Yep. A third party candidate hasn’t gotten a single electoral college vote since George Wallace, and the only time a third party has done better than either a Democrat or a Republican was with Theodore Roosevelt and his Bull Moose party, which crushed Taft but got absolutely obliterated in turn by Wilson due to the spoiler effect.

Who would want to buy them? The only value a studio has without it’s IP is the devs, and you don’t need to buy the studio to acquire them.

Hacksmith on youtube uses playstation controllers for remote operation of their giant mechs.

Fucking same. Gives me the same vibe as OJ with pulp, ugh

To anyone that doesn’t believe in ghosts, which I assume is most people, it’s not really relevant? Like, obviously if there’s any “questionable” stains on the wall or something still I wouldn’t be on board, but as long as the house was properly renovated afterwards I don’t see an issue.

As someone who still semi-frequents reddit, it’s mostly bots, more and more of which are clearly using some form of ChatGPT or another LLM. It’s actually kinda absurd, I’ve seen many a comment chains where it’s just different bots replying to each other, both pretending to be real people.

This isn’t solely for Trump as an individual for one thing, but also I’m pretty sure Alex Jones holds the record with the $1.5 BILLION he personally owes the Sandy hook families.

I can’t help you with this in the general sense… but trust me, if they block you, you won. That’s a full retreat on their part.

It’s not just that. Ovens cook with heat originating outside of the food, so the skin cooks(and cracks) before the inside gets hot enough to detonate. Microwaves on the other hand cook by exciting water molecules inside the food, and since the inside of the potato has way more moisture than the skin, it heats up much faster than the skin does.

DVDs were also commonly used as external data storage prior to flash storage becoming the predominant method. Anyone still have their spindle of dvds with a Win XP backup lying around?

Blu-ray doesn’t have that advantage. The only major commercial applications it has been used for is movies and games, and games are already breeching the size that even a 4k blu-ray can hold, and have long since required faster data transfer speeds than blu-ray is capable of(this is why even with physical games, the game has to be installed to the console)

Ehh… as someone that has seen it, it’s still not that big a deal. Sure, in still frames the difference is really noticeable, but when you’re actually immersed in the movie and the action and you’re not just scanning the scene with picture quality in mind, it really makes no difference to me.

$17/hr with a 2 hour commute is considered a dream job in your area? Goddamn

“You can’t. You had literally all of eternity to ask your final question, you could’ve used some of that time to come to terms with your death, but instead you immediately used up your question(and your remaining time) trying to cheat death. Goodbye”

A lot of us came from reddit where it was considered taboo to use emojis.

This is blatantly not true. It’s what won him the election.

Harry Potter is rather controversial in left wing circles nowadays due to the author being a major terf, and lemmy is definitely a left wing site. That’s likely where the downvotes are coming from.

For what it’s worth upvotes and downvotes don’t appear consistently across instances. On the instance I’m on your HP post has 8 upvotes.

It bothers me it’s so hard to find one that doesn’t include it, but it doesn’t feel like it’s bloating the price to me, if that’s what you mean. Besides the insistence on the smart shit, TV’s have constantly been getting better, bigger, and yet still cheaper.

It’s unfortunate, but if anything the smart features are part of why they’re staying so cheap. The TV costs the same to make no matter what, but when every company under the sun is paying a fee to have their app baked into the tv, you don’t have to charge the end-user as much to make the same profit. Not to mention the treasure trove of data you can collect(and sell) from the ones who connect it to the internet.

Outdoor televisions usually aren’t very good besides being bright and weather resistant.

No, Sceptre is an independent company. ONN is Walmarts in-house electronics brand.
