No, I know I’ll be allowed to vote in the primaries. I also have zero faith that any worthwhile option will be allowed to run. So, vote between worthless option number 1, or worthless option number 2.

On top of all that, I’m still not convinced it’s not rigged from the start. Joe Biden in 2020 wasn’t considered a real option. He was in 5th place and assumed to drop out shortly. Bernie Sanders had a significant lead. Then, in the timespan of 3 days, Biden was far and away the clear cut leader. I’ve not since that day held any faith in the DNC.

I vote for this guy for president for two reasons.

1. This guy gets it

And 2) Look at my alternatives. We all know trump is going to be the 2028 candidate despite that not being legal. I’m at a point where I don’t even think he’s going to use corruption to change the law. I think he’s just going to run, and nobody will do anything to stop it. As far as the democrats go, I don’t know who they’ll run, but I know they’ll be worthless. Probably Tim Walz or some shit.

So yeah, I got nothing to lose and everything to gain by voting for this random guy who may not even be eligable to run for president due to not being American. But hey, laws won’t exactly be the top priority in the 2028 election anyways.

Maaaaaaaaan…this sucks. At one point in the 90s I had played every version of tetris released.

I haven’t kept up, but my inner 8 year old is sad. My inner 8 year old wants to play all the tetris, but my outer 42 year old self is keeping my inner 8 year old away from anything trump related.

My inner 8 year old is sad, but I’ll understand when I grow up…wait, how does this work again?

And how do you think AI is interacted with? On what device?

I don’t use chrome, but this thread is the first I’m hearing of this.

That just raises FURTHER questions!

…war?

That just sounds like Bobs Burgers. Where Gene was saving his poop for the Superbowl Halftime show. Medical problems ensued.

No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no.

I still remember the 2011 Reddit meetup, or whatever it was. Where they took a picture, and the girls were flashing their titties, and they were pouring beer all over the ground, and I swear there was an alternate picture besides the one that got famous, where the guy in the background was peeing on the driveway.

Can we please not do Lemmy meetups? I don’t feel confident that would be a good look for Lemmy.

Usually they post baked beans. And that comes from Boston.

I always just accepted everything as a kid, and just nodded along.

Haven’t thought about that little song in decades. But now, at age 42, I’m just now thinking “Hey, wait a minute! Beans aren’t fruits! What the hell…”

And I cannot for the life of me fathom how 5 year old me didn’t come to that conclusion. I just nodded. Yep. Magical fruit.

I think we may just have a difference in perspective. I would call a buggy a car because it has wheels and carries passengers. I wouldn’t call it an automobile, because that implies an automatic engine, but I would consider it a form of car.

Same with BBS/Internet. Once you have a series of servers interconnected, and have access to them via an ISP, yes. That is a form of early internet. It dates back to something like the 1960s. Going back to NASA and government usage.

So I think we’re talking about the same thing with just a difference of perspective and opinion.

Early internet, yes. Not pre-internet.

I’ve been saying this for years. Look at taxi’s. In my city in 2005 there were 8 major taxi companies. Each with hundreds of drivers on the road at any given time. Now we have 2 of those 8 remaining, and they’re essentially shell companies with 2-3 drivers on the road. The last 4 times I’ve tried ordering a cab the traditional way, I’ve been told there’s no drivers available. Now it’s all Uber. And Lyft. You can’t call them. You need a cell phone, and you need internet access.

All the major corporations are in agreement that we all need cell phones, and we all need to be tracked 24/7. And now with AI, they’re getting their data straight from the source. There are men out there who talk to an AI girlfriend. Not sexy stuff. I mean imagine sitting at the dinner table, and discussing your day…with your AI girlfriend. Meanwhile, ALL that data is going straight to the companies that host the AI.

Another side effect is that AI will make people dumber. In case you haven’t noticed since the 1970s, there has been a GOP push to make the citizens dumber and dumber. Easier to control. Easier to fool. Easier to get away with things.

So now you got ram being sold for computers that haven’t been built yet, to be put in data centers that haven’t been built yet, to run an AI system that isn’t functional yet, in order to steal the jobs of employees that can’t be replaced yet, all in an effort to chase profits that were never possible in the first place since everyone hates AI.

You wanna see some shit go down? Tell the companies we’ll use their AI if they get the unredacted epstein files released. See how fast they bribe the right people then.

Now tell the politicians we’ll stop caring about the epstein files if they forcibly ban all data centers in the country. See how fast they act on that.

Now we sit back, wait, and watch the fireworks. Oh, and by the way, we’re going back on our word either way. Whomever wins, fuck em.

What if it’s just a flying drone, but all it does is shoot you with a never ending supply of spit balls? Just all day, every day, bullied by a drone.

Or never had one, and are just checking one thing. Then twitter says you need an account to view. So you use these alternate viewing sites. I did that a few times.

If Lemmy has a retweet function, I’d retweet your comment. More people need to see this.

Violence still isn’t necessary

I disagree. Show me a time in history where a population is being oppressed, and then that stopped without violence.

Ya know…everyone always tries to say violence isn’t the answer. It’s things like this that tells me those people are stupid. Violence is absolutely the answer.

I think OP wants to call her a disgusting pig.
