Biden would have been better off skipping all the events and say he can't validate Trump's candidacy with a debate. He's a felon and being tried for crimes unbecoming a president. But now it's all blown up in his face.
I really don't think the debate changed any minds, but it did energize one side and depress the other. I doubt that energy can be sustained, attention span is very fleeting.

An even better reason than claiming drought:
'The additional revenue will be used to “cover the costs of importing and treating water, as well as finance climate change adaptations to infrastructure and make up for declines in revenue due to widespread conservation efforts,” according to the Times.'
Yes.. All that conservation we did (if you did of course), earned us more expensive water.

Pretty sure Netanyahu wants Trump re-elected so he’s going to make Biden’s life as difficult as possible. I think Biden loses favor no matter what he does when it comes to Gaza, unless there’s another crisis he can better at good dealing with.

I'm studying for my Network+ (should have had it a long time ago), and watching a #youtube live stream with a study group. Very laggy and buffering events, even when turning my resolution down to 360p.
I suspected I was being throttled because I was using #Firefox and uBlock.
I opened up #Chrome (no #adblock is added), and watched the same stream. No glitches at all.
Not surprised but quite annoying of course.
I'm going to try a useragent addon and see if it helps.

I find that one of the drawbacks to this federated landscape is knowing when to make a new account and where. There. Are. So. Many. Options.
If Lemmy and AP are so limiting why not be part of its development and growth? Development doesn’t seem to happen fast on these platforms, and for good reason. “Move fast and break stuff” is a terrible mantra in my opinion, and I’m glad for things moving more slowly.
In either case I have enjoyed the discussions over there and it would be a shame to see it defederate. Best of luck to you and the team either way.

It's better to regret something you have done than something you haven't.
We're not here to see through each other... We're here to see each other through, man.
Happy InDudependence day dudes. While Americans observe this day to celebrate their victory over their British overlords, Dudeists use this holiday to affirm their psychological independence from any powers-that-be. Slavishly following any cause, flag or ideology (including that of Dudeism) is dangerous and hampers personal growth. Our indudependence brings us together.

Man, there are rules and I reported that ad so many times, but it just kept coming. Do. Not. Miss. That. Shite.
“He who doesn’t remember much from college, Learns to live on his allowance. He who digs Dudeism deeply, Does not become a fucking fascist. Dudeists follow 2500 years of beautiful tradition, Pooling resources, flowing far, freeing spirits. Cultivate love in the true sense of the word, And you won’t need to scam anyone here. Care about the rug in your residence, And it will tie everything together. Create camaraderie among the bowling team, And you’ll enter the next round robin. Fit right in to your time and place, And you’ll be in a unique position. Therefore: Know a residence by its renter, Know a bowler by its team, Know a team by its league, Know a league by its lanes, Know the lanes by its location, Know a location by loving it, in the true sense of the word. How can I enter a world of no-pain? By loving the world, Even when it’s full of goddamn morons.” Excerpt From The Dude De Ching - Free Edition Oliver Benjamin
Perhaps he was not a Dudeist in total, but this passage calls to me as a way to describe abiding. Knowing you're gonna run into some reactionaries when you head out into the world and steel yourself to abide; pretty good advice I think.

Sometimes there's a community, well, a community for its time and place. I have to tell ya, we fit right in here. [Dudeism](/c/dudeism@lemmy.world) If you don't know about Dudeism, and I know a good many don't. It is a good community to learn a bit about Dudeism, reflect on a fine piece of cinema called The Big Lebowski, or just try and abide with all us sinners. I won't keep ya, there's plenty going on so I hope you'll think about visiting. Take it easy Dude.

I've just arrived here from Malibu (if you know what I mean), and I gotta say there's a lot of real reactionaries over there. I went to the Lemmy Community Browser and found there was nothing related to Dudeism so you know how nature abhors a void; action had to be taken. So here I am, joined up here on Lemmy.world and the void is no more. Hope ya all enjoy this little oasis, this home-away-from home if you will. We can sit here and discuss the nature of Donny, is the Dude more calm than Walter, and if so... Well there I go rambling again. Enjoy your stay.
