I’m running a pure gaming PC in my living room with Bazzite and I love it for that. In pretty much any other situation though it doesn’t make much sense.

Is this from something or do you just wander through life dropping awesome prose like this?

1-800-OKFACE!? THAT’S NOT EVEN THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF NUMBERS!

You make it sound like they live on the moon. While there might be no easy “law abiding” way to get to them, this doesn’t exactly sound like a law abiding conversation.

I’m 42 and uncircumcised, born and raised in America. My entire life the total sum of what it’s amounted to from locker rooms to relationships is pretty close to “huh, ok then”. I can’t promise it will be the same for your son but it’s been a total non-issue in my life.

But people are more than 7" thick. It depends on how you interpret it I guess, I read it as moving 7" in any direction which means you’ll still overlap with your own body, but if you read it as there being a 7" gap between where you were and where you are now then it would work.

In absolute terms you’re right that Democrats aren’t the left but we’re not in an absolute situation, we’re in a relative situation. Until someone comes up with a plan to actually get sufficient support for a new party or ranked choice voting we’re going to remain in this situation where Democrats are the only real option to the “left” of Republicans.

I completely agree about Mamdani, first good thing to happen to the Democratic party in a long time! Which is why it’s so telling to see how mad they are about it.

On a related note, thank you for the reasonable and well thought out response. All the best to you my friend.

I can’t speak for everyone but for me personally I’m less angry about the whole “both sides are the same” argument than I am about the total lack of a plan over what to do about it. I agree with what you just said but it gets really old hearing it from people who seemingly think that simply saying the line is enough to actually effect change. Absent of a plan it really feels more like a conspiracy to divide the left than a path towards real change.

Fuck man this is hilarious. I just want to share with everyone but I don’t know anyone who would get it so instead I’m just gonna sit here chuckling to myself about it.

Tell 'em about the scalps

I remember a lot of similar arguments about how ubiquitous Flash was when mobile devices were first taking off. Not saying it will be easy or even likely not saying it will never happen is a bit of an assumption.

There’s actually a company called Helion which is trying to skip the steam turbine step completely with fusion energy. Although generally speaking you’re correct, they’re kind of the exception that proves the rule.
