I’m at the point where I’m convinced you’re being willfully dense.

Did you READ the original article??

Are you being intentionally dense?

Did you even READ the original linked article?

Seems like not.

Voting third party is the same as voting for Trump. THAT'S the effect that third party votes have. You're deluding yourself if you think they have any other effect in this upcoming election.

These days swing states are more likely to have third party candidates because in the current case, both third party candidates are supported by MAGA millionaires who want them to spoil the election.

If they aren’t the same in their view, they they would be sensible to care about which wins. They have a stake in a less harmful result.

But literally throwing away their vote on a third party, they are inflicting harm on themselves, the electorate, and the world.

It’s pretty weird to insist on a course of action that won’t result in something you want. If you think both parties are the same, you’re wildly misinformed.

This is mind-bogglingly weird. I’ll never understand it.

That’s not bright of you. You going to clutch your pearls as Trump is inaugurated?

How about when he carries you off to a camp?

Bet she also “urges” withdrawing support from Ukraine.

Last night’s CNN interviews with undecided PA voters made me want to weep for the electorate.

So many of them really were clueless.

I’m not talking about a long-ago problem. I’m talking about a current install of Ubuntu.

[–] Mpeach45@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I’m a very casual Linux user and in my experience, I’ve NEVER had a problem with a documented solution that didn’t require going down a rabbit hole of other references.

Something like this: “To get the trackpad to work with Ubuntu, make sure you’ve installed the hergelbergelXX package.” (No link, find it on your own!)

Visit the HergelBergelXX page. To install Hergelbergel on Ubuntu, you must install the framisPortistan Package Manager. (No link!)

On the FramisPortistan GitHub readme, we discover it requires the JUJU3 database system to be installed. “JUJU3 may cause conflicts with installed USB devices under Ubuntu” JUJU2, which shipped with Ubuntu, is no longer supported. Also we recommend Archie&Jughead Linux over other distributions.

And this essentially never stops.

All of this is comparatively a happy result—I actually DID post a question on linuxnoobs about getting my trackpad to work with Ubuntu… and have not had a single reply. I have no idea how to find out how to make it work.

 

I think I've done my research, but damn if I can find what I'm looking for in the US. Even talked to my installer, who had nothing.

From what I can tell, my sole option for V2H, using the vehicle's batteries to back up the house, is the Ford Lightning. Maybe the Mach-E?

In fact, what I'd actually like is a CAR. Not a crossover, not a SUV. An actual CAR.

  • The Lightning is WAAAY too much "car" for me.
  • Best I can tell, Polestar is only "testing" V2anything.
  • Kia/Hyundai only has V2L.
  • Volkswagen ID4? I'm unclear.
  • Mini has nothing.
  • Leaf has something, but leaf is too little for being useful in terms of KwH.

Again, I'm in the US. And I already have an Enphase solar install, so I can't totally switch to some other sort of turnkey soup to nuts solution. I don't have batteries for the house, and want a vehicle that can be that as well as a mode of transport.

I'm also not an electrical engineer, so what that guy in this forum who built his own rack of components to make V2H work with his Ioniq is not something I can do.

Any help?

 
 

I have tried this multiple times, and it seems like I’m missing something. Explanations are all doing a bit of hand waving where they say “put the account in the search field.”

What search field??? The one at https://lemmy.world/communities/listing_type/All/page/1

Because that’s the only one I can find. And it doesn’t return anything when I enter any version of something that would identify the mastodon account I want to follow here.

Help!

 
 

OK, I'm lying, I've only been upvoting.

But I click on something to upvote, the click registers, but then does not complete and the counter resets to what it was before I clicked.

I also notice very slow posting of things like this, or comments on existing posts. I've got a modern computer and gigabit fiber.

 

How do I link to and/or subscribe to this account from my mastodon account and vice versa?
