  • Trump tariffs and green energy rollbacks push household electricity bills up 10%

  • Fast forward to me in 2029 keeping costs down.

  • Youth as young as 12 see OnlyFans as an appealing alternative to traditional work, study finds

    Jump

  • Exactly. "Kids say they consider work avenue that might sound exciting." When people say they can make shit tons of money, and they don't realize how much work it would take, it would always sound appealing.

  • Silicon Valley Is Panicking About Zohran Mamdani. NYC’s Tech Scene Is Not

  • I just saw another candidate doing similar running for a Senate seat in Maine. He's already said he would vote out Schumer

  • California's New Congressional Maps Would Add Five Democratic Seats, Offsetting Texas' Push

    Jump

  • Who's supreme court? The supreme Court of California? The U.S. supreme Court has no authority there unless they rule it illegal to gerrymander in the U.S., which would restrict Texas, Florida, Ohio and whomever else doing so.

  • Trump Vow to 'Get Rid of Mail-In Ballots' for 2026 Blasted as 'Unconstitutional'

    Jump

  • If the Save act goes through I don't see how they couldn't do similar with this. I imagine the argument would be the same, that they are not taking the administration of the voting away from the states, just setting a standardized required method. I don't think he'd be able to do it via executive order legally, but I dont know who would stop it. He could just have the house/Senate pass it like the save act if they so wanted. Your state constitution doesn't matter at that point. We like to say it's a free country but it took us 4 amendments just to get to a point that still basically says our people don't have the right to vote.

    The constitution didn't have a right to vote.

    The bill of rights didn't have a right to vote.

    The 15th amendment (1870) said we can't restrict voting based off Race.

    The 19th amendment (1920) said we can't restrict voting for women.

    The 24th Amendment (1964) said we can't restrict the voting by taxing polls.

    The 26th Amendment (1971) said we can't restrict voters over 18 (previously 21).

    Most people think this means all those people have a right to vote, but it is really the government doesn't have the ability to explicitly restrict those people from voting.

    If U.S. citizens had the right to vote none of those amendments would have been necessary and we would be free to vote and our arguments would hold up in court easier. But the U.S. has long perpetuated the lie that we are free. We are a "democratic Republic" where the government can, has, and will try to restrict our freedom at every turn if it benefits those in power.

    Tldr; If U.S. citizens had a right to vote, we wouldn't have had amendments, the Supreme Court would have ruled a long time ago that any act restricting U.S. citizens from voting was illegal.

  • RFK Jr.‘s Wi-Fi and 5G conspiracies appear to make it into MAHA report draft

  • Well he was going to heat up a meal, but RFK told him the radiation in the microwave was dangerous so he just gave up

  • Neil Young Leaves Facebook & Instagram Over “Unconscionable” Policies for AI Chatbot Conversations With Children

    Jump

  • Meta had put guidelines in place allowing romantic and sensual conversations with children, such as calling an 8 year olds body a work of art apparently. (I don't know much about it, so don't take my word for it)

  • Yarp, animal planet, should be first week of February. (Or at least that's when the puppy bowl is)

  • Systems

    Jump

  • Tools help problems, but not all risks should be on the manufacturer. If they hurt the environment, sure it is their fault, but people end up weighing is it better for the environment overall. The trash wheels in rivers were.

    No one is reasonable to say a kitchen knife manufacturer should be liable for people cutting their fingers off while cooking. Could someone design safer knives, of course.

  • VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power

  • Narrator: it wasn't.

  • Looking to change to a Linux-based OS on a laptop, but I don't really understand coding so I haven't tried any of them. Is LinuxMint a good place to start?

    Jump

  • I found the software manager to be much nicer in Mint than Pop, so if someone is looking for GUI preference, I could understand the lean towards Mint

    Jump

  • It's been great for standard use, but yeah some things just get weird sometimes in every OS. 2 mint cinnamon OS's acted different, over and over with power and lid settings. pop-os had stupid shit with an old laptop that no matter what I did the airplane mode would enable when you opened the screen, not closed. I use RustDesk for remote access across my machines and phone, where you install from matters, if you install from the software manager their website or the flatpack... You will have different results/features. Run your own server for it, now the docker container is continuously restarting. Fix that and my file server, jellyfin server, Pihole server, or something else is doing something wonky. It's 100% my fault I'm trying to run to much off of one device, but once I get it all working I say hmm... What if I try to run a Piefed instance off of it, and realize no matter how I run the reverse proxy the incoming ports may have overlap. So I need to divide things up more.

  • Trump is deporting so many immigrants that it could cause inflation to hit 4% next year, top economist says

    Jump

  • My spouse told me a store was having a "sale" on 2 liters of soda, for $4.29. That has to be higher than I've ever heard. I don't by Coke often but if I was buying a 2 liter $1.99 was expensive a couple years ago. Products like that have to be at 30%+ inflation.

  • Officer: "Why'd he jump" Honestly, I don't know. I told him their might be rocks and to be careful. They should probably put up a sign.

    ... huh, guess I was wrong

  • Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?

    Jump

  • He was the highest paid actor a couple years ago so unfortunately I think we have to count him as an actor. He wasn't getting paid nearly as much in the WWE I don't think. He's nearing billionaire status. If he does barely anything he should probably hit it in the next 2-3 years.

  • I'm the swamp hunter. Where you at?

    Jump

  • Meh, as someone who grew up in swamp puppy land I think this whole map is why people like Trump get away with touting places in America as being dangerous and people believing it enough for congress to not shut it down. I've been up and down the east coast, stayed in every borough except Staten Island at least once. Throw in D.C., Philly, Baltimore, Atlanta, tiny towns that most people have never heard of or couldn't find on a map. I've been to Phoenix, San Diego, Dallas, Charlotte, Chicago, Memphis, Nashville... And I'm sure many I've forgotten. The one thing they all have in common is they have all had mostly nice people.
