Well, this article is silly clickbait.
The reality is that Harris currently has 57% odds to win vs. Trump’s 42%. It’s a weighted coin flip, but still a coin flip nonetheless. Trump winning would not be a huge upset or invalidate polling methodology.

Luckily between Amazon and ESPN+ I can meet most of my sportsball needs. For those not on the apps, there are websites that can assist.
I used to be into that, but Kodi started to become a pain after all the streamer quality got low, I had to pay for RealDebrid just to get a decent stream, I never quite got sports streaming to work with any of the apps, and the Firestick itself got ungodly slow over time.
I have PCs hooked up to all my TVs, so if I can’t find something on my streamers I can just open up my browser and google a solution.
Dude I use Lemmy to not see ads, why are you posting this?
Gattaca was taking a lot of license for the sake of the movie. A lot of diseases are multifactorial and while genes might play a role, they’re not the only factor and often not even the main factor. The movie ignored things like epigenetics, early life exposures, lifestyle, age, sex, and just plain variance that are all factors that can play into chronic diseases.
That being said, allowing parents to make decisions based on genetic testing isn’t itself eugenics. Eugenics is a top-level idea revolving around the idea of improving the quality of human genetics as a whole. And that requires an institutional judgement of what are good quality genes and bad quality genes, which necessitates us saying some people are better quality than others and opens up the door to racism/homophobia/transphobia/ableism/etc. Eugenics is always bad, while personal medical decisions based on genetics can be reasonable.
They’re not leaving, they’re just checking out the wet paint exhibit next door. They’ll be right back as soon as it dries!
Old Fashioned. It’s one with a huge variation in flavor from bar to bar, so it’s always interesting to see how they do it.
It’s because modern conservatives are less concerned about facts.
Republicans claim climate change is a hoax; the reality is that climate change is already causing measurable damage around the planet.
Republicans claim Haitian immigrants are eating dogs and cats; the reality is they aren’t.
Republicans claim Democrats want to abort newborn infants. The reality is this is illegal everywhere.
Republicans claim illegal immigration and crime area crisis. Reality is the numbers are actually trending down.
Republicans claim supply side economics worse. Reality is that supply side economics does not work and Democratic presidents perform better on every economic measure.
Republicans have recently claimed that schools are doing trans surgeries on kids without their parents’ permission and immigrants have a direct phone line to Kamala Harris in exchange for illegal votes. Reality is that those are too stupid to garner a serious response.
So yeah, reality happens to have a liberal bias when conservatives are trying to out-stupid each other.
The 65-year-old shook, pulled against restraints and gasped for breath for several minutes before dying, journalists who witnessed the execution said.
More barbaric torture. The death penalty is an embarrassment and should be outlawed.
Yeah, in 2016 and 2020 polls underestimated Trump voters. Pollsters know he has voters who aren’t reflected in polls, and they’re consciously trying to account for it.
But I’m hopeful that this year it’s the opposite, that polls are underestimating Harris support. Young voters, or even women in conservative families who say they’re voting for Trump, but deep down want Harris to win.
Scroll down to “The Encased Mosquito.” Hammond wasn’t even in the scene.
Contained? Sure. Letting them run wild in areas where they’re not native makes them have the same effect as an invasive species.
It’s not ethical to let your cats outside at all.
Hammond didn’t pick him, the insurance company did. The company insisted on only him, likely because he was a notorious skeptic who would be able to look past the sensationalism of the dinosaurs to let them know a realistic risk assessment. The dinner scene where he and Ellie criticize Hammond is exactly why they wanted him there.
Point being, no indication is actually given that he was smarter or more published than the others in his field, because that isn’t really what the insurance was after.
Vanilla Ubuntu vs. Windows 10? I’ll take Windows.
If it’s like Kubuntu or Xubuntu vs. Windows 11, then I’ll take Ubuntu, but currently my jam is Debian with XFCE.
What nonsense. Debate questions aren’t exactly rocket science.
I predict at the VP debate:
There, just fed both candidates 90% of the debate questions.
But she wouldn’t have?
Before Netflix I wasn’t buying hundreds of DVDs per year. It doesn’t make sense to claim that use of a service, even a free one, constitutes “savings” based on hypothetical behavior where you would have bought all the content individually at list price.
What do you mean?
Impeachment is just a natural thing that happens to every politician, usually about twice a term. Just ask Trump.
