I get what you're saying, but apathy at that scale isn't calling democrats a horse. It's taking a backseat on your future.

"I know why she lost"

She lost because 11 million people sat out this election. That's it, that's all there is.

The fact is that most of this country leans blue, and when voters turn out, blue typically wins. This is why the GOP is doing everything they can to make sure people don't vote.

Trump has a vote ceiling of around 74, maybe 75 million. In 2020, 81 million people voted for Biden.

Nearly every news outlet has reported record voter turnout, but look at the vote counts from 2020 vs this year.

There's an old addage when working with any Microsoft product:

"Wait longer"

In other words, your first click was probably doing its thing. You just needed to wait a little longer to see it work.

In America, you can't open a bank account without an address. That means that the homeless population can't open a bank account (not easily, anyway), and therefore can't get a debit card.

Cashless is a nice idea, but it is extremely prohibitive against the most vulnerable people (which, sadly, might be part of the point).

How did I know Elon was attached to this before I even clicked the article?

Wait, but if Taiwan is a part of China, wouldn't it be China getting the weapons?

So why are they mad, Bart? Why are they mad?

If all discernable heat is unobservable and unobtainable, then semantics don't matter. Everything still dies. I'd include "heat" in that mix, but that's waxing philosophical

Until the day that even heat dies.

 

Hey all, I made a Firefox extension (signed by Mozilla) specifically to add Show/Hide Child Comments functionality similar to how RES had it (where the parent comment is still visible).

It's not very useful, but I could use some feedback on tightening up the Javascript. I'm not a JS beginner, but I know I can do better, so any tips are welcome!

EDIT: Also, if anyone has any suggestions for the extension, I'm open to those as well.

Installed yesterday and immediately went ad-free. It's such a beautiful app.

Anyway, question is in the title.

 
 

I'm new myself but took the time to learn the platform. I'm not sure other people will have as much of an interest, so I'm just wondering if it would be a good idea for some of the old hat people to post some tips for people coming over from reddit.
