He left a pile of animal carcasses at that location, what more do you want?

I'd just leave for a different bank at that point, although I get that it's not always practical.

ngl a unlocked bootloader would be a security nightmare

So, like a desktop or laptop? Sounds fine to me.

It's basically contrasting with Biden, who was less trusted on the economy than Trump. And that is likely because the average person seems to be utterly incapable of understanding that a president isn't a god that can snap their fingers and resolve global economic issues, and so they think that since interest rates were lower when Trump was in power, he must be some economic genius.

This is directly from Project 2025. This fact alone should sink his campaign but it’s one of many aspects that aren’t being covered by the media

There's so much evil shit in Project 2025 that the regressive taxes are the least of it. But yeah, might be worth focusing on it to target the "what about the economy?" types.

True, but there was a kind of Keynesian consensus for a while until libertarian thinktanks (and their media cheerleaders) started infesting the Republican party.

And being masculine while openly giving support to the less fortunate. Contrasting with the might-makes-right view that these alt-right "masculine" types subscribe to.

Vegan ice cream can be fantastic, so it's not just a dairy thing.

True, but being the only person willing to do something is kind of laudable in it's own right. Like all of the open source projects relied upon by millions that are sometimes developed primarily by one person in their free time.

Trump has always had the incel vote, so I'm not sure this would change anything.

He seems to have gotten more right-wing in recent years, although he doesn't talk about it too explicitly (maybe he was always like that and I just didn't know).

I remember him downplaying the J6 insurrection during one of the podcasts which was the point where I lost a lot of respect for him, and frankly him leaving isn't a big loss as he seemed to be just over election modelling in general by the end.

Popular vote does tend to correlate with swing state results as elections are pretty nationalised these days. It's just too close at the moment to make a prediction either way (and 2016 was too close to call as well, despite the rhetoric at the time).

If she gets to a 10+ national lead I'd start to feel comfortable. Less that that, and it's a tossup (although a smaller margin starts to become significant closer to the election).

Anyway, vote no matter where you live. If nothing else but to build the habit so it becomes something you don't have to think about.

Interesting contrast to this article on the same day:

Tech CEOs are backtracking on RTO mandates—now, just 3% want workers in the office full-time

Especially ridiculous that this is complete RTO too.

Hmm yes, shallow and pedantic.

You could try headscale instead, which doesn't actually pass much traffic between the VPS and clients (client to client is where the actual data transfer happens).

Or just test out regular hosted Tailscale to see if it will fit your needs.

I was going to say that librewolf has no declarative extension config on nix, but this does. Neat.

Another case is listing a huge number of steps to do some task, without acting describing what the end goal for each set of instructions is (common in "how to" guides, and especially ones that involve a GUI).

This means that less technical users don't really understand what is going on and are just following steps in a rote way, and it wastes the time of technical users since they probably know how to achieve each goal already.

There is a case to be made that people should be a bit more well rounded in general, and not just find a specific niche.

So non-technical people should still have a decent familiarity with computers and maybe be able to do some very basic coding. And technical people should spend some time working on their written and verbal communication.

Because in both cases, it makes people more effective in their roles.

Solution: 30km/h speed limit in cities, which is a good idea anyway for safety reasons.

It would help if cars went back to a reasonable size and not the absurdly large monstrosities that dominate the market today.
