As they say: Some people want to watch the world burn... Other people want to carry the torches.

I salute your bravery.

The chemistry is substantially different, so we'll probably have to wait until scientists run some tests to get a more precise set of parameters that affect degradation. I expect failure modes like dendrites are basically impossible with solid-state, but electrode cracking is still possible. There might even be new and exciting ways they can degrade! Regardless, this is still great news.

This seems like misinformation... The House is in recess until September.

Maybe it might override the name in people's minds, thereby stealing attention away from that other guy.

It's a bit of a paradox, because public unrest is a feature of democracy, not a bug. What autocrats fail to recognize is that the appearance of a peaceful society without conflict is not the same thing as a peaceful society without conflict. Public protest and unrest is a symptom, your society telling you something is wrong, not the thing that's wrong.

That's how cults do their work. They convince people that what they're doing is perfectly normal and okay. Stop the negative thoughts. Don't question your leader. Your leader would never lie to you. Other people want to poison your mind. You're the normal one, everybody else is crazy. Don't leave or bad things will happen...

It's sorta like how "Christmas season" feels earlier and earlier every year... I'm a Grinch until Thanksgiving, and a patriotic non-partisan until Independence Day, thank you very much.

Yes.

Like, I know the "no ragerts" thing is funny and all ... but this is legit a great take. I wish more people took this approach. Take the small failures in stride.

Not to attribute too much credence to the phrase, but I think it's worth considering "there's no such thing as bad publicity." Maybe the free publicity isn't so bad for Biden, no matter the light, because it's time not spent broadcasting his opponent's name into people's ears.

There's a "block user" feature in Lemmy. It's useful in situations like these. Some people never learn the limits of vulgarity.

Pretty sure they're either a troll or wildly ignorant. Either way, it's probably safe to just ignore them.
