It's only getting legislation introduced. I'm sure you could find a nut job state rep in every state that would be willing to go along with forcing their religious extremism on the rest of us.

Well, if they can't use ancient sweeteners they'll use the newer ones.

💯 Spaghetti, linguine, and similarly shaped pastas are the worst form factor. It holds virtually no sauce, which is the highlight of most pasta dishes. Conversely, spirals, wagon wheels, and texas shaped pastas are great because they have very high sauce:pasta ratios.

It's been fairly well documented that elmo is a fake news superspreader on the xhitter.

Going forward, this is the way. However, there is a massive amount of usba legacy hardware like mouse/keyboard dangles, headsets, hubs, chargers, and other less universally available products. Just think about how long PS2 and VGA ports existed on montherboards.

RJ45 connectors are commonly a folding down connector. HDMI can be replaced with a micro HDMI and is often replaced with additional USBC to utilize display port alt mode.

Seems like there isn't any reason to play along with his horrible appointments unless you're 100% on board already drinking the kool-aid. If you're up in 2 years then bad picks will exacerbate the problems trump causes making '26 a referendum on trump which would be bad for any republicans. If you're up in 2 or 4 years you'll outlast trump and his ire won't mean too much.

Powertoys and fancyzones in particular has been amazing with the proliferation of large monitors. Saves so much time and effort to configure windows. Don't understand why it is an optional utility and not built into the OS.

Put it a different way: if both candidates are willing to turn a blind eye to genocide, who do you think you'd have a better chance lobbying to change their stance? One support a cease fire and a two state solution. The other doesn't think a two start solution could work, and that Israel needs to do whatever they need to do to get the war over with.

What does menu do? Also I think I hate function smack dab in the middle of the space bar.

Of all 59 presidential elections there hasn't ever been a tie. There have been 3 contingent elections where no candidate got a majority of electors in the electoral college:1800, 1824, 1836. The last one being unique because Van Buren got enough electors in the general election but Virginias' electors were faithless and wouldn't vote for him leading to it get shoved to the house where they handedly voted him in.

The rumor is that he was going to call Kamala a cunt but the Trump campaign vetoed that, yet approved the badmouthing of Puerto Ricans and black people.

I'd guess that major UI revisions are a big reason for average users. People don't like having to relearn how to do something or find a setting. If M$ implemented a legacy UI setting that by and large mimicked the interface and controls in W10 they'd clear a major hurdle preventing less technologically inclined users from upgrading.

Not entirely. An act of congress is all that is needed to repeal the Reapportionment Act of 1929 and allow more members of the house to be seated. Increase the number of house members from 437 (approx 750,000 citizens per rep) to 1093 (2.5x increase yielding approx 300,000 citizens per rep). This is roughly the same ratio of house reps to citizens when this bill was passed nearly 100 years ago.

A capped house significantly broke the balance between populous states and small states further in the favor of the small states. Ending this imbalance would move both the executive branch and the legislature to more accurately represent the will of the people.

Nearly every niche community I've joined has essentially died due to not having the critical mass of users to support that community. Hell, even look at the large states like California or Texas: they're communities with only a few hundred active users and maybe a couple thousand joined. Feels like the lemmy is mostly us politics, star trek, Germans, and memes.

The hole is the anus just around the corner.

It is also just one man. No parents, siblings, children, spouses like the Bushs or Clintons. No one is getting all uppity about politicians like Glitch McConnell having decades in the senate.

Even without looking at any specific policy you could make this statement with high certainty of accuracy. Democratic presidents have significantly higher job creation, GDP growth, and larger decreases in unemployment. Real household income gains are higher under Democrat presidents. Republicans have had 9 of the last 10 recessions start under their leadership, only one being under Carter. The deficit grows by larger margins under republican presidents. The stock market gains more under democrats presidents. The only metric in which Republicans do better on is inflation.

Then looking at the specifics of policy proposals we would see trump would destroy the only factor in which the republicans lead on with massive tarrifs, isolationism, and expansions of trade wars.

It was primarily settled as a farming community at the confluence of two rivers to support nearby gold mines. Prior to that native Americans had a fair amount of canal works to provide irrigation to agriculture in the region. At the time it would have been seen as good fertile land, free from rocks and boulders that was beyond the frost line prime for agriculture if they brought fresh water from the nearby rivers.

Well, if Biden/Harris let him win in '20 then he wouldn't have had to campaign in' 24 and thus wouldn't have been in an open field vulnerable to nutjobs taking potshots at him.
