  • I’m hoping for a small handheld unit that has cellular. As someone who doesn’t use Nintendo usually, basically a mini-switch2 with cellular that I can install my own os (maybe steam is, not sure yet) I won’t love it

    Edit: mobile is only mobile if you can walk with it, if it doesn’t have cellular, it’s a cordless phone. (Maybe I’m old, but cordless phones can’t leave the living space and work)

    I had my LG Rumor2 at that time, but that was just me. It fell out of my pocket going 45mph on a highway, survived… I opened a cooler at Sam’s club and the moisture made the screen no longer flip and die. It was sad, but I enjoyed every phone I’ve had… Each has their pink sun glasses. But I must say… Never have I sat a flagship on the shelf and just used a phone with a cracked screen that is only 1/5 the price till now. I spent to much time focused on what features were, and the last year I have learned what use is like. I see 0 reason to use the pixel 9 pro, when it maybe runs laps supposedly around this. I had to change settings to make my spouse (Samsung 24 user) even able to think that phone was usable. (She doesn’t want gestures, there are no dock buttons by default).

    Force quitting an app is like figuring out thermodynamics… As someone who studied thermodynamics. Rediulous


  • Kennedy is a huge part of the problem, but MAGA weaponizing/turning vaccines and healthcare into political topics unfortunately started long before anyone thought Kennedy would ever hold any position. Basically when Trump thought he may lose office his team tried to flip the script that the vaccines, he pushed for, and the lockdowns he started were somehow only because of Democrats. By 2022, near any conservative you talked to were saying Biden started the lockdowns and Trump never pushed for vaccines. And Kennedy wasn’t even in the picture yet for most people.





  • Probably, my questions would pertian to what wealth could you get a majority of the population to agree on taxing, and how much.

    It’s easy to say “I think we should put in wealth taxes” it’s hard to get people to agree that above $x dollars and for y% is what would be needed. Many Democrats would agree on wealth tax of 10% over $300 million. A lot of progressives would say that is far to little and to high starting entry, but if you shift those numbers lower/higher you would lose chunks of the population agreeing, and ultimately destroy the possibility of it being started. Which to be honest getting it instituted first, then modifying it seems like the easier thing to do, than launch i high enough tax to fix the issues up front. You’ll lose all the corporate democracts, and essentially have 25% voting for it at that point… making it a dead end



  • Hopefully it’ll shit itself eventually, until that day, it’s like living in the hate musk thread. Guys shit, will never have the warmth or depth to be a cunt, but really I don’t need to hear about the fucker every day.

    Edit: To add to that. Since this account was created, the man has amounted more wealth than the lower 50% of the U.S. owns combined. ~200 to ~500 billion. Yet we are worried why we can’t afford a fucking dinner for the family, and skipping lunch









  • The comical thing is that women don’t have the right to vote in the U.S., neither do men, they have the right to not be discriminated against when voting takes place.

    e.g. If Florida says they will hold a vote by the population for representatives, they can’t say women exclusively can’t vote. But Florida could in theory state they won’t be holding a vote for the representatives, and the currently sitting members of their congress will pick their representatives instead. Sign that into law and poof, they just legally removed 23 million people’s right to vote
