In this context she is far too old.

Caught me!
Oh yes - I was on Slashdot and I’ll throw in Fark. :-)
Where is that place?
Yep, dropped Digg for Reddit. Dropped Reddit for Lemmy. Will drop Lemmy for something else if I end up not liking it. 😎
He’s so old he requires a bandage the size of his ear for a 2 centimeter cut.
I hope so and if true we have to trust the data. My vote is solid blue based on virtues and most policies. There’s probably a lot of others like me.
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH ALL MY BIDEN HATS, FLAGS, T-SHIRTS, AND STICKERS?!
/Just kidding - not in a cult 😅
I agree with you that ranked choice voting is he answer, but we have to deal with what we have today. I see one party being a much easier path in progressing to ranked choice voting vs another so it’s a pretty easy vote on my behalf (among many, many other reasons) this time around.
Ohhh this audio is much clearer. Sounds like gun shots to me now! Thanks for posting.
SS will definitely jump in if the person they are protecting goes down or if there’s anything that could potentially be a danger. The audience behind him didn’t react like there were gunshots. It could be because they heard the source of the sound and could understand the trajectory better. I’m keeping an open mind.
Snipers would be shooting from a distance. You can look up gunshot / gunshot sounds on youtube and compare. It could be the audio setup though. Looking forward to finding out more. The audience reaction is what is strange to me. It’s more of “what is that?” vs “OMG gun shots!! run!”
In watching the video and listening to the sound over and over it doesn’t sound like a gunshot and people around did not act as if it were a gunshot. My guess is it was maybe a pellet or BB gun.
Edit: I’m hearing others were shot and seriously injured in the crowd. Witness said they thought it was fireworks at first - which makes sense. This would point to actual gun shots. Waiting for more news to come in. Sad day for politics in general whomever you support.
Edit 2: Reports of two crowd members shot. One dead. One injured. :-(

Jumping in here with a couple cents. Background: Old millennial, paid off home, pension, 401K, 6 figs. I’ll be able to retire. My viewpoint: Automation and AI will accelerate. “Safe” jobs will be gone. In fact most jobs will be gone by 2029 (my guess). Goal: keep working and investing until I lose my job.
Hard times will hit because government is slow and wealthy people won’t care until it affects them. Once jobs are cut, profits for many businesses will fall because no one will be buying anything with the money they aren’t making. As big companies begin to fail, stocks will have already begun dropping. Wealthy will go after government and government will have to do something. Only good option to keep things running: Universal Basic Income. Question is where does the money come from? Answer: AI/robots will be taxed and taxed almost 100% more than a human. Why? They won’t care.
This leads us into humans have free-time to do whatever they like. Some can work where AI/robots fail for whatever reason, some can create new things using all the new tools. Businesses will still try and make the best products so the wealthy can still feel better with all the money that really won’t matter as much anymore. They’ll enjoy some exclusive things but it will likely be just locations and not technology.
TL;DR: Hell at first, then modern day renaissance.
Matt’s just fine, what do you think they made the paste out of? “Is that hair gel?”
We can change societies in a few ways to reduce the number of people that reach her situation. That’s going to take a very long time. Another thing that could be done is creating a plan for people in her situation. I think this will happen in the future (and will impact society in general). It has to do with the use of psychedelics. It may sound crazy to some, but I’d recommend we give people like this some shrooms, then escalate that to something like Ayahuasca and then DMT. If she still feels like nothing is worth it at that point, so be it, but I believe she’d change her mind on this path and have the potential to live a much happier life. This comment may seem extreme now, but looking back, I don’t think it will be.
I guess you round up.
Tell them it’s on Hunter’s laptop and watch them implode!
