I actually have an ac180 for camping and using tools away from power. I kinda figured it was a bit of a waste as just a ups, and worried about killing the battery quickly.

Maybe get another dedicated one for the office where I need it…

You have got to be goddamned kidding me. Literally this weekend I said to myself “time to get a UPS”.

Because most of its citizens peaked in it.

They made mention of how the next protest would require action at No Kings this weekend. I was sincerely hoping this might be the case. It felt like enough people are urging up for these that action just might be possible.

I don’t know, but it was inspiring to see so many people, and the conversations going on are much more targeted and direct. I don’t have much faith left, but here’s hoping; I’ll do my part…

Exactly, they are an important tool in normalizing a resistant mindset. They get headlines, and it shows others who might be on the fence that the movement is growing. It gives people hope, unifies them.

So even without a cause, we all know what we’re protesting. Normalize the resistance, make it ordinary, make it default.’ We’ve been listening to their bullshit long enough, I just want to some time to shout myself,.

Then I come home motivated and get to work.

Been on it for years, but reminds me that it desperately needs a hardware upgrade. Seems like now is the right time.

Anyone have any good suggestions? I’m still running an old pcengines apu2.

People have become so willfully, purposely, proudly ignorant.

It’s because the real motivation isn’t the kids, it’s punishing women. Babies are just the marketing.

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the plain and stark language. I’m so tired of the same washing, I’m so tired of skirting the issue. We need to accept and then figure out how to deal with the facts.

It’s not his supporters I’m worried about, it’s the apathy and impatience of the average american voter that does.

Yep, they will prop his rotting corpse up as long as they can, the plan is to having him be the wrecking ball, take all the blame, but by then the fixes are all in for the next one in line.

Not sure if they will foist vance on us, I don’t think they believe he can be the front of a cult but by they maybe the power will be consolidated enough that they don’t care since he’s just a puppet.

Lets him run? Fuck that, they paved the way and ensured it would happen. They are fully complicit in everything that is happening. This has been plain as day for years now.

The coup is over, now the only thing that can save us is their incompetence.

Jebus, fantastic.

Oh no, what rumblings would that be? Prusa has always been a ray of hope…

was having that exact conversation with a buddy yesterday, he figures we’ll see the first attempt this year.

I personally don’t think you can have a romantic relationship with a thing you created. romance is about discovering, learning and growing with someone else. When that else is a manifestation of yourself, it’s ultimately masturbation.

I love it when a brief comment just strips all the arguments to their core. This is exactly it. I’d say he was looking for a companion, but folks don’t create companions to be equals, they create them to control them.

This is just a really fancy, incredibly power hungry sextoy, isn’t it?

I agree, it’s multi faceted, and yeah, the dems suck too. I just feel people have agency in this, and sometime, when faced with a difficult decision, adults need to make the best choice. I’m a parent and have to make all kinds of shitty decisions, often involving actual shit. But I’m an adult, and I know that a shitty decision that ultimately supports a good outcome, is still the right one.

I’m 100% in agreement that the dems failed, but so did the electorate.

Everyone wants to vote for a principled leader, but there are those of us who aren’t willing to give up the tiny bit of power we have just to try and prove a point.

This is a 2 party system, regardless of lip service. Kamala wasn’t my first choice for president but she was the only one. It was her or the other fucker full stop. So, I did everything I could to elect the one who we had some hope of controlling. The dems showed they ultimately listen to their voters with enough pressure when they ditched Biden, the other guy we all knew why was going to happen.

So, to all those protest voters, I’m super happy for you and your maga companions, feeling so proud of yourselves while the country burns.

So, back to where they came from then.

It’s like a weekly headline in the good ol usa. Type “toddler shoots” in any search engine and get dozens of similar headlines.

I didn’t mention parties, shit for brains.
