Id say the same to you. Agree to disagree. Im moving on.

The root cause is that people are let off the hook. "Oh both candidates were bad, no point in voting." Hell you hear that crap all the time "republican and republican lite." It's not even close to the truth and people saying it are just giving people excuses for being lazy and letting them off the hook.

I'm not trying to make them hurt. I think they will be by default and deserve to be reminded that doing nothing ensured it.

And if you would read what I wrote then you'd see that I am saying the Dems need to make changes sure but we also need to remind nonvoters they most definitely culpable for everything that happens in this administration. Why are you so averse to that? Afraid they might actually be forced to do some introspection and realize that they are part of the problem? Maybe they'll finally take ownership and actually go vote?

For real- take the L and move on.

I mean, that is at least somewhat fair.

Now, do I think that Biden who apparently did not know, had zero intent, and showed no resistance to getting those documents back to the right place would be charged? Most likely not. But I do agree that justice should prevail all the same.

Comments like yours make it clear youre trying to equate two wholly different scenarios with the same level of culpability.

You make excuses for them not voting and absolve them of ownership of the situation. They'll never feel like theyre at fault if you do that. And they should.

And I fundamentally disagree- the party is supposed to convince you to vote for them, not to vote in general. It's a civic duty.

So yes, so long as they never are made to feel they drove the car into the ditch, they won't. So my suggestion is to start making them acutely aware that they are at fault and when bad shit happens let them know that they brought it upon themselves but they also have the power to change that in the future.

Keep giving excuses and being dense. See how that works out for you. Great job.

Try not being so blatant about arguing in bad faith next time. Makes you slightly more believable as not a complete partisan.

Voters and non voters.

Im asking for the slightest bit of effort on their part.

But sure, keep making excuses for them and they'll take it. Im sure they'll wake up one day and realize it's all their fault after everyone has continually excused them.

Haha, if you think I have a "team", youre fucking cooked.

I'm calling a spade a spade. You want to avoid this? Vote for who is CLOSEST to what you want. Instead of waiting for Santa Claus.

Amazing. You read an article about how shitty trump is and you immediately blame Democrats.

 

Anyone else hate this? I don't want a dumbed down bar. If Im on the homepage, I want to know. Same as if I'm on a subpage.

This is in reference to Mozilla changing the URL to ALWAYS show only the domain. Absolutely terrible IMO. As for the double tall menu now? That is mostly fine.

At least give me an option to see the full url.

 

Unsure if this is the place to ask or not but figured it was closest to it.

Basically I am looking to make an AIO retro gaming PC. Main goal is to have one simple box hooked up to the TV so my friends and I can game without having to swap discs and consoles all the time. Would probably use mostly DS3 (or 4?) controllers hooked up with USB or via BT.

I know lemmy doesn't much care about piracy but this is all just to play games/consoles we legally own. Would include PS1-3, Nintendo, SNES, N64, Gamecube (think that is all we have).

I think https://batocera.org/ has been mentioned, Lakka (maybe this is more for pis?), and EmuDeck has been mentioned. Basically looking for the easiest distro to throw on a PC with a nice UI (can be launched via kb/mouse, all the same to me) that has the emulators built in and just needs the ROMs.
