Or they may like the little tickle of racism,or any number of other explanations... The point is we are in a bubble and have no freaking idea what they actually think, so plausible statements aren't that heavy of a lift. They may do as you say as well, but your may is no lighter of a lift
It "seems" you are wrong. I think they should go on the attack, and do that.
Who is defending? Not them, they are doubling down. Everyone else is calling the mayor and asking for a statement, or doing some vox pop with Haitians on the ground.
Nobody is talking about anything right now except the memes around cats and dogs. You and I, we agree it's racist, but independents may buy this hook without thinking it's racist. We agree that everything coming out of his mouth is lies and garbage, but independents are much more neutral and are willing to give him, the former president, the benefit of the doubt. They probably are thinking, wow, things have gotten bad in Springfield, instead of haha what a crazy old man who lost the debate. They aren't thinking about swift because this cat thing has completely flooded the zone. This is what Trump did all for years
The topic does not matter.
The assertion at hand does not matter.
Whether anyone believes the assertion does not matter.
The only thing that matters is: Are you playing offense or defense?
Cuz attacking looks like winning. And explaining looks like losing.
That is a great series!
Swift, the crazy cat lady, gives endorsement, distract with crazy cat news. This is a distraction, Trump does this
It's a distraction, classic Trump move to get you to look at something else
People, remember how Trump presidency went! Bad news for Trump? Float a batshiit crazy thing to get the media to play with that shiny ball instead. This is a fucking distraction, Trump lost the debate, he is courting fascists, he is old and weird and people leave his rallys bored, he had to throw a stink bomb
It's an opinion piece, not representing the nyt
I know some Estonians, they could do it while black out drunk
Then what? Let us not fall into the Iraq trap
I honestly didn't understand the media timing. It seems like it would be more effective to wait until the bump from the debate was over, then do the swift bump to keep the beat
Did nobody notice the moment when he tried to silence her and added, 'sound familiar' to make some sexist remark about telling women to shut up? "I'm talking now, sound familiar?"
She said her name to him, which was a nice move. He never said her name, or looked at her the entire time. That is actually weird, it's like he knows if he does, he will freak
I know someone in Georgia who says she will vote for Trump because she doesn't trust Kamala. I get not trusting politicians in general, but when in that situation, you don't throw everything at the one guy who you can actually trust to fuck everything up. I'm honestly confused how she can rationalize that.
That hasn't been a reason the US has used in the past...
Another article just picking some random Twitter posts and turning that into news
They let him respond, but then make Harris talk about something else... Journalists are already reporting that they have given him 30% more time, up to nine minutes more so far
He said 'sound familiar' when he told her to shut up
I am getting a regular feed of news, which is nice, but I need more variety and some suggestions of good lemmy communities, what are some that one must be subscribed to?
!hackernews@derp.foo used to be a feed posting things from the orange site. It stopped 3 months ago. Does anyone know how to get it back in action, or is there another somewhere else I can subscribe to?
When I turn on my headphones, my oled deck turns on. Neat, but unwanted when I'm using my headphones for other things, like my zoom meeting for work causing Dave the Diver sounds to come out of my headphones. How can I turn that off without disabling Bluetooth every time I put the deck to sleep?
Now that I have my new Oled, I'm wondering what would be good video settings for BG3. I can set the preset to ultra and it seems to offer no performance problem, but I wonder if vsync fsr2 etc should be set? How can I get the most amazing BG3 setup?
I've been trying to sell my deck (64gb, like new, only 3 months old) for a couple weeks now. Marketplace, Swappa, OfferUp... But I get zero bites. It's in excellent condition, with screen protector and no controller drift and I've priced it lower than others I've seen sell. I have pictures of all sides, with it on and showing a game. I'm wondering what I need to do to sell it, what am I missing?
I want to get the new deck, but unload this one first, it's more than $100 cheaper than I got it for which means way less than the new decks are going for.
Any suggestions? Or is nobody buying used decks now?
I had this on my wish list from ages ago, it's on sale for $3.99 now, which is super cheap but I'm not sure if it will work on the deck, or if the game is even worth my time. I've already got five other games in the pipe, but if this is really excellent and works well on the deck then I might get it. Thanks for any insight
Hi folks,
I'm looking for a current, and good, Steam Deck guide for BG3 settings. I've read a number of people saying they have great performance and quality and they applied settings from a guide, but I've failed to find such a guide. I did find some old settings from pre-launch, but no "guide" per-se.
The Diablo 4 guides were all over the place and easily found, but I am flummoxed why I can't find them for BG3.
Thank you for such a great app
I know you all are dealing with DDoS and how that goes. I run DDoS mitigation for some juicy targets and do a lot of on-call response to handle those issues, so believe me when I say I know what you are dealing with.
However, that being said, it appears you are blocking tor exit nodes with a 403, likely at your web termination point (nginx, apache, whatever), and this kind of sucks.
I get that tor can bring some attacks, and I fully support a modulated response to those attacks, preferably one with a reasonable time decay, but please don't just block all of tor
Alternatively, be one of the cool kids, and setup an onion service for lemmy.world!
Because there is a character wipe with the new season, if I'm close to finishing the campaign, should I just focus on that and get all the altars, and avoid everything else? I don't see much point leveling up and planning out my character build and obsessing over equipment if it's all going away in a week.
I just bought Firewatch, always wanted to play it and the sale price was really good. It's also rated as confirmed on steamdeck, but it won't launch for me. Does it work for others? Any idea of what I can do, or support I can get for it? Or should I just request a refund and be sad?
I got the Sacrifice aspect from a dungeon and it looks pretty nice for my Necro blood build, but I'm afraid to use it. It will only apply to a weapon, and my current weapon that I want to keep is legendary, with an aspect I imprinted on it (blood surge echo, means I get a free blood surge effect every time I use it). If I imprint Sacrifice I will lose this imprinted aspect, and I cannot remove it, if I understand correctly. Is that also the case with the aspects I find when completing a dungeon? I'm going to need to replace this weapon at some point soon, when I get a better one, but I don't want to lose the aspect...
