This is true. There are two kinds of people who would vote orange. There are those too dumb to understand that he’d make himself dictator, and consequently too dumb to use the Fediverse. Then, there are those smart enough to understand those things and evil enough to want a dictatorship, and they’re mostly on those tankie/fascist instances everyone else defederated. Neither of those groups will ever see this thread.
The fascists want to convince you that your vote doesn’t matter. Defy the fascists and vote. Besides, the state and local races make more of a difference anyway, so at least show up for those.
Entertainment-per-byte is an interesting problem. My solutions were tiny but highly replayable games. It’s been fun to see other people’s ideas, like writing things in Emacs.
Alright then, how about this?
For just 32kB (plus the size of a Game Boy emulator), you can play the amazing Tetris Rosy Retrospection. It’s a romhack of the Game Boy Tetris that adds modern Tetris controls, handling, and features to make it feel much better to play without increasing the file size. I’m aware of the color version of this hack, but it doubles the file size to 64kB, so I’m only considering the regular Tetris Rosy Retrospection this time. Byte-for-byte, I can’t find a better game to sink dozens of hours into.
Weighing in at 4.0MB, I present to you the SNES roguelike Mystery Dungeon 2: Shiren the Wanderer (or Fushigi no Dungeon 2: Fuurai no Shiren).
The original console “RPG you can play 1000 times”. It’s tough but fair. It stops just short of permadeath; dying sends you back to the start at level 1 with nothing, but you keep your side quest progress and any gear you had the foresight to send back to town before you died. Watch someone stream this sometime. It’s turn-based, but the tension is like nothing else I’ve ever played.
August 7 is the deadline. The problem is my state, Ohio. By law, the Democrats must nominate someone in 17 days or be left off the ballot. It’s way too fast for a special primary election.
This is certainly going to face legal challenges in red states, too. The orange one will probably run unopposed in states like Florida.

Ooh, nice! I haven’t heard of Ventoy before. I’m gonna have to try carrying Hiren’s BootCD PE, Linux Mint, and Batocera all bootable on the same flash drive in my pocket.
I’m a fella of Mbin but I’ve still got my bag of tricks with me:
Are you kidding ??? What the **** are you talking about-- ah, forget it. I’m lucky to keep my elo higher than my @FloatingIsFun@fedia.io post count.
I dunno, Nc6, then Qa5+, then Nb4? They’ll probably take our knight but it stops their attack.
Then I guess we push king and try to check their king with our king.
Chocolatey, a command line driven package installer for Windows that works like apt-get for Linux. Replaces thousands of bloated installers with simple commands. My first step with an updated Windows install is to install Chocolatey, open command prompt, and do something like choco install firefox notepadplusplus gimp zoom windirstat winrar
to install them all silently.
Of course you have to follow it with The Odyssey by Symphony X, a 24-minute symphonic metal track.

Yay ♥ Thanks for the shout out, you two! @FloatingIsFun will gladly accept this as #airswimming . It’s cute!
It’s true, though. Lemmy.ml doesn’t federate with Fedia.io. Actually, I wonder if it’s because of that two hour timestamp bug that got fixed earlier this week. Everything I posted used to stick around at the top of all the “new” sorts for a couple hours.
I’m trying! :P
I originally chose Kbin/Mbin over Lemmy because of the added support for Mastodon-like posts, but it’s still suffers from wonky early adopter stuff. I still rather like Mbin’s interface more than Lemmy’s defaults, though Lemmy’s support for third party front ends is very cool. Whichever way you go, I’m happy that Mbin and Lemmy have access to all the same content. Mbin could grow more if some of a magazine’s custom CSS could federate to other instances, or if it supported bots like Lemmy.
Oh dang, I’m gonna have to look into PieFed, though. That looks good! I’d like to see how my community looks, but I think a registered piefed.social user has to do this community lookup for federation to begin.
