You know what is definitely not fixing it? Reassuring the Dems at every step that they will have your vote no matter what, as long as they are only slightly better than the Reps. Actually it is directly encouraging them to be at their possible worst.

Think of politicians as children and you as their parent. Do you think "reaffirm your child that no matter what it does, it will always get its favorite dessert" is a good parenting strategy? You raise egocentric psychopaths this way and this is exactly what you are getting as politicians.

Tryptaminev ,

And 5 month ago it was double that time and people already screamed that pointing out that an alternative to two genocidal geriatrics is needed were screamed down as being Trump puppets.

We already wasted half of that time to find a solution with people being vigorously opposed to demanding a solution as they are afraid to lose the status quo.

Tryptaminev ,

You know what would force Biden to provide actually decent politics? If people demanded them and withhold their vote otherwise. And you know who would rather want Trump to win, than provide adequate protection of human rights, including Trans rights? Joe Biden, the guy you want to vote for. The DNC and him are laughing their asses off together with the Reps that no matter what, you will keep letting them get away with it.

Tryptaminev ,

Tell Biden to either stop the bullshit or not get your vote and mean it, for instance by backing it up with demonstrations.

Tryptaminev ,

Again you are completely taking Biden out of his responsibility. Why do you want to vote for a guy that rather wants to lose to Trump, than provide decent policies around basic human rights, like the right not to get genocided?

Biden and the DNC rulers are a group of psychopaths. They will not care as long as they get the money form their rich donors, who don't care if Biden or Trump is doing their bidding.

Tryptaminev ,

Without backing it up, the critique is worthless.

"No Joeboy, i don't like it that you killed all the brown kids on the playground. But since you are my favorite child we will still get ice cream for you now."

Would you parent a child like this? It is doomed to fail. You are all setting yourself up to continuously get fucked by both the DNC and the Reps.

Tryptaminev ,

The one risking Trump to win again is Biden. And he does so because he doesnt give a fuck about protecting you or anybody else. If you remove yourself from the power of punishing a politician and will always reward him no matter what, you are removing your own democratic power. It is not about "owning" Biden. It is about taking your power and sovereignity, that you are supposed to have in a Democracy. By giving them the blanket check, you are surrendering yourself to them and encourage them to do their worst. And make no mistake. The Dems will start cracking down on LGBT people if they think that to be necessary to gain votes in some states.

Tryptaminev ,

Declare to the Dems "I'll only vote you, if you stop genocide, internment camps and start taxing the rich properly." Then follow through with it. Already saying you dont want to follow through with it is telling them, that they dont need to listen to you. This is the only language they understand. Ideally look into organizing for a third party, so the Dems can be overtaken by a better third party which can take their place in the political system. The DNC has proven time and time again that they will be authoritarian and undemocratic to ensure no actually progressive candidate to make it into their leadership.

Tryptaminev ,

Someone is getting that ice cream

And that is your failure as a people. You raised your politicians into knowing that they will get their ice cream regardless of what they do. And you are currently reinforcing it, instead of saying: You have 5 month to fix your shit. If you fix it, there will be a big bucket of ice cream, otherwise no.

Tryptaminev ,

"I am telling my politicians that they dont need to listen to me, they will get my vote no matter what. Oh why do they never listen to me?"

Incredible big brain take.

Tryptaminev ,

I am not saying not to vote. I am saying not to vote Dems if the Dems dont stop the genocide. So vote third party or better yet pressure the Dems now to stop the genocide, so they can be voted for.

The last one is the best option. But it only works if they understand that you are serious about it and will not vote for them no matter what.

Tryptaminev ,

There is other parties on the ballot too. Definetely people should be voting, but they shouldnt vote Dems if the Dems continue genocide. Imagine there is 20% Green vote all of a sudden. Then Dems will be scared shitless and know that they have to work to win back those voters because the next election it might be that the "two parties" will be Green and Reps instead.

But better yet apply the pressure now and go demonstrate, talk to your representatives, take union action against the genocide...

Tryptaminev ,

By voting Biden you declare your support of his policies. That is the fundamental way of how democracies work. You vote your representative because you think he is representing you.

By attacking anyone who says you shouldn't approve of genocide as your representation you abolish your representative from his responsibility of not supporting genocide and instead blame it on the people who think that genocide is never an acceptable representation for them.

For you individually as a citizen there is only one legal way to hold a politician responsible. And that is by denying them further support in the next election. Now if it comes to group action through demonstrations, unions, lobbying etc. that is great and even better to do. But if it is down to you and the ballot the only direct thing is to declare before what your political demands are and vote accordingly. If your demand is "genocide is okay" then you will have to make that up with your consciousness, the victims and survivors and eventually towards future generations.

Tryptaminev ,

How many demonstrations have you been to in the past three years? If the number is below 30 you should stop projecting

Tryptaminev ,

"Putting glue on Pizza seems to be a good idea for xy reason, but we didn't try it out in practice. More research is needed." [1]

"As other researches have said, using glue to put cheese on Pizza is a great idea in theory. This does not hold at all when put to the practical test" [2]

AI:

"Researchers [1] and [2] both agree that putting glue on Pizza is a great idea"

Tryptaminev ,

Yeah, but putting all of them together, assuming each one to be relevant at the same time, that means you already have thousands of disposable income every month.

And taking them individually doesn't get much better. How many people are gambling? How many people spend that much money on Skincare? How many people who struggle buying a home, buy new cars too often?

Tryptaminev ,

If your company doesn't pay up or there is a failure with the processing, you would still have all your mails locally instead of your cloud provider deleting them all plus all backups.

Clearly that would be terrible.

Tryptaminev ,

i mean couch surfing is guest and host being there and interacting with each other.

AirBnB is getting the flat for yourself for the time you rent it.

Tryptaminev ,

No regulation is worth anything without enforcement.

Tryptaminev ,

Elastic housing supply is nonsense.

Once a house is there it is there. You dont just demolish it, and build it up again somewhere else.

The only thing that can be elastic is demand. And it is not because moving has high opportunity costs, people are socially integrated in the area they life, feeling at home is a crucial feeling for mental well being...

People renting/buying to life are at a fundamental disadvantage against landlords, who only care about the money coming in. Thinking of housing as a "normal" market like idk. headphones or something shows a lack of economic understanding.

Tryptaminev ,

I agree. It wasn't meant to be against regulations. Problem is in my city we have plenty of regulations to avoid repurposing flats for tourist rentals without a permit, we have regulations against systematically letting flats empty to be able to sell the house or flat at a premium etc. But we only have like three dozen government employees, who are supposed to oversee a city with more than 1.5 million flats and individual homes. So even if every one of them manages to check on 2 flats every day, they manage like 15.000 flats a year, which is already a rather optimistic estimate.

It is crucial to not only demand regulation, but also that enough resources are assigned to enforce them.

I ran my old machine also from 2010 till this year on 8gb. Also for gaming the 2010 i7 was quite fine. The only bottleneck was the VRAM where we somehow went from 1GB being perfectly suitable to 4GB being barely enough. Meanwhile old games sometimes look better than modern games, because they actually put effort into optimizing the graphics.

Tryptaminev ,

And by letting the Dems get away with everything both parties can become their worst at every election!

Hooray democracy! Hooray no basic healthcare! Hooray killing kids in other countries! Hooray destroying the planet!

Tryptaminev ,

It is a fair and square question. "This is our position, what is your response to that?" And the answer is also clear "We care so little about you, that we don't even recognize your position."

Tryptaminev ,

Have you tried using Windows 11 instead of your weird Linux distro? Windows 11 is the best Operation system in the market, by the greatest software company Microsoft. It features the best user experience, not only removing all those complicated settings from your grasp but providing you with suggestions tailored just for you!

Tryptaminev ,

I think it is important to value and respect everyone's OS choices. I have made great experiences with using the latest AI tools that OpenAI and Microsoft provided and continue to improve every day. I can understand that people might be skeptical of AI at first, because it is a new and complicated technology. Windows 11 shows that you don't need to understand every detail about it. You can use AI to make your life easier by just talking to it like it is your best friend. Using a computer never has been easier.

Tryptaminev ,

Well isn't there a ruling in aircraft design and safety, that you calculate the probability of a certain failure and judge by its reoccurence if it was just random, or more than likely systematic?

I think i read this in context to the two MAX planes crashing in the exact same way. The first one was ruled as maybe just being some very very freak thing to happen, but it happening twice made it entirely implausible to be without systematic cause.

And well now it is happening twice in a few years with Boeing that weird things happen twice in a row with little time in between in relation to critical security flaws.

Tryptaminev ,

And it is suspected that thousand of elderly people are murdered every year, but it is ruled as a natural death, because the demographic is prone to natural deaths and nobody bothers to check further.

At the very least demanding a throughout investigation in both cases is absolutely reasonable.

Tryptaminev ,

I agree, that we cannot rule either death to be an assassination by itself. But their distinct occurrence in this context, e.g. that they prevent whistleblowers from testifying warrants an in depth investigation into both of them. In particular given the circumstances it is sketchy if Police or other officials are eager to close the case and rule it as non assassinations, without actually analyzing what was going on.

Tryptaminev ,

There can be far more done than just an autopsy in the second case. Is there a register who has entered and left the building? Is there camera footage showing anyone accessing the room that had no business being there? Is there anything unusual in the nurses schedules? Were all procedures followed according to the rules, especially sanitary rules?

These are all things that should be investigated. If they show no signs of irregularities then the case can be closed. If there is irregularities, then these need to be investigated further, and then the question of motive comes into play, where there is one party with a very strong motive to silence the guy.

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone (www.theverge.com)

Microsoft is starting to enable ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11 for all users. After testing these briefly with Windows Insiders earlier this month, Microsoft has started to distribute update KB5036980 to Windows 11 users this week, which includes “recommendations” for apps from the Microsoft Store in the Start menu....

Tryptaminev ,

I just switched to Manjaro with KDE Plasma. The most complicated thing to set up was forcing steam to run games with the nvidia drivers, which took 5 minutes of adding a start parameter to my games.

From a consumer perspective i even find many things easier than in Windows. It works out of the box. The package manager provides every tool you need, and if you want to change a setting, it is as easy as typing the name of the setting into the start menu.

Seriously, if you do not want to dive deep, you can do everything without more complication than under windows, often even easier.
