  • Why are these fucks so obsessed with what goes on other people's bedrooms?

  • Uncommitted won’t endorse Harris but urges voters to “block Donald Trump”
  • We must block Donald Trump, which is why we urge Uncommitted voters to vote against him and avoid third-party candidates that could inadvertently boost his chances

    Isn't this just saying vote for Harris?

    JD Vance Calls for ‘Less Rhetoric’ After Spreading Bizarre Pet-Eating Immigrant Conspiracy
  • Also, what's the alternative being promoted? If responding to, debunking, and rebuking the lies of Trump/Vance is "pointing fingers" and adding to negative discourse, then are they suggesting to just shut up about it and let the lies go unchecked? How does that serve anyone's interest?

    Feels like normative bias and the naive belief that Trump can't cause any real damage and everything will be fine in the end.

    Cursing is when you use edgy filler words instead of saying something meaningful.
  • Curse words themselves don't reduce the impact of a sentence on their own. Context is important.

    I'll try ask this in a different way: can you think of a time when a curse word seemed to fit the context of the point being made, or enhanced the impact, or felt powerful or eloquent? Can you remember and share the context of it?

  • You're talking about a different issue. It just happens to feature a lot of cursing. But cursing itself does not make a remark less clever.

  • I agree that cursing is often used as a replacement for "um". But you ever really appreciate someone who knows how and when to curse, with intention and as an infliction? It's a joy to behold.

    Remarkable, now $10,000.00!
  • The price hurt. But the flipside is I use this every day for multiple hours so in the long run its worth it.

    Others do show interest but are immediately turned off by the price. Unfortunately it keeps it niche.

  • I use a Supernote Nomad which is (IMO) their more capable competitor. I'm a messy thinker and a messy writer so the ability to scribble things down then move and resize paragraphs and easily tidy things up is great. I can have multiple notebooks and Supernote allows you to set headings, use tags, and create links between notes/notebooks to easily navigate, find, and reference things. It also lets me select text and add it to a built in reminder app so I have a systemwide list of things I need tondo with due dates etc. The reminder links to the note you created it from so you can easily refresh yourself on content.

    The Nomad is also small, like a travel notebook, so it's always with me at work. It has a lovely vegan leather book-style case, the stylus is a chunky metal pen with a ceramic tip, and the Nomad has a texture on it that depresses like paper as you write. So it's also just a really nice and straightforward writing experience when you need it to be, with digital conveniences a few taps away.

  • Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris
  • That's some cringy shit.

  • Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris
  • Why on Earth would you say that, unless you think your opinion is important and valid and worthy of being heard? Yet you out here arguing other people's opinions aren't. Wow, great mind. Cry about strawmen a bit more.

  • Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris
  • She's not allowed to or qualified to have an opinion according to you?

  • She doesn't decide who they vote for.

  • Harris delivered a ‘masterclass’ debate. Will it change the race?

  • Tuesday 9/10 Presidential Debate Megathread!
  • Disengaged voters aren't watching the debate

    They won't watch, but the debate can attract the attention of people who don't ordinarily think about politics but start to realize there's an election coming up. It's a broad group that I don't think you can generalize as broadly as you are (unless you're using the term "disengaged" to describe only the "refuse to participate in any way" camp).

    Similarly, undecided is more likely to describe people who haven't decided if they will vote or not - either side winning and otherwise forfeited vote is a good thing for their campaign. But I also think it's incorrect to assume there's people not still on the fence about the candidate - plenty of "I like Harris but I am not sure if she's good for the economy" voters, etc.

  • Tuesday 9/10 Presidential Debate Megathread!
  • Agree, however if debates do have any impact on an election (Biden dropping out being an exception) it's to sway disengaged and swing voters. So Trump just plays to his base I think that would qualify as a loss for him.

  • iPhone 16 Storage
  • The 60hz screen is ridiculous. They need to make the phone WAY cheaper and acknowledge it's mid-tier. But Apple want it both ways - a premium brand charging premium prices and then shovelling bottom-end specs to funnel you to the even-more-expensive models.

    I hate the stupidly low base storage, but personally am not impacted due to my usage patterns and having cheap cloud storage so I'm not as passionate with my disdain!
