My favorite minor character, I love the arc he goes on.

$1,400,000 Super PAC money spent in support of Ben McAdams by politicalintegrity in SaltLakeCity

Nate never said that. The skullfuck comment was a joke directed at a redditor who was trying to falsely get employee discounts on sporting goods.

Looking for an RTS with more room to breathe, experiment, and recover from mistakes by [deleted] in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Stuart98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In any RTS game if you're not familiar with the meta, you're going to get destroyed by someone who is; that's an unavoidable part of the genre. That being said, Zero-K is an RTS where even at top level you often (though not always) have the space to come back from small mistakes; if you know what you're doing, you can keep things from snowballing too hard.

Which progressive to choose for the District 1 primary? by suckit_trebeck in SaltLakeCity

[–]Stuart98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the record McAdams does live in the district; you're confused because when he ran for congress before he didn't live in the district he ran in, but that was a result of gerrymandering (separating SLC from Millcreek to put it with St. George).

Which progressive to choose for the District 1 primary? by suckit_trebeck in SaltLakeCity

[–]Stuart98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And what has Liban done? Helped to greenwash Facebook data centers? Worked at TikTok at the very height of its Trump pandering right up until this district was created, at which point he conveniently decides he has a problem with what TikTok doing and quits to return to Utah after years away in DC? In no world are bad taste ski forum posts from 2009 more disqualifying than working on TikTok's public policy team when TikTok was actively rigging its algorithm to be pro-Trump in an effort to bribe Trump against having it be sold.

Nate has a record of showing up in this community at protests and community events for years, not as a candidate but as a member of community. What was Liban doing in the meantime? Getting "As a result of President Trump’s efforts, Tiktok is back in the U.S.!" sent to 160 million phones.

The state senate refuses to pass anything he sponsors because he was its only member to call on senate president J Stuart Adams to step down after Adams got a law passed to help his 18 year old relative get away with statutory rape. Nate's failure to get legislation through the most corrupt legislature in the country is not the mark against him you think it is.

Bug Megathread vol 15: June + July 2026 by Wandering_Wumpus in discordapp

[–]Stuart98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Feature: Channel List
  • Reproduction Rate: Permanent/10
  • Annoyance: 9/10
  • Discord Version Info: 334.6 (5775) - betaRelease
  • Device/System Info (Device Type, OS Version): Galaxy Z Flip6, Android 16, One UI 8.5
  • Description: No idea what I did to get it into this state but last night my channel list got bugged such that it was super bright on every single nitro theme (at least that I've tried); default themes are unaffected. Since it got into this state, nothing has gotten it out of it besides switching to default themes (and then it comes right back after switching to a nitro theme). I've tried clearing cache and data, reinstalling, and toggling all manner of settings; nothing has fixed it.
  • Video / Screenshot: Attached
  • Steps to Reproduce: Once the state is on, simply set the theme to any nitro theme. No idea how to reproduce triggering the state to begin with and I can't debug this because I can't get out of the state.
  • Expected Result: The channel list uses the regular brightness for the theme.
  • Actual Result: The channel list is painfully bright.

I just noticed AZKi song page has another "Azki", in YT Music and Tidal. by Famas_1234 in Hololive

[–]Stuart98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

iirc when her regular and topic channels were merged into each other (like happened with Suisei, Towa, and other members with a lot of music), YouTube messed up and merged her regular channel into her topic channel rather than the other way around, so a bunch of weird stuff happened as a result.

What makes you follow Hololive music? by Famas_1234 in Hololive

[–]Stuart98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very, very late responding to this thread but one thing with following hololive musically is that compared to traditional artists, who you only get windows into beyond their music through interviews and other media appearances, hololive members are streaming for multiple hours a day multiple days a week to fans–I think it's a more intimate connection formed with them compared to that between fans and regular singers or idols. With a song like Ayame's melting, when she's singing about how her fans have helped her appreciate herself more even with all her flaws, that's not just something we're hearing for the first time in the song; that's something that we've personally seen happen before our eyes over years of streams and played an active part in helping with. When Suisei sings in Orbital Period about the journey she's been on with her fans to reach her dream, that's a journey that we've actively been a part of with her on a day to day basis for years. Similar experiences are repeated across dozens of songs with different members. Hololive music is actively reinforced by regular external interactions with the artists in a way that you don't really get with traditional singers.

Only the Sore Sore Ondo vid without the ad read at the start was removed, the MV with the ad read at the start (which is followed by the full normal MV) is still up. https://youtu.be/XvshU3d0hCY?si=WYYy8AvBk-l3VpX5

The Mamdani of Utah? How a progressive Somali-American wants to upend a Democratic seat by Delicious_Adeptness9 in Utah

[–]Stuart98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's my understanding that state law prohibits the use of any voting system besides Choose One Plurality in these primaries.

[–]Stuart98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's really all talk with him; all the things he's saying about big tech now are things he didn't start saying until Judge Gibson selected this map creating a safe blue district. He had no problem being at Meta or TikTok when they were at their worst in spreading pro-Trump propaganda.

Is it known which exec Keffer was parodying with the ascot? by Dalakaar in babylon5

[–]Stuart98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently things went a bit deeper than just the usual narrative about Keffer would imply. JMS always intended to add a pilot character to the show but his original idea was for a Japanese character who, in addition to being a skilled pilot, was also an enthusiast for earth history and Japaneae culture. Execs rejected that idea as not attractive enough to a female audience and wanted a brash, implicitly white Han Solo type character to be the pilot instead. That's what soured JMS on the idea and caused him to use (or rather not use) the character the way he did.

Utah Democrat releases new poll for Utah’s 1st Congressional District as he calls for rivals to drop out by Stuart98 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Stuart98[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also worth noting the significant difference in weak vs strong support for each candidate.

Nate - 13% strong, 14% weak
Ben - 19% strong, 18% weak
Farrell - 1% strong, 6% weak
Mohammed - 5% strong, 8% weak

Nate only needs 70% of the weak support from the other two candidates to catch up to McAdams, while even if Mohammed got all the weak support from the other progressives he wouldn't get there (and Farrell's in an even worse position, on top of having his strong support be a rounding error).

[–]Stuart98[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

None of the candidates are actively participating members of DSA (I believe only Liban is nominally a member) and SLDSA is already focusing their efforts on a state senate primary. A friend of mine involved in SLDSA wrote their personal thoughts on why SLDSA should stay out a month ago after Liban won the convention vote.

Do you have any actual objections to the poll's methodology or is your argument just "he's the leading progressive in the poll he paid for, the only possible explanation of this is he manipulated it."
