This is precisely how I use up and down votes.
I would also, as an example upvote something I think was incorrect if the was an insightful reply to it I felt people should see.
To clarify, I’m not talking about a troll post with a clever “dunk” reply.
Trolls always get downvoted.
The new American way would be to double down on the mistake and deride ptz for not being up to speed on this latest usage of ‘are’…
Huh - that is a pretty big hole.
It kinda blows my mind that Apple are talking about selling rights to shows to Amazon Prime because their service is performing poorly and yet they don’t even have an Android app…
I don’t really know anything about android; does this not work?:

I was surprised to hear recently how poorly AppleTV+ is doing. I suspect it’s a branding issue more than a content issue with people possibly thinking you have to own an Apple device to watch.
For me AppleTV+ has the highest Hit to Miss ratio of all the services. Check out Silo, Slow Horses, and For All Mankind as some of my favorites you didn’t mention.
My reading or the exchange is that Eugen only confirmed they’re working on “updates that would improve onboarding on Mastodon”; not “Starter Packs” specifically.
Trump, as Putin's personal bitch
it's not like Biden wasn't Natanyahu's bitch

It’s the artificial sweetener(s) (Sorbitol and maltitol) that cause some folks tummy troubles.
It all comes down to if it bothers your tummy and if so what your limit is.
Personally I can down a whole tin in 4 hours with no issue.
USB-C is just a connector, but Thunderbolt 5 uses it and for asymmetric uses (e.g. a monitor) it can hit 120Gbps.
Isn’t that going to support most monitors?
I just realized I’m on the test flight beta and I probably should have provided this feedback there 🤦♂️
When creating a comment/reply (such as this comment I’m making in reply to you). When I touch the attach image button nothing happens.
I dunno - I’m pretty sure I’d choose the modern MacBook Pro’s ports over any of these other options.
What are the best iOS apps for viewing the Lemmy ModLog?
The default web interface is awful, at least on mobile.
Hoping to find something decent at searching sorting and filtering.
What is the argument for making poor/working class folks shoulder the burden of taxes?
I’m looking for serious answers to understand the mentality. Please avoid the snark. I know it’s low hanging and tempting but I’m pretty sure most, if not all, of use here on Lemmy “get it”.
I just can’t get out of my head how absurd it is that we, in the U.S. anyway, put so much of the tax burden on working class folks instead of those most benefiting from our economic system.
It seems to me the standard deduction should be at least the median personal income (~$40k) if not the mean(~$60k) with progressive tax brackets adjusted to cover costs thereafter and possibly a supplemental wealth tax.
But I’m not an economist so trying to understand why I’m wildly wrong and this would be a terrible idea either from an economic perspective or from a political perspective.
Is it possible in 2024 to turn off Apple Messages send and receive sounds without muting the whole phone?
I’ve been wishing for this for years, but it seems I’m to only one that finds them annoying. Hoping maybe someone knows a setting somewhere I’ve missed or possibly something introduced in iOS 18.
To be clear, I’m not talking about Messages notifications you get notifying you of a message while you’re not in the app; I’m talking about the send/receive sounds the phone plays while you’re in the Messages app texting with someone.
TYIA! 🙏
🎁 Washington Post Says It Won’t Endorse a Presidential Candidate
Will Lewis, the company’s chief executive, said the paper was “returning to our roots” of not making endorsements for the office.
Unlike some other swing states, it won’t take days to know which presidential candidate won in the Tar Heel state.
Is anyone else having notifications get through their sleep focus since upgrading to iOS 18?
This is driving me nuts. I think it’s “Optimized Battery Charging” notifying me that the battery is fully charged which happens 30-60 minutes before my alarm goes off.
At private fundraiser Walz caught saying the quiet part out loud.
Kamala Harris’s running mate urges popular vote system but campaign says issue is not part of Democrats’ agenda
> “I think all of us know, the electoral college needs to go,” Walz told donors at a gathering at the home of the California governor, Gavin Newsom.
Trump is the political equivalent of those spam/scam emails with intentional misspellings designed to filter out folks who won't ultimately fall for the scam
Read the complaints submitted to the FTC by users of Donald Trump's social media platform.
The lyngest liar of all liars is at it AGaIn!!!

Spruce Pine, NC just got slammed by Helene. It could massively disrupt the tech industry
> Nestled in the Appalachian mountains, the community of Spruce Pine, population 2,194, is known for its hiking, local artists and as America’s sole source of high-purity quartz. Helene dumped more than 2 feet of rain on the town, destroying roads, shops and cutting power and water.

Jackson opens lead over Bishop in race for NC attorney general, WRAL News Poll finds
> Forty-three percent of likely November voters support Jackson and 36% support Bishop, with 21% undecided, according to the poll of 676 likely voters, which was released Tuesday. The gap has widened significantly since March, when a previous WRAL News Poll showed Jackson with a 41%-to-40% lead over Bishop
After my last post I realized I hadn’t seen any polling for the AG race, so I went looking and this is what I found.
This is a couple weeks old so take it with a grain of salt
