She would not be the first to be corrupted by his influence.. It also doesn’t help that his proteges have all been running SF local government for years. It seems insane to me to dismiss their relationship as not a concern. It’s not a dealbreaker for me, but it seems absurd to think she is “squeaky clean” in light of it. I can be pro-Harris and express some critiques.

Nice deflection

Lol, they literally dated right before her political career started. I see you didn’t do the minimum effort to even look into what I was talking about.

I never intended it to be proof, so I don’t see your point.

Nope. However she has ties to Willie Brown, who is a notoriously corrupt politician in the San Francisco area. It’s a “where there is smoke…” situation. My point is not to assert that she has dirt but to point out that declaring there is no dirt might be a bit dubious.

there is simply no dirt on her

Listen, I’m backing the Harris campaign 100%, but if you look at the history of San Francisco area politicians, you will see that very few are “clean.” I would not be surprised if it was the same for her.

I’d be curious to get some good numbers on this. From a cursory search I got the impression that a very small proportion of homes are AirBnB rentals, but I’m definitely open to looking at conflicting data. Corporate ownership of homes is definitely a problem, and I certainly hope that part of this plan is to prevent these homes from being sold to investors rather than residents. No one is saying we can’t build more homes and address the underlying cause of the shortage at the same time. I know that 3 million homes is not a lot relative to the country’s population. However I am not ready to write them off as useless, since strategically placing these homes in the right areas may still have a significant impact.___

There are plenty of homes already.

Plenty of homes where? In my city, which is a major job center, there are hardly any houses for sale. It doesn’t really matter if there are plenty of houses 1+ hours away from my job.

Lol, I have come to the conclusion that I want less of whatever this is. Here’s your medal for winning whatever debate you thought we were having. 🏅

I mean, I’m not calling for a police state to shut down cake day or something. Just saying cake day was a shallow activity imo. People can choose to do whatever they want, but I would rather us think about what was actually valuable about reddit rather than just importing whatever preexisting culture there was.

You’re getting a lot of retorts in response to your comment, but I 100% agree. Sure telling people happy cake day is fun the first few times, but it inevitably just becomes stale. One of the things that made reddit not enjoyable was people parroting the same phrases all over the site.

I hug my guy friends when I haven’t seen them in a while (e.g. my friends who live far away). Snuggling is super weird, and I don’t know of any guys who have done that. Feels like if I did, my wife would not be very happy. Affectionate fighting seems just over the top. Seems like something limited to children and movies.

I think the amount of physical affection I get from other men is fine. Don’t really need more

I don’t know why an MSN link was used instead of a direct link to the article:

https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/microsoft-is-warping-the-pc-industry/

I would argue that it is better to have two separate drives for the installation. It simplifies things for non tech savvy people, and I believe Windows has less of an opportunity to mess with your linux install, such as messing with the efi partition.

Again, not giving them a free pass. Just pointing out the terminology used is an overstatement.

I mean, I’m not exactly giving FF a pass here but rewarded is factually incorrect considering FF was paid to do the gig. The show wasn’t some free pat on the back for the execs doing such a great job.

Maybe the AI writing the articles are just taking credit for everything. “Yeah, that was me”

Personally I do not let internet trends affect my behavior out in the real world. Why is that? Because if I use the term “short king” anywhere in the real world, 99% of people won’t know what I’m talking about. Until you hear a real person say it (that means not on lemmy, not on twitter, not on dating apps, etc. or people you meet through these platforms) you can assume that there is no real impact to be had there. I think we give way too much credit to the internet for affecting real life trends. Most people don’t care about these cute terminologies people come up with, and neither should you. The term was made to get someone attention, not to make short people feel better.

Ctrl + Shift + - should decrease the font size of the current terminal, which isn’t what you are looking for, but could be useful while you sort it out. Is it possible that the font in the config doesn’t exist, causing this issue?

What happens when the defaults change? Is old code all of a sudden not following the style guidelines?
