barely protected by the social contract.

Kamala is highly meme-able; with her effort and a capable team, they’ll drown out those Trump cultists and get uninformed voters on her side. If only that old, weird narcissist would just become an irrelevant creature sooner.

Before I had access to the internet; These were basically my, ‘Don’t die, eat something easy’ list of relatively quick foods back in the darkest, deepest depression days (turns out my brain chemistry reacts horribly to antidepressants and antipsychotics). I was just an anxious dude that didn’t know it due to being heavily medicated.

Standard Notes, Firefox, novelWriter are the ones I rely on the most for my daily needs.

Busy, a few days ago I had a boss battle phone call with Merrill Lynch to unlock my account, and it turned out I was using the wrong website (the associate on the other end pointed out they had too many). This was a necessary part of a process to fill out paperwork and provide documents for the written stuff. Today, I’ve got an appointment in the afternoon. A game called SunnySide that I backed on Backerit will be releasing on console tomorrow; I will be glued to my Xbox Series S for quite a while. Saturday, I’ve got dinner with friends at a new brewery. Thankfully, this is not the bad kind of busy.

I don’t mind the changes they are proposing for the Photos app; the current version annoys me as there is no way to sort photos by recent to older. For whatever reason, the oldest photos are on top while the most recent are in the bottom. It drives me mad, at the very least a proper chronological sorting option is very much appreciated. Everything else, I can adjust, since I don’t have a strong Apple Muscle Memory.

“It is satire, yes, it was very Onion-y. It made all the ‘quiet parts’ which Republicans used to keep silence before…Loud and Clear. If they had simply kept “unemployed” but deleted the reference to couches, I would’ve actually believed this to be true. As Fox News is highly falsified news, I wouldn’t have been able to tell the difference from their normal denial of reality.” My response to another commenter, I never said I believed it.

It’s a two for one special for that furniture molester! 😂

Haha, yeah, the MAGA can only see them as future workers instead of mere children! Also, the couches bit really extorted a chuckle out of me. The meme about JD Vance (not based on fact) is certainly penetrating the political discussion. As JD Vance is weird enough to make it mildly believable.

ROFL They are making him seem like the best candidate to me! The ‘unemployed minors’ is wild, it’s as if the MAGA don’t believe students are real. (to prevent future comments saying it’s fake, I want to say that I don’t actually believe this is real. I should’ve been clearer, to be honest).

Thank you!
