He’s term limited so he won’t be running again for Cali anyway

Deadpool is like almost not a comic book movie though

I mean in a literal sense it obviously is - but his whole schtick with breaking the 4th wall and such is more like a meta comic book movie, and in many ways meta commentary gets better the more tired and worn out it’s target mainstream genre becomes.

There’s probably a point where it is so worn even a Deadpool movie is more beating a dead horse than comedic catharsis but most of us don’t seem to be there yet

Wayne and Stark are kinda both “what if billionaires decided to be good people” which seems to appeal to the American dream even if not the American reality

Though admittedly, they’re both likely less impactful as vigilantes spending millions on personal weapons tech than they would be if they like… solved world hunger or something.

…And even in a fictional universe with super powers we still can’t imagine billionaires even trying to be good without suffering through severe trauma first.

Think of it like voting to change the thermostat

Say you want 72F and neither candidate is close. Well, no party is going to think they can get away with running a candidate who is pushing for 72F when the existing options are 32F and 212F. A progressive party might think 35F is ok or even 40F but 72F? Surely they would just lose the election outright.

By putting in for the 32F team, you’re trying to bring the average temperature closer to 72F. If you and a few million like you start pushing together, the party will eventually start running candidates calling for 40, 50, 60 degrees. 72F may be a long way off but if you don’t move the needle the candidates never get better.

So for now? Vote for 32F, hand out blankets, and tell everyone else the end goal is 72F. Reassess if/when we progress if the best choice is still the cold team.

Do you even need to run the server locally? I’m still working on transitioning to Jellyfin but Plex would let you download media to watch offline. Just natively in the app, no need to install the server on the vacation device.

I think the point is you’re exaggerating how easy it is for the average person to install and use something like Graphene - people are arguing it’s less that Google allows it and more that white hats have forced it and I don’t think that’s an unfair statement. Like - I’m techy, own a phone running Graphene, and will have to look into the Aurora store - hadn’t heard of it before this!

Apple seems to be pretty privacy forward at the moment and it’s true that they sell hardware more so than software, and WAY moreso than user data. For people who can’t figure out something like Graphene, Apple is certainly a better choice than Googled Android. And I think that’s valuable to be able to tell people in this day and age even if Graphene would be best overall

Graphene doesn’t completely strip Google software though, it sandboxes it. You still gotta use the play store to install most apps for example.

They told a Native American to go back where he came from so, no, they do not understand.

Don’t bother with “do a job you love and you’ll never work a day” that’s garbage. Not only does it lead to existential dread, it often doesn’t put food on the table, and often times doing what you love for a living ruins that love for you to boot.

Get something you don’t hate that’s easy to find employment for - maybe accounting, for example. Think of things everybody needs, don’t get a niche specialization.

If you get the bug to go after something your heart calls you for later, you have a stable and well paying job to keep you afloat while you take night classes or whatever you gotta do to switch careers. There is no rule that says you gotta stick with whatever you pick first

I don't have anything in primary right now as I've been way too busy for way too long BUT, I just planted a bunch of wine grape vines. I know it'll probably be a while before I get anything out of them but I'm really looking forward to eventually harvesting! We've got 3x zinfandel, 4x merlot, and 4x chardonnay.

I'll probably end up making a pyment or two before trying straight wine - I haven't done a straight wine before and I'm more comfortable trying to sort out some adjuncts with a mead, so I think I can flesh out the flavor profile a bit if the first harvest or two doesn't yield enough for a reasonably sized batch of "traditional" wine.

What’s not working for you?

For me after a decade using -arr the only thing I’ve had significant issues with has been trying to use the Tailscale integration on Unraid 7 to tunnel the dockers through an exit node which is… not at all the fault of -arr containers lol

Honestly for the most part we need to not have HOAs. They offer very little benefit - if any - to most folks, especially in single family homes. I refuse to buy anywhere that has an HOA.

Maybe a slight use case in apartment complexes and such with legitimately shared areas, but even there HOA dues should be exclusively for repairs and maintenance to shared areas. They should not be fining people for their garden gnomes being an inch taller than regulation or any of that bullshit they’re infamous for.

And those apartment complexes etc probably don’t have the yard space for chickens anyway so they’re not really who we’re hoping to help in this context

Shit. Who do you recommend instead?

I guess I’m saying for now it makes sense that people would at least cross post

Folks gotta post here at some point to get the ball rolling but like, I found an aquaponics sub and posted there to literally zero response. I legitimately cannot use that instead of Reddit yet; there’s nothing to use. I posted anyway to try, just don’t shame me when I cross post the question back to Reddit due to silence here, yknow?

Reddit for the most part has FAR more active niche communities. If you’re mostly looking for Lemmy versions of subs that frequently hit /all you’re probably fine; but I also looked for subs like aquaponics and ROG Ally and found pretty much crickets on Lemmy.

For now, I’m on both, because some of what I want from Lemmy doesn’t exist here yet. But I’m participating where I can in to try and help populate it so it eventually becomes viable for niches as well

I believe it. I got warned and had my comment deleted for “glorifying violence”

I was supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods.

Let that sink in - I was reprimanded for glorifying violence because I supported economic protests.

What is an economic protest if not literally the primary, go-to alternative to violent protest?

Shiny yes!

Lucky, I don’t think so - AFAIK lucky doesn’t exist in any other Pokémon games so there’s no point really in tracking it.

I believe the event costumes and a couple other PoGo specific variations cannot transfer as well, but most stuff can. You could pack Pokémon into your Switch games if you don’t wanna pay for expanded Home storage

I only got warned but my comment was removed - I was supporting Canadian boycotts of American goods. Admin said I was “glorifying violence”

…I supported economic protests; that’s literally the primary non-violent option lmao

How’s the support for the Ally hardware in Bazzite? The controller, LEDs - stuff you’d m, by default, manage in Armoury Crate

I initially had a hard time getting accepted anywhere - couldn’t find any instances with open registration and the first few places I applied just never responded. I ended up applying to like a half dozen in one go and two of them responded so now I have two accounts. Lol
