And theyre jackasses for that. It's a civic duty. Go write in Mickey mouse. But you should be voting regardless.

And if you don't then you can just stfu about anything because you never did the bare minimum to change anything.

The person you're responding to thinks they're a political savant and know everything. Best to ignore. Even when they've been proven wrong they adjust and pretend they knew all along.

It's not the stupid voters. It's the lazy fucks who decided not to vote at all.

Hope they are ready to get fucked because that's what their inaction brought about.

And their dumbasses will get fucked by trump just the same. Congrats to them.

You guys think the dems really care. They'll be fine. But hey, act like youre really sticking it to them. Im sure theyre so hurt and won't make ends meet now.

I mean, we can blame the DNC some. But we should definitely be blaming Trump voters and non-voters.

The reverse side of this (that the Onion should do next) is:

"Oh yeah. I didn't go out and vote. Surely the 30th time in a row means the DNC will learn their lesson and then promote leftist policy like I want!"

The fuck it is.

Someone on reddit (yes I know) put it well so I'll just copy pasta-

If you pay attention to any of the teaching subreddits you'll see a common refrain. When students aren't paying attention it is deemed the teacher's fault by administration and parents because the teacher should be able to make the class fun or interesting. Those in power don't hold the students responsible for learning - it is the teacher's job not only to teach but to make the students want to learn.

It is strikingly similar to the way many people talk about civics. It is the Democrats' job not only to govern, but to make voters want to vote. But, that is not how it is supposed to work. Everyone has the responsibility to vote. It is only the candidate's job to convince you to vote for them while you are at the polls.

The idea that a candidate has to make you want to vote in the first place is absolute nonsense. It's a civic responsibility. People are just too lazy. A student who doesn't take advantage of the opportunity to get an education is shooting themself in the foot. A citizen who doesn't take the opportunity to participate in an election is shooting themself in the foot.

People shouldn't wait to be inspired to go vote. They should do it as a matter of course.

They should be smart enough to vote for the one who gets closest to their needs. If they're not a complete moron that is.

The car is moving in one direction or another. It'd be smart to at least move it in the direction you think it should go.

But they aren't wrong.

Maybe people should vote every single time then things would improve. But theyre not so they won't. Congrats on the own goal.

Enjoy hell, dumbass.

If youre so fucking stupid as to not vote while a fascist is running then you deserve everything and more.

People need to realize this isn't fucking Christmas and you simply pick the least bad option or you end up here. At least those lazy fucks can feel smug while we're all in the shit.

Dumb fucks.

You think they care?

You and I are the ones dealing with the fallout, not them.

Fuck the people who didn't come out. Period.

Poor take. Truthfully, the people want hate. That's what trump ran on and promised.

This isn't about policy or likeability or whatever. This is what people want and they proved it. Stop blaming the Democrat party and blame what this country and its people are instead.

Nightly mobile URL bar (sh.itjust.works)

Anyone else hate this? I don't want a dumbed down bar. If Im on the homepage, I want to know. Same as if I'm on a subpage.

This is in reference to Mozilla changing the URL to ALWAYS show only the domain. Absolutely terrible IMO. As for the double tall menu now? That is mostly fine.

At least give me an option to see the full url.

Unsure if this is the place to ask or not but figured it was closest to it.

Basically I am looking to make an AIO retro gaming PC. Main goal is to have one simple box hooked up to the TV so my friends and I can game without having to swap discs and consoles all the time. Would probably use mostly DS3 (or 4?) controllers hooked up with USB or via BT.

I know lemmy doesn't much care about piracy but this is all just to play games/consoles we legally own. Would include PS1-3, Nintendo, SNES, N64, Gamecube (think that is all we have).

I think https://batocera.org/ has been mentioned, Lakka (maybe this is more for pis?), and EmuDeck has been mentioned. Basically looking for the easiest distro to throw on a PC with a nice UI (can be launched via kb/mouse, all the same to me) that has the emulators built in and just needs the ROMs.

Basically I'm looking to get some underwear that fits these specs so my onebag journey is a bit easier.

  • lightweight
  • keeps odor down (like merino wool, etc.)
  • can also be used for sports/athletics purposes (maybe like an under armour brief)
  • boxer style (not boxer brief but that might be ok too)

I don't know if Smartwool merino ones fit the bill or if there are any better options (either cheaper or just overall better, etc.)
