I’ve had hundreds of GPUs, I’m a gaming hobbyist and help other people out, but I’m really super green in Linux. Lots of PC gaming fanboys out there with nothing but Windows experience.
I’m in my 50s with no savings. It isn’t lifestyle or marketing driven though. I just have had very few years where we had any extra. Also three teenagers and the price of food is killing me, cost of cars too. It’s just surviving that’s gutting me.
Living expenses > income. It’s not complicated math. You can’t save when you don’t have enough to live and already putting off things like car repairs, health care, hair cuts, buying clothes…
I’m no fan of Trump but one of these things is voluntary. If idiots want to choose to give him their post-tax earnings then I pity them but they should be able to do that.
The other is arguably a great benefit to society but is involuntary. We are taxed under threat of violence and have essentially no say in where the money goes. Our entire government is super broken and lawmakers very rarely make laws. Also why tf do we have to fund the world police? Our infrastructure is crumbling and our people are struggling to pay for basic needs.
$10 billion funded school lunches for a year during COVID and we should have kept it going. School kitchens are back to having to try to collect “lunch debt” again. So how is less than a fifth of that going to end hunger? This is just election posturing and empty promises. Look for more of these coming soon from the right.
Was just talking at dinner with family, and it seems a logical action to ban circumcision, as in most cases, doesn’t have consent, and is a major (genitals are important) body modification. Can we ban it at the state level? Just a thought.
There’s actually no mandate for non-Jewish people people to be circumcised in Christianity. It’s specifically made clear that it isn’t a requirement for “gentiles” in the new testament. But I have a great circumcised cock and I have no complaints. I’m still curious what it would be like naturally though.
Commercial eggs aren’t fertilized. Most backyard chicken eggs aren’t fertilized. It’s mostly homestead farmer types with roosters around their hens that have fertilized eggs. And that white spot doesn’t mean anything.
1.5% of the population has been killed. That’s a lot but 2% of the US died in the civil war, and far higher numbers. I know the wars are very different but larger numbers have also died in the current Ukraine war.
If they’re trying to eliminate them as a people they need to pick up the pace. Also, my family was displaced from their land in the 1900s and had to seek asylum in the US. Nobody called it a genocide but also everyone was mostly white.
“I will no longer be complicit in genocide [in Gaza]. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest,” the man apparently said before setting himself alight and repeatedly shouting “Free Palestine!”...
We’ve never had a numerical majority and never will so at least when we’re older they’ll have to blame the millennials and boomers for our messed up reality.
My father lives right around the corner from me and has been doing astrophotography for just over a year. He wouldn’t care for Lemmy. Would the community care if I shared some of his pictures and progress even though they aren’t mine?
A temporary lake at Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park has persisted for more than six months, which is far longer than it has lasted before.
When major wind patterns change due to climate disruption it can make deserts wet and warm places very cold. I think northern Europe could be in for a shock if they started getting weather like northern Canada has at the same latitude.
How about debates that are actually debates, moderated by an independent and not partisan entertainers? I’m no fan of Trump but those are all strongly Democrat supporters. If you’re trying to sway independent votes, biased moderation sours the desired audience.
Yeah that’s true about Bill Maher. My mistake was actually vision related though. I can barely read on my phone screen. I’m usually on a large monitor with everything oversized. But I can’t always have access to it. Practicing with talk show hosts is an interesting idea.
I still stand by my take on biased moderators though. If I watch a hostile interview on Fox I root for the person they’re against. If I watch a hostile interview on MSNBC I root for the person they’re against. They’re all shit but in very different ways, mostly. They’re all sold out to the ultrarich so they have that in common.
The parasite class includes the welfare class and the corporate welfare class. Not all of the poor people are working class and not all of the parasites are ultra rich.
