Nope, some game called "IfSunSets" that I'm not going to try 🤷

Biden BARELY beat him the first time around and conditions are WORSE this time around:

1: The electorate has a ridiculously short memory and aren't currently suffering from Trump being president.

2: Related to but distinct from 1, Biden's main strategy of "at least I'm not the other guy" is much less effective for an incumbent than a challenger.

3: Biden is currently alienating a large part of his own base by supporting two seperate genocides (Gaza and Yemen), one of which Democrats actually care about even when there's a Dem president.

Don't get me wrong, I REALLY want him to win since he's by far the lesser evil, but for the above reasons and others, there's a significant risk of him actually losing if the traitor isn't disqualified as he should be

Damn you! Now that abominable song is stuck in my head and probably will be for the rest of the day! 🤦

I like that the article consistently refers to Meta as what it is, an adtech giant that also runs social media platforms rather than the other way around.

Serves you right for not trusting in his self-righteous suicide!

I was in a band called Conceptual Disappointment. We had excellent stage design, but the music was mediocre at best.

material value

I think that's the point that they're making: it's supposed to be about which object of immense EMOTIONAL value would make people the happiest, and then a lot of people make it about their material value in stead.

As much as I understand their disappointment, though, Lemmy of all places is so full of nerds and geeks (said with love as a geek myself) who know a lot about technical stuff that it was pretty much bound to happen..

VikingHippie , 6 months ago to Memes in Recursive authentication

Fun fact: when my country transitioned to a new public authentication app, the default way was to use your passport to register. My passport was expired, though, so I had to show up in person with my birth certificate and social security card equivalent.

To get my birth certificate, I had to show up at the local office with, you guessed it, my passport.

Lucky for me that they accepted it in spite of being expired (none of the pertinent information such as my face, name and birth date had expired, after all), or I would probably be trapped in the loop to this day, years later.
