Try Tucker and Dale Vs Evil. It's a similar kind of horror comedy.

Also for more active hobbyists Harbor Freight can be improved to be good tools. Things like replacing a cheap drive belt with a better quality belt is all some of their tools need. Searching some tool blogs can tell you if a tool is fixable or just trash.

Kbin has upvote, downvote, and boost. Boost comes from the microblogging side, kbin does both content aggregation like Lemmy and microblogging like Mastodon. On the content aggregation side boost counts as 2 upvotes and it functions as normal for the microblogging side. Kbin.social is the only Kbin instance I used, I expect that it works the same on other Kbin instances and on Mbin but I don't know for sure.

Op is talking about accounts that upvote spam content. For the most part those accounts will be the spammer's alts that will be posting spam when the current account gets banned. Blocking them while they are still being used for vote manipulation means you wouldn't have to see their spam in the future.

That's way too much work. I just logged into my original account on kbin.social and tapped on the activity button to see votes before that instance went down. If I want to see votes again I can set up an account on any kbin or mbin instance in less than a minute and do the same thing.

Burger Time 1982

It was one of my first video games, we had it for the Atari 2600, and I have it on a RetroPi emulator. You are a chef and the stages are platforms with ladders between them similar to Donkey Kong. The platforms have hamburgers ingredients on them and you have to avoid the enemies and run over the ingredients to make them fall to the bottom. You have to build all of the burgers to win the stage.

We also have a problem on lemmy that there is a subset of users who think that votes are how you curate your feed. They downvote anything that they don't want to see instead of blocking communities that they aren't interested in.

Using scaled sorting really helps with getting smaller communities on the front page. I still see the political and news communities but I also see communities for cities and niche hobbies.

It’s crucial to note that our bias scale is calibrated to the political >spectrum of the United States, which may not align with the >political landscapes of other nations.

From their methodology page.

They aren't rating for any and all bias. They are rating for political bias within the context of the US political landscape.

He can't be Harris's VP. Two people from the same state can run on the same ticket but electors for the electorial college can't vote for two people from the same state as the elector. That means that no elector from California could vote for a Harris/Newsom ticket. Democrats cannot win in the electorial college without California.

I doubt he'll do anything much different before the election. Harris is going to try to run, at least in part, on the current administration's record so Biden actions will be constrained by the fear of hurting her campaign.

No elector may vote for 2 people from the elector's state. If the ticket is Harris Newsom then no elector from California can vote for that ticket. Dem's cannot win in the electoral college without California.
