Christian here. Can confirm that he checks a lot of the boxes for me. It's terrifying to me how completely the alleged Church has accepted him.

Just like Donald Trump is the "hero" our conservative friends deserve.

I'll figure out how to get the info sent to O'Leary. Then I'll check in with the mods to see if there's any rules to follow. It would be nice to do this as a community.

So how do we do this? Post the campaign on anti work, work reform, etc? Do we want to post elsewhere, or see how far this goes on Lemmy?

As long as it's garnished with lark's vomit.

You're right on making it more pithy, but if prefer something like #nomorecrap

Repost with that as the title.

Halo 2 and 3

"Master Chief, do mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?"

"Sir, finishing this fight."

Still gives me tingles.

If Kev and his cronies keep pushing their neofeudalist garbage, that might just be the solution we'll see.

This could work.

There's a lot of talk these days about people being cancelled. This guy seems like the sort of person that would be an excellent candidate for it. I believe we, as a society, ought to collectively express our disgust at this kind of behavior.

So how is it done? How do we figuratively light the signal fires of Gondor and call forth the hosts to confront this evil?

I agree. I just have no idea how to motivate folks to do that. Hence the despair.

 

It's got 250,000 miles and is $5,500. It's a former taxi service car, apparently. Obviously, a pre-purchase inspection would be a must. I've heard these cars are very reliable, but the mileage, accident history (3, not sure how serious), and potential status of the high voltage battery give me pause. I'm leaning against traveling to look at it, but I'm wondering if the model is just so good it's worth a try at that price point.

It would be replacing a 2015 Kia Soul with about 80,000 miles--Kia's engine woes have me spooked, so I'm considering trying to get something more likely to go for several hundred thousand miles. Any thoughts?

 

I'm looking to replace the HDD on an HP Pavilion dv 6 6130-us. It has an i-3 2330M CPU. I know it's old as dirt, but I'd like to use it to run old games. It's also the only thing I own with a CD drive.

I've upgraded the RAM to the maximum it will support (16 GB). I'm thinking an SSD will help it run a great deal faster, but I'm stuck on what to get. So far, the Crucial MX500 seems like a good choice, but I'm wondering if any semi-reliable cheap SSD will do for something this old. I have to stick with something with a 2.5 inch form factor that uses SATA. Thoughts?

 

I'm getting a lot of parts in languages I can't read. Can I filter for just my native language?
