I make software, occasionally music, and even more occasionally art and photos
I always hated the way this was implemented, there’s surely a better way than sending two giant bricks of text

It’s because (thanks to being the last place on earth still using FPTP voting) most local elections are not competitive. One party has a monopoly on regionally popular policy, and they’ll keep running the same candidate until they drop dead or retire.

It’s insane how long manufacturers just CBA to fix this massive and exceedingly obvious flaw. I’ve only recently seen washers that actually prevent it.

I feel like that could be solved with good article design

As of this moment, you’ve ratio-ed the original post, lmao

I still like target over Walmart, because Walmart as a company & place is the physical incarnation of all of America’s trashiest qualities, turned up to 11. But yeah, I avoid both almost entirely after their equity 180.

Why do polycules need any more mirrors than couples?? Like, do they think only one person can look in a mirror at once??

Interesting, I’d assumed it was called that because it was dead center on the spectrum of time zones.

Lmao. Telling the truth is hostile and political now.

Are new grads on the radar, or are these spots mostly intended for more experienced folks?

“New follow DMs” as if anyone besides the catfishing bots is itching to talk to him

“Nearly the 5th” as a way of saying 6th is some industrial-grade copium

Crazy how the mid-2010s had *less* clean energy than the year 2000. Tearing down nuclear power has been such a detriment to society.

I feel like you’re kind of arguing with an archetype you’ve assigned me to rather than actually addressing what I’m saying.

I don’t fundamentally disagree, but I’m trying to push the phrasing in a better direction - there’s a sneaky brand of anti-intellectualism that preys on the well-intentioned attitude against capitalistic influence on education. It’s a shade too easy to slip into “don’t stay in school” from there.

Wasn’t really saying it was to do with Trump, just that universities aren’t the villain here and are at worst passive on the issue - my personal experience is that the humanities requirement at my uni opened me up to a lot of lifechanging information.

I’ve always found the differential equation solving a lot harder than yapping about a provided subject for 3ish pages.

High schools maybe, but universities are frankly the only form of education (in the US at least) that are keeping humanities and critical thought at the forefront.

I’m pretty sure the 2005 Camry’s throttle controller had like 8 of those

It will never cease to amuse me that meta chose both “maximum realism and technical capability” and “fully in-headset hardware” as their two defining traits. It’s like an even more absurd version of Tesla dying on their anti-lidar hill.
