Right. I laughed my ass off, because it's fucking true.

We've got two old as shit dudes, both with shit memories, running for president.

Sure one is the better option, but neither are great options... And imagine them in four more years

Yikes.

I feel like I live on the Internet and I never see this shit. Either it doesn't exist or I exist on a completely different plane of the net.

Y'all acting like lake shore Ave didn't become a gas powered graveyard during a blizzard a decade ago.

Inflation, shrinkflation, record corporate profits, rising home prices, the billionaire class getting orders of magnitude richer, and my paycheck going up a mere three percent a year... thats sort of why I feel like the economy sucks a bag of dicks.

I'm still doing well. I have a house. I have a car. I have a job.... but in comparison I'm not moving forward. So that is why I feel like the economy sucks.

Let's be 100 fair

Biden is too damn old. So is trump.

There are 365,000,000 people in the us. There is a zero sum chance these are our two best options.

I will vote against Biden in the primary and rail against him on every fucking poll I get the chance to do so in. He billed himself as a transition president. A one and done option.

However, in Nov of 2024 when I'm forced to hold my breath and vote for old white guy vs old white guy, I'll pick the democrat... But I'm not fucking happy about it... And you can bet your ass that the people ten to twenty years younger than me are less thrilled than I.

Remember when hrc was lambasted for calling these folks deplorable?

I always thought she was right and she should doubled down.

Like I've definitely raised my voice with my kids but couldn't imagine a world where I ever would call them stupid. That is just trash parenting and amazing that anyone would do that to their offspring.

New to obsidian.

I'm trying to set up my daily journal to have a task list at the top, and then an unfinished task list below.

How do I get my unfinished task list to only show tasks that are less than the current day?

This is what I have so far:


dataview
task

from "Daily Notes"

WHERE !completed AND text != ""

As the title suggests, I've got an old 500gb SSD running my main OS on my desktop, and I just purchased a 2tb m2 drive and want to migrate over without a big headache.

Does anyone have any guides that they recommend to do this? I haven't tried to migrate an OS in probably a decade, I just usually do a fresh install, but I no longer want to do that as my time/files are worth more to me now.

Thanks!

Hey all,

Personal machine here, and I can't figure out whats going on. My windows 11 machine turns off the nic when it goes to sleep, so when I go to use my pc, I have to wait about 30 secons while it wakes up.

I've tried all the basic fixes i've found online, like ensuring the nic can't sleep, the drivers on the nic are up-to-date, and that my power management settings won't put it to sleep, but nothing works.

Anyone else seen this in the wild and know how to fix it?

here's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee—that says, 'Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again.'"

I'll never understand how they can watch this man fuck over every single person he has ever encountered, and be like, "nah, he won't do that to me."

I absolutely hate these links about videos without a clear area where the actual video is.

That like four people have as much wealth as 7 billion others.

Well the penalty is a slap on the wrist to a company of googles side.

Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.
