One of the more interesting polls out of this was whether voters were casting in support of or against a candidate.
86% of Mamdani voters were voting out of support of their candidate.
Half of Cuomo voters were voting against another candidate. (Mamdani.)
Voting against a candidate is a losing strategy.


It’s based on users sending in reports, and positive news for the left or news critical of Israel unleashes an army of rules lawyers.


Meanwhile pundits on CNN is calling this a ‘warning lesson’. Anderson Cooper and crowd fear mongering even through victory.


My understanding the media focus is about how bad it is that this was leaked and that the leakers are bad because it hurts the state of Israel.
Which is exactly what I would expect.


Bazzite is a vehicle for Steam. If your basis for using it isn’t ‘gaming through Steam’, you’re already intentionally venturing into un-average lands.
Cruz spent four years shitting all over California and New York, effectively handing these states to Trump in the 2016 primary.
But that’s also why he’s such an entrenched incumbent as a Senator. Texas chuds love it even if they hate him personally: shitting on coastal elites forgives all.


As a general rule, I am against defederation unless the instance is going to cause liability or technical problems (bot spamming, illegal content, etc.)
This instance in particular is closer to banning a user that is self hosting. It is closed, requires account approval, and thusly defederation will not catch any unknowing users in a dragnet.
So I think defederation is a reasonable exception for this instance, especially given the community vote in progress.


The premise is that a computer must never make a management decision. Making a program capable of management decisons already failed. The deployment and use of that program to that end is already built upon that failure.
A lot of work is just being available or waiting for next steps without losing track and focus.


It is a perfect baseline OS. It gets people connected to Steam faster and easier to Windows, which is the main access to most games.
Biggest obstacles to venturing out in Linux is the documentation for everything is not built or assuming normie users. The default assumption of competancy does not exist in Windows manuals.
But even so using Homebrew in Bazzite is no more complex than in Windows.
The beef jerky never complains.

If this is what it takes to get radicalized after everything that has happened thus far… well…
Glad you’re across that finish line I guess!


Windows can automount USB drives, so a flash drive can get inadvertently formatted, (or something to do with the bootloader, i don’t know the technical details that well.) Point is the automounting can break a flash drive that isn’t formatted for windows.
We got this thing here we call ‘charter schools’ which are used by private religious organizations to acquire public funding, which is redirected from public schools, to administer education.


Switched everything to Bazzite as a start. Easiest switch after figuring out Windows sabotages boot drives.
I may have pirated all my Windows but man it feels good to be off that ride. Spoofing corporate licenses for the authenticator was such a hassle.


And yet he is still the least genocide supporting candidate in the primary.
The bar is so, so low.
Just got one going on now.
An extended family group chat that was 99% baby photos until one person posted photos of their kids at a protest this weekend and then the chuddy trad-wife sov-cits in the family threw a fit.
They all left the chat and said they’ll only be reachable on Facebook.
Oh darn. All the shucks.
You fantasize about Hitler winning the war in enough detail enough times…
