I'm not even sure if a sandwich is a sandwich.

Honestly, a little grass makes everything better. I'm a fan of putting grass in brownies, but still, no beans, please.

Lady, I don't know how to break this to you, but this is a shitpost community. There's no room here for facts and logic. Touch grass.

Well, those 2 parties have had a stranglehold on our entire lawmaking infrastructure since anybody currently alive was born. They've had a loooooong time to implement election rules and campaign finance laws that only benefit themselves at the expense of those smaller parties.

Yes, push their poor people further into poverty and strengthen the conservative stranglehold on the state!

My understanding is that the US primaries are private affairs and the organisations can pick their candidates however they want. The democrats certainly did some unethical shit to snub Bernie in favor of Hillary, but I don't know if Primary shenanigans can qualify as the crime of election fraud (unless some of the states protect their primary elections in the same way they do for real elections).

I wish! I've got the hardware to support it, but neither of the two ISPs available at my house support IPv6.

Oh yeah, I'm also keeping a eye on that. Every time I see nvidia pop up in my updates, I try logging into Wayland and doing my usual tasks. If it starts working, that'll just let me extend the life of this card. I'll probably still strongly consider switching flavors with my next card.

Is this a concern with electric vehicles? I haven't heard of this being an epidemic that we even need to worry about.

Oh, nice. Yeah, I'm fine with my content being searchable on the great uneddit databases. That's just the nature of the internet -- anything you make public should be assumed to be forever public. It sounds like my deleted content won't be making Spez advertising dollars when people search my old subreddit haunts, which was my goal in deleting my stuff in the first place.

Yeah, one one hand, I don't get how this isn't straight-up human trafficking. On the other hand, I have a feeling Chicago and New York and all those other places are helping these people in a much more compassionate manner than they would have been handled in Texas, so there's at least that. I don't know what a good answer is to the whole situation, but at the moment, asylum seekers are getting better help than if they were thrown in Texas border cages.
