Youth vote turnout is always low, and it still net favored Kamala. Conversely Gen X vote participation was significantly higher, as expected from an older generation, and it was significantly more favorable to Trump.
I’m not saying Gen Z’s right wing shift isn’t concerning, but it’s more a future problem. The 2024 election result is owned primarily by Gen X and Boomers (and Gen X more than Boomers, statistically).
Gen X*
Those are all Gen Xers, and the Gen X vote was 100x more influential for Trump in 2024 than Gen Z. I doubt much of Gen Z can name a single Snoop Dogg song, or knows who Vanilla Ice is at all.
For me the main benefit of eSIMs is they allow multiple numbers on a single phone which is super handy.
Reading the article though, and I think the described problem is entirely the fault of the carrier and not the design of eSIMs. The carrier should have allowed alternative verification methods (email, online account, in-person at store) other than just sending a text to the disabled number.
Somewhat topically, Terraforming Mars clears
Unfortunately the “both sides” narrative comes from both the right and far left (see: lemmygrad).
call someone deliberately hostile
in the very next sentence call them an idiot, making you the first person in the chain to throw out personal insults
lmao
i’m sorry your fantasy political system where everyone magically works together has zero real world examples of success.
also calling someone out for “learning disabilities” is certainly a choice, maybe if you actually had the courage to back your ideology you could move somewhere that you can use the real word you want to.
lol i can tell you’re not a very successful person in real life due to a combination of arrogance and ignorance, and that bitterness has led you to a very incoherent political ideology. my condolences amigo
Iceland
Bonus: Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Australia, The Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Finland, Canada, New Zealand…
pick one successful example. it should be easy since there are so many
Lol you still haven’t answered a single question. You know you’re wrong but at least you’ve found your safe space to do so.
Wow a government that lasted less than three years, and existed entirely in parallel with a massively violent war that had engulfed the entire country. Stunning example of a successful state.
Lmao that literally doesn’t make any sense and the fact that you can’t provide a single example of it in the real world should illustrate that fact.
noun: anarchy
You can’t “no true Scotsman” an argument by just saying that two textbook-definition examples don’t apply while giving no counter examples or elaboration why.
I don’t respect any anarchist who hasn’t moved somewhere like Somalia or Western Sahara, i.e. places with no functioning government and which are quite literally in anarchy. They’re all just cosplayers who hide behind a combination of privilege and ignorance.
bro what tf is “pro incarceration”. should murderers just be left alone?
Bro you’re getting downvoted but you’re 100% correct. People love to shit on Democrats here while hand-waving Republican faults as “they’re both the same party”. Super convenient for the party in power to not be held accountable.
Except HON was free for over a year, during which time users had full access to the game. The $30 fee was for access to the game after its “official” release in early 2010, but by that point LOL was already the dominant MOBA.
There’s also no pay to win. You pay for more options sooner
That’s… literally pay to win? Paying real money to skip a grind is the definition of pay to win.
until you rank in the top 1% of players, any character will have an equal chance of winning.
I don’t have to be a LOL pro to know that not every champion is balanced equally. And even if the game was perfectly balanced, every individual player’s playstyle will be more suited to certain characters than others.
There’s a certain irony to your earlier statement about players not wanting to pay for a game “they don’t know they’ll enjoy”, and then in the very next paragraph advocate for a format where players have to either grind countless hours in game or pay real money for each new champion.
HON mentioned o7
Great game at its peak, and had a much more unique art style than LOL’s generic knights and hot girls.
Unfortunate it lost out to LOL because LOL went with the freemium model where you could play for free, but had to buy champions. HON was a one-time $30 payment and you get all current and future heroes forever.
Of course gamers would choose the instant gratification option of “free” immediately despite it being literally pay-to-win, instead of the cheaper longterm value option where everyone starts on the same level.
If someone steals a physical land deed, there are relatively simple-to-understand methods of recourse for the original owner which will fix the issue.
If someone steals your NFT, then there’s virtually no chance of just identifying the culprit. And even if you could somehow find them, if they don’t live in the same jurisdiction as you then you’re still never getting it back.
Also you can’t right-click copy and paste land.
