Speak for yourself. The only mod slop i consumed was Tribes and Unreal Tournament

Hello serious, I’m dad

People are just tired of brain rot in general

After 2016, the DNC already halved their influence. I’d argue they are a necessary evil to prevent various scenarios where bad actors try to hijack a primary.

But more generally, the entire point of a political party is to express political preferences via a platform, and to back candidates which support that platform. I don’t really understand this idea otherwise… if a dozen Republicans decided to run as democrats to “troll” the primary, you’d want the party to step in, right?

In 2008 Obama was the outsider candidate but he was actually popular enough that the party had no choice but to back him in the end. That’s how the process is supposed to work.

I’m sure several democrats will run?

She will run into the same problems as Clinton. The right has spent a decade attacking her at every opportunity so that she is a polarizing figure, whether she deserves it or not.

Hey you leave my mom out of this!

“Right, so you see, when a conductor is passed through a magnetic field, an electromotive force is produced, and this force can perform work, which can in turn be used to represent probabilistic information…”

This isn’t as limiting as it seems at first glance though. Sending pictures of a true one time pad cipher doesn’t rely on the security of the transport or the camera. From there you can choose to make a compromise of convenience and get to things like Private key cryptography where the ciphers are done via basic xor arithmetic you can do by hand.

It can’t be. The entire concept is a Trojan horse to kill the anonymous internet.

You will struggle to get serious answers here. But many leftists crave validation more than they crave good ideas. Not all of them, mind you, but on places like ML anyone outside the orthodoxy inevitably just gets shouted down.

Perhaps but I’m not sure what that has to do with my comment about internet haters.

Racism is when criticism of Russian imperialism.

Unlike Lemmy, which is a platform for the most racist tankies?

Just in general, people on the internet are haters. I don’t really have a strong opinion either way, but Bluesky could cure world hunger and make all dogs live 100 years and people on the internet would hate it.

Donate to abortion access funds in people’s name.

Then send them a card saying “I got you an abortion for Christmas.”

Are they really using the term “reskeet?”

It certainly paints a very specific mental image.

Remember voat?

I don’t mind it when it’s done well, just as some more diverse gameplay to change things up. The problem is that it’s often done in the most annoying way possible where it just becomes a dumb timing puzzle that you need to memorize in sections and it ends up being almost impossible to do it right the first time.
