I'm down for that. I've been celebrating it since I saw it

You can delay messages to yourself with Signal if you long-press the send button. I also run my own email server, and schedule messages in the future to remind me about things.

Voting for Dems demonstrably hasn't helped. It would be a good idea to try a different tactic

There was a candidate against it. If you'd had paid attention at the time, you would have noticed that. Also, voting against something is actually the opposite of voting for it.

I will not, as I voted against it, which is more than the Democrats can say

I always read it as "It's not a big deal, as long as it's my team doing it". See also: Sending immigrants to torture prisons, rape, caring about corporations more than people, suppressing the working class, war, etc.

Advertisements are an attack to manipulate me and change my behaviour. I don't tolerate them at all. They also ruin the product, because it eventually becomes more important to cater to the advertisers than the users.

If Youtube went back to how it was originally (no ads, downloadable videos, creator-controlled, etc), I, and many others, would happily pay them even if we could get the content for free (see Patreon, or GoFundMe, or PornHub, or Imgur, or Reddit, or many other sites as examples).

You mean the genocide that Harris said that she was going to support?

It's always amazing to me that Democrats get mad at people who couldn't stomach voting for genocide, instead of getting mad at the people who ran a pro-genocide campaign.

No, it's when almost every example is of liberals doing that same thing that makes it an example of liberalism

They are run by self-declared liberal democrats. These benches were put in place under their administration.

Every "liberal" city that I've lived in has had these, or a variant. So I'd have to say yes, it is liberalism in action

It does dark-theming with config.set('colors.webpage.darkmode.enabled', True), and I run it with JS turned off by default. That gets rid of the vast majority of ads for me.

In the Bobiverse books, a guy uploads his brain into a computer. He then spends years flying accross space, because it takes years to get anywhere. I've often dreamed of having a few decades just to work on my fun personal projects, uninterrupted.

I'd guess that the stats were thrown off every small business that has an annoying TV blaring in the background

The struggle is real

FreeBSD! It's so simple, and so reliable

Reading the whole Bible (not just the feel-good parts) is what did it for me!
