  • Maybe they should let the people decide the candidate instead of a “coronation“ because it’s “her turn” or selecting the candidate because you didn’t have time for a primary. I swear if they pick Kamala again they might as well just dissolve the Democratic Party. I’m tired of this not actually listening to what the people are begging for and selecting these boring milquetoast candidates who won’t tell the billionaires or Israel to fuck right off. Find a candidate who will address things like housing, inflation, green energy, privacy, corruption, etc and you’ll win elections.








  • So I thought it would be interesting to pseudo assign this to electoral college votes. Anything red with positive approval votes R and anything blue vote D. The white I just split 50/50 but I highly doubt it would work like that since that means 50 percent disapprove and 50 percent approve ( well it’s likely more correct to say approve = disapprove… but you get the idea).

    Long story short: 441 vs 97. Typically this denotes a landslide.

    If the midterms are anything like this….

  • I’m not a windows hater per se, but I am for using the best tool for the job.

    And in my opinion windows is not the best tool for self hosting. There are things windows does work well for that meshes well with self hosting and that’s docker. Honestly I’d focus on that for a lot of reasons but primarily because it’s a very easy to deploy self contained way to provide services. And the differences between docker on windows and Linux is almost negligible.
