Reddit admins: "Surely nobody will actually like Lemmy. It's like if you took reddit back in time 10 years. Smaller, more niche, less brand activity, pretty much just die-hard nerds. Who could possibly prefer something like that?"

There are two things you do when voting in a two-party system:

1. Vote to keep out the candidates that would do real damage
2. Vote to communicate your preferences for candidates with platforms that match your priorities

I know it seems like a third party is the only solution to your current situation, but it's not. The solution is to keep the idiots out by voting Democrat in general elections, and then to vote in primaries or with your campaign contribution dollars for Democrats who match your views on Israel/Palestine.

You might also support candidates who are in favor of voting reform, including things like ranked choice voting, which also happen to be people who currently run as Democrats.

I have no idea whether this is the right decision or the wrong decision, but kudos to you for stepping up and making a decision.

Every time I grab my son's or my grandma's iPhone to help them with something I run into this lack of universal "back" functionality and it drives me absolutely crazy.

So incredibly true

Believe it or not, they thought of that when they created start/stop systems.

In cars with these systems, the back pressure in the engine's cylinders is greatly reduced via a variety of strategies including selective alteration of valve timing and purpose-built secondary valves. What this means in effect is that the torque required to re-start the engine is a fraction of a dead cold start, and even a fraction of a normal warm start. This should serve to minimize additional destructive wear on components.

In effect, well-designed start-stop systems do not create any additional wear on vital engine components versus the engine running for that same period of time.

Thanks for the tip on Omnivore. I'm now down the rabbit hole and thinking to using it and using the Obsidian or logseq plugin to get everything into one place.

I second this. Probably the best $15 I spend for my family every month. No ads for kids watching YT on their own is nice peace of mind for me and my wife.

And because I already pay for it, we've slowly all migrated over from Spotify to YT Music and been surprisingly happy with it.

I recommend silverbullet.md as someone else posted above.

I don't believe anyone who uses tailwind is shipping the whole thing with all of those megabytes of classes in production. It's actually sort of hard to even do that on accident if you're following a tutorial or their official docs.

This is all just so... sad.

Third rec here for US Mobile. I actually switched from Mint after a couple of years with them (and Google Fi before that). Three of my family members are on the Verizon network through US Mobile, and one is on the T-Mobile network. Nice to have the split when we're traveling because one of the two networks always has coverage.

Really? That's huge.

This is a great solution.

Another vote for fastmail. Very nice interface, full-featured, etc.
