US runs trillions in debt and even if for a second we assume US is 100x size of Canada, we're still better off proportionally. Everybody, exhale. 😃
well after Pelosi torpedoed AOC there's little surprise. That person is dead set against progressives tanking them at every opportunity. She is made of steel and were effective in some things that were net positive but she's wielding too much power with Democrats and is virtually unchecked.
Liberals liberallybsupport corporations, Conservative conserve corporation's money while NDP wants to get to power an playing "hard to get".... in other words right at this moment nobody truly stands for workers rights. NDP are the closest to even begin defending workers while the other two are good at playing to fears and paying lip service to workers. We're not where US going to be come Jan, but we're rapidly chasing them
that's just the thing comservatives turned the entire system into game "us vs them" and liberal joimed in a bit later as they lack the capacity to redefine the game. Progressives get shunned by their respective wings and orthodoxy gets entrenched making it even more of "us vs them". I'd love to find a way to abolish parties and force representatives to actually represent all people from their electorate area... but I'm a dreamer.
so he's not president yet and already backing out of his election pledges... we can only hope it'll piss off his electorate, but it won't, they'll just get angrier at opponents
this is why democrats will keep on losing. Aggressive campaigning against progressives. That's how they tanked Berny who had a real shot at trump at the time. They have mothballed trump indictments when they've had a chance to impeach him, they have gagged them this campaign and result is for everyone to see... Pelosi is a very mean and very capable machine of destryction when it comes to progressives and their ideas
the most dangerous assumption either camp is making is that AI is and end-solution. Whre 8n fact it's just a tool. Like invented steam machines they can do a lot more than humans can but they are only ever useful as tools that humans use. Same here AI can have value as a tool to digest large chunks of data and produce some form of analysis providing humans with "another datapoint" but it's ultimately up to humans to make the decision based on available data.
..afraid of hostile take-over of OpenAI by Musk...
I'm not convinced what you run into is a specific podman issue. It's a resource issue and configuration issue likely. "vanila" podman with proper rootless containers will run as much workload as machine can handle from my experience. My company costomers seem to be running production workloads with it just fine.
Oh wait, by rootless container you really meant running podman rootless? still don't see an issue though. What specifically are you doing? I mean, what's the configuration and what's the workload?
"afford fewer and fewer things" needs correction: most "things" are being turned into "services" so people end up owning nothing and being forced to overpay for "service" they never asked for
you'd be one of few. Most people don't mind compensating others for services, but when services turn to extortion and lock-in with sub-par digital content players piracy becomes a lot more attractive. Not many can afford 4-5 subscriptions (with Prime you need sun-subscriptions too) and all of it's expense and complexity. Singular aggregate platform with a cost equaling today's single subscription cost would probably eliminate good chunk of "piracy". We can only watch so much in a day so given that streaming companies price things out and provision for that there's no more impact on them if multi-service subscription costs the same as a single-service and it will reduce need for piracy, as it's also a hassle to look for content and get all twitchy whether you going to get trojaned or swatted for doing so.
Based on experience south of border or in AB - all the dissent goes out the window and everybody falls in line come election time. I'd like to believe that any of the major Canadian parties has members genuinely caring for their constituencies but given our electoral system and governing system that is out the window as hyper-partisanship is a natural step in current system's evolution. Parties prevent democracy by forcing their members to follow party line and not their electorate needs.
they can have PP we can even gift-wrap him and send as a Xmass gift, just please no returns.
it's not his picks, it's POTUS45: https://lemmy.world/post/22065845
Facts:
- POTUS45 knew it was a one-time grift so there are no repercussions for him for abandoning his electorate.
- POTUS45 repeatedly stated his desire to help Israel and not even once hinted at idea of peace for Gaza.
- Haris clearly was trying to evade direct answers to Gaza questions which left significant room for after-election change
- Democrats suck (at messaging, at fighting back and at playing hard ball)
- Putting up ultimatums in the middle of election is doomed to failure. I can't recall one instance where it was successful. I can recall however when existing administration, outside of election cycle, yielded to public pressure...
so with just more obvious facts on the table the entire notion of giving Dems middle finger and literally helping Republicans win was not merely misguided but malicious. Being surprised by the outcome does not speak highly of people involved and their priority. If their priority was stopping the bloodshed they would've acted differently, by all means that priority was mainly middle finger to Dems.
I am acutely aware that people are dying and between two administrations the difference is at what scale and whether public has any sway with administration. Present choice out of the gate pointed for larger scale suffering and no public input.
US elections are not pragmatic - they are spectacle of emotions, which is why public elects showman.
Samsung: Exynos problems are due to "too short" 52-hour working week in Korea - NotebookCheck.net News
(para)quoting History of the world part 1: ...f@ck samsung?
But seriously? Working people into their graves? For what? For "MORE" that nobody needs or wants, just to fill landfills with more yesteryear devices? Ugh. Capitalism was fun for a while but now it really became very self-centered : profit for the sake of profit whereas we need to move humanity forward, end poverty ( because technically we can ) and start looking at each other with respect and be able to live our lives with dignity.
Biden could've used Trump's own tool - presidential impunity and either fired judges or plain locked up Trump or worse, first: forcing republicans repeal the law, two eliminating threat, and three - potentially painted as villain in history. I still marvel at how little Dems care for "the idea" and how much they care about their own bottom line 🙁
well, it's not just Teams and not just MS. Have you worked with Zoom lately? I do agree that Teams occupies that very special dark space in my heart right next to hate and loathing.
couple of details though: Canada right wing is a long ways away from US for the most part. Also AB almost got NDP elected last election which is, after 40yrs of unbreakable concervative hold on province is telling. So yeah right wing is correct but you've got to pay attention to nuances. Calgary and South of Calgary are good places to live with decent infrastructure. You go most places BC you'll be surrounded by a lot of conservative minded folk. In both provinces I've been surrounded by conservative minded folk which were persistently calling POTUS45/47 a nutcase. So... don't get too hung up on labels.
...so whoever didn't vote Haris effectively voted trump... we've been saying it along that all of that moaning about Dems would lead to Rep win. here it is on display
Does lemmy allow to search for my past upvotes?
I've tried several clients now, and unlike Reddit clients I cannot locate any of the posts/comments I've upvoted in the past? Is that a bug/feature of the platform?
Wine gaming broken on Fedora 37 with Wine 8.12?
I just found out that sometime in the last month or so while doing regular updates Wine got bumped to 8.12... (likely from 8.0) and my games have gone haywire: Neverwinter Nights and Diablo2 would kind of start but then halt. Switching to desktop and back unblocks games for the next few seconds and then things repeat.
I've downgraded wine to 7.12 and things are working back.
Question: should I have done some migration step for 8.12 to work properly or is it even a known issue?
I am using PlayOnLinux for Diablo2 with System Wine and Vanilla System wine for NWN.
