Wow. Looks like I'm going to start watching InfoWars.

That's a sentence I thought I'd never say.

I think in addition to that, we should force all corporations to be worker-owned cooperatives in order to bring demcracy to the workplace.

Yeah, he'll just get his 6/3 Supreme Court majority to rule that the president is also immune to state crimes like they already ruled for federal crime.

Oh, I do. But also we need major campaign finance reform as a constitutional amendment banning private money in politics so even the Republicans won't be able to take big money.

They have no easy path to fix it because they take billionaire and corporate money. If they stopped doing that, the path would've been obvious this entire time.

DNC Leadership would rather lose with a neoliberal candidate than win with a progressive one.

That's because they're paid by big money donors to prevent any movement to the left while big money donors pay the GOP to move further right. This shifts the center (Overton Window) further and further right over time, causing the Democrats to ultimately move towards the right over time.

Obama said that if he was a politician in the 1980s, he would be considered a Republican, and he wasn't wrong.

I had that same revelation back in 2016

Historically, yes. Thankfully, history is known to not repeat itself.

Snowden's leaks are a big reason why I got into politics and FOSS and a big reason why I'm a socialist today.

We need a different voting system or it will just keep repeating the same situation indefinitely.

What is SDF's opinion on pre-emptive deferation with Threads?

I know SDF Chatter hasn't defedded with any instance, but there is a serious risk of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish if we federate with Threads.

Looking for a PS196 based DP to HDMI 2.1 converter (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Looking for a DP to HDMI 2.1 that supports 4k120 with Freesync and the various HDR standards. Saw the PS196 was announced some while back, but can't find any converters that implement it.

Anyone know where I can find a converter, or even just the chip itself so I can build my own?

Looking for games that will make me cry (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

Looking for an XT to USB and BT converter (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

I have an OG Model F (pre IBM XT, but the same standard) and used to have a Pro Micro-based Soarer's converter before it died on me.

I'm looking for a replacement that can be both wired (either USB, PS/2, or AT) and wireless (either Bluetooth or via dongle). Soarer-style macros would be a nice-to-have, especially for the missing F11, F12, and Meta keys.

Does anything like that exist?

Search engine without SEO garbage? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Been looking for a search engine that isn't plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I'm starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything organic. It's even worse when I look for any kind of service or product.

Looking for as close to 100% organic results as possible.

Best Debrid service? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I've been using Real Debrid for about a year now, but there're a couple of things making me want to switch.

I like to share my account with a couple of friends. Real Debrid gave me a warning about banning my account if I use it concurrently with someone else.

Real Debrid no longer accepts emails from AnonAddy or Tutanota. I would much rather not have to give out any real contact info.

Looking for a comparable service that caches torrents from anyome who downloads it and provides a link premiumizing service. I would also like to be able to give out direct links for the purposes of using Syncplay.

Whatever I use must be compatible with Torrentio inside of Stremio.
