I hope we can replace him. I wanted Garcia to win. Eric Adams is a fool.

There’s no shortage of things to make up, it’s their biggest strength.

Someone should just ask them to stop doing that!

The article touches briefly on it, essentially even though a minority wants these terrible policies, that minority are the GOP base and are generally single issue voters and religious. That minority has an outsized say due to gerrymandering. And there is also a feedback loop in this country where the GOP gerrymanders, they cut education and other social services, blame the “enemy” for the downturn in QOL for their constituents, and repeat. It solidifies the us vs them mentality that has these people voting against their own interests.

Obviously super simplified outlook on it since it is a very complex issue. Other people in the thread have explained better.

The reason they are able to do this comes down to gerrymandering.

I wonder if a government can actually do better at security. Not that corporations are amazing and infallible, but it isn’t like governments are known for creating the best software systems either.

Is it just me or is lemmy-ui broken in 0.18.4 docker image? When I upgraded my instance, the UI was not loading properly.

I think it’s inevitable that she will be stripped off this case, but I don’t know shit.

Her incompetence, purposeful or not, is staggering.

Something’s changed, but if we close our eyes and stick our fingers in our ears we can continue business as usual

Apparently, you have to live it

No truer words.

This is pessimistic but it seems to me that Florida is absolutely and incredibly fucked. It’s not even an uphill battle to protect the keys and Everglades, it seems unwinnable without absolutely massive and rapid global shifts, or am I just a doomer?

Prigohzin is such a slimy fuck. The deliberate irony of his statements would be laughable if he wasn’t so disgusting

Of course it is really terrible that people needed to flee home because of this senseless war. But it is good to see that at the very least they have somewhere to go to be safe for the time being, a refugee crisis it’s never ideal or easy to deal with for anyone involved but these people seem like they’re happy enough all things considered.

I’m curious what the German government has to say about this though. I wonder why they refused to respond to the author of the article

I both use subscriptions and watch what the algo shows me. According to a lot of big YouTubers I watch, their viewership mostly comes from people who find them organically and only a smaller amount of their views come from subscribers but sponsors like to see high subscriber counts as well as high view counts.

There is absolutely no argument that can be made in good faith to continue the bloated military budget. We grossly overspend. Of course the US should strive to have a strong military and national defense, but so much of the budget is used to line the pockets of political “donors”

Damn you’re missing out, one of the best games

This might not be a popular opinion, but I had a very short period of time between graduating school and starting work where I needed to learn docker and I found this course: https://serversforhackers.com/shipping-docker to be very helpful, they had a sale and I got the course and it taught me everything I needed in a few days.

You absolutely don’t need a course to learn it, but sometimes these can be easy shortcuts.

He doesn’t need a branding team, he’s too smart for that. That’s why he is also sourcing a logo from the Twitter community. Because billionaires geniuses don’t pay for anything.

I write data pipeline code and there is zero downtime. We use kafka to buffer messages from dozens of producers to dozens of consumers on kubernetes.

And the Republicans response will be to make it more difficult for college students to vote in their college towns instead of being less radical
