There's definitely incentive for that from both candidates. If they talk about how ahead they are in the pills, people will neglect to vote. If they talk about how they're behind, then it's a foregone conclusion and people won't bother to vote.

If they preach about how close the polls are then it gets people worried enough to actually turn out and vote.

At this point I only seem to hear about polls directly from candidates or PACs so it's hard to know what the biases are.

Escape incel culture with this one simple trick! (tm)

It seems like incels, or at least Tate-holes, treat every conversation as a challenge with the reward being sex.

Just be friends with people. Who fucking cares if you end up in a romantic relationship, allow yourself to form close intimate friendships that aren't physical.

Go outside. Not in a "go touch grass" way. Explore new places and fill your days with variety and sunlight if you can. If you can't make the time pass quickly you can at least make it more interesting. And sitting depressed in a park is a lot nicer than sitting depressed at home.

If you're already running, vary your route a bit, or spend some time in the middle of your run sitting outside for a bit.

I don't expect it to fix anything, I've heard enough of the "just try this and you'll feel better" bullshit. But I hope it would at least help mix up your days a little.

USB OTG on android phones is severely underrated.

• I can plug in a USB drive and transfer files around, I've used this to manage my retro handheld SD cards before.
• You can tether your hotspot over Ethernet to your computer with an Ethernet adapter.
• You can plug Ethernet into your phone to get faster connections.
• You can plug a mouse into your phone and get a cursor on screen. Not super useful tbh, but kinda cool.
• You can use your phone as an external webcam for your computer.
• It's a bit more annoying than it used to be but you can use your phone as a universal IR remote with a small adapter and free apps (I miss my built in IR blaster from my S3).
• I haven't used it much, but I can plug in a RTL-SDR dongle and get aerial TV on my phone, or a radio spectrum analyzer. I used it to discover that my garage remote is about to die and that's why my car's garage button won't learn the signal.
• USB (or Bluetooth) game controllers just work.

Definitely a relatively niche usecase but I have SSH clients, terminal apps, RDP remote access clients, and other networking tools as apps on my phone for quickly messing with things. Very helpful to not need to bring out the PC when I'm fixing my network.

The ability to VPN into my home network to access my NAS. Honestly being able to access my NAS in general is already great for backups or just so I don't have to think about what's physically on my phone.

With a cheap Bluetooth device I can connect to my car's diagnostic port (ODBII) and check engine codes. No more trips to the mechanic just to get it diagnosed.

WiFi direct cameras are a great addon too. I have a wifi endoscope (camera on a long bendy stick) for inspecting inside walls and my phone works as a screen for it.

And each type of communication needs it's own switch. Don't let them pull some BS trying to make you enable all the hardcore tracking via a cell network just because you want to connect to Bluetooth.

Cool. Now all of Google Drive is blocked because one guy hosted a movie there for a few days.

Don't salt your food before tasting it, it's insulting to the chef/cook since it looks like you don't trust their cooking.

There's a popular story of someone being taken to a restaurant for an interview with their potential boss and the candidate being rejected because they salted their food before tasting it. The interviewer took it to mean the candidate wasn't trusting, was opinionated, and didn't respect the food or the chef and they didn't get the job.

At least in very dramatic extremes, yes there's at least a correlation between horrific animal abuse and psychopathy.

No idea if that extends to more run of the mill actions.

That's what sold it for me.

I don't mind if reddit wants to make some money on their API, but giving app developers barely a month to respond, having insanely high prices, throwing away the relationships they built with app devs, and not responding to community feedback around the issue at all was all too much.

But would this policy actually prevent that? A vandal in a community of 100 people would only be charged 1% of the repair fees (assuming they aren't caught), seems like a meaningless disincentive for them.

And forcing community members to self-police or be charged fees is asking for trouble.

It's also part of the reason why maintenance budgets exist. The condo board/government/etc should be responsible for factoring in the risk of vandalism repairs into their budget and spreading that cost over time. That's why they exist.

At the end of the day it's my dues/taxes that pay it either way, but I shouldn't get stuck with a surprise assessment unless it's a major unexpected repair.
