No, I assure you, I am a loser... But I never supported Trump in anything, and certainly not as a politician.

I would support however his effort to furtilize a random field in Montana with his corpse. But nothing else really.

Well, it's kinda impossible to know for sure, as anyone not targeted by the Hitler regime as enemies was still discouraged from publicly, or even privately, disagreeing with the party.

But there was likely some poll or support data available to scholars at different points that would give an idea of actual support at those points.

I don't have those details, and am not who you were asking, but I did hear support dwindled as the US entered the war. And, logically, it was probably higher when he was elected then when the war started getting real nasty.

Most people start not liking their leadership when their leaders actions cause them personal distress.

What's on the live lockscreen?

Is that always on display, or is it ad pushing lockscreen bloatware?

The name alone doesn't suggest it's a deal breaker. I do prefer complete use control, and don't even need a new phone any time soon, but still.

I like Motorola as a brand, on account of having old flip and candybar phones that were awesome! Hate to hear they may be up to no good in the smartphone business.

I initially put down a deposit on a Cybertruck at announcement, figured I might use it for camping.

Decided against it because it didn't meet my quality and feature requirements at release.

Had one drive across in front of me in a hardware store parking lot with a big Trump sticker in the window, suggesting he was riding along.

So glad I never had one. Just no.

It's a very different experience than seeing just any old car with a political bumper sticker on it. It's not like it's a big deal if somebody else with a Carola or Blazer happens to have differing political views.

The pro-Tesla group were primarily very environmentally savvy and mostly liberal for the longest time. Then it suddenly shifted into some really nasty cult BS.

On the flip side, there are still a lot of model 3s and Ss and Ys in the area, and I don't think I've ever even seen a sticker on one of those cars, and I've never known their owners to be crazy Elon cult jerks (I'm sure some are, just my experience here).

I wouldn't buy one now, but they used to just seem like cool and more sustainable cars.

It's a real share Elon had to ruin that.

My hope is that he is removed from the equation and the company can shake off the cult and get back to doing well as a smaller clean car manufacturer.

Southern US, windows are only open in winter, basically whenever it's comfortable outside. Never in the summer. The A/C runs basically 24hrs a day during the hottest 2 months of the year.

Windows on the car are basically left cracked for the opposite time. Rain deflector are installed to allow for this without rain getting in.

Let the community vote. Get them onboarded and functioning now. If they don't work out, try another.

It's not a theater movie for me, so I'm waiting for it on digital. Same with Good Luck... And Hail Mary.

Rarely do theaters anymore, less it's a group outting.

I have a huge TV, 5.1 surround, and cheap food and beverages, and all you can eat popcorn for $30, and a pause button for various situations.

I prefer that, by a mile.

I don't do ads, but I follow movie release threads. And I check in regularly to see what's new or upcoming.

If I was big into modern books or new music I'd do that to.

Avoiding ads doesn't mean not paying attention to things I care about.

In my area, and my friend group, it was very popular right away. Everyone I knew then saw it. But maybe not in theaters. It's not a theater movie in my opinion. But I may have been working at a theater when it came out, I'd have to check dates.

I think I read this somewhere before.

However, it might just be that I'm remembering my own personal experience with reality.

Hard to tell for sure.
