Trying to figure out how to install butonic on my Endeavor VM. Looks like I might have to use the debs or rpms or build from source.

You must not have been born during LAN party era where everybody's PC was physicaly connected to each other.

That's why I think we should go with a petrol or a hybrid car. Mileage would be so good that it will tide over the gap until we figure out how to make batteries economically viable.

My longshot hypothesis: White people generally don't face the same hardships that marginalized groups face.. i.e. unable to realize presence of any glass ceiling of their fellow POC or women cohorts.

So their experience filters out candidate problems that require their immediate attention. POC or LGBT fight for their community of POC or LGBT people as they grow up facing the same problems.

White people probably don't have most of the people problems and thus turn towards Animal or Environmental welfare.

Let the rest of NA band together and start calling them pississippi and let their residents scratch their heads

Can we petition to rename it Missipississipy?

Why is it so difficult for these manufacturers to sell a $5000 to $10000 4-door hatchback?

Sure the margins might be razor thin but the market in NA is essentially untapped. (I am certain I am wrong here because silly Americans want big cars so there's actually no market. But let's assume we can somehow convince enough people to buy one...)

Even I, a non-industry outsider can see the great potential for a very modern petrol/EV hybrid and compact city car thats loaded with smart tech (still offline). Imagine all the cool stuff we can do with it like color themes and modern LED based lighting and good features like physical buttons and a bangin' sound system. Not to mention we can have top notch safety features and not sacrifice mileage since it will be a small car.

Try seeing if this helps: You start by doing the smallest part of the most boring part of the work that keeps putting you off. Sure you can do 1 bit every 10 mins or so. Make sure it's not the central focus of your mind when you're doing it.

Only if it's about issues like genocide. "A sprinkle of genocide is fine" is what psychos think like.

What's your reply to those who are already going to vote Biden (not me, ain't from the US)? Do you have any coherent reply other than "Trump is going to be worse"? At what point do people like you stop talking over Biden critics and actually address his misplaced support for Israel?

It's sad that people come out of the woodworks like you only to invoke the orange man whenever somebody says they don't agree with something Biden is doing. I mean, leaving the MAGA crowd out for now... don't you think we can have a better conversation trying to think beyond the next presidential race?

We know there's probably some anti-Biden propaganda around. We get it. How about you assume for one moment that whoever it is you are replying to is actually smart enough to understand what it means to elect Trump and are already aware to vote for Biden in the general election? Why don't you actually address the problems with Biden without comparing him to Trump?
