    Yay, Biden isn’t at risk of losing your vote. Unfortunately, this isn’t at all remarkable. He is, however, at risk of losing independents who are/were leaning towards him.

    This isn’t a big deal in places like Indiana or Maryland, but it’s a huge fucking deal in the handful of battleground states where the undecided voters will decide it for all of us.

    The Vote Blue No Matter Who strategy is literally the dumbest shit and a losing one. It only targets people who are considering a protest vote, and not people who are genuinely trying to figure out who to vote for. It assumes that everyone sees the situation as clearly as you do, and that the only thing preventing a victory is if enough people don’t “fall in line”.

    I will always maintain that blaming the electorate in an election for getting a bad result is like saying that the fans lost the ball game.


  • What is more expensive for your organization: time or money? In general, your options that cost less take more time to setup, and vice versa.

    It seems like cheap is more important, so I would roughly do:

    • SSG like Hugo or MkDocs
    • store the content in S3
    • serve with a CDN like Fastly or CloudFront
    • authentication via VCL or a Lambda using OAuth

    This is my story, too. I’ll have a few if I go out to a bar, but I’m done doing that shit all the time; having to go outside when I’m home, in my car, sneaking out at family gatherings, etc.

    However, if I were to return to hanging out at bars a lot, I would absolutely become a full time smoker again.

    I have Arch on a 2013 mbp and it has served very well for years. I think I had to do a little work getting the backlight controls bound to some hotkey combos, but that might depend more on DE than distro. I’m probably going to put NixOS on it, since I’m not using it as my work laptop anymore. Use whatever you want! Debian is always a pleasure, too, in my experience.
