    > As the smoke from our wildfires continue to pollute your air and many of you struggle to breathe please think about this:

    > If you chose to abstain from voting or do not vote Blue, your air quality will continue to worsen because Trump will increase the use of and development of fossil fuels which will increase our wildfires.

    > Thanks for listening. Breathe easy today.

    Donnodubus:

    > The U.S. is drilling more oil under Biden than it ever has, in history.

    Snowshadow:

    > Sorry but I have seen you try this elsewhere.

    > Let's get your facts straight here.

    > The US is "drilling" in order to keep the economy going, your transportation moving until alternate energy can take over.

    > At the SAME TIME he has invested MORE in alternative energy projects than any other president in history. He also has reduced drilling on federal lands.

    > So please take your right wing propaganda elsewhere!

    Donnodubus:

    >It's incredible that you think "keeping the economy and transportation going" somehow makes Biden's oil drilling different from Trump's — everyone drills oil for those reasons!

    > Yes, if you want to make a case for Biden, argue that he is expanding solar power or something — don't mislead people into thinking he is reducing U.S. fossil fuels when he's not!

    > P.S., fact checking pro-Biden campaigning is not right wing propaganda 👍

    Snowshadow:

    > Please show me exactly where in my post I stated Biden was reducing fossil fuels? !! I will tell you...nowhere!!

    pmonks (replying to DD):

    > Do you think a second Trump presidency would reverse that?

    DD: > No one thinks that. The point is that Biden is not reducing oil output like his proponents are trying to make it sound.

    > We can't solve the problem if we ignore it as long as a Dem is in office...

    pmonks: > For better or worse, our choices are Biden or Trump. Anything else is a distraction.

    DD: > Criticizing Biden is not the same thing as promoting Trump, actually.

    > In fact, criticizing him can push him to do better electorally...

    pmonks: >Criticising Biden without also comparing and contrasting to the only viable alternative (Trump) is misleading at best, and imo downright dishonest.

    > Too many people cling to the fantastical notion that a perfect candidate exists. I don’t even believe such a thing is theoretically possible (let alone even remotely possible in practice). And that’s before I even start ranting about how whack our electoral system is, and how it’s only capable of giving us mediocre-at-best candidates…

    DD: > And here I thought honesty was about telling the truth! My source literally does compare and contrast Biden with Trump!

    pmonks: > So then why did you editorialise it in such a one-sided manner?

    snowshadow: > When it comes to Biden, you always promote the negative take...never the complete truth. I have been through your replies and posts.

    (in reply to DD's claim of comparing and contrasting)

    > Wrong. If you do nothing but criticize him (and that is all you do-I checked through your account) you are pushing people into thinking of not voting or voting for Trump...same result. This is not the time to be full out negative, not this close to an election. Don't aprove of Biden's policies? There will be plenty of time to pressure his administration after the election. Push for Trump there will never be another election and you will never see a change for the better.

    DD: > In case you haven't realized, an environment where citizens can't criticize their elected leaders is one where Democracy is already lost 👍 > Furthermore, it doesn't follow that criticizing Biden for drilling more oil than Trump helps Trump win.

    There are many Trump-to-Biden voters who aren't exactly environmentalists or Left leaning...

    Snowshadow: > You are exhausting. I am done with you. You are completely missing the point. Bye.

    pmonks (after a confused reply from DD): > How childish. Choosing not to engage with a recalcitrant troll is not even remotely the sane thing as losing an argument. Grow up.

    What's your most irrational/obnoxious pet peeve?

    Something that makes you annoyed as hell when it really shouldn't, or something that makes you feel like a !nerd for getting annoyed at it.

    what kind of online games are you all playing?

    i got kind of into smite recently, and it was fun, but it felt like i was playing it because i was telling myself "you should learn a multiplayer game! play smite!" and having fun just because i was invested in the current game. i never really WANTED to play it, i just felt like i should. what kind of online/multiplayer games are you into right now?

    very niche question, i apologise, but is there any place you know of that provides linux gog installers via direct download?

    i know, i know, i should have a vpn by now. but i really can't justify it, even the cheaper ones. but gog-games.to only carries windows installers (usually it's not too bad to get them working on proton but there is a few cases where i just can't get them to run at all). do you lovely people at /c/piracy know of any places? thank you for reading!

    it's a sad day, the first time i competely fucked my computer

    i tried to get kde plasma on my fedora, when i booted it up there was just a black screen. i couldn't type any commands either, it was toast

    thankfully i've got windows dual booted because i'm a filthy !gamer-gulag who uses it for vr games. unfortunately windows doesn't let me see my linux drive's files so all of my personal files are unrecoverable.

    thankfully i think the most i had on my computer was my music (yt-dlp is so easy i can get it all back in 30 minutes tops) and a few files from some project i was working on, sucks but not worth spending hours troubleshooting. oh well.

    on the bright side, i'm RETVRN-ing to my old reliable, linux mint with xfce. i'll miss hot corner and the other niceties that gnome has but xfce will be a bit more comfortable for me.

    The main base isn't anything special, at least for now, but it's enough to protect from the main planet's frequent boiling storms.

    Weird ass line in the middle of my screen sometimes (Fedora Linux)

    Finally back on a gnome distro that supports GRUB2, and loving it so far. The exception being that every time something moves, there is a weird line in the middle of my monitor that almost "splits" the screen in half, like it's off by a pixel or something. this isn't really present in static images though. it's pretty infuriating. when trying to record an example to share with you guys, i noticed it for whatever reason just doesn't even happen while recording my screen with GPUScreenRecorder. Does anyone have any ideas on what this could be?btw, this didn't happen on mint when i was using that distro. Thank you!

    can somebody explain why the shitty "website" called reddit is known as stormfront around these parts

    I don't know much internet history, but i've heard tales of a message board called stormfront? was that a subreddit? does it have anything to do with !homelander ?

    What's the most cringy shit you've seen on reddit?

    i'll start. i saw a ask reddit post saying something along the lines of "men of reddit whats something women can't understand" and the comments were just. oh my god. the main one that made me want to puke was "when dudes walk by each other and nod" and the whole fucking thread was just fedoras with arms soypogging like it was some secret language or something. "when you nod upwards, it means respect!!!!!1!!11 when you nod downwards its aggression!!!1!11!!!!!" as if women dont do the same shit.

    do you guys have something similar to share?

    how do you keep your lutris settings, games and save files when you distro hop?

    going from linux mint to fedora because i really miss gnome, and i would like to keep my data and games from lutris. 99% of my games are just gog installers running from wine and preinstalled steamunlocked games, so i doubt it'd be too hard to get it all back but to save some time i'd really rather do this. i can't find shit on google or youtube since SEO and Ai garbage has just flooded everything, and looking for anything via youtube search is just a futile mission. does anyone know how to do this process? thanks in advance, everyone have a great day!

    What the hell is stevia extract? Is it good for you? Why can't I find anything on it?

    My parents texted me about this "zevia" soda shit that's sweetened with stevia extract which is supposedly 0 calories, thus healthy. but knowing other "diet" sodas that doesn't mean its good for you, and i can't find any studies on the effects of it and i'm super confused. apparently indigenous people would use the whole leaf as a sweetener, but the extract may be different? is it a fruit juice situation, where removing the rest of the leaf removes all of the healthy shit? does anybody know?
