  • I disagree. Trump surviving the asassination gave him a huge publicly. It should also be mentioned that Biden resigned shortly after, so this event really shook up the overall trajectory of the election.

  • So what did it take for you to go to Linux?
  • Finding a good MusicBee alternative on linux. I just dual boot into windows whenever I need to convert FLACs and organize it. Otherwise I'm on Linux 99% of the time now.

  • 2005 Chevy Astro
  • Parents had one of these and we all collectively hated it. But it stood the test of time for 20+ years. This post brings back memories lol

  • Support your local libraries
  • Same! I find that things like listening to music way more fun. Oddly enough the songs feel like they last longer too

  • Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads
  • Not trying to troll or anything, but what can Chrome do that Firefox cannot?

    I've always felt like Firefox has more useful features like screenshotting, etc.

  • How to get started with pirating music (mp3s)?
  • FLAC is best if space is no concern. But when your collection starts getting very big, there are better options like AAC (which I use). It's a lot less space than FLAC and mp3, and higher quality than mp3 as well.

    Lemmy's how do you feel about Kamala Harris now that she picked Tim Walz? Will you vote for her or the orange?
  • I'm on the fence between Harris or to abstain. My opinion is that the Democrats are not listening to the people, and by holding hands with the international criminals in Israel, they are alienating progressives massively (no doubt her VP pick is an attempt to win them over). 76 years of pro-Israel policy, and what has it done?

    When it comes to economy, Harris is a neoliberal, and rather conservative economically, which I disagree with.

  • Nationalize it ftw

  • Dow closes nearly 500 points lower Thursday as investors’ recession fears awaken
  • I agree! Security is what the stock market should be about, not risk-reward.

  • Blinken says US has 'serious concerns' about announced result of Venezuelan election
  • Why is the US concerned? Oil companies pleaded for the US to intervene when Venezuela nationalized their economy. Then Venezuela nationalized many other sectors, and the US got morw angry.

  • CDPR says its new Boston studio means Cyberpunk 2 will be more authentically American

  • library summer reading challenge help!
  • Ministry for the Future is my favorite sci fi novel, and it looks like we read similar books so you might enjoy it!

  • Chinese fishing fleets in Indian Ocean accused of abuses
  • Not just China, much of the world's fishing industry is held up by slave labor.

  • What do companies get out of rewards programs
  • I've worked at Safeway for a few years and one night my friend who counts the tills showed me what type of info they collect.

    I scanned my own safeway card into the system and holy shit they have data on everything I've ever purchased using that card.

  • A broken man
  • I just had to wrestle with this issue for the last few days.

    Good news is my joker mask is arriving on Friday!
