Canada (from US.) I like where I live, I just don’t like the government.

If the Communists are willing to do what they say we need to do. This is a big “if” that I don’t see any evidence for.

If they used Mastodon or Lemmy, those people would be less tense.

If they had more normies on it, maybe. But Lemmy seems to be composed primarily of the tensest people in the world to me.

TikTok I’d wait for evidence, but Elon absolutely boosted people like Tate

As an amateur who used it for a year before switching to FL Studio, I could only recommend it as a way to explore DAW-based music creation for free before switching to something paid and better.

It’s just not feature complete enough, missing basic features like VST3 support (or VST support at all in the Mac version,) time signature changes, sample manipulation capabilities, or in-DAW recording, and it’s built-in effects plugins are overly hard to use. I’ve also seen claims it’s rendering engine is flawed and causes a minor distortion effect, but I can’t verify that myself.

The thing is, we know Nintendo does have in-house developed emulators that they used for Virtual Console and then NSO and the Classic Edition.

It’s fairly likely they didn’t take the effort to port those to PC for the museum, but still.

All stereotypes are bad, but as a mixed black person, I’m frankly more worried about the “black people are violent” stereotype.

My city’s most recent mayoral election is arguably a better argument for FPTP sucking than US presidential elections. The progressives were split between two candidates so we got the moderate, who’s pro-car in a city where people move for walkability and is painfully clearly trying to get an inroads to national politics.

It’s better than the nearby, bigger city though. SHEESH.

NYC, San Francisco, and Santa Monica did it. A lawsuit Airbnb put forth to to block it in NYC got dismissed even.

Yeah the PBS hack was LulzSec

We need work to end the two party system, NOT work that demonizes people for making rational choices under current circumstances.

According to polling most Americans support stricter gun control measures but not a ban. As usual, it’s the Electoral College and FPTP (IMO, no country with either should be listed as a full democracy. Not USA, not UK, and not Canada.) Still, it is true that the gun issue is too often presented as binary (but I’d actually say this is just as common with foreigners arguing for gun bans as it is with Americans arguing against it.)

I’d give up gun control for America to no longer be allied with Israel.

Minecraft is mostly popular with people who were 5 - 12 years old 10 years ago.

Holy shit we found JD Vance’s Lemmy account

Who’s going to stop you?

Anyway, US politics affects the whole world. I hate a lot of the commentary coming from particular regions (Western Europe, Australia, Canada) but it still affects them.

Bloons TD 6.

I guess I have to contribute to popping bloons… somehow??? Idk.

Fascists provide easy (but often fake) answers to hard problems. Loneliness, the fear of replacement, that kind of thing.

I mean, if there wasn’t fourty years worth of context for why this is bad, I’d agree with it.

Like, it could mean infrastructure projects or a renewed investment in education or something. But alas it honestly just means “destroy and loot America by deceiving uneducated rural whites” at this point.
