I could beat them both with my invention, the megaspear

Right, there’s also a constitutional amendment saying insurrectionists can’t stand for office

Ok with me.

100k to 200k! Anyone have more pictures?

What was a time where you were doing a dad-ly duty and got it totally wrong?

Interesting tidbit I didn’t know is that they’ve found fungi growing on the outside of the ISS

Good to read, and funny enough timeless.

Well I don’t really expect someone in prison to win, but I don’t believe there’s any law about the location where the president gets sworn in. If a majority of voters chose that person, they could get sworn in in jail, immediately pardon themselves and off they go.

Eugene Debs, the must successful American socialist candidate for president, was at one point running for office while in prison. Of course he lost so I can’t imagine it helped

I hear you that it’s tiring and intimidating dealing with fascists. That said I don’t think it’s factual to say they only need to win once, and believing so creates a strategic disadvantage.

Factually, world war 2 is the classic example of fascists needing to win continually and being unable to do it. The Nazis had a good showing in an election, Hitler was made chancellor and then they used that foot in the door to take over the government and seize many countries. But they lost in the end, and that was a result of resistance, not just militarily but the sum of every individual act of opposition.

There’s a concept of anticipatory obedience. Corporations and local governments sometimes fell over themselves to do what they thought the fascist government would ask before the actual ask. Even if Trump seized power, that wouldn’t be the end. They need us to cooperate. And by resisting in a concrete way (not just #resist posting of course) we will stop fascism.

It’s never over. Fascism is destined to lose. It’s a question of how much suffering and injustice can we avoid by defeating it sooner.

And believing like they want us to believe, that it’s all over, is a strategic disadvantage. If we believe we’re beaten or that victory is impossible we’ll act that way. Believe that we can win, and spread that belief, and we’ll act that way.

He’s an inspiration.

She said to vote straight Dem ticket while at a really meant to bring out support for Harris. This article is intended to sow division instead of report in an accurate context.

I think it would have helped for the person who posted that to include context, but I would guess they were linking because it also talks about how Kagi isn’t privacy focused.

The linked post goes into detail about why the author views Kagi as not privacy oriented, and that in the author’s opinion Kagi is overly focused on AI. (And was originally started as an AI company)

I’m not familiar with all his policies, but he’s been good on gerrymandering which is my pet issue, and which I think is key to making progress on pretty much every other issue.

I’d say it’s been over a decade since I’ve had an issue where windows task manager didn’t work. Maybe I’m not using exciting enough programs.

Is there some Linux equivalent to “ctrl + alt + del?” I get that killing a process from the terminal is preferred, but one of the few things I like about windows is if the GUI freezes up, I can pretty much always kill the process by pressing ctrl+alt+del and finding it in task manager. Using Linux if I don’t already have the terminal open there are plenty of times I’m just force restarting the computer because I don’t know what else to do.

I didn’t come up with the advice, just relating what I’ve read a few times. So maybe that’s not representative of the current advice.

That said, moving downhill isn’t really random. Gravity is a universal rule, and water moves downhill. Humans for our entire existence have needed water for survival, and eventually for agriculture. So we tend to gather around it.

I’ve also read if you’re lost advice to stay where you are, but that’s in a scenario where you expect people to know where you are and to come looking for you. Probably a tough call to make in this case, plus the guy had his dog with him.

Specifics of this situation aside, I don’t think 20 miles is that hard of a push. I’d expect to be able to do that in a day or two.

This thread on mastodon is a nice summary of the case and its benefits
