I did not assume anything about you, I specifically said I wasn't saying you personally did this. but you can't deny there's a decent proportion of left-leaning voters who do this.

I'm also not a liberal, neither the US usage of the term nor the original usage. But do keep insulting everyone who disagrees with you, I'm sure it will be great for attracting people to your cause

I just think you should consider not only the ideal outcome of your vote but also the most likely one. what did voting third party actually do here other than make you feel good? Trump has in fact been doing worse than kamala would have on the middle east and is gunning for a war against Iran. in addition but obviously not nearly as bad as the genocide, his tariffs will negatively impact a lot of people in southeast asia.

but more than all that, and I'm not saying you personally do this, I'm tired of people not voting in any election but the presidential and then complaining about the choices they ended up with.

I'm not American but there's so many socialists on here refusing to vote for the lesser evil because they don't offer the right candidates and advocating revolution.

why not take a page from the right's clearly successful playbook and vote more in local politics and primaries. Maga managed to turn the republicans into exactly what they wanted this way, but the American left just sits there waiting for someone to start a revolution.

well I understand it might be late now and elections might not do much going forward, but jesus it's like the only option you guys saw is voting for whoever the parties put toward or revolution.

I mean he's fragrantly ignoring a supreme court order. at this point law enforcement agencies are complicit for not doing anything. I really think there are no boundaries left for trump to increase his personal power.

hard disagree about the permissions. If I want to run closed source programs like games, discord, zoom or whatever, I like knowing they can't log all my keys, take screenshots or even run their own version of windows recall without my explicit permission

If the point of Lemmy is just to generate as many comments as possible with everyone just assuming whatever they want about linked articles without reading them I'll quickly leave again. I'm here for informed discussion, not for a competition in generating engagement

except for c++ it was just to avoid a single function call, not extra indirection. also on modern compilers size() will get inlined and ultimate instructions generated by the compiler will likely be the same

why comment if you don't even want to read the article? python lists are not linked lists, they're contiguous with a smart growth strategy.

good thing about the terminal is it scares most general users so much that they won't touch it even with instructions. There will be many issues, but I don't think people running random commands in the terminal will be common

yep, I've been discovering the virtues of low-alcohol beer. perhaps they had it right in the middle ages with small beer

the meat off of hens that have stopped laying is also mostly only good for soup, since it's pretty tough meat that said, it's not that hard to kill them for food since you're not exactly cuddling with them or even that close to them often like with companion pets
