I feel like most people here use ublock origin already so should just use that JS blocking in that instead of adding on noscript.

Because it's ubiquitous, allows headphones without needing charged, and allows movement around the jack as opposed to the USB c port.

It's a great design and the best part is that if it's included it doesn't preclude anyone from using Bluetooth headphones if they so choose.

The truth is there would be more incidents of people fighting back if all the people here actually stood by what they say.

Notice how there isn't. Talk is cheap and this place proves it.

The truth is- youre exactly right. People don't stupidly sacrifice themselves knowing there is no popular pushback. And at this moment there is not that popular notion that things need to be overturned.

Yep. Those of us paying attention realize that 1/3 voted for the fascist, 1/3 for Harris and some progress, and 1/3 didn't bother to care because they're lazy and didn't care.

The only way the tide turns is convincing 2/3 they have to either vote at all or change their affiliation, which is a huge ask given the problem here.

If theyre in, let's welcome them. Let's fix it.

Same. This is easy for me and great for the best browser. Better late than never.

She's almost cartoonishly evil yet is reelected all the time. Both crazy and impressive, in a terrible way of course.

Honestly, those are important arguments and people would be wise to make them.

Outside this bubble that kind of talk is very accepted and desired. Convincing people it's better for the economy, starting a business doesn't risk losing healthcare, businesses now don't need to waste time and money picking health insurance plans, etc. Are all valid arguments and would only help achieve the end goal of universal healthcare.

Nitpick- that is the deficit, not the debt. Like elsewhere said, debt is near 40 trillion.

Otherwise I still agree with the suggestion.

I see absolutely zero "praising" of any kind but great job making a strawman and then attacking it.

Yes, blame cyclists instead of the people piloting 2 ton killing machines. Heaven forbid they be safe around other road users and pedestrians don't have to fear being seriously injured by cyclists.

For some reason it's better to you to inconvenience cyclists who already have a longer commute to make it even longer instead of some comfy driver who can stop and start with nary any physical input.

And no, the safest choice is to redesign our society for PEOPLE and that means roadways which accommodate all vehicles and heavy fines and actual punishment for drivers who put everyone in danger.

Almost like people should've been doing this to begin with. Almost like they should be doing it now.

I do love the down votes for stating it though (not you.) People always seem to dislike that progressive ideas apparently are not a silver bullet and resent the idea that they might not be as popular as they think.

Maybe if people did the simple things we could avoid having to have a full on revolution. Just a thought. Maybe simple actions should be priority number one alongside protests, etc.

And I fail to see how the Almighty DNC could stop thousands of progressive candidates across the country, especially when the turnout, again, is so low.

Maga zealots and hard right nut jobs put in the simple work to take over the Republican party but it always seems amazingly hard to imagine progressives doing that with the Democrats even though mamdani did exactly that by getting just a bit more turnout in the primary.

I mean, I'd argue the absolute lack of participation in primaries is the problem. In general complaining but doing nothing is the problem.

 

What a saga. Feel bad for the players. And apparently LSU didn't learn anything from Brian Kelly.

 

Go Muskies!

 

It's delicious fyi

 

Anyone else hate this? I don't want a dumbed down bar. If Im on the homepage, I want to know. Same as if I'm on a subpage.

This is in reference to Mozilla changing the URL to ALWAYS show only the domain. Absolutely terrible IMO. As for the double tall menu now? That is mostly fine.

At least give me an option to see the full url.

 

Unsure if this is the place to ask or not but figured it was closest to it.

Basically I am looking to make an AIO retro gaming PC. Main goal is to have one simple box hooked up to the TV so my friends and I can game without having to swap discs and consoles all the time. Would probably use mostly DS3 (or 4?) controllers hooked up with USB or via BT.

I know lemmy doesn't much care about piracy but this is all just to play games/consoles we legally own. Would include PS1-3, Nintendo, SNES, N64, Gamecube (think that is all we have).

I think https://batocera.org/ has been mentioned, Lakka (maybe this is more for pis?), and EmuDeck has been mentioned. Basically looking for the easiest distro to throw on a PC with a nice UI (can be launched via kb/mouse, all the same to me) that has the emulators built in and just needs the ROMs.

 

Even on an off year Xavier makes it happen.

Let's go muskies.

 

Basically looking for the best eggnog, German pastries, etc.

Used to buy hartzel? Eggnog but I'm not sure where it's sold anymore. Any other good places to get German holiday foods other than servatii?
