I don't get why this is downvoted? A grassroots new political party can't go from 0 to Congress/Whitehouse in any reasonable time. A coup is a worse idea that if failed would crush the entire movement. A revolution means the most powerful military by far to ever exist, and the worlds reserve currency has uncertain control and would destabilize the world.

I think I'll take pushing the DNC to get us where we need to be, thank you very much.

This might work in some US states, key changes in a few large states would make a massive difference. Any lawyers among us?

Whenever I update the kernel or low level libraries practically everything uses like glibc.

Villagers are human like mobs you trade with. Emeralds are used as a currency. Most fletchers buy sticks from you. The more you do business with a villager, the more trade options they have. High level fisherman buy a boat (5 wooden planks) for one emeralds.

Tool smiths start selling high quality enchanted iron and diamond tools once they are mid level. Enchantments do things like increase durability (unbreaking), improve speed (efficiency), and many other upgrades. Once you have a tool smith that sells say diamond axes, anything else is pointless to keep beyond an emergency backup. Cost isn't a factor because the aforementioned selling of sticks and boats mean emeralds are a cheap and renewable resource.

Just call it a stadium. The names will vary with being called a field, park, or stadium, but if you say stadium everyone will know what you mean.

E.g. Turn left by (the stadium/Wrigley Field/Fenway Park/Dodger Stadium)

ETA: Field is generally used for small ones, like you would see in a public park. So if you go to city park to play football/soccer/baseball/whatever, you would call it the $SPORT field if it is on grass. If it is on a hard surface like basketball or tennis, you would say court. Stadium is for large structures with several thousand+ of spectators, and again the proper names are inconsistent, but stadium as a general term works.

Hopefully this helps. American English is all sorts of ambiguous and inconsistent. One positive is it is nice not having gendered nouns and it is forgiving enough that even with grammar errors, a native speaker will know what you mean, like the plural of cow is sometimes cattle when you used as an adjective "cattle farm". Nobody would be confused if you said "cows farm", but along with the inevitable accent, it would be a tell that you aren't a native speaker

Even if you are completely right about everything being as simple as you say, nobody wakes up and says "gee, I'm going to be stupid/self-destructive/neurodivergent today and cause myself a lot of pain."

The answer is to use it as a case study to improve the design or perhaps provide a leaflet, QR code to a PDF, or a laminated card to assist renters with controls that are safety critical or unique to the vehicle

I love the driving off the cliff comparison! My goal is to try to crash into the side of the mountain at a survivable speed.

I'm optimistic because I have to be. I'm a parent, so I feel it is my responsibility to do what I can so that my kids can have a future. They were born pre-trump. In today's environment, I would probably be child free.

Here is some good news. Chick-fil-A. Chicken production emits about 1/3 of the GHG than beef. I am well aware of their politics. They could have those politics AND serve mostly beef.

Again, it doesn't all have to be at the federal level. State and local governments can take action that would be impactful.

What these numbers mean are some of the GOP is going to have to flip or they will lose in the primaries.

What is the alternative other than complain about the state of politics?

The way I see it, we should take the wins that we get, and celebrate them loudly in the hopes that it will drive more wins.

From the article:

"While 66–80% Americans support these policies, Americans estimate the prevalence to only be between 37–43% on average."

I'd say 2/3 is more than enough. It doesn't all have to be at the national level. City govs could rezone to reduce car usage. State govs could give tax breaks for employees that telework.

Get a tool smith and buy tools. Emeralds are super easy to get in bulk with master fisherman and fletchers. Selling sweet berries to butchers is another great source.

Go set theory!

Religion is a subset of the set of belief systems.

Elon Musk is a member of the set of billionaires. We could define a set with one member, Elon Musk. It would be a subset of billionaires.

This comment needs more attention. Sometimes I wash Lemmy had awards like Reddit to make important things visible.

Never would be allowing someone to scream racial slurs and ignoring it. Rarely and sometimes should be replaced with "it depends". Always probably means the same thing as sometimes since you aren't going to shout down a good speaker that you agree with. The whole survey doesn't make sense when you stop to think about it.
