Caitlin Clark’s Instagram Account Flooded With Negative Comments After She Liked Taylor Swift’s Endorsement of Kamala Harris in c/news@lemmy.world
Early polls say Harris won the presidential debate in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I can’t imagine watching it and thinking he won. It’s almost like any democrat who thought Biden won the first one. You can try to find glimmers to grasp on to, but the reality is the oldest guy in each debate was made to look like a fool.

Debate wrap up: No one has ever so thoroughly dominated Donald Trump in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think there are people who have conservative values which they believe are better for the country but also struggle with the thought of supporting Trump. For those people, last night’s debate probably pushed them further away from him. Some may go to Harris which is the hope.

I wish she would have invited those people directly in her closing statement. Something along the lines of “If you don’t agree with me, I’m hear to listen and understand why. Together, we can move forward instead of going back to chaos and anger and division “

It's true, I really do have concepts of a plan. Beyond that..? in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

I love how fast this is happening.

It’s amazing how bad that is.

They scrapped most of the movie for creative reasons? Wow. The way it was written, I would think the second half was mostly laid out. Part 1 was freaking fantastic and it’ll suck waiting two and a half more years for it.

Apple may ditch FineWoven cases, return to leather-like material in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

That’s what I figured they’d jump to. It matches their branding focused and fixes the problem with their premium cases.

Best large TV (70+ inches) for under $1000? in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

General buying advice: 70” is a size used by manufacturers on budget units that use panels from prior years.

Go with 65” or 75”. Now, to find a balance of size and performance, 65” might be the better option.

Man, someone at the school really dropped the ball if this is true.

Kamala Harris to propose up to $50,000 tax deduction for new small businesses in c/news@lemmy.world

Interesting incentive move. I immediately wonder how people are going to exploit it, though I don’t believe the potential for abuse should dissuade an attempt at progress.

Seems to be a decent answer considering the source.

These motivational messages on the computer screen in an emergency department hospital room in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world
[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I mean I’m sure your situation sucks, but I can’t believe this could be even mildly infuriating. Should they have a space screen saver? Should they have images that remind people how fucked they might be? It’s cheesy shit, sure, but sheesh.

Where to find Marketplace support? (lemmy.world)
 

Long story short, my son plays Minecraft on the iPad and used some gold coins to purchase an add-on (“TNT!”) from the marketplace. Unlike other addons that work fine, this one gives a “Download Failed” error message every time he tries to install it. I can not, for the life of me, figure out where a support option is for Mojang to help resolve the issue or refund the coins. Does anyone here have any suggestions?

Door hinge pin keeps coming up. How to solve? (lemmy.world)
 

Looking for help in solving a problem where the lower door hinge pin on my entry door keeps creeping up and causing the deadbolt to become slightly misaligned making it more difficult to lock. Reading online, I keep coming across suggestions of tightening a screw that’s supposed to lock the pin in place but my hinges don’t seem to have that screw.

Anyone have any other ideas on how to fix this problem?

Halo S02E08 Thoughts? (lemmy.world)
 

I don’t want to post too much and spoil for people who haven’t watched it yet, but I can’t believe the season is already over. The table settling in the final episode is great, but the almost spiteful desire to show this is its own timeline by making some very permanent decisions seems to remove some of the layers of complexity that made the original story line so good.

[MacOS] Anti-virus recommendations? (lemmy.world)
 

Looking for some insight into what everyone is using for antivirus. I have AVG a whirl but I experienced some weird stuttering on my M2 MacBook Air, so obviously I want something that is minimally impactful on performance while still being accurate.

Freestar Collective and all security forces fire on sight with no existing bounty (lemmy.world)

I don’t have any bounties according to the kiosks, yet Freestar Collective and Akila Security fire on me on sight. I have no idea why. Has anyone else run in to this? I’m not sure what to do other than constantly flee.

Edit: Used wrong version of “sight”

Edit: it’s all security forces except the UC.

Like the title says, I’ve been unable to get my unread replies in the inbox. The loading circle just spins endlessly.

Find My Frustrations (lemmy.world)
 

Thought I lost my AirPods (3rd Gen) at work yesterday. Find My kept saying they were last seen there two days ago and when I turned on “Notify when found” it would send me notifications within a minute that they were at my work address. Searched all over waiving my phone around and couldn’t find them.

They were at home. 10 miles away. I was holding them in my hand, fully charged, and Find My was still telling me they were at work.

[Bug] specific post loops forever in feed and in post view (lemmy.world)
 

https://lemmy.world/post/7304479

That post causes an endless scroll repeating the same text over and over again. This doesn’t happen in a few other clients I’ve tested it with. Same behavior in feed view or post view.

Development update? (lemmy.world)
 

Don’t want to be THAT guy, but I paid for the premium version so I feel like that earns a bit of a pass.

Is Bean still being developed? I understand Steve had a case of Covid that took a while to get over, but he’s been almost nonexistent on Lemmy, in general, and there’s been little communication. Sure, I jumped and took the chance with my money on a newly developed app, but I was hoping the development would be further encouraged by the starting subscribers.

There hasn’t been an answer on my thread asking about 0.19 support which means, possibly, the app won’t even function in the near future.

Hoping to hear from the dev that things are picking back up again.
