The fact that the reporting is lopsided does not mean both side are biased. The actual event can have been lopsided, and then one of the media sides is being impartial.

I’m not saying that’s what happened, I don’t know what “really” happened. Neither do you.

It would be like calling FEMA ‘democrat run’ when talking about the latest hurricane recovery efforts. It is literally true, but it is not relevant. To add it would only serve an editorial purpose, not a factual one.

I’ve never heard “as the crow flies” used that way. It is always used to talk about distance, not direction.

When everyone tries to leave at once it’s just about the worst driving scenario possible.

That gives me a notion. Maybe it’s possible to get team owners on board supporting public transit, by pointing out that the reason people don’t stay for the whole game is to avoid traffic.

Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.

When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.

Electing someone who believes that we should have laws and enforce them is exactly what we should do.

When she was a prosecutor, it was not her job to change the laws or decide which ones to enforce. If we don’t want non-violent drug users and truants prosecuted, then we should change those laws. We have a process for that, and it doesn’t include prosecutors making those decisions for us.

And many “flowers” are not flowers at all. Poinsettia is the first one that comes to mind, but there are lots of them.

Let’s give her large majorities in congress, then she can fix the court.

Google breaks Newpipe regularly, and then Newpipe always fixes it very fast. Sometimes I’ve been unable to use it for about two days or so. Totally worth it to not support Google.

Check for updates within the app itself. Those are more current than the app stores.

Losing any one of those three throws it to Trump.

Unless she win NC or OH. She’s doing really well in both.

I think this is going to be a giant blowout win for Kamala. But, please, no one get cocky! Everyone has to actually vote!

I thought the situation was a little like Android. Google develops an open source version (along with as many independent developers who wish to contribute), then sticks on a bunch of proprietary BS and sells that version to phone companies. If chromium is to chrome like vanilla android is to android with g-services, then I guess my question really becomes: is google making this change in the underlying code base, or just in the BS they put on top?

Or am I confused about how the connection works between chrome and chromium?

Will this change be implemented in Chromium too? Or will it / should it finally become independent of Chrome?

“Unlock the door” is a really strange way to say “lock the door.” What a dolt.

So frustrating that their logo is a nice looking round watch, but their product is an ugly rectangular one.

Agreed.

It’s a hopeful idea, but it may be too late.

Hah! Ya got me!

But of course I’m talking about the adjective punk, as in " punk rock," which is an entirely other word than the noun puncke, (or, more modern, punk ) which Shakespeare used.

ETA: I don’t mean to imply they’re not related They just aren’t the same word. And one of them was created in the 1970s.

I agree that the word punk came to be associated with aesthetics, almost exclusively. But that is very far from where it started, and it is frustrating for those who started it to see it coopted like this. The association of the word with anything other than anti-consumerism is just " branding" at its worst.

I was a tween when the first version of “punk” came around (yes, that makes me old). I think I can say with authority that the ideals were: anti-corporate, anti-consumerism, and anti-commercialism. Ever since then people have tried to sum it up (and marginalize it) as “DIY.” But that falls well short of what it really was.

Of course, the second it showed any sign of viable popularity, the forces of capitalism, well…, capitalized on it. The obvious examples are bullshit, high production, made-for-tv bands like Green Day getting sold as punk rock. But does anyone remember Urban Outfitters? Holy crap, the open, unashamed corporate pandering!

rtfa. That was never implied by either side.
