whether they will bother to vote for their preferred candidate or just stay home
It’s more like vote or go to work. I really don’t get why this country doesn’t hold elections on a day where most people can participate. Actually I do get it, but I don’t get how people can still think of the USA as a democracy
That is what I was hoping he is referring to. But if I’m completely honest, the “I will make myself King of Murica” approach sounds more realistic
Isn’t that exactly the reason for the second amendment? From what I learned, it is not to go to the gun range because it’s fun, it is to fight the government if it goes rogue
Don’t worry, eventually your parents will die and you’ll be able to live in the whole house not just the basement.
Only if you don’t have to sell the house beforehand in order to be able to afford a nursing home for your parents
I totally get it, why buy one expensive thing once, when you can buy cheap stuff that will cost more in the long run? 5 times 30 surely is cheaper than 1 times 150.
From my experience, there is just stuff where you don’t want to cheap out on. Don’t get me wrong, there is no need to buy „premium“ stuff when good stuff is about the same quality but cheaper, but buying cheap stuff, just because it is a little less than the good stuff usually never pays off for me
The motivation is to stoke fears in people that are against cannabis. For the conservatives like CDU and CSU party every change is bad. They even promised to illegalize weed once they are ruling again
Took me a quick moment to realize that wasn’t a typo. Nice one
Maybe you need to put your tv in gaming mode so that the refresh rate is adapted to the input. Had the same problem with my AppleTV
This is the only correct comment.
Memento mori = Remember that you are going to die Carpe diem = Enjoy the day YOLO = enjoy your life, because you only have one and you are going to die
I don’t. But I have never used it, nor do I intend to do so in the future. From what I heard I would hate it too if I had used it.
I think I remember reading somewhere, that people simply didn’t trust the washing machines and therefore didn’t use them. Adding a window made it possible to see what’s going on and build trust in the machines
Are you saying that if I had a kbin account instead of lemmy and mastodon, I could combine them two into the same?
He reminds me more of Iwan Rheon (Ramsay Bolton in GoT)
Thanks for pointing that out. I confused swappa with swappie
But never buy the like new condition. Good is better in this case. I once saw a documentary about swappa using third party replacement parts to refurbish those phones which have far worse quality than the original parts
Edit: I confused swappa with swappie and managed to find thedocumentary I was talking about (it is in German though)
Definitely. It is still in alpha, so nowhere near a stable release. I believe that in the next year or so most of the things will get ironed out
I don’t know what distros are available, but the big project everyone is talking about when talking about Linux on apple silicon is Asahi Linux
From what I read is that republican led states usually make it harder to vote than democratic states, but I haven’t looked further into this.
This whole process of voting in the US seems very outdated to me (I am from Europe too). I know that it is hard to fundamentally change the system as long as nothing goes completely wrong. Germany had big loopholes in the constitution during the Republic of Weimar too. Changing this was easy after the total defeat during the Second World War. I have no idea how you could get through with updating the complete political system of a more or less „functional“ country. Even less if the country is as divided as the US is at the moment
