I finally managed to cut back and this latest catastrophe has me eyeing the bottle again.

Nice pic! I’ve always played 10000 with 6 dice.

Biden would have been better off skipping all the events and say he can’t validate Trump’s candidacy with a debate. He’s a felon and being tried for crimes unbecoming a president. But now it’s all blown up in his face.

I really don’t think the debate changed any minds, but it did energize one side and depress the other. I doubt that energy can be sustained, attention span is very fleeting.

RIP bee.

Yellowjackets - I hate mosquitoes but they just trying to live. Yellowjackets are assholes.

“…crisis he can look better at dealing with.” I swear I didn’t have a stroke just now.

Pretty sure Netanyahu wants Trump re-elected so he’s going to make Biden’s life as difficult as possible. I think Biden loses favor no matter what he does when it comes to Gaza, unless there’s another crisis he can better at good dealing with.

I’m studying for my Network+ (should have had it a long time ago), and watching a #youtube live stream with a study group. Very laggy and buffering events, even when turning my resolution down to 360p.

I suspected I was being throttled because I was using #Firefox and uBlock.

I opened up #Chrome (no #adblock is added), and watched the same stream. No glitches at all.

Not surprised but quite annoying of course.

I’m going to try a useragent addon and see if it helps.

I find that one of the drawbacks to this federated landscape is knowing when to make a new account and where. There. Are. So. Many. Options.

If Lemmy and AP are so limiting why not be part of its development and growth? Development doesn’t seem to happen fast on these platforms, and for good reason. “Move fast and break stuff” is a terrible mantra in my opinion, and I’m glad for things moving more slowly.

In either case I have enjoyed the discussions over there and it would be a shame to see it defederate. Best of luck to you and the team either way.
