I live in a state where the presidential race is locked in, and has been for my entire life. I know which party is going to take all of our electoral votes, every single time, no matter what I do. If I vote for a third party and help them get 20% of the popular vote (however unlikely that is) they’ll be guaranteed a spot in the debates and on the ballots of all 50 states in 4 years. Its the only way for my vote to potentially matter at all.

I spent a week there. We stayed with my girlfriends grandfather, in a gated community in Bayonne. He had to keep a huge garbage can full of water in the shower because the power was constantly going out, also it was unbelievably hot despite being late October, there were ants all.over everything and the gas/electric were obscenely expensive. It’s beautiful. The people were nice. The food was amazing and I’ve never had a better cup of coffee. But live there? Nah.

Someone already said Susannah Dean so I’m gonna go with Roz from Frasier

She got that Detta Walker energy

Cat.

We don’t have a mayor, we have a first selectman. She’s a woman but still calls herself first selectman. I can’t decide of that’s anti-feminist or feminist AF, it is her choice after all

Jump. The direction you fall is down. Up is the other way.

SMART will tell you how many hours it’s been running

Dell drives are rebranded Seagates, however the firmware is slightly modified so the bios recognizes it as a Dell branded drive. Openmanage will throw an error if you use a different drive (though aside from that everything will work fine)

If two parties are at odds with one another, and one on them is willing to use violence and the other isn’t, the violent party wins.

Is that a Martin Luther King quote?

It’s definitely not Winston, he died in the main story. I interpreted it as an unnamed historian writing about this years later. I don’t think Orwell would self-insert and write from an in universe perspective.

That’s great, glad to hear it. Start doing backups too!

Also, the appendix talks about ingsoc policies in the past tense. They lost.

I just referenced that on Lemmy a couple of days ago
