Have I not seen both Harris and Walz in rural areas almost every day lately going into small shops and union factories... putting tons of money and energy into swing states and states not normally considered in play for the Democrats? I don't remember seeing either of them spending much energy going to Manhattan, Los Angeles, San Diego, etc. that I remember. I've heard them both talk about rural areas mostly and being incredibly important and listen to their concerns.

The US is huge, they are two people, it's impossible for them to visit every small town.

I'd consider from the other direction. If I constantly farted all day, and I had the option of concentrating 99% of those farts into once daily solid waste deposit, I'd be quite excited about the potential of my future social life.

I mean, they're on FB, so ya, they probably thought something like that, if their thoughts even went beyond the words themselves.

It's like imagining what a lizard thinks about you, it's easy and fun to project your intelligence on it, this is what you're doing here. You're projecting your intelligence and logic on others apparently without that capacity. Those FB people didn't think about what their words meant any more than a lizard wonders about your nature.

Y’all are on the precipice of finding out firsthand the difference between “OMG I’m so oppressed

Sounds like the perspective of a privileged person who's life hasn't been in danger for years because of this person. Why is it bad to celebrate the misfortune of a person who has caused massive harm and is promising to eradicate your kind?

Studying the bible is what started me on the path to atheism.

Larry Finger, your work has made a significant positive impact on my life and I'm sure many others. Thank you.

Now can you work on a driver to allow communication between the living and the dead?

You seem to have fundamental misunderstandings of how both masks and vaccines work. I recommend reviewing basic materials to avoid further embarrassment.

I get the sentiment, that we're not killing nature, just ourselves, but "nature" is not one thing. Killing nature amounts to humans causing incredible suffering to untold trillions of individual animals each with a lilfe, a consciousness.

I saw my Kitty suffocate due to embolism and had to put her down and it's no less of an awful event because it was a cat and not a human, it screwed me up and it was years ago. I imagine that level of needless suffering happening every day X 1 billion due to human greed and apathy.

This guy figured out how to turn the results of scientific experiments showing how it's possible to cool the temperature of a material below ambient temperatures by radiating heat into space using exotic or uncommon substances into something you can do yourself with easy to acquire and safe materials.

Anti-anarchist pretty much think

  • Anarchy = chaos

This is heavily promoted by mainstream media and language

  • Anarchists are pacifist

Many people seem unable to comprehend how a community might defend itself without a standing military and so assume we must be unwilling to defend ourselves.

  • Nothing can be accomplished without coercion

Because most of us have grown up within strict hierarchies coerced to do things we don't want, we have trouble imagining any other way.

  • Everyone is inherently a selfish asshole

This is probably projection in most cases

There's 2 types of right wingers, dumb ones and disingenuous ones.

Technically CD quality digital is superior, but the recording and mixing can have a lot to do with it. For example, it could be that an decades old Dark Side Of The Moon on vinyl (played on proper equipment) could sound better than a modern remastered CD with maximized loudness (See the "loudness wars").

This deserves some sort of funniest Linux problem award.
