Hmm.
Interesting idea. I mean, if you are a corporate competitor, why not? Especially if you injected the static into the blood stream.

Begun, the AI wars have.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 1 day ago:
Thats a fallacy based on the assumption Biden can be elected. If Biden can’t win, then literally any other vote is a better, more strategic option.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 1 day ago:
by tooth and claw

So whats the path then?

Use this and tell me your path to 270. You have to do it with out WI, MI, and MN.
If you can’t do that, then stfu.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 2 days ago:
Ok so you retained those states.
Where do you get the remaining electoral college votes if WI, MI, and MN go red?
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 2 days ago:
All of those states were blue in 2020. None of those represent a pickup based on abortion.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 2 days ago:
I asked for what specific states are going to flip on abortion rights. Your article does not cover that.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 2 days ago:
Yeah I don’t know what we do.
I want Bernie to run third party. I don’t think Biden can win.
- Comment on As Israel Begins “Final Phase” of Genocide, Biden Slams Pro-Palestine Protests 2 days ago:
I think the quote about the “white liberal” more interested in the negative peace of order is incredibly salient. I’ve been thinking very very deeply about this quote over the last several months.
add to that the fact that the democratic party is successfully using abortion to get votes and rfk jr is a much bigger threat to trump than biden; it’s pretty clear that biden will win not matter what.
I appreciate your optimism but I think this is less certain than you make it out to be. I think you need to take these assumptions to the electoral college map and actually game it out. Specifically, without pivoting on Gaza, I argue that Biden has lost Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota. They demonstrated their willingness to step back from Biden, and Biden has only gotten worse since then. He held onto those states by a shoestring in 2020.
Thats 35 electoral votes. So where does Biden make those up on abortion rights? What states does Biden flip into his favor. Florida? (yea fucking right) Texas? (blue as my balls waiting for this state to turn purple).
Like show me on a map where these electoral college votes that Biden has gained are coming from and we can have that conversation. Otherwise, you don’t actually have an argument because the popular vote is irrelevant, and whining about winning the popular vote while losing the electoral college isn’t an argument either.
My read of the electoral college map is that we’re basically locked into the state it was in for 2016 and 2020. I don’t see anything fundamentally different going into 2024. So the question becomes, what states flip from 2020?

Man I fucking hate to have to do this to all the Biden apologists on lemmy who let it get this far, but we told you so.
Thanks. You’ve handed the election to trump.
- Comment on Apple introduces M4 chip 2 days ago:
I still can’t run basic ml stuff. I can’t play the vast majority of video games. I have to put up with the same sentiment that Microsoft brings to their products, that you are just renting your computer from Apple. The hardware looks bad ass. Too bad its apple.
- Comment on Apple introduces M4 chip 2 days ago:
Everything since the M1. Mind blowing hype, graphs that seem shocking at announcement. Data that comes in below these graphs, then owing to the extremely high walls of the garden, a sigh and shoulder shrug at what you can do with the technology, because although cool and seemingly very powerful, you just can’t do much with it because of apples buisness philosophy.

One BILLION dollars for 32 gigs of ram.

Does any one care?
There was so much hype on this generation of silicon and the landing has seemed extremely flat to me, largely because Apple.

I guess for the Palestinians, being in prison is considered a pre-existing condition.

Exactly.
- Comment on House Passes Bill That Defines Criticism of Israel as “Antisemitism” 1 week ago:
The big one is right here:
“Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.”
This is a slight of hand where they conflate judaism and Israel. The definition starts out as explicitely about Judaism and move towards being explicitly about Israel.
