Election deniers rigging elections. Who knew.

Just downloaded it now with flatpak. I’m pleased that it looks and feels pretty much the same. Just more to the point. Exactly what I want.
They are fun to drive! However, you really need to have room for it IMHO like some open or back roads to drive on. If you don’t live near many of those then that’s definitely something to consider. Getting to the bumper of the car in front of me faster is less interesting.
They can’t decide whether they’re evil or they just hire the most inept and cheapest people possible.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. Spend your money where it makes you happy. I’d feel more sympathetic if I didn’t feel compelled to own one when it’s not something that brings me joy.
I kind of think of it like owning a high-end smartphone. Practically speaking maybe it doesn’t make as much difference as a more cost-effective option, but if it makes you happy, by all means. Life is short. But I can still just manage to get by without a smart phone these days if I wanted to do that. I can’t say the same for a vehicle.
While I can afford it, I intentionally have the smallest, most efficient vehicle I can possibly get away with owning while still meeting my mandatory social requirement of having a vehicle.
Due to a lack of public transportation, it is required. There’s no other practical means I can use to do the 45 minute commute to work, short of perhaps buying a motorcycle which puts me at risk due to the predominance of huge SUVs. I’ve considered an E bike, but we don’t even have sidewalks on this route.
I just can’t swallow investing in something that either sits outside or sits in traffic. I don’t use half of what that little four banger is capable of.
Life is movement. We die when we stop moving.
I feel this is true with humans taken together too. It’s not about being absolutely correct. It’s about believing we can learn.
I hold out hope that there will be enough people who desire progress and knowledge that we can always keep growing and just maybe outpace greed.
No no, you have a point and I agree. We admit too many viewpoints as potentially valid when these points do not agree with facts. For example, it’s ridiculous to consider the question of the existence of climate change as a topic of debate. Instead, it’s a scientific fact that human-caused climate change is having an impact on our world. To seriously consider points of view that ignore facts (outside of perhaps artistic merit) is not a productive use of our limited time.
I do think there is some flexibility in the interpretation of facts, but to discard objective truth entirely is to me a rejection of the scientific method, and that does not lead to a desirable future for humans. It is to discard the merits of human progress in general.
Now, lately a concerning portion of my fellow citizens have expressed that they do not fundamentally believe in improvement, but that’s another topic entirely.
I believe the poster meant to write distribution. I don’t believe that Linux Mint releases for Raspberry Pie or if it does I’m not aware of this. The main downloads are for Intel or AMD machines only.
He looks nice.
It was spectrum Internet. Charter communications.
60% is a big ask.
