I was thinking AT&T just provided whatever teleconference system they use
Everyone is a potential running mate of anyone during the primaries. We have no idea if she was even considered for that.
Except for Ted Cruz's 2016 hail Mary where he said Carly Fiorina would be his VP, hoping that would get him to beat Trump. Lol, Ted.
they literally just skipped the democratic part of choosing a nominee for it to be handed down like a crown
How about the fact that nobody mounts a serious challenge against an incumbent anyway, how is that any better? Is it because they were already elected in the general 4 years ago? Because Kamala was on that ticket, too. Oh, and nobody votes for the VP nominee in the primary stage, even if they are second in line. Heck, you kind of have to trust the presidential nominee on that front.
I wonder how he feels about the traffic Reddit gets from Google searches and if they should be giving that for free
To save everyone born after 1965 a click or two, the 1980 VP nominees were Bush Sr. and Walter Mondale. The latter lost in a landslide, so I'd assume that was the unpopular one.
I just woke up and saw this headline. My knee-jerk reaction was the same as yours, since I always hate stooping down to someone else's level like that.
Then I remembered Trump has been charged with many specific violations of the law and convicted of some of those charges already, and is only awaiting sentencing (thanks to the courts doing him so many favors, that wait keeps getting extended). We're good to call for him to be locked up at this point.
850TRY is currently about $26 USD, or about $.03 to a lira. Holy crap, I was there about 10 years ago and a lira was about $.50!

Absolutely. They've been doing the same to Biden for half a decade too and between the hand he was dealt (particularly post-covid recovery stuff that's been happening worldwide) and yes, his age, some of it is even believable to an unfortunately big chunk of the population.
A whale is just one animal. If I look at my driveway, I can see hundreds of ants. Why on earth would I look anywhere else if I wanted to see animals?
I always felt Elizabeth Warren was the real-world Lisa. Heck, even the name is a pretty close match.
Also, people say Joe Biden is the only one who beat Trump. Sure, but alternatively (and I think much more accurately) Hillary Clinton is the only (major) one who could lose to him. Didn't help that her email case was briefly reopened a week before the election.
It's relevant to the question of if she's old enough, which is a fair question given she's on the cusp. Even if only theoretically.
Thank you for being direct and not at all cryptic about what I'm missing here
They seem to build out the number of handicapped spots for the peak crowd amount, which makes sense. If I'm at Home Depot and it's 8PM, and there are maybe a dozen cars in the lot I could maybe see making a few spots handicap only during certain times?
The flip side is that it's only a few more steps for me. I'll survive
I've never understood why payments should turn into a basis for a social media platform as Venmo tries to be, but this use of that weird combination is something I'm ok with.
Not to my knowledge, but it was a secret informant and journalist who basically brought down Nixon. I'm not saying this story is or is not trustworthy, but I am saying this kind of reporting with anonymous but credible sources is nothing new.
Perhaps, but maybe a rumor that should be taken more seriously than what your weird neighbor down the street says.
Yes, it could be made up bullshit still but then you can look at the journalist themselves. Where do they work? Do you trust that source? Why or why not?
I borrowed a bunch of tables from friends for a garage sale last weekend, and gave them back yesterday.
My, how the tables have returned!
My daughter just took a full bottle - her second in a row. Then she fell asleep in my arms. Feels good .
Year and a half old. It may feel silly, but she's always been in the single-digit percentile, usually low-single-digits at that. She was born about 3 months premature, and after her weight gain stalling, they prescribed a medication with a side effect of increased appetite to give things a jump start. I think it's going to work 🙂
Anybody in this community? Why do onion cutting instructions say to make cuts horizontally?
So many instructions to cut an onion are essentially
- Cut off the top
- Peel
- Cut in half
- Cut horizontally (in parallel to the cut you just made)
- Cut vertically into strips from just shy of the bottom to top, with the bottom holding things together
- Cut vertically perpendicular to your last cuts to get little squares
On something like a potato, I'd understand it. You'll be cutting a 3-dimensional object along all 3 axes to get cubes. But as Shrek taught me, onions have layers. Why make that first set of horizontal cuts when the onion's natural layers do the same thing already, albeit a little bit curved?
Viewing logs after HA goes down?
Running on a Raspberry Pi 400
Lately my home has been dumb and unassisted at random times, and the HA app can't connect to my HA rpi server. Ditto when I go to homeassistant:8123 in a browser. I'm trying to see what's causing this, but the logs in app only show since last restart. Tried plugging my Pi into a monitor and getting something from the command line but not sure how to do the equivalent of a Linux tail or whatever. Searching was surprisingly unhelpful. Any advice?
Thanks much!
Why do so many Lemmy instances use weird TLDs?
I get that some instances use the domain + TLD to make a word, like lemm.ee or to an extent, sh.itjust.works. But I've seen so many TLDs I had no idea existed, like .world, .zone, .social, and yes .works as well.
Is there any real reason for that? Trying to look cool or kinda underground-y? Cheaper and more varied domain options? Something actually kinda functional?
Interestingly, I started on vlemmy.net because I was a scared Reddit refugee and the .net TLD gave me comfort. Then it vanished a few days later without a trace. So here I am on lemmy.world

I originally created this community to post a few of my own projects and get a few others, but found retrolemmy before I could post anything. I'll still keep my lemmy.world account and all, but in the interest of keeping themes within instances, I think retrolemmy is a better fit. Admin, feel free to nuke this community if you wish! I don't see a way to on my end.
