Fuck Trump, fuck Biden, and fuck Putin. They all fucking suck.

Anyone feeling this way was traumatized by the crap the Democrats and Fauci did in 2020 and 2021. “Rules for thee, but not for me.”

This is why half the country votes Republican, and I can see where they are coming from. Anyone who experiences this “pandemic skip” and still thinks their politicians handled it correctly has Stockholm syndrome.

Democrats are complacent because Trump exists and people will vote blue no matter who. I’m so tired of their fake outrage.

Yeah, I know maybe like two other people who use Firefox. Everybody else uses Chrome. And it’s been that way for the last decade or so.

I still prefer Firefox, but I worry about its future because most people, including web developers, just don’t care.

Development of IE stagnated after Microsoft put Netscape out of business, because Microsoft got complacent, until Mozilla resurrected the remains of Netscape and saved the web. Then Chrome came along and Google convinced almost everybody to switch to it, including competing browsers like Opera. Chrome was originally based on Safari’s WebKit (a fork of Konqueror’s rendering engine KHTML), but then Google forked it (Blink) so they’d maintain control of it.

From what I’ve heard, most web devs only test on Chrome since every browser other than Firefox and Safari is based on it. And nobody seemed to care until very recently, because they didn’t think a browser based on an open source project could possibly be a problem.

I’m honestly not surprised any of this happened, and I stick to Firefox and Safari myself, but I do worry about the ramifications of getting a real Chrome on the iPhone and iPad. I never liked Chrome and don’t want to be forced to use it.

This is the last thing holding Google back from total domination of the web browser space. You know most people will just download Chrome when something doesn’t work, since they already use it on their PC/Mac.

While I don’t think that holding users hostage is the best thing to do, the reality is that enough people just don’t care, and the iPhone and iPad’s popularity forces web devs to make their sites work on Safari and not just Chrome. Once a real Chrome is available on iOS, all bets are off.

All they have to do is say the magic word: “Cosmetic”

True, but Biden’s on stage telling everybody how racist MAGA Republicans are while uttering racist crap himself and dodging questions about the racist policies he’s pushed.

We need better options, and I’m tired of people telling me I am not allowed to criticize Biden because Trump exists. Neither one of them is good for this country. We could argue about the lesser of two evils, but the lesser of two evils is still evil.

Great. I’m not using a Dell. I have a laptop from a company that supposedly supports Linux first. A company I will not be buying anything from in the future either.

The awful screen is one big reason I don’t use my System76 laptop more often. It’s the worst laptop screen I’ve ever seen, has terrible light bleed, and has a pink tint. And this is the warranty replacement they tried to charge me for. The first one had the same awful screen, but kept freezing on me randomly.

And the damn thing STILL has hardware features that only work on Windows 10, five years later (like multi-finger trackpad gestures). I’ll take System76 seriously when they start putting good screens in their laptops and get rid of nvidia.

“Age is front of mind for American voters in a way that it has not traditionally been and they are nervous about it,” said Cal Jillson, a political science professor at Southern Methodist University.

Um, yeah, because never was normal to have so many 75+ year olds in power. They need to retire. And yes, that includes Donald Trump and Joe Biden. The Silent Generation and Boomers ran this country into the ground and never gave up that power.

Biden mixes up people’s and countries’ names all the time too. They both need to fucking retire.

From my perspective, the Fediverse is full of people who think Biden is the greatest president ever, that we should stay locked down in our houses for the rest of our lives, that everything should be free or provided by the government, and that if you disagree with anyone on anything, you’re automatically a Trump supporter and a Nazi. (I don’t like Trump or his cult, btw.)

I do have a PC with Linux, but I can see where you’re coming from. Unfortunately, Linux isn’t for everybody.

And people wonder why I have such an issue with so many 80 year olds being in power. This is why.

You’re dismissing all of my opinions about Biden as “Trump propaganda.”

You act like the only possible reason for someone not to like Biden is Trump. I never liked Biden. Or Trump. Get the fuck over it.

You already know the majority of Lemmy users would agree with me that Trump is a racist. Because he fucking is. I thought I didn’t need to state the obvious, but there you go.

I don’t think accusing ANY reporter of being a crack addict is an appropriate thing for a politician to do under ANY circumstances. Feel free to disagree with me on that, but whatever. It’s my opinion.

Your argument seems to boil down to “If you say anything bad about Biden, you’re a Trump supporter falling for his propaganda!” My argument is that this binary view of politics is the real problem with this country.

I don’t like Trump OR Biden. Why is this so fucking hard for you people to understand?

I want to see voting reform. Keep in mind that Trump won his first term due to a fatal flaw in our election system. And by the way, I voted for Hillary Clinton. But as it stands now, it seems like you people would be happy with Strom fucking Thurmond in office (one of Biden’s buddies) if he was alive and a Democrat today.

A quick YouTube search reveals he did in fact say those things.

I’m not saying Trump is not racist. I’m sure you remember when Trump was confronted multiple times and asked to outwardly denounce racism, and he hesitated or avoided doing so. Which is also concerning. Only a racist would dodge that question.

And everybody forgot that Biden said that the vaccines will keep you from getting covid too: https://youtu.be/VArXfQU--LA
