Same! I finally “beat” satisfactory by delivering all the project parts. In early access I unlocked all milestones but never delivered the final project part.
Starting space age, only got up to automating green science, working on military science now. Probably won’t be able to play much this week though.
Housing needs to be less commodimized, but tons of normal families have their entire network tied up in a home.
Any act that raises home prices hurts though without and any act that lowers home prices hurts those with. How can we untangle homes being family’s largest asset without screwing older people.
Without homes and apartments being a commodity, how do we determine who gets to live where fairly? Isn’t there like 10x as many vacancies than homeless people? So it’s not a supply issue, it’s a location issue. The open market is great for sorting that out, but the open market has abused housing and is squeezing too hard.
I don’t like that home prices are as high as they are, and we need to change our mindset about how home pricing should work. It needs both government oversight and market forces.
I can see this random tweet from Taylor Swift just fine in incognito mode. I can’t look at replies but I can see her posts.

People on Lemmy link to tweets all the time and I can navigate and read them. Not sure what you mean then that it’s authwalled. It’s an annoying experience and it bugs me every time I visit to make an account or log in, but I can see them.
So let’s say on Twitter, someone blocks me and I can’t read their post. Can’t I just log out and read their post that way? I don’t have a Twitter account, so I’ve never seen a blocked link before.
Very disruptive. Landfills typically bury the day’s trash at the end of the day and it’s just layers and layers of garbage, like lasagna. You might be able to work on Monday’s trash slice, but by the time Thursday rolls around, it’s time to add a layer on top of Monday.
Digging could interrupt the entire landfill process if it’s still an active landfill, meaning the daily garbage has to be redirected elsewhere, because landfills aren’t just a hole in the ground, they are a feat of engineering.
If you’re talking about what Google or Microsoft offer as a login tool, it’s basically a file hidden on your physical PC so when you attempt to login to a service that wants it, the service gets a password from you and the passkey from your actual device to authenticate you.
For example, I have passkey enabled on my windows PC that my Google account has a passkey in. Anytime I access the built in password manager in chrome, Windows now gives me a pop up for a PIN number, and then windows will authenticate on my behalf with the hidden passkey.
If I need to access my password manager from my phone or another computer, I have to use my Google password instead since my passkey isn’t on those physical devices.
I believe Microsoft stores your passkey files on your motherboards TPM module, but I could be wrong.
Petroleum jelly like thing, to protect combs from freezing weather
If Trump wins, I imagine Ivanka or Eric run in 2028 with the soft understanding that Donald is still running the show. If Donald was younger, GOP might try to remove term limits.
If Harris wins, I expect not much of anything to change. Dems don’t have enough of the Senate to enact campaign promises, and if they did, they wouldn’t act in it like in the past.
But hey, at least Dems populate government seats with people that seem to want to do a good job. We don’t have the owner of private schools leading the dept of education or C-Suite Exxon guys running the EPA or telecom guys running the FCC.
Yeah, the tweet just seems wrong. I just took “based” as “based in reality” and red pill is the matrix choice to see how the world really is.
Based for opinions you agree with, red pilled for opinions “the other side” doesn’t want you to have (the other side can also be imaginary)
Undecided voters aren’t undecided between Trump and Harris, they are undecided on leaving the couch to go vote.
So I don’t really think it’s changing the mind of voters and I don’t see it motivating people to go vote.
Just seems like an attempt at counter narrative for “Comrade Harris”. I don’t see it moving the needle.
Alaska, a red state, is reportedly trying to remove their rank choice voting. This isn’t a “Dems” problem, it’s a two party problem.
Even if state and local elections are ranked choice, the presidential election will still be a first past the post election and the electoral college is still designed for a two party system.
The fact you even look at politics puts you in like, the top 20% of the US population.
I would wager the majority of people that do vote, just look for an R or D next to a name and check the box for their team and move on.
There were about 160 million people who voted in 2020, an unprecedented amount of engagement from the voting populace, and still not half of Americans voting.
People don’t really care. Do they have a job? Are their basic needs met? If yes, vote incumbent, if no, vote competition. I expect to see tweets in November asking where Biden went and who is Kamala.
From my time on Reddit years ago this question came up.
Some cashier’s said they reciprocate the exchange back to the customer. If the customer puts cash on the counter for them to pick up, they’ll put the change on the counter in return.
There also was probably some new training from covid where you didn’t want to touch people directly, so those training materials probably still exist
My guess is no one is willing to take on the liability. Any new system that introduces bugs or introduces attack vectors from hackers don’t want to be responsible for any lost money and I’m sure banks/insurance don’t want to take on the risk either.
Magnetic tape and clearing houses for the indefinite future!
The mast majority of legal precedings end with a plea deal.
“Plea guilty to this misdemeanor with a fine and walk out of jail today, or wait in jail for 3 months and fight an uphill court case where people will blindly trust the police and we can fabricate any narrative we want”
“Oh you want to fight and post bail? Okay well for three months we require biweekly drug screenings you pay for, you have a curfew, and if the police can come up with some other bs charge while you’re out, we get to tack on bail jumping”
It’s not hard to see why people will admit to being guilty while innocent when pleading guilty won’t result in jail time
Our company pays for TeamViewer, and I still get nagged all the time, so there’s no point in giving them money, they still nag you all the time.
Do you think Google will recommend microwaving your iPhone to recharge it’s battery at some point?
The only thing I would add is that with the electoral system, it’s not the candidate with the most electoral votes that win, it’s the candidate who gets half+1 votes (270 or more currently)
If candidate A wins 250 votes, candidate B wins 200 votes and candidate C wins 88 votes, candidate A does not win. If there is no winner, the house of representatives votes for president, each state getting one vote.
Another reason why third party presidential candidates are never serious contenders.
