I grew up in a village in Ohio, population around 350, which was pushing the numbers honestly. Around 1000 is a town I think.

A nearby “city” is constantly in and out of city status. They always try to bump the numbers because city status means more funding. They are around 25000 pop.

Wait… I heard that librewolf wasn’t getting proper updates anymore? Did it get picked up again or am I missing something?

Imageglass is FOSS? oh heck yeah I love it even more!

Is that half-life generation? Damn, I bet kids these days haven’t even heard of that one.

That’s still high, assuming cad, but much better. It’s around 6-8 ‘freedom’ dollars down here is southern America.

Small store, no tips, be quiet? Sounds like heaven.

Make a bot that viscously rips Into people based off their username lol

But for real, nice. I get by with kobold for my uses. How far do you think you’ll take this?

Very true. But what if Elon goes on a crusade against Wikipedia? Or he’ll, just continues to spread misinformation/slander against it? He wouldn’t have to spend a penny and Wikipedia would start feeling the burn, his influence is great sadly. The sheer amount o people that would cause problems for them would grow exponentially. 1.5 years is not enough when this asshole is basically the president for the next 4 years. It’s very sad things have gotten this bad. :(

Progressively more expensive!

I had to look up what a shoe horn even was.

Perhaps they are needed for certain feet types? Do you wear alot fancy shoes?

Just Mozilla things. /s

Babe quick, new toilet lore just dropped!

I’ll have to look into Illinois, I’m originally from Ohio, and oh boy let me tell you, I hate Columbus. It’s practically half of the state at this point. And that sucks, the extended area is seriously changing how Ohio looks, so many suburbs, so many factories.

Yeah, I think that’s how the separation is supposed to work. That being said, seems like the supreme court keeps poking it’s nose where it doesn’t belong. But all I can really do is complain on a lesser used website and vote.

Also, side note, how is Montana? I live in Texas atm, cause I followed my fiance down here, and it sucks. But we eventually want to get a house and may not stay here.

Hard agree.

As someone that grew up most of my life in a tiny, rural Ohio area. There are so many strange laws that extend from the cities, many of which can outright just be bad for the area.

Policy wise, local democrats are rarely liked and seen as weak in rural areas, which in my experience is usually correct, unfortunately. The Republicans are always money grabbers but generally get things done.

Frankly the system sucks.

This comment is short sighted. As if I, a single person could change the government and slide it left.

Be change you want to see simply doesn’t work in a group setting. I can only work with what I have.

Alot of this is due to the changes of the times. More people lean harder on both sides nowadays, or so it feels. The political landscape has changed alot since back then.

No idea what to make of all that though. Politics are hard.

I’m definitely center. There’s a ton of stuff I disagree with the majority of Lemmy on. (At least my home instance .world). That’s because reality is nuanced, not all progressive politics work, or left politicians good.

But I’m not stupid, both sides clearly are not the same. Both bad in unique ways (from an American perspective that is) but one side is so much worse than the other to such a extreme degree that most of their politicians and even to a smaller degree their followers are just not worth the time of day.

I wish we lived in a world where we could all get along and have differing ideas without everyone getting all mad. Sadly we don’t. So I play the line, that way my family can hopefully get the best outcome. It’s all I can do.

You had a distinct lack of willpower, you lacked the willpower to be nice to someone.

Funniest shit I ever saw…

Edit: autocorrect screwed me.
