I think they chose to focus more on the human warmth and positive vibes, and, dare I say, normalcy, to contrast with Trump’s themes of hate and inhumanity that his campaign even seems to be ratcheting up in these final days.

He smirked at the compliment. “What’s discipline got to do with winning?”

That right there tells me all I ever want to know about Trump and how he sees competition.

Not an American, so I do not feel called out, nor do I care about downvotes from idiots who think Lemmy threads are here to be won or lost by getting or giving out good and bad points. :)

EDIT: By “idiots”, I didn’t necessarily mean you. Only after posting this comment I realized that it could be understood that way. Sorry.

Thanks, now that makes things clearer - on Wikipedia, I noticed this “if resident of a US state” exception for voting, but I automatically dismissed it as unimportant, thinking “eh, that has to be a very small fraction of Puerto Ricans”.

Thanks everyone for the informative responses - as a non-US person, I wasn’t aware of the intricacies of Puerto Rico’s unusual voting situation. 👍

Wait, I thought Puerto Rico residents cannot vote in the presidential elections. Even Wikipedia seems to think so.

That’s an odd way to misspell “young incels”…

Could we actually get both of those rich assholes into an arena and let them fight it out?

Even NY Times is starting to see the writing on the wall, and is starting to hedge.

So now he’s conning gullible seniors also out of their military decorations? If it was anyone else, I’d say it’s a new low, but for Trump, it’s a new middle.

And even that is debatable. Japanese surrender came shortly after a quick succession of several events - the first bomb at Hiroshima, Soviet Union declaring war and invading continental Japanese land, the second bomb at Nagasaki, allies completely obliterating Japanese navy, and preparing to invade their home islands, etc.

Many argue that Japan would surrender even without the two nuclear bombs.

Enshittification actually does work, but only up to a point. Unfortunately, all the corporations have all the subtlety of a Sherman tank, so they always go all in on it.

There is nebula.tv which works like that, but it lacks content. I am a subscriber, but I’m running out of interesting content to watch there.

OBviously there is network effect in play here. If Youtube switched to subs-only model tomorrow, they would have much wider content offer from the get-go.

With a topic as sensitive and biased against the victims as this, it’s hard to get accurate data - see https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/rape-statistics-by-country

As a Slovak person, currently horribly embarrassed for my own proto-fascist government, I wholeheartedly agree. We’ve had our chance, but majority of voters over here are mentally 50 years in the past and brainwashed by Russian disinfo campaigns. We really are gullible idiots.

EDIT: That said, it’s mostly just our government making performative noise for benefit of its voter base. We are not affected nowhere near as much by Ukraine’s current gas block as they want you to believe.

A bit of unfortunate wording there. :) I had to go back and reread it slowly in order to understand what you meant.

An experiment should be opt-in, not opt-out.

All through the same network, I’m afraid. I haven’t felt the need to separate it like that, although it should be doable using docker networks, or maybe on even lower level, via Linux network namespaces.

Alright, so it can do some direct syncs via Garmin API, I didn’t know that. Last time I checked, only manually uploading your gpx files was possible.

Neat, I’ll definitely set this up. Dockerized, of course, my little server already has lot of services on it, got to keep things neatly separated. :)
