Nailed it - I'll consider a 3rd party vote on equal-footing once we have ranked/ranked choice voting in place. Right now, I think there's a higher probability for one of the two parties to consider this so in other words... it's going to be a while...

I'm glad people like you exist. I've cut down spending through COVID and have been mostly in bunker mode living well below my means and paying off my mortgage. I don't owe anything to anyone outside of land tax and some utilities. I'm late to the game removing Amazon from the picture, but my last order has already been made. What sucks is I thought after a few years of hunkering down things would finally get better and I'd be in a great position to move forward. I hope more and more people join this effort. I see this as being AS important as the 2nd amendment. The right to bare arms is useless if you have to fight an entity with most of the money, major parts of the supply chain, and all the intel.

Just last night I was going through all my subscribe and save items and finding alternatives. I stored them in a spreadsheet (LibreOffice). My last order is already in motion and once delivered that's it. Amazon is gone.

Other changes I've made or am in the process of making:

• FB + IG -> PixelFed
• Reddit -> Lemmy (lemm.ee)
• X -> BlueSky
• Tesla hasn't been on my wish list for a while -> Rivian or another alternative... wish I could say Xiaomi
• YouTube -> PeerTube, LibreTube, piped.video, invidious

Where I'm stuck and looking for help: What do I do for my next phone? Android and Apple are both at the table supporting this mess. Linux alternatives seem like huge downgrades at the moment... any advice?

Order a drone strike at or during a former president's funeral? I'm not following what you're talking about. Are we on the same topic?

Did you expect Obama (of all people) to be unkind at another man's (let alone a former president's) funeral?

C and A

I truly believe he loves doing this so no cost to him as far as mental health/stress goes. Sounds like you are doing most things right so that pretty much covers the 80/20 rule. Johnson is trying to live indefinitely without losing mobility or mental faculties. It's great that we have someone testing things out and adjusting when things don't work.

Someone should build a site that tracks all these metrics and promises from now on.

We're all getting cheaper gas, electricity, and groceries right? RIGHT?!

You don't have to respond at all if you don't want to. I think we need to challenge Trump on things we disagree with and sometimes that will mean going down to his level.

You didn't - that's why I asked you so you had an open opportunity to support what you meant...

You think they should let him say and do whatever he wants? Our judicial system did that many times and that's how we got more of him. I'm glad at least others are willing to stand up to him and call out his bullshit.

It's ok because everyone really needs a specific colored text message bubble. Apple will be fine.

You're an inspiration for birth control!

I'll be forced to vote in person if that happens (If voting even matters at that point). Fuckity fuck.

He'll do anything to have the floor.

Do it! Do it! Easy to dual boot and test it out. They have a great discord for any questions that come up.

Isn't Kaiser multiple SEPARATE entities? For example their multiple doctor/medical groups are FOR PROFIT and Kaiser (the insurance company portion) is NON-PROFIT? Complicated structure, but I've always seen and heard good things from Kaiser. Sure there are complaints just like for any company that deals with healthcare, but Kaiser always seems like the best option.

Bazzite has a standard build specifically for Nvidia GPUs. It supports back to GTX cards so your RTX 2070 will work. Source: I'm typing to you from my PC running Bazzite with a 3060 TI. The only thing this version doesn't support is the Steam gaming mode desktop environment. Steam the application still runs fine and all the games I play work. You can run KDE or Gnome desktop environments. It's time!

Nope. This is the correct response. Democrats need to relax, because they work too hard to craft intelligent messages while the other side calls them names like a four year old and sells ugly ass shoes and watches all while desecrating the flag because a billionaire asking for more money makes perfect sense to some people...

Democrats need to dumb down their messaging. Comedy vs the next president needs to be slapstick level with focus on doing makeup in the morning, eating McDonald's, and farting. Explanations for things like tariffs need to be laid out on TikTok so anyone at or below a 6 grade comprehension level can understand.

I'm here. I'm old too.
