Oh jeez
  • A lot of international usage maybe?

    I do see a lot of America and American hate on here, I agree with a lot of criticism of America and it's people but it does get heavy into generalizations on the latter end.

  • What to do with an Android spare smartphone (no sim card)?
  • Not sure how easy this is anymore, but when I was a teen I was flashing my friends phone with cyanogenmod and it died midway through, bricked and wouldn't charge either.

    We opened it up, cut open a charging cable and manually attached them to the battery terminals with the battery removed until it turned back on and we were able to flash stock and back to cyanogenmod lmao

  • Tesla loses EV market dominance, falls below 50% in US [unit sales in 2024Q2]
  • But demand is sti higher, it's just mitigating factors, I want an EV but I live in an apartment so I can't easily charge it, so I went with a hybrid instead as an in-between till I own a home and the infrastructure and battery tech improves.

  • I wouldn't say supply has caught up with demand, there's a lot of other factors that contribute to people WANTING an EV, but being aware that it's not feasible yet for them due to things like average price, charging access issues, etc.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • I see your point, I guess my stance is a lot of those feel like neolib small steps, which aren't nothing for sure, just hard to say they're actually progressive, as most progressive ideals I align with require much larger changes to structure in general. Neolib policies are partially what brought us to this place (of course the GOP ghouls tearing it all down every other presidency doesn't help...) I think a lot of it ends up feeling like the dems promise a lot and then under deliver every time, but they clearly don't cheerlead the wins they do make enough either. Feels like they're constantly just trying to fight off right wing narratives instead, which is clearly just a waste of time as they will misrepresent and straight lie as much as possible.

  • What union did Biden openly side with? If it's the rail one I'm thinking of, he broke the strike and forced them back... So...

    What other progressive policies has Biden implemented? (Serious question)

    I do know about the student loan stuff, which was killed, did raise the minimum wage for federal workers, which is nice but also just a small improvement. Roe v Wade is out now (not directly his fault ofc) and I haven't seen any overall improvements/changes on that front.

  • Bernie would have been better on literally every front and he was fucked by the DNC and the elites.

    Saying Biden has been the most progressive president is honestly hilarious to me, like did you know FDR existed? Ever looked into some of the glorious policies in that time?

    Trump is literally a wannabe evil dictator, so yeah Biden is clearly the better candidate, but let's be real here please.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • It wasn't out of the norm, it's just up till that point all the gaffs were smaller audience and MSM and online CTR types constantly saying things like "he's got a stutter!" or "you're just ageist!" and the debate was much more obvious and watched by enough that those deflections aren't working anymore.

    I held my nose and voted Biden last election BTW, we just should have faced the facts that he's clearly been in cognative decline and put in place steps to have a successor prepared, but the party decided it had to be Biden and here we are.

  • Hi there

    Read through some of your posts and thought it was an interesting idea.

    I'm not much of a programmer myself, played around a bit in Java when I was younger for Runescape Private Servers but never really able to get into coding fully. I have done some light photoshopping/GIMP and used to play around with video editing software. I like to think I'm pretty technology inclined as I'm the "pc repair" person for my family/friends.

    I like linux but mostly run Windows because gaming and ease of use. Though where I work I'm the "Linux guy" (not saying much tbh as a lot of people know literally nothing about linux).

    I play around with music production in FL Studio and Ableton, not great at it but I have some stuff online with a thousand listens or so https://blend.io/zvyyr

    Politically I'm very left (for the US at least), I like communism in theory and have read a good bit about it (not as much as others who are very into it though). Supported Bernie Sanders in 2016 and 2020.

    I'm intelligent enough to know that I know very little about a lot.

    I'm sure you could find more about me online, I've never been especially private but moved away from standard social media a while ago.

    OK question, why is it called "she hacked you?"

    Emojis and Lemmy

    Does anyone else think having emojis as a response to a comment/thread would be a neat addition instead of only upvote/downvote?

    Reddit seemed to sorta do that with awards but thats not quite what I'm suggesting.

    Something similar to GitHub for instance, except we keep the upvote downvote system as-is.

    This would hopefully discourage the use of upvote/downvote as a "I like/dislike this" button while also adding the ability to more accurately express the emotion the post/comment illicited

    Additionally, there are a lot of people who are mostly just lurkers and have no desire to post, but they want to be able to emote further then just a upvote/downvote but DON'T want to actually post a comment like "I love this" or "You're so right" or even just commenting an emoji, because making a comment is a whole extra action that makes them visible, opens up to comments or upvotes/downvotes.
