A number of VPNs have anti-tracking/adblocking features, but idk how well they work – I refuse to use an OS with OS level ads, so I never see non-browser ads

If ONE emo kid had befriended him in high school and showed him how he could talk to girls about Death Cab, all of this would be fine… There’s a mirror earth where Rivers Cuomo is this in the W era…
I’d argue that’s more archeoconservatism, what Trump represents and what has reinvigorated the right is more a regressive progressivism – forging a sort of Dune/Handmaiden’s Tale future that resembles an idealized past but is more a SciFi future reimagining of it, and government has an active role in producing that just as in normal progressive progressivism because you need the government to drive the change.
The idea that actual swing voters, who are largely tuned out of 99% of available information, actually care about specific policies is overstated on all but a tiiiny subset of issues (which trans rights are not one of). Virtually no specific policy actually impacts electoral success on non-base turnout voting on its merits, it’s all campaign organization and media vibes, so I’d argue this is a false choice, largely. Nobody who isn’t already on a side cares about your platform, they care if you’re visibly embarrassed about your own platform (as democrats usually are about the 1% deviation from the GOP free market absolutism they dare in most cycles).
At some point you assume the dam must break with US healthcare profiteering, but they always find another way (which is why I wanted Obama to follow up on his 2008 primary promise to do Card Check for unions and not less than Hillarycare Romneycare bullshit he ran against the premise of, literally saying “if you could solve healthcare by mandating buying coverage you could solve homelessness by criminalizing it”)
At the point where the feds are paying Israelis millions to break your boot shit, they’re paying dudes to watch you type in your password or any number of other things. I’d argue as long as you’re not among the [number of prey] the predators are looking to take down at the back, for whatever category of shit you’re in, you’re fine
Our capitalist overlords are currently in a bind where they’d prefer all of social media is AI shrimp Jesus, and that is currently profitable this quarter. So I guess not actually a bind. Carry on.
Connecticut literally just throws out every write in vote. They provide the field, say nothing about it not counting, and then just throw your vote in the trash. If the Democrat got one vote, the republican got two votes, and every other vote was a write in for the same third party candidate, the Republican would win.

Yes. The Blue MAGAs on here mass downvote and/or levy false bot charges against anything that displeases them, including just straight news headlines.
Haha, yeah, if that’s not enough evidence, I have an inbox of these. I love people complaining this is a straw man, when this was 99% of all political content on here for like a year.
Not only is there no apology, the Blue MAGAs are downvoting as aggressively as when their God Emperor was still standing…
Fedora has better than Ubuntu/Mint hardware compatibility these days, so I’d argue it’s a reasonable recommendation, especially if the user isn’t going to need nonfree video codecs, but even if they do, adding that in Fedora is going to be easier than upgrading your Ubuntu/Mint kernel so you can use your video card that’s too new.
