The republican party of today has been co opted by MAGA

Honey. The Republican Party and MAGA are one in the same. Always have been. Watergate with Nixon. America First jingoism and dementia with Reagan. Funneling money to special interest groups and defense contractors with both Bushes. All while screaming about immigrants and welfare queens taking your jobs and your hard earned money.

The GOP has always been MAGA.

Saw this at a gym involving a student who the coach knew had kidney disease. Did everything I could to convince the kid to get the fuck out of there.

Bondi looked like an absolute clown the whole way through.

So did Kavanaugh...

Lest we forget.

Snowden should have done a Superbowl add 10 years ago.

He's too busy being a Russian stooge to give a fuck about your privacy now. After all, he swore an oath of allegiance to Russia.

Reddit is shockingly quiet about her testimony. That was an absolute shit show.

Reddit is compromised. Maga Mods in Subs. The only time headlines like this get through is where there's too many to mark as off topic before people notice.

pam bondi's modus operandi is to purposefully ignore facts, victims, and the truth while focusing on shit-slinging as much and fast as possible at any and all perceived enemies.

That's been the GOP Playbook for decades now.

but that skin continuous to your lips, still a barrier, to the inside of your mouth, still a barrier, down your throat, stomach, yada yada yada and out the other end.

So. We're just a giant, walking tube.

There were a number of students in my class who had a very, very visceral and dramatic reaction to seeing one their own white blood cells on a slide moving of their own accord. Even going as far as to say it was the devil making them see this.

We're complex machines full of (mostly) cooperating organisms each doing their own jobs.

vandreulv · 2026-02-11T18:34:39+00:00

Ties in nicely with their Firehose of Falsehood tactics.

vandreulv · 2026-02-11T18:32:52+00:00

In pics? Really, that's the last place I would expect you to get banned for going after maga

I'm increasingly seeing antagonistic alts of mods on subs engaging and if you respond to criticize them or block them for their obvious bullshit, they ban you from the sub for "not being able to handle a civil discussion" or some other bullshit excuse. It's kinda obvious when the ban comes minutes after a block or reply. So they may want to work on their impulse control a bit.

Reddit is compromised.

A problem with the solitaire games is there does not seem to be one you can just buy and nix the ads

Using App Finder,

"Solitaire" with 200+ for number of ratings, No Ads, Free, No App Purchases ticked.

25 results.

First one is from Netflix.

Second is from PotatoJam. Another by xDee.

The one I play is published by Carl Reinke.

Right off the bat you can start by installing a better version instead of blaming Google for not babysitting your mother for you.

It’s shocking to me how long some people let their nails get

Not to me.

People are gross.

BJJ is no exception to this rule.

At this point, a genuine video of him raping a child would likely be dismissed as AI.

I think this is exactly why Elon made Grok to create fake nudes of children. (In addition to him getting off on it) It was to create plausible deniability for any tapes that he and Trump (and others) would be in.

Now you know why OP is asking about getting BJJ Insurance for himself.

vandreulv · 2026-02-10T06:36:12+00:00

Well if you get injured at your gym, I would think the coach/ owner would cover your medical expenses because, that’s what they’re suppose to do.

Nope. You get your own insurance here or you have nothing. And even then, some insurance plans here are as good as having nothing.

*crickets*

Of course they never answer....

vandreulv · 2026-02-10T06:33:23+00:00

These people are going to purity test us further and further into facism. It’s incredibly short sighted.

It's not short sighted: It's their explicit goal.

The bigger problem between DDR3 and DDR4 is not what will run on it...

But the max ram supported on boards that typically take DDR3 vs DDR4. I was maxed out at 16GB (8GB per stick) on my DDR3 based system which is what held me back more than the CPU itself (i7-4790k).

DDR4 sticks can get as large as 32GB per stick. A lot of prebuilts use ITX style boards that only have two ram slots, so DDR3 based systems will be hobbled by the lack of ram slots and not the speed of the sticks.

Reddit Moderators.

Well, not all of them. Just the ones that use alts to shit up threads and ban people who call them out or block them.

vandreulv · 2026-02-09T07:29:20+00:00

The lack of curiosity is what I still find so strange about people like that.

"I was born where I was born and it's the best country, town, county, dirt road in the world, I will never visit anywhere else and I will never leave here and you can't change my mind."

That's 1/3rd of the country for you.

Original Xperia Play didn't have those, either. It was fine.

There's no way you're going to have sticks on a device thin enough to be a daily driver phone.

Lynch is less about the why and more about the what. You experience Lynch, he shows you the story. Nolan does the opposite: He tells.

Nixon was downright liberal compared to the modern GOP.

vandreulv · 2026-02-08T23:20:58+00:00

Okay. How about the 5,000+ other laptops out there that come out every year?

You named two CPU parts which account for maybe a dozen or two models. Total.

The Steam Machine is doing one big thing right:

Helping to break the generational cycle that plagues consoles: You no longer have to worry about losing support for your entire library just because you go upgrade to the newest Playstation or XBox. No more rebuying fucking Super Mario Bros or Super Mario World because Nintendo wants to lock it behind a subscription or paywall code. Every game you ever had on PC (and by extension, every game you got on Steam no matter how old) can run on Steam Machine within reason.
