AG Paxton's new rule would be that the entranceway of every polling location in Texas can only be open once every 10 minutes for 30 seconds at a time, to prevent voter fraud of course.

Jokes aside, I actually needed this since I used to run Proton just like WINE but after some version many games didn't work by just changing "wine" to "proton".

Yeah Trump not only tests his supporters' loyalty but also their schedules. There are only a handful of things I would line up for hours in advance, and then still to wait another several hours sounds like an ordeal more than anything.

Senator Foreman is right...
It's not that there is discrimination in Idaho, he and the Republican party are the discrimination in Idaho.

I know that it stopped working for maybe a week or so but I've been using NewPipe fine for a good while since. I'm on 0.27.2. Not saying you have to go back because of it, but it hasn't been permanently broken yet.

Fuckin ell... my district in BC is likely NDP but I will vote no matter what. I am worried about the tossup districts in outlying areas of Metro Vancouver that appear to be a slight shade blue... (Surrey, North Van, Coquitlam). This is still anyone's race.

Look, you will have a sizable contingent of people shelling out an additional $20 to $80 just to play a game a few days early, with little to no other benefits. Their impatience is capitalized on.

What I love about Linux software vulnerability and exploit news articles are these hilarious "evil penguin" illustrations. Windows' bug ones are not nearly as interesting with usually like a skull on a monitor.

The latest: A couple comments about the US VP Debate I had started but decided against. Often times I realize that I'm angry and upset at something I read, but I should step back and breathe before posting a rant and opt instead for something more level-headed.
In the past year: Some replies that I write sound like just backtalk so I don't post those when they don't meaningfully advance the discussion. Some discussion topics like about autism, LBGTQ, gender equality, wars, religion, and race issues I want to reply to, to help spur and advance awareness and discussion, but sometimes I feel it's not my place. I want to leave it for people with more direct experience to provide better answers. Oh and one other reason: sometimes I start writing but delete too topic- or location-specific answers that could doxx myself. I don't mind people knowing what city I live in or have been in but any more granular than that you will have to know me better personally.

Only time I win a Q fight with Abrams is if I remember to press F, and follow it up with way too many Qs or 3/4 of my kit. If I still fail this guy goes from 1HP to 60% like some EV quickcharger.

Threats of violence are inappropriate, but you can't force anyone to like you enough to help you start your club.
Not sure why any professor at FAMU would wish to align themselves with today's Republican parties of Florida and US. Rejecting affiliation with the likes of Governor Ron DiSaster is free speech.
I wish Ms. Lane well, I'm sure that she'll have a great career ahead of her as a token black woman at Fox News.

There were many years in the Trump Presidency I was looking for smoking guns... there are more smoking guns presented in this filing than all Clint Eastwood movies combined.
Just put it on the side streets - Doug Ford's gaslighting compromise might work in some cities like Montreal and Vancouver but aren't well suited for Toronto and its suburbs.
People think vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is nice. But is he... too nice? From his dangerously folksy upbringing, to the National Guard, to teaching America's future enemies in China, Tim Walz's "nice" act isn't fooling anyone. This is the Dailyshowography of Tim Walz.
Mmmm. Roasted ham.

Hey everyone, just a reminder in case you hadn't seen it or forgot from months ago, the Canadian official e-petition is at this link as part of the Stopkillinggames.com campaign. Maybe we can get some clarity from our government on what our rights as consumers are when buying access to video games. Signature collection ends at 9:30am ET/6:30am PT on Thursday 5 Sept 2024.

I figured that right to repair is a topic many of us are interested in. The survey below by ISED Canada, a department of the Government of Canada, is open until September 26, 2024. >Canadians can provide their input at the following link: https://ised-isde.survey-sondage.ca/f/s/RTR
Some Lemmy user at one point had asked about a "multi-paste" feature, if there was a way to use keyboard shortcuts to display multiple clipboard items and copy/paste them out at will (this user mentioned similar to RTS games they like to play). ~~If someone can find that post, can you notify them and direct them here, please? I'm having trouble locating it but I recollect that it was within the last 3 months.~~ Edit: [I found the post!](https://lemmy.ml/post/18969027) Somehow this was stuck in my mind when I accidentally pressed a keyboard shortcut, that showed my last 5 copied items. This isn't exactly what the user was looking for but I thought I'd publicize it here. If you use Fcitx (because you need multi-language input) from the fcitx5 packages, then you may already have installed the clipboard add-on. You can use fcitx with just one keyboard layout. By default, it's activated by Ctrl+semicolon and shows the 5 last entries, but the number can be configured.
I wanted to get the Lemmy community's opinions on this, [because I made a comment 2 months ago,](https://lemmy.ca/comment/10054149) wishing for someone with these qualities to replace Joe Biden who at the time wasn't considering dropping out. I will be holding myself accountable to my pledges. Thanks to everyone who answered on !politics@lemmy.world, but only links are allowed so it was removed. I did follow through with my [donation to charity](https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/84c38c12-f9cc-4302-87a0-1038e84536fa.jpeg) regardless.

The edition is called: "Take The A Train 9 Version 5.0 Final Edition Complete Pack DX+"  [Train Construction Pack Steam Page](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2447420/A9/) Unfortunately, the ridiculously titled combo pack's Steam page appears to be region locked to Japan, the DVD version is also Japan/Japanese only.
The motion was shared here earlier: https://lemmy.ca/post/25243197 There were 35 speakers in support, 1 speaker in opposition. The amendment and motion were supported unanimously by councillors. There were hundreds of comments received, largely in support. The 49th Avenue, 41st Avenue, 4th Avenue, Granville Street, and Hastings Street corridors were talked about most. The amendment added Granville Street to the list of corridors of focus, and inclusion of TransLink's report for city staff reference. Another important point was the request for automated buslane enforcement.
Chapter 19 of the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 edition of Mandate for Leadership [(Direct PDF link)](https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf) is full of policies that would be terrible for the US. Highlights: * Replace national transportation infrastructure projects with a flat transportation subsidy formula to each state (most of whose DoTs don't know how to do anything with money other than build highways) * Stop funding mass transit, give public funds to Rideshare companies like Uber/lyft instead. * Preserve single family home zoning at all costs. Each state and city knows what is best for their people, better than the federal government, except when states and cities do something that conservatives don't like. * Screw California in particular. * Trying to reduce the number of traffic fatalities is bad if anyone dare suggests that we have to drive a little bit slower.
