"The economy" is just a wildcard character for whichever of 6000 different metrics a low information voter wants to use to justify voting R.
Gas prices, inflation, wage growth, GDP, corporate profits, the Dow Jones..... one of them is sure to be better when the R was president and another one is sure to be worse when a D is president.
Honestly... except for the lack of unintelligible ads, you could have told me that was a screencap from an average news website and I would believe it.
On top of what you just mentioned, rather than Trump surrounding himself with incompetent toadies and yes-men, I think a lot of smarter, more powerful, and more dangerous people have taken the last 4 years to worm their way into his ranks.
He's established himself as a useful idiot. During his first 4 years we saw the idiot part glaringly. It was scary and embarrassing, but we scraped by and experienced a few years of relatively boring politics. My big worry is that we'll see the useful part exploited much more effectively this time around.
And other people are thin-skinned when it comes to reading other people's opinions on the internet 🤷♂️
Or just run both, period!
Plex is definitely more straightforward to maintain remote access to your content (including library sharing with friends & family). So it may be worth keeping up for that aspect alone, even if you end up liking Jellyfin better.
You've only heard people complain about leaf blowers on lemmy? Seems like a very common annoyance in my general experience, and this is about the time of year when they come out in force, so it's not surprising people are going to complain.
Also, leaf blowers are pretty damn high on the noise/utility ratio. MFers in my neighborhood will be out there for half an hour blowing around grass clippings after mowing, when the wind is gusting 20mph.
"WE ARE ALL DOMESTIC TERRORISTS"
I actually prefer it the way it's executed.
Maybe I'm thinking way too much about this, but each panel obviously takes some time amount of time to draw, and likewise each panel portrays some finite amount of time--not just an instant snapshot of the story. So as the dog is yelling at him, his drawing quality is degrading as he is working on the panel, leading to an inconsistent quality within the panel.
I legit can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, because it perfectly encapsulates the weird way america is so blase about depictions of graphic, gleeful violence while simultaneously being horrified at seeing a nipple.on tv.
To add, there is something about those old 40s and 50s era technical films like you linked that is just so... I don't what exactly it is, but I find them fascinating and genuinely informative, even though they are explaining tech that is decades obsolete.
It's pretty awesome that they are still available 70+ years later in excellent quality!
I had no idea what a "Dutch angle" was, so I googled it and was pretty tickled to find that it triggered a Google easter egg :)
Maybe I am one of today's 10,000 but I had never heard of that particular one!
