DC Democrats argue ranked choice voting is confusing to voters in predominantly Black areas as they seek to block potential vote on implementing the system
  • This is about protecting establishment career politicians, not about what voters want and not about what they are capable of understanding.

    Estblishment corporate dems 🤝 All elected republicans:

    Disenfranchising the American people in the name of job security.

  • Twitter is now X as the little blue bird disappears
  • I’m sure it’s purely a coincidence that Twitter and Reddit are both being dismantled a year before the 2024 US election. And that Twitter’s demise was funded by Saudi Arabia.

    Musk does seem to relish his chance to play the troll on a global stage, but that’s more of a side perk than the central reason for all of this.

  • How to stop NSFW subs from appearing on the feed?
  • I haven’t seen any (on iOS/Memmy), but I had NSFW turned off on my main instance profile (lemmy.world), not sure if the toggle works within the app. Try turning it off from your main instance in your browser.

  • [SERIOUS] How do you do figure out what job you want after high school?
  • Try to find out as much as you can about what the job/career is actually like, ask people who are in that field, if you can try to get some experience as an intern.

    The worst thing you can do is focus on a major without considering what the actual work will be like once you graduate. Even if you love studying a topic, the actual work may be much less fun in practice.

    Try to get some part-time experience of your own as you can, even at sub-entry level/intern levels it should help you know better what kinds of jobs you would enjoy full time. It’s often hard to envision a job without having some exposure to the field.

  • Annoying
  • Yeah, unfortunately while it’s very simple to set up compressor levels in a DAW or even in feature-rich players like VLC, I haven’t come across any easy way to blanket apply one to your computer’s output without weirdly looping it through something like Ableton.

    It seems like it should be so simple to have in Windows sound settings, but it’s never been an option. Sometimes there’s a toggle for “normalization”, but that gives you no control at all. You at least should be able to set compression ratio, lower threshold (in dB), and upper threshold (in dB).

  • heartbreaking moment
  • I think part of that is how popular merchandising like funko pops have become in recent years, Futurama was many years ago at this point.

    Second reason is that despite its longevity in the internet consciousness, it’s easy to forget Futurama was fairly unpopular when it was originally airing.

  • The main difference I've noted so far between lemming and Reddit is that in lemming people seem to know when to write it's or its.
  • Fewer mobile users maybe? For whatever reason, autocorrect/autocomplete suggestions on iOS always tries to add inappropriate apostrophes to plural words. Without fail, every single time. I sometimes reflexively tap the autocomplete suggestion to finish longer words and it’s really aggravating.
