Hey why don't you explain to me how any of that benefits the American people and specifically how it would benefit one of these voters?

Because materially it doesn't.

Mean is no one going to call out the strategy for like the last month to possibly 3 months was her pandering as hard as she could to Republicans moderate and isolating the leftist Democratic base?

Right? I have been thinking how someone could build something like that. I would love to try my hand at a landing page like that

Right I forgot about that. That's also a thing with Mastodon. I think in decentralized Services need to push that there are each other so it doesn't matter which one that you end up going with. That's at least what drove me to get on let me in the first place cuz I know that whatever instance I would get on would allow me to participate with everybody else the same way you and me are on different instances right now.

I mean a large problem with services like Lemmy Mastodon and peer tube is that they're complicated. There's a learning curve require that I don't have to have if I go to a place like YouTube or any other video site. Peertube requires me to learn about servers and other things in order to fully utilize their service and that's a massive barrier to the public. Currently it's preventing me because I just frankly don't have time to go learn about more technological Concepts to best use a service.

Don't get me wrong it's not a dig at the services. They are excellent and I'm glad they're here and one day I will figure out peertube but until these sites are as easy to use as going to a link and just doing whatever the person wants to do if they're just not going to take off. Places like limmy and Mastodon and even peertube need a centralized portal so that is just super easy to start.

Oh my friend. You think these companies do things in a logical scalable way? I have some really bad news....

Theoretically that could work but sometimes security measures require computers be BitLocker encrypted and certain softwares could make this difficult to achieve like fixing a domain controller.

I mean yeah I know most pirates won't use Google and will use other search engines but the majority of people using the internet don't even know that there are other search engines to use. Keeping them off Google is effective at preventing them from reaching other people.

It's going to be a grind. This is causing blue screen of death on Windows machines which can only be rectified if you have physical/console access.

In the cloud space if this is happening to you I think you're screwed. I mean theoretically there's a way to do it by installing Windows unmounting the disc from the virtual machine to another working virtual machine but it's a freaking bear.

Basically everyone's going to have to grind this whole thing out to fix this problem. There's not going to be an easy way to use automation unless they have a way to destroy and recreate all their computers.

I live in linuxland and it's been really fun watching this from the side. I really feel for this admins having to deal with this right now because it's going to just suck.

Yeah dude is gonna have some hard questions to answer

[–] adhdplantdev@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah not showing up to vote would certainly show the controlling Elites what is. Also goes nicely with that 30% of Americans that don't vote no matter what. If you're going to insist on idiotic plans at least vote third parties so you know your vote actually counts as a statistic of a locally grumpy voter. On the bright side if you guys get your way and Trump does get elected it could make the material circumstances bad enough that we could see a real upheaval in American society that will make things significantly worse and then make things significantly better.

Okay that's good news but how does that relate to states that do have bans on gender affirming care like Texas? Does this give the hospital room to fight or something?
