Try out Voyager or one of the other iOS apps. I use it on an iPhone that’s older than yours (13 pro) and it’s always smooth and responsive.

Yeah, I was being sarcastic, but the people I was impersonating absolutely operate that way. I dare say it’s a big part of the Republican strategy.

Who has time to worry about money and trickle-up economics when there could be trans ladies out there using the ladies’ room?!?!?

This sounds like a way to get media companies and tech companies to fight.

Unfortunately I expect that they will both somehow win and individuals will be worse off. This is the U-S-A god damn it.

And all this after starting the conversation with “Maybe be accurate when you try to make your points.”

I’ve been daily driving Mint at work for a few months and I love it. It was painless to install, and I like all the GUI/DE stuff better than windows. It also has better multi-monitor support than when I boot into windows.

But it’s still Linux so all the techy development shit works great too. I’m always in the terminal, etc.

I’ve never seen anybody do Krusty so dirty. He’s just a depressed celebrity with substance abuse problems. Necessarily a bit shady, probably not a great role model, but there is a human being somewhere under that makeup!

Yep. I see that as a reason to treat people with grace and compassion, especially the innocent and disadvantaged.

And just to be clear, actual terrorists are in no way innocents. That is not who I am talking about. Nor am I arguing for pacifism.

Thomas and Alito retire and suddenly go on incredible vacations.

It just thinks you’re a garden variety redneck.

The “every accusation is a confession” rule suggests that he was on some meds to help him keep his composure. Definitely not any truth serums though.

What if you were born in the wrong place and your family got gunned down or buried under rubble because the enemy thought a hostage (or their dead body) was in a building at the end of your street?

You can’t always assume you’re the one who is both on a righteous quest and in possession of superior firepower.

Iirc, didn’t he give Trump a much higher chance of winning than other outlets, even though it was still a small chance compared to Hillary?

Those of us who pay attention and give a shit would vote for her, but Biden (or what’s left of him) already has our votes whether we like it or not.

But for the people who are disconnected or ignorant enough that they aren’t already itching to vote against Trump? They can be influenced by the dumbest things.

I personally agree that one of those two being President would be great.

But then I think of the cold hard reality of who I share this country with. All the people out there who, in the face of Trump being Trump, can somehow be undecided or unlikely to vote. They just don’t seem like the type to get off their ass for somebody who will be characterized as extreme.

We here know they aren’t extremists. We know they’re basically centrists within the larger civilized world. But ignorance is a huge part of the problem for the US voters who are indifferent enough towards Trump that they aren’t already lining up to vote for Biden or anybody who takes his place.

C’mon baby you know you like our big throbbing F-22s and aircraft carriers!

Seriously though, if we manage to reelect the criminal and he pulls us out of NATO, I trust you guys to keep it running.

Sounds like one of those rare cases where engineering and marketing might agree on something.

Have you tried Linux Mint yet?

I recently installed it on a Dell laptop (work) to dual boot, and it seemed pretty much as simple as installing windows.

I’m a daily Linux user and had been using other distros in VMs, but I still wanted to try it.

That sounds like a great plan for all types of media. We would better document our history and make so much human creativity accessible to those who cannot afford to indulge in what’s currently for sale.

Why do we not do this? Oh wait, it’s MONEY? Pfft, it will never happen.

Complains without solutions and distrusts legitimate experts, with a dash of “fuck other people.” So you’re just saying your FIL is a typical Republican.
