Well, those 2 parties have had a stranglehold on our entire lawmaking infrastructure since anybody currently alive was born. They've had a loooooong time to implement election rules and campaign finance laws that only benefit themselves at the expense of those smaller parties.

Yes. This is home-made out-of-band management, like HP's iLO, Dell's iDRAC, or generic IPMI. Not only is it a virtual KVM (keyboard/video/mouse), you can pass the host's power button through this device so you can remotely power on or reset a hung or powered-off system, or mount and boot from a virtual floppy or ISO to completely reinstall the remote system.

War on drugs.

War on AIDS.

War on middle class.

War on unbiased news.

Yes, push their poor people further into poverty and strengthen the conservative stranglehold on the state!

My understanding is that the US primaries are private affairs and the organisations can pick their candidates however they want. The democrats certainly did some unethical shit to snub Bernie in favor of Hillary, but I don't know if Primary shenanigans can qualify as the crime of election fraud (unless some of the states protect their primary elections in the same way they do for real elections).

Is this a concern with electric vehicles? I haven't heard of this being an epidemic that we even need to worry about.

Oh, nice. Yeah, I'm fine with my content being searchable on the great uneddit databases. That's just the nature of the internet -- anything you make public should be assumed to be forever public. It sounds like my deleted content won't be making Spez advertising dollars when people search my old subreddit haunts, which was my goal in deleting my stuff in the first place.

Yeah, one one hand, I don't get how this isn't straight-up human trafficking. On the other hand, I have a feeling Chicago and New York and all those other places are helping these people in a much more compassionate manner than they would have been handled in Texas, so there's at least that. I don't know what a good answer is to the whole situation, but at the moment, asylum seekers are getting better help than if they were thrown in Texas border cages.

Yeah, I don't see anything there about reddit undeleting their deleted posts/comments. Many of us burned our profiles to the ground when we left, but I hadn't heard of them reverting our edits. I would expect that news to blow up as much as the last time Spez did something like that (may the gods erase his soul and the people forget his name).

Do you have evidence or just conspiracy theory gossip?

I love it. I don't run across these OSes or distros every day, so when I see that my mom has version "23h2" of windows 11, I know it was last updated in the second half of 2023n so it must be recently patched. Likewise, if I run across an Ubuntu 23.10 install, it's not any older than October 2023, but the 18.04 deployment is a few years old.
