And that’s just as a percentage of registered voters. Compared to a total percentage of the population it’s more like a fifth of people who voted for Trump. It really is a small minority and a broken electoral system that got us into this mess.

As a Kansan I hear about half of these regularly.

Actually a deadlift with proper form heavily activates the lower back. That’s pretty much what it’s for, to strengthen your back. The whole posterior chain gets some activation, but the lower back gets the bulk of it.

That’s correct, and basically the reason the whole “Zelensky is a dictator” argument doesn’t hold water. He’s following the laws of his country by not holding elections. Our country doesn’t work that way.

I guarantee this person has never waited tables.

I’m just learning from this thread that we Americans have a reputation for small talk with strangers. For what it’s worth, it’s not really true in my experience. I never have cashiers or people I’m sitting next to on the bus try to engage me in conversation. Though it is true that smiling while interacting with people is considered polite.

I use Orca on EndeavorOS and it works perfectly. There’s an AUR package for it so it’s simple and well supported (would work as well on anything Arch based).

If you stopped playing after 3, and who could blame you, than you did miss out on Black Flag which was probably the high point of the series. But your general point still stands, Black Flag is kind of the exception that proves the rule.

This happened to me once (with deer ticks, not lone star) while I was having a nice walk in the woods high on shrooms. Worst trip of my life.

For what it’s worth, I regularly print materials not supported by the AMS on my Bambu P1S and it’s quite painless. There’s a spool holder on the back of the machine that you can load directly to the extruder bypassing the AMS. Of course, if your goal is do multicolor prints in TPU obviously that won’t work.

I actually really like the story of Dune, but I kind of have to agree that the writing leaves a lot to be desired. The fact that Herbert constantly switches perspectives with no indication in the middle of chapters, or sometimes even in the middle of paragraphs, drives me up the wall. I almost couldn’t finish them because of that.

Terry Crews 2028!

Yeah Proton is definitely the way to go over using Wine directly. Valve has put a ton of work into making it seamless. I have a large steam library and have found literally only one game (Destiny 2) that doesn’t work. And that’s just because Bungie has gone out of their way to make sure it won’t run on Linux for “anti cheating” reasons.

I’ve gotten a lot of freezing and stuttering playing on my desktop PC (Linux with Proton). The deck actually seems to be more stable, though it is locked to 30 fps and textures still take a minute to load sometimes.

I’ve been playing it on steam deck, it’s definitely playable but I wouldn’t call it smooth.

The shadow drop was real, I’m downloading it now!

My wife loves her Jelly phones, she’s had two now over the years, and they are TINY. So much so I can’t even type on them, her hands are way smaller than mine. I think the screen is like 3x2 inches.

Seriously, he keeps saying we’re supposed to be being paid to hate Tesla, but I haven’t seen a paycheck yet. Anyone have the number for HR?

This article misses the point. The reason there are no good billionaires isn’t that they change their politics and morality to whatever drives profits. It’s because they have amassed more wealth than they can ever possibly need, while others suffer and die who could be saved by that wealth. If you have billions of dollars that you could have given to the needy and instead you’re sitting on your hoard like a fucking dragon, you have failed morally. tldr: billionaires are dragons and we need more dragonslayers

I don’t think this is really a hot take. I know quite a few star wars fans and most of them (including me) love Solo, even those who can’t stand any of the other new movies.
