Proof of citizenship is already required to vote. That’s what you’re doing when you register to vote. Then, a secondary validation of a sample of ballots is typically completed to ensure that there isn’t fraud.

Obviously, they’re just trying anything and everything to not lose the midterms, and their voters go rabid over just the mention of voter fraud. I’m just rambling to the void because this new wave of fraud allegations is so fucking stupid and see through.

The point isn’t that it’d fix all of the US’s problems. It would certainly fix one, though.

Duh? That’s literally what a tariff is in this case?

Lund isn’t exactly sane.

This. I have a Garmin watch and it works perfectly with Gadgetbridge.

Bummer that it doesn’t have voice chat yet in the self hosted version. Hopefully soon - I would probably switch if they had that.

Yes. I have seen this post in other communities, primarily the shitpost ones. Let me see if I can find it.

This is actually part of the issue I have with them. They never properly link back to the original post, especially with images but also with reposts of text posts.

Edit: found the exact post, it’s the same title and everything: https://sh.itjust.works/post/54438100

It’s gotten so bad that if I notice a post I’ve seen before, I check the user, and it’s one of the dozens of cm0002 alt accounts. They’re just spamming shit everywhere. Nice of them to steal content and then not tell anyone where they found it, it would be one thing if they got it off of the fediverse, but no, the majority of their posts are from original posts elsewhere on the threadiverse. They don’t even rename the titles, they’re too lazy and post too often to do so.

You are fucking kidding me, right? I’m so fucking tired of seeing your reposts. You are spamming everyone’s feed and are impossible to block. Every time I block one of your accounts you just switch to another. You’re insufferable and making the threadiverse a worse place.

This is now the seventh account of yours that I’m blocking.

DeFlock is just a front end for OSM, does that make OSM a “terrorist organization” too?

This slop is why the curl maintainers had to turn off their bounty program.

I live in WA and just drop them off at the county provided ballot boxes, no post office required. There are more of the drop boxes than post offices too.

Yeah, that was kind of my point

AWS is the real money maker for Amazon, making up most of their revenue.

Neither are the layoffs apparently

You know that primaries haven’t happened yet, and that this is reason to not vote for him in them? He’s not the winning candidate everyone needs to get behind yet. There’s no one to divide.

cm0002 is the worst with this…I’ve blocked like five or six of their accounts but another one just pops up in my feed the next day. It’s so annoying and makes the threadiverse seem like it’s full of spam.

Even local models are trained on stolen art and content. That’s the immoral part.

LLMs still hallucinate what content is on the pages they search. It’s not great.

I went to the urgent care (and was unfortunately referred to emergency care in the same building) for some chest pain a few weeks ago. Here’s some of my bill (luckily most should be covered by insurance, we’ll see if they give me trouble)

• Blood draw/lab test: $446.63
• Plasma test: $158.07
• Chest x-ray: $664.66
• “Emergency services” or in other words, the bill for getting transfered from urgent care to emergency: $3,987.00
• ECG: $1,024.94

All of that, just for them to tell me that I was fine and to just rest. $6,295.29 for an hour long visit. If I didn’t have insurance, I wouldn’t be able to afford that and would have just preferred whatever was going to happen to me.

Meanwhile the fucking shitty human beings in Congress get free universal healthcare.

Other than AWS, which is basically impossible to avoid since they own most of the cloud market, the rest in that list are fairly simple to avoid.
