He doesn't need to actually stop them, just make them appear illegitimate. Also, in places where Republicans are in power already, they will absolutely do this and suddenly we're looking at a midterm where the best outcome for Democrats is losing no power instead of gaining any.

Uhh, is this not a direct reference to that song? I immediately took it that way...
The treatment of Bernie in the 2016 primary also made me lose faith in our form of flawed Democracy. Living in a red state, primaries are my only chance to have any effect on the national Democratic Party and 2016 made it obvious they would accept no challenge to the status quo. Superdelegates are plainly undemocratic, but the post Citizens United world makes both parties absolutely beholden to the corporations.
We literally can not have a candidate that is against business and therefore can not have a candidate that is against fascism.
That said, I will probably continue to pull the lever on my purely symbolic, utterly pointless, placebo vote for the lesser of two evils because people don't understand that the only non-voters that matter are the ones in battleground states.
I don't get why anyone thinks this will be consequential anymore. We already know what's in them, Trump's base does not care. The Supreme Court basically made Trump untouchable by the law...
I mean, I'd take some legal deus ex machina to get us out of this shit any day, but at what point are the Epstein files the distraction from the fact that Americans are being wantonly murdered by the state?
DFHack has some good commands for managing the clothing, but I think the base game should just have jobs queue up in the clothier shop automatically, potentially based on a fortress wide outfit. And yeah, worn items should basically disappear when replaced unless they can be shredded / melted into something usable.
"Don't be a minority" is a rule so deeply ingrained in their ethos they think it's universally understood already.
Haha, was gonna say that seems pretty optimistic.
I still haven't done it, although that's probably because I refuse to use the Byzantines and keep spawning myself as a weird pagan Roman in the middle of Catholic Italy...
Star Trek is just a setting at this point. Lower Decks proved you can do funny and respectful of the fans at the same time. I agree some of SNW's campiness is a bit over the top, but I'd rather a show spend time trying to do something different like a musical than be totally reliant on drama/action like Discovery (a show that was actually good on the rare occasion the cast could take a break from universe ending peril).
This made me laugh. This is the same shit we've been doing for 100 years. "Illegal orders" aren't a thing when you use your imperial military to do imperialism. The last time we had a President that wasn't a war criminal was never.
Yeah, I get the sentiment, but there is such a cult of personality around him and it's not like he's mentally competent enough to be more than a puppet anyway. Maybe losing the figurehead would splinter the fascists...
I have this setup with Plasma, and it is probably easier to do this at the Linux level. I added this to my kernel command line: drm.edid_firmware=DP-1:edid/lg-ultra.bin video=DP-1:3840x2160@60e
Where that EDID file I dumped from a spare monitor using a method I got here.
Anyway, it can be tricky to pick the right device, but I can confirm Sunshine sees it and works properly, and it can be managed like a normal monitor.
Just used this as an excuse to setup a monthly donation. I love this little instance...
It did say I would get Jamaharon included though? I assume my Horgon is in the mail?
