Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•But wait... now who will the Democrats blame for their refusal to do anything that actually helps the People?
11·16 hours ago2028 seems probable, I’m hoping from everything we saw the last 12 years though makes there be a medicare for all or something similar out in place in 2029. Other changes definitely needed but if they land that… maybe 2032, but that’s so far away we have as close of a guess that the U.S. won’t be a nation by then
Edit: accidentally said 2009 instead of 2029, comical tho

151·18 hours agoThere is a reason that Trump said he was going to veto everything for the next 2 years if they lost midterms. They can’t pass bills without his signature or a few Republicans on board agreeing.

News@lemmy.world•Google will take away Search from schools that refuse "AI"
4·18 hours agoIt sounds like they are switching their AI tools in schools to opt-in, where the school chooses for their network? Not sure how that is set up but I mean… What would be bad about that?

politics @lemmy.world•James Talarico turns Texas blue in historic win for Democrats
15·1 day agoYeah if you look at 2000 in particular Bush “won” by .01%.
If you are familiar with that election that is when Al Gore won the popular vote in the U.S., a recall was called in Florida twice and conspiracies surround how Bush’s own brother was the Governir of Florida.
Basically first count said Bush won by 1784 votes ~.009%. That triggered and automatic recount by the machines. Which came back saying he actually only won by 327 votes, meaning the room for error was wider than the election. His brother helped stall a manual recount, they sent it to the Supreme Court and the U.S. supreme court decided it didn’t matter because hand counting them would take time and awarded all 25 elector votes to Bush, making him President of an election he had not one neither the population, nor possibly the electors… But we’ll never know.

14·1 day agoFlorida has gone to the right in the last 10 years but before that they always swung back and forth.
Like if you look at who Florida voted for, it was pretty much who won president except the Trump 2020 election.

20·1 day agoThey were saying Kansas’s was like 1930-1939 or some shit, yet they appear to have actually put one in according to the numbers out so far. Crazy to think 2 World Wars, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq (multiple times), (should mention all the South America shit but the list is getting to long) never considered a change but now something has sparked some kind of change for them

61·1 day agoI’m over here wondering how Mississippi is so close

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.worldtoHome Improvement@lemmy.world•What should I be looking at to replace this valve and hose
11·2 days agoSo I’m a paranoid person, if they don’t already have the parts for the replacement I would question how long they would take to acquire after turning the water off… Because while the hot water tank in theory shouldn’t drain anything, if others start trying to wash hands, clean dishes or take a shower the water from the tank would still come out and then you are heating lower amounts of water and air in the tank.
So the what could go wrong always has me cut the breaker to the hot water heater before I shut off the water main.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you laid your own eggs daily would you eat them?
1·2 days agoYeah I mean if you don’t like them, you probably shouldn’t.
I on the other hand don’t mind poached eggs, id just need a lot of toast lol

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you laid your own eggs daily would you eat them?
4·2 days agoI imagine if you don’t add butter/cheese and skip over the eating them with bacon or sausage they couldn’t be to bad for you.
Also if the eggs have cholesterol in them, would that not come from you? I don’t know how that chemistry would work out but I’d figure it would be a net loss if it comes out of you, nothing has 100% efficiency.

Technology@lemmy.world•iPhones Running iOS 26 Are Freezing FaceTime Calls When They Detect NudityEnglish
241·2 days agoThis is actually do to government policies being put in place in the U.K., Australia and such. In those countries if a user has a child account (under 13 years old) certain safety features are turned on by default now in those countries, and the parent can choose to turn them off. If your account is over 18 years old, has a credit card attached to it, or I think there is a couple other ways it will automatically assume you are over 18 and you don’t have to prove it (otherwise you would have to scan your ID to get your Apple account to have you listed as an adult). In the U.S. you don’t have to prove it, and it is opt in by the users.
So it’s a catch 22, I think it should be opt in every where, but no one is winning a political campaign on saying 12 year olds should be able to send or receive nudes without their parents knowinh about it.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•People who use AI are actual NPCs
1·2 days agoYeah that comment seems to indicate using an AI summary and some kind of quick response to emails so they can get back to their kids/family as reason they shouldn’t live. There are problems with using llms for shit, but blanket statements about them make people seem foolish.
Actually I bought I a 1/3 horsepower craftsman garage door opener for my father and helped him install it because my mother didn’t trust him to do it when i was 16 (says a lot about my mother’s trust of her husband) but that was more than 20 years ago now. Garage door has to be rated for 175mph (281kph) winds because they live in Florida for building codes. Never had an issue since.
Craftsman tools used to be great years ago, and sold by a company called sears “now bankrupt” but basically had a policy that was if you bought a wrench of x size and it broke, they would replace it without a receipt with the same or newer model they sell now. Then battery powered tools came out and they obviously had to change their policies, but still non electric tools was the same. 9mm socket, bring in the broken one, no questions
I left reddit years ago, and am not familiar with the sub, but what’s it about? Are you going to tell me that my craftsman c3 19.2volt batteries are to old, lol. Because I’m amazed every time I need to use them and they still charge and work for the small tasks I ask of them. I must have got them between 2006-2008 maybe?

Political Memes@lemmy.world•I can't believe I'm praising them but credit where it's due I guess.
42·3 days ago… They are the #1 exporter to Israel and #1 supporter of Israel, they are just smart enough to shut their mouth. Everything Israel has done could be stopped by China in a day, but that doesnt make them profits. If China sanctions Israel, no more missiles fly, yet China doesn’t? … Why? Because it benefits them to allow the U.S. to show their true colors. So in truth, every life lost in Palestine is because China prefers the U.S. to look bad then keep kids alive.
I want to build on what rose said.
Privacy here does not exist. If everyone can see, then everyone can see…
We are here for avoidance of corporate ownership and how they directly exploit us. There is 0 protections against them expoiting us really. (But us)
We block who we want to not see, they will still see you. If a stalker chased you, you block them, you won’t see them, and a mod hopefully will help, but they are smarter to not… Because they aren’t blocking IP addresses, they are blocking a username which any new one can come from anywhere… so what’s best?
Society rejecting a person means more than a mod rejecting one. I’m sure many want them blocked/banned/gone, it really it’s stupid. Keep them where they are, identify them, and recogze a person as what they are.
I don’t want to know Trump is called Paul Tommorow, I want to recognize a rapist by his name. Ban him, he comes back as Paul
















Hopefully 100+ new people trying to join congress in 2028
