paranoia. I am familiar.

you get a confirmation email in the states I know about after your vote is counted early, so you know that your vote was received and recorded.

how would voting in a person make it more difficult for the non-federal employees to throw away your vote versus federal employees in a federal building?

or does it just feel-better-in-person?

I’m just curious about personal experiences here, you should definitely go in person if you prefer that.

oh, cool.

that makes sense.

i’ve usually lived in busier places, so there was always long lines and just everything was a mess.

and I’ve never lived close, so it was always a chore to get there in the first place.

nice!

they really didn’t want me there anyway.

I’m providing a service.

“Would your treatise allow this to work if he’s not a sith, but instead an incredibly powerful by oblivious force user?”

yeah, it’s as good as any other theory, maybe better than the sith one because there are less obvious things to point out that don’t work.

it kind of sounds like a xanth premise, if you ever read those books.

I don’t think there are strong enough foundations to hold the assumptions together myself, most binks theories I’ve read rely on a passive series of events and assumptions occurring in the background.

and I like them all.

i like the Darth Darth Binks theory and other theories, but taken in context with what is depicted on screen, how straightforward Star wars is, and what the actors and production team and scripts say about the character, there’s no cohesive or convincing supporting evidence that Jar Jar was anything other than comic relief and then a hastily minimized plot device after audiences rebelled against him.

meesa?

this shocked a lot of people, but the frog guy jumping didn’t convince me he was sith!

I wrote like a 30,000 word treatise refuting every point of the Darth Jar jar with the help of an advocate.

for fun.

it would be great, but it seems unlikely and extremely lacking in evidence when you look at each point one by one and put everything back together.

sorry to be late, but I’ve been using a dual boot Linux windows for several years, I leave secure boot off.

That’s easily toggled in the bios.

I was worried about this dual boot problem too, but I’ve had no problem switching back and forth between Linux and windows like normal for weeks now, so I don’t think it’s a problem, especially if secure boot is disabled.

lofi hiphop

oh good, that totally makes senseWHAT?!

oh, got it.

I almost quoted the whole thing because I was like why would they write “newcomer” and “for years” one after the other?

thanks

“One of the notable newcomers is FitGirl-Repacks”

Fitgirl’s been around over a decade.

they’ll catch up to fitgirl in another decade or so, by which time there are going to be five new fitgirls. five dozen?

was that their stated reason for attacking the internet archive?

to bring awareness to the security breaches?

little fucks.

“I stole your wallet because pockets are so vulnerable. I’m helping.”

apparently it is not shelf stable either, hahaha.

Walmart and Amazon have expensive canned bread.

apparently people like it?

as for cool vending machines… gotta be cool to have cool vending machines.

I had to think it up a little earlier since I was talking about this an hour before I saw this post or so with someone else and didn’t want to keep repeating less polite terms.

It’s upsetting in its own way though, isn’t it?

i hear you, fast food meat doesn’t even taste like meat to me at this point, it’s so clearly the lowest common denominator of protein.

I’ve eaten rat, snake, crocodile, everything i can try, but the most recent time i can remember my stomach feeling rough after eating was the last time I ate McDonald’s years ago on a whim; I felt greasy, logy and nauseous almost immediately after eating it.

like I was poisoned or something.

makes sense.

I’ve switched between a lot of different diets, and anecdotally meat, alcohol, and sugar play a huge role in how bad i and my byproducts smell.

actually, I’m in India right now and am shocked that so far it’s the least smelly country in terms of sewage and BO I’ve been to, tied with Japan so far.

I say so far because I’ve only been here for 2 weeks.

I’ve been all over Asia and there’s always a sewage smell somewhere, or a smelly river, or you can smell BO on people when you’re crowded together on a bus, but now I’m in India and there’s no sewage smell, and I’m here during a huge festival, literally one of tens of thousands of people crowded in these temples without smelling any BO, and I’m wondering if it’s a cultural habit that is dovetailing into their infrastructure and hygiene(kind of like how Chinese chefs traditionally cook everything at super high heats, even though the origin is tied into making sure the food is clean) and their sewage pipes are all very far removed or thickly covered and treated, or if the largely vegetarian diet plays into a much less offensive smell overall in terms of bodily function and by-products.

daaaang that sounds good.
