In general, I agree that voting for a person isn’t going to bring about the change that I am sure we both wish to happen, but I would like to say that the choice for most blue MAGA people isn’t about that?
The choice for them is voting or staying at home, as for them, a third-party vote is akin to picking the couch. For a lot of them, the mask-off MAGA movement restricting abortion and further eroding minority rights is still too much to bear to not vote blue. In general, most people on the left I talk to still vote in spite of the fascist-adjacent rhetoric.
Yes, you’d be right to say that harm reduction is futile, and a line has to be drawn somewhere, but fuck me if I choose to live with the guilt of voting morally than picking the option I deem helpful to the most amount of people realistically.
You are framing the issue to read the way you want it to be read. The customization and software options I am currently using, I have been able to make 90% of it work with a rooted phone and a combination of many open source tools and more. Now I get 100 % without theming breaking randomly, bluetooth being stable, not having to reset the phone every time I update to a new version, and more random issues I had with banking apps and others. I have control over my device stop dooming lmaooo. People use devices that fit their needs.
To give you a second opinion from the other guy, I’ve had quite a few Samsungs in a row at this point. From Galaxy S2 to S23Ultra skipping years between every purchase.
They are effectively the premium vendor of Android, at least for western audiences. The midrange has some good ones, but other companies do well there too. At the high end, Samsung might lose out a bit to google on images of people, but the phones Samsung sell are well built, have a long support life, have lots of features that usually end up being imported to AOSP and/or Google’s own version of Android. The last few generations are the Apple of Android. The AI features they’ve added can be run on device if you want, and idk what the other guy is talking about, but the AI features aren’t that obnoxiously pushed on my device, the S23 Ultra. I have some things on, most things off. Then again, I’ve used HTC for a few years and iPhone for two weeks, so except for helping my dad with his Pixel 6a while that device lasted, I’ve not really tried other brands. The added customization on Samsung is kind of a problem for me, because I don’t feel like changing brands after being able to customize so much out of the box.
And I’ve never had issues connecting to a simple Windows computer, given that the phone has always been able to use the normal Plug-and-play driver that is there already. If you have a macbook like I do, it’s a bit cringe, but that’s a macbook issue moreso.
In Kosovo the majority is Albanian so they would say Merkure.
So when faced with facts you just turn away. I mean, I’ll even concede that some of the member states didn’t hold elections and therefore, we have no statistics on them. Not every facet of your enemy can be unreasonably demonized. Not every element of Soviet life was as bad as you think, and it’s totally fair to say that the lower socioeconomic class was harmed by the dissolution.
In the aftermath of the dissolution oligarchs did dismantle a lot of the social security nets that existed and concentrated a lot of wealth.
I can just as easily shit on how Norwegian social security has been harmed by for-profit initiatives on the back of 8 years of Høyre and Frp rule.
It’s not revisionist what do you mean? It’s a very normal fact that is literally even easy to wiki.

I mean… the Soviet Union was illegally dissolved and as far as I remember, the people didn’t want the dissolution to happen. A lot of tomfooleries happened after that and many former soviet countries did lose protections for their least economically safe population.
This is not a defense of the Soviet Union, but dealing with the first statement you wrote.
I installed PopOS this week. Let’s see if my experiment works better than this experiment from Microsoft.
Bro we got a lot of career politicians that have had their families intrinsically tied to our political sphere for ages. Also we have an insane revolving door of people being in politics and doing “lobbying” depending on the way the wind blows. There was also a bigger article with the actual stats on how often this has happened but I can’t find it. Anyway …

Republicans and random democrats somehow saving the Biden presidency from missteps, cool cool.
Can’t focus on any useful bills, btw.
Fantastic adaptation. Finished God Emperor earlier this month and had a blast with this. I think most of the changes were good to remove the campy nature of Alia going full on demon baby.
So many beautiful shots, and it felt amazing to see the first sandworm scene for Paul look exactly like I expected it to.
Bravo
I got a samsung galaxy s23 ultra. Battery and stylus are dope, camera is fun to use, but it’s slightly too big.
If they are voting in the primary, I doubt they will skip the general election. It’s more than likely a reminder to the administration that their voter base is not happy with the current decision making. If they are protesting stuff like this, they are most likely D voters anyway (over 90 % of D voters are pro-ceasefire vs 53? % for the R voterbase.
Yeah, like the sad case with the teachers a few years back. Confirmed my personal view that Rødt and maybe SV are the only parties I’d like to vote. AP really betrayed LO and the teacher’s unions in general.
Should be possible to add to steam as a non steam game etc? Sucks to do it in a roundabout way, but yeah
Maaan can Serbia just recognize Kosovo and be done with it. The war was like 25 years ago at this point fuck off…

Honestly everytime I have to feel proud for sailing I dance like an idiot while the magnet links are being being pasted on the real debrid
Mehdi Hassan is amazing, what are you talking about.
