Some of them I’d rather not know 🙄

“Democrats have moved so far to the left. We had an $18 billion surplus that has disappeared, they’ve raised taxes, they’ve overspent,” Van Binsbergen said. “In business, we budget. We plan. The government needs to have a little bit more of that as well.”

I would vote for him if he ran for president. He’s not perfect, but he does actually try to push forward on fixing things. Hopefully we’ll have elections in 2028 🤞

This is just sad and a dick move

Other than the happy ending on some cuts providing a different tone for the ending, I don’t think there’s any difference in the story/aesthetics

Yeah, Blade Runner is also amazing at capturing the aesthetic. I watched the final cut version of it, which is the only one that Ridley Scott got complete creative control over. Haven’t watched the other cuts but did check out the monologue voiceovers on youtube that are on some of the other cuts, and I didn’t care for them. The happy ending on some of them also seemed silly. There’s a whole Wikipedia article about the various versions lol.

Haven’t yet watched Blade Runner 2049 yet, but I’ve heard it’s worth watching. Not quite as good as the original, but not much worse.

Unsurprisingly for the Star Tribune, seems like a reactionary response

It’s got a lot of neat features, but I was surprised by the steering most of all. Wish I could get crab mode on my car for parallel parking

One of the links in the article was interesting, I didn’t know that Nancy Pelosi visited Tianenman Square in 1991:

If you’re in her district, you should let her know what you think of the bill

Yeah, I can kind of see the argument of “the state messed this place up and now needs to fix it”, but that doesn’t seem sufficient in this case.

Yeah, personally I’d like to see fewer, more substantive posts. There’s not really a lot of comments per article

Send interesting Lemmy links to people you know. That’s how they get interested, and check it out. You won’t convince many people by extolling the benefits of the Fediverse, you just have to show them that they’ll be entertained, and maybe they’ll be somewhat more likely to switch if they know it won’t enshittify. I’d say you should send links from instances that don’t federate with some of the weirder places like Hexbear though, that’s likely to turn people off until they realize how the Fediverse works.

One thing that we could use more of that draws people in is posts about relationship issues. Entertaining for almost everyone, and pretty much anyone can create them from their own experience.

Great accelerationist pick, appreciated by both nazis and tankies

I switched from Tuta to Fastmail. Tuta was mostly fine, but being restricted to only their client was really annoying. I can use Fastmail with Thunderbird/FairEmail/etc just fine.

I get what Tuta is trying to do with encrypted email, but IMO they’re better off joining up with Fastmail on better specs that allow for the things they want to do, instead of limiting what email clients you can use.

Hopefully they’ll make digital copies at some point, though I doubt I’ll remember to check back. We need a RemindMe bot/feature on Lemmy

The best description I’ve seen of hotel art is what happens when you go to the store and say “One Art, please”
