She could have held to her no-fracking stance, broke with Biden over Gaza, not promised to build a border wall, or not promised to put a Republican in the cabinet. Any one of these might have made the difference

An illogical and faint hope that Harris's campaign will commit to being less cartoonishly evil in the Middle East if they see their Michigan numbers are looking bad enough and also my polling place is close, quick, and convenient.

Call it harsh if you want, but they react to my identity and my beliefs with violence. I'm not going to put myself in that situation and frankly they don't have anything interesting to say. Why continue a relationship in which I would either have to lie completely about who I am, or tolerate hate speech directed at me or my loved ones? I don't get anything out of being connected to them, its actively detrimental to my well being. The ones who were family I made it clear that they would not have a relationship with me if they kept at it and they did, so they chose hate over me.

I cut them out. Don't remember where I heard the quote but there was one that goes something like "Our values are so different that any relationship we could have that doesn't fall to violence cannot be a genuine one." Essentially we care about things that are too different to be able to talk to each other honestly and get along.

Yes, generally I will look in my county newspaper for the less high profile races because they run short interviews with a lot of the down ballot candidates. Higher office candidates I'm generally familiar with long before the election

Same figures for me:

  • Convenience store: 2.7km
  • Supermarket: 2.5km
  • Bus stop: 4.2km (this may be incorrect I think there was a closer one that didn't show on the map)
  • Park: 6.2km
  • Big Supermarket: 3.5km
  • Library: 6km
  • Train station: 7.9km
  • Hart Plaza(nowhere really analogous to big Ben around me): 46km

  1. Agreed. People do put others into boxes, and dismiss them.
  2. Not historically and especially in the 90's, but also currently. The dems are absolutely still corporate dogshit.
  3. Speaking of putting people in boxes, everyone criticizing from the left is a secret trump supporter, and lying about their values.

I was in an EMN relationship when we met on a hookup subreddit. My partner was at the time struggling with an addiction, and forgot our first conversation when I messaged the next day, but I was patient and went back over it with them. My EMN relationship combusted a few months later when my ex forgot the ethical part, and after a few more months of seeing each other more casually, my partner and I became an item. Its been six years now and I still can't believe how lucky I was to be scrolling just the right reddit at just the right time to meet the love of my life.

Hopefully they will have more variety in more respectful presentation through a voluntary exchange with other museums. That would be the dream at least

So many things, too many to count. Been revisiting things pretty regularly with my partner and the ones that don't make me cringe are really rare. Things I adore are unwatchably sexist, homophobic, transphobic, or creepy.

Interesting thought, I did do some work with DSRC systems for Vehicle-to-Vehicle communication, but DSRC is still pretty rare. Back during Obama's presidency the OEMs seemed to just be exploring a bit and waiting to see if it became a mandated safety system, but that never materialized.

These days the market seems to be moving towards Cellular Vehicle to Vehicle on 5G ( peer-to-peer), but once these techs have more adoption I think it's more likely that the car would connect to a dedicated piece of infrastructure that would relay with the cloud. Despite there being movement towards having more computing power in vehicle, I.M.O. the OEMS are too conservative on spending for computing power, so I don't see a future where the cloud is other cars. If cars still exist in 20 years, I would be amazed if vehicle networks weren't ubiquitous for safety though.

I'm a software developer. I work in automotive and do a bit of everything from embedded programming to cloud based software.
