That's how you turn the boys and girls into proper Linux using men and women.

Even in European countries there are two dominant parties that work with others on their side of the aisle. In fact the concept of a left and right comes from France.

Polarization is universal in politics at the scales or democracy.

I feel many people are so privileged on both sides of politics that they have nothing better to do than to create their own problems.

Gnome devs have a nasty habit of "rethinking" things while ignoring tons of usability issues. I'd like them to stop rethinking things until they addressed those first...

You can't regulate automation to stop it. You need to learn to adapt just like everyone else who has been automated out of a job.

Good. I'm a conservative Wisconsinite myself, but the state senate acts like they're royalty, continually ignoring they will of the people and saying that's what we actually want.

See: Marijuana reform. We have millions, possibly billions in taxes going to other states and state republicans claim the people aren't ready for it, even though something like 70%+ of the states population is in favor of legalization.

Meanwhile we have almost all of the top 50 counties in the US for alcoholism. But ignore that, weed crime is the real issue apparently.

We need the state congress to accurately represent the people, not this corrupt bs we have now.

Are people really surprised by this? Trump was indicted for January 6th just before an election year. I don't condone violence, but it is prone to happen a lot between now and November 2024. Depending on the outcome, there'll probably be a lot of violence immediately after November 2024 as well...

Goodness help us.

Talking about bringing manufacturing jobs back to the Midwest is a very big one here. Whether or not it actually makes economic sense to do so doesn't matter, the fact is he's saying it. People want to hear that.

I didn't give a solution, just an observation. People are willing to be forgiving since they feel Trump is working for them more than establishment politicians are.

Regardless of what you think of it, populism gets votes.

Yes. This is the power of Trump's populism. It's astounding that coastal Americans still don't understand the suffering Middle Americans are going though that continue to lead to these extreme candidates on the right, but here we are.

Micheal Moore was right.

 
 
 

I can't see any comments from beehaw users, but the new posts from beehaw subs still show up when I sort the frontpage by "All" communities.

Am I miss understanding something here?

 

My ex from Norway mentioned how unusual it was that so many places and people here fly our flag (USA), so I was curious to hear what it's like for others here on the fediverse.

 

I have a modest home server that has a fiber connection. I'm worried about how much space it will take to a host an instance when I will literally be one of the only people using it.

Thanks!

Edit: found a very relevant discussion on this.

iOS App? (lemmy.world)

Is there an iOS app that is actually on the app store yet? I know matrix has element, and mastodon has its own app.
