Some people…lol.

I’ve got a “tough” phone that’s made for construction workers and such, but I still baby it because I want it to look nice.

If you live in the south east and you are repeating conspiracy theories about the hurricane. May you rot in hell.

It doesn’t matter how many candidates third parties pull from.

If no candidate gets 270 votes, the election is decided by the House. That’s at the electoral college level, but see jordan lund’s breakdown above and how a majority “not Trump” votes will be split among candidates but Trump still wins the state because the “not Trump” voters couldn’t get their shit together and coalesce around a single candidate.

And if the election goes to the House, Assuming Republicans maintain control, take one guess who they’re going to elect?

In a world without the electoral college (or in one with a House that actually represents the majority of the country), sure. Vote your conscience. In reality, we live in a two party system where the third will always be a spoiler.

For me, Johnny Walker is like that donkey that gets Homer Simpson into trouble. Don’t get me wrong; we have a great time together, but there are consequences.

It doubles as a fidget device, so I figured the shorter version would be more appropriate 😆

Agreed, Yeah, there should be a dedicated syntax for media embeds. Lemmy-UI uses markdown-it and the extension markdown-it-html5-embed which is what extends the image syntax for audio/video. I duplicated that in Tesseract for feature parity, and Photon did as well. In both cases, we had to custom write renderers to match the Lemmy-UI syntax which is, for better or worse, the “standard” for Lemmy.

Fleet Admiral in charge of Television and Microwave Oven Programming, naturally.

I’m using a flip phone, but sadly I cannot set a sound for when you flip it open. Because I really want the old school communicator chirps when I flip it open.

Yep shows as embeds for me. I use Tesseract, but I tried in Lemmy UI, and it embedded there too. The first one is my general notification sound.

So did I, lol. If you use the image syntax for audio/video files, they should embed in most Lemmy clients. I was trying to be all fancy.

Lol, yeah. The article I linked is from earlier this year and about Biden/Trump/Kennedy, but the gist of it still applies.

I think Lemmy UI will treat these as embeds. If not, i’ll note just in case.

And remember: a “protest” third party vote is a vote for Trump.

If neither Harris nor Trump gets 270 electoral votes…

[If] No one gets to 270 and the House of Representatives, voting on behalf of the 50 states, is entrusted to pick the next president. What could possibly go wrong with that constitutionally mandated solution?

– What if no candidate wins 270 electoral votes?

🤘🏻

SWF shouldn’t engage with Meta at all

Those cardboard cutouts have more depth than the subjects they’re depicting.

What’s that from?
