Trump and Musk probably just bought up enough to put them ahead.

Yep me exactly too. Though I vote in a solidly blue state, it won’t change much but the dems have gotten better and all 3rd parties have gotten worse in recent years, so I have no problem voting dem this time just to take zero risks.

It won’t be long before the internet is just bots talking to each other and advertisers paying them to do so.

I vividly remember the Digg migration and Reddit is so very much like Digg these days.

Bieber for scale

Yeah this looks like it hertz.

Well never hurts to be over prepared unless you hate wasting food.

But I would like to point out that you were expecting each participant at an unrealistic 100% turnout to eat roughly 20 cubes of cheese each. That’s not including all the other food there. That’s the better part of a whole package of cheese each that they were just supposed to chunk down their gullets?

That’s still way too much food even if everyone came. And everyone never comes.

I’m 50 and really don’t watch movies almost at all any more. They tend to be so formulaic and too long to watch at home at night. If I’m going to watch something it will likely be episodic tv series. I do still play video games on the regular though.

I used Borland Turbo Pascal and C++ all through school and I have to agree, these were the most intuitive and efficient IDE’s I’ve used.

This was cringe even in the '90s.

I use iPhones but hate the fact that I pay 3x as much as these phones for a sub par experience. I tried WiFi sync and it was unusable.

I sync my music locally so I very much notice.

It’s 100% to push people to cloud services.

Most budget phones have usb 3.0 these days. Here’s 74 phones under $300 with it. Many have had it for a close to a decade already. This is a transparent ploy to force people onto cloud services by making local sync incredibly slow.

Music. Which I like to listen to on my frequent plane rides.

I can’t imagine who would ever pay $700 to upgrade from a ps5 for this.

If nothing else it enforces readable code which I think is a good thing.

It’s the lack of anti trust enforcement in the USA that causes this. There is little to no competition left in many markets.
