It was only twelve years ago they tried The Kansas Experiment, which failed so miserably they got rid of it a mere 5 years later in 2017. Mysteriously, doing the same thing has the same results.

Somehow they will blame the Dems.

Or I could go to bluesky where that change is already in place.

On the plus side the high mortality rate should lower the spread.

He on that “reddit didn’t kill Digg, Digg killed Digg” mindset.

If only there was some sort of stopping a 2 year long failed invasion based plan that could resolve this.

Gimp is great for when you need photoshop, but aren’t doing it as your job, and don’t want to sail the seven seas.

Also, Fwiw when I want to outline text in gimp i select a text path, make a new layer, select from path, expand the selected area 2px, then fill (oh and move the layer behind the text layer). Unike in photoshop where theres like… one step, iirc.

Infinite Wealth was deffo a bigger map and set thereof then its predecessors (Like a Dragon was also substantially larger, as was Lost Judgment in comparison to its predecessor), but it did absolute numbers, so I dunno about that.

I think it comes down more to if it feels appropriately sized and filled. Prior Yakuzas were bursting at the seems with shit to do everywhere in their smaller maps. Breath of the Wild had new and interesting shit going on everywhere too.

That vote was like… 57% to 43% in favor of abortion, and only failed because it needed to hit 60%. Ironically the amendment that made that requirement possible didn’t pass with 60% of the vote.

Personally I don’t use Notepad for writing writing. Its a functional writing app. A app for copying and pasting code, or making a list, or crude ascii art. If I need to bold something, or do text formatting, thats when I open up the several orders of magnitude larger office apps.

“I can’t just run on not being the other guy? I actually have to articulate a platform and get people to like me???”

Schrödinger’s voter fraud

Crazy how folks who already had one Republican party aren’t interested in voting for another.

We elected a senile con man instead of a qualified woman [In 2016] because America has a deeply rooted misogyny problem.

I mean she also had a 20+ year smear campaign against her, that probably shaved a few votes I gotta imagine.

Trump lost some voters. Kamala lost WAY more voters. Find out why 15 million voters overall didn’t vote. Or more particularly, find out why all those voters came out in 2020 and not in 2016 or 2024.

He’d do some executive orders that every red state would spend their entire budget fighting in court, and be Carter 2.0 for anything having to do with Congress. I’d still vote for him.

I use a app called KnownCalls that simply sends any call from outside my address book to voicemail. Works wonders.
