Dude is gonna come back at him with the first mention of lead in the bible and say, no this is where God created lead, lol.

LOL

Aha, so just don't participate. Cool cool.

Cool! Since I do the occasional mountain bike ride or hike into places with zero cell service, it's a huge plus for me to have satellite communication capabilities on the phone. Interesting they're working it the other way too for disaster areas.

Because Trump is so likely to be a better choice for solving the Israel-Gaza crisis, lol.

If you have an iPhone 14 on and iOS 18 you can now text via satellite during an outage too. People in NC were raving about how great it was to be able to check in with loved ones and get help.

I have literally never downloaded pirated software since OS 9 went away and OS X became a thing. Open up your task manager and look at how many processes there are (Window, Mac or Linux) and ask yourself if you're going to notice the one extra process that is out of place.

As for files with extra extensions, this is why you should always set Explorer/Finder/whatever to show all file extensions the very first thing, regardless of what OS you're running too.

All I want is the ability to use the freaking emojis panel on macOS. This bug was identified over a year ago and they haven't fixed it yet, because I think they're secretly hoping Apple will just magically fix it for them.

Man the one on the right just hunkers down in the middle of the trail, no roosting! And they taste dusty when they fly up and hit you in the face while you're mountain biking at night.

I hope like hell the sets of questions were randomized, because if they weren't, they were tweaked by the surveyors beforehand to try and force a particular result.

Like the AI question was paired with some incredibly crappy options like "A browser that runs 2x slower than your current browser". Obviously they want you to click that option as least wanted and leave the AI development alone (if that wasn't a randomized grouping).

Similarly, it looked like they were trying to decide which feature to sacrifice in support of AI dev in later questions, because all 3 would be things I enjoy much more than AI, but I have to rate one as least wanted.

EDIT: OK, thanks for all the responses everyone! Looks like my pairing of AI and 2x slower was just a bad random selection inducing extreme paranoia on my part. Very happy to hear that.

Why are people still using a site bought and run by a guy supporting the rise of Christian fascism solely for the purposes of getting tax breaks on his ill-gotten billions?

Not available on Firefox. Nope!

Hopefully, citizen petitions are allowed on the ballot in your state, because it's a fairly easy one to get on the ballot that way—a ton of people want it. Otherwise you'll have to lobby your state congress critters, which unfortunately is not as easy…

So you don't give a shit whether fascism wins? Cool cool, cool cool.

No, but if you're not voting for whoever the Dem candidate is, you're the one promoting fascism and an end to worker rights at this juncture, so… ¯_(ツ)_/¯

OK, so you can criticize real good. What's your actual, legal plan to switch Democratic candidates at such a late date? Everyone loves to criticize Biden and play fantasy football about who they would pick, but as near as I can tell, the only other person who could legally be chosen is Kamala Harris.

Who is already on the ticket and will take over if something does happen to Biden. Oh, and if you think putting a black, female candidate up against Trump is suddenly going to win hearts and minds, then I have a Nigerian prince I'd like to put you in touch with for a small finders fee.

Actually, I am pretty sure this is a Russian bot account anyway, but what the heck, let's see what your response is.

I believe in AZ it is on the ballot as a petition-based initiative in November. Because the Republican-majority congress wants nothing to do with it.

LOL…

Oh yeah, it would have all turned out much better under Trump! /s

Seriously though, he's had a ridiculous congress to attempt to work with and he's still gotten quite a few things done. Restarted FCC and FDA at their jobs of actually regulating. Infrastructure bills. Student loan relief. Airline accountability. Wiping out non-compete clauses by companies. Huge economic recovery from the hole Trump had dug for us.

All the people in here complaining they don't like their choices. Holy fuck, those are the choices. You don't get to change them in under half a year from the election, lol. We've already had the primaries. We have two old candidates. One is old and has been running the country successfully for nearing 4 years. One is a convicted felon with convictions ranging from fraud to sexual assault. Both have age-related health issues, but only one is promising to try and bring about the end of democracy in this country via Project 2025 if elected.

If you want to change your choices next time, support some form of ranked voting in your state next time so that you can vote for the wild progressive candidate, but also rank the one you think is likely to win under that.
