Well, IRL hacking doesn't have exciting gameplay mechanics. So more realistic hacking game might not be such a clever idea.

Thanks for more insight.

I've seen some AOC memes but didn't really notice her beyond that. Again, European viewpoint. She doesn't really make it into European news.

That doesn't mean the dumbass won't try to pull some sketchy shit and I honestly wouldn't put it past him to try.

I read something about right-wingers trying to claim that the 22nd amendment only says that nobody should be elected twice, so if Trump gets into office without getting elected, everything is fine. So their plan is to get someone else elected in Trump's stead and that person should then just appoint Trump as the new president, because according to them, that's apparently possible. And with their surpreme pile of garbage that they call a court, that might just work.

Scary times.

And in the end they just yell at a menopausal woman who can't afford hormone replacement therapy.

True, but the one who gets inconvenienced the most is the poor minimum wage fool working at the dealership.

Seriously: That guy is worth half a trillion dollars. Even if he looses 99% of his wealth, he wouldn't actually notice. It wouldn't change one thing about his living standard.

I've seen a 3DS in the Technical Museum in Vienna.

"Don't have a religion" includes

• Atheists
• Agnostics
• Spiritual but not religious people
• Religious but unaffiliated people

Saying "don't have a religion" equals atheist is like claiming that everyone who didn't vote for Trump or Harris is an anarchist.

Try adding up ethnic groups. If you count Jewish as a separate ethnicity, you get an estimated total of 225% and even without Jews it's still 195%.

I'd like to know how large their sample size was. I mean, this was yougov, so I expect at least some level of credibility to this, but depending on how large the same size is and how biased your selection is, you can get some really weird numbers.

E.g. do the same study with some old KKK members or with a school class in a black, impoverished neighbourhood or with a group of CEOs and you will get very different results.

Maybe they think all the trans people are in some other part of the country like New York or California, or maybe they think that trans people are so indistinguishable from cis people that anyone they meet could be secretly trans?

That could explain the paranoia that some people have about trans people. And also why people e.g. think that Daniel Radcliffe's wife is trans because she's taller than him (even though they have a child together, but then again, maybe these people think that transwomen can get pregnant.).

Read the linked source.

the religiously unaffiliated share of the population, consisting of people who describe their religious identity as atheist, agnostic or 'nothing in particular,'

Many of the unaffiliated retain religious beliefs or practices without affiliating.

One fifth of the US public and a third of adults under the age of 30 are reportedly unaffiliated with any religion, however they identify as being spiritual in some way. Of these religiously unaffiliated Americans, 37% classify themselves as spiritual but not religious.

Affiliation is about which community you are affiliated with. It's not about beliefs at all, actually. Affiliated means "I would call myself an X", and if you are not affiliated with a certain group, you are not affiliated, no matter if you are atheist, agnostic, spiritual but not religious or even religious but not strong enough to actually affiliate with one group.

Remember, atheism is a belief in itself, contrary to agnosticism. Atheism is the conviction that no God exists, even though there's no proof for an absence of a God. Agnosticism on the other hand is acknowledging that there is no proof that God does or doesn't exist, so they just don't care about it.

Atheism is in many ways similar to a religion. There are communities formed around the shared belief that God doesn't exist, they preach that God doesn't exist, they study their literature to find proof that God doesn't exist. They defend their faith that God doesn't exist, like any religious person would defend theirs. There are even atheist missionaries who stand on street corners preaching that God doesn't exist.

To be an Atheist is to believe so strongly that God doesn't exist that it becomes something like a religion in itself, and that's rather rare.

Agnosticism on the other hand is really wide-spread, even within religiously affiliated people. There are tons of religiously affiliated people who are socially religiously affiliated but are actually agnostic ("All my friends and family are X. I don't really care whether God exists or not, I don't really believe in the spiritual teachings of my faith, but I'm not that much at odds with it that I can't live as an X, and denouncing the faith would lead to repercussions, so I'll just formally keep being X, because it's less hassle.").

He shows everyone his hand, but in his hand he holds a royal flush, 5 black lotus, a Mega Mewtwo, and half a trillion dollars.

The problem is that the cards are stacked so much in his favour that he doesn't have to hide his hand. We see him allright. But what good does this do? Can we un-elect him? Can we impeach him? What can we do? Pretty much nothing.

The only people that will remain loyal to Mush are centrists/ politically disinterested people.

What do you define as a centrist in that context? From an European viewpoint, most democrats are right-wing politicians, some of them even far right. Bernie Sanders is the only one that comes to mind that could be seen as center-left.

And politically disinterested people don't sound like a relevant political force...

They have to be careful about it too, since they have propped him up and Trump is a megalomaniac who actually thinks he deserves to be where his and his base are rabidly, stupidly obedient to him.

They created a quite sizeable cult of personality around Trump. Getting rid of him will at least hurt during the next election. That is, if there is an election and the magats have the mental capacity to remember what happened a year ago from then.
