They definitely aren't. They just passed an anti-lgbt bill and the next day a well known trans woman was stabbed to death.

I didn't read through your whole comment to be clear, but your first sentence clearly points out that you either didn't read or understand that I specifically said "That doesn't include other costs from driving obviously in which it would be overall cheaper to take public transit..." And then I equate the lost time due to not having the best public transportation as being part of the issue.

I don't care what the value of my car is. I'm not holding it as an asset like an investment. It is a tool to get me back and forth to where I need to go because public transportation is not the most effective means of travel where I live.

I need to walk excessively far to get to a bus stop, having to haul around a child while doing so makes it that much more complicated.

That being said, there are times where say, I would like to go to an event in the inner city. I will drive to a park and ride and take the train, but the nearest park and ride to the trains are a 20 minute drive away.

So while you are talking about costs and valuation etc. I have already adjusted for that but didn't go into the specific details because the lack of a good transportation system is the biggest reason that I don't use it as much as I would like.

Yes, overall it is cheaper, but due to factors outside of my control (aside from voting and trying to be more involved when I can with public relations in regards to transportation) it is still more feasible for me to use personal transportation rather than public.

A second example is this, it takes me well over an hour on public transit to take my kid to one of their weekly meetings. It takes me 10 minutes to drive there with moderate traffic.

Trust me when I say that I would absolutely love to not need to drive a vehicle however it is simply unfeasible with my current responsibilities.

Edit just for clarity: Trying not to give too much personal info but I also have to move between various work sites throughout the day for which there are no public transportation options. So it basically negates anything I've said in terms of cost for fuel, maintenance etc. but it does leave me with no choice but to drive.

I wonder where the results of this research come from.

Even with a size of 10,000+ people, I would definitely like to see the information on where they live, because that is a massive factor.

I live in a place with ok (not great but not horrible) public transportation. Problem is, it's way cheaper for me to drive to work than to take public transportation.

It costs me 4$ a week in fuel to drive to work. A monthly transit pass is more than 100$. Even with an honored citizen pass which is just under 30$, it's still cheaper for me to drive to work.

This doesn't include other costs from driving obviously in which it would be overall cheaper to take public transit, however it's overly time consuming just to get to a local store and back home due to a lack of better transit. It would take me almost an hour one way just to go 3 miles to the local grocery store.

I'm not saying cars are better by any means, but the necessity is very much dependent on where people live, so the data could be skewed simply by that factor alone.

I lived in mainland Japan for a while, the public transit system is amazing. What also helps is that there are smaller local places where you can simply walk to in order to get groceries or other necessities.

I wish the US wasn't stuck in this capitalistic nightmare and just started heavily investing in public transit. Then, in places where transit is fully functional (and reasonable), start pushing an occasional non driving day, with free or reduced fare transit. Anything to slowly integrate public transit systems into people's daily lives so it isn't seen as some lower tier form of transport or a hunge inconvenience.

Kroger Posts Massive Profits Amid Price Gouging Outcry and Merger Push in c/progressivepolitics@lemmy.world
[–] skizzles@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 month ago

Either that or enforce an equal share rule/law.

All profit recorded by the end of the year must be equally split amongst all employees next year pay increase. No bonuses to any employees regardless of their standing in the company. No stocks, no cutting corners to make it look like there was only losses. No fire/re-hire at a different level, not transfers into a higher paying "position" or any other fucky business.

If you make a billion in profit, that profit should be used for two purposes, keep the business afloat and provide everyone with an equal share. Like straight up equal. For example, company has 500 employees, makes 500k for the year, needs 250k for standard business expenses, the other 250k gets allocated to the 500 employees salaries.

It doesn't seem like a lot but if everyone is at the same level in terms of salary it changes things A LOT.

That being said it's not perfect, there will always be someone trying to exploit every loophole. To make more than someone else.

But I feel like that takes the "investment" (the market) part of things and basically destroys it. Lets get rid of investors for companies that provide basic goods/services. While allowing for the profit to benefit the employees.

I have one of these and a dumper.

I took all of the games we have and dumped them onto an SD card. I use it for the second switch we have that our kid uses.

No messing about with swapping cartridges and taking a chance on losing one, which has already happened once.

I ended up with a V2 which is even better. No wear and tear from popping the cartridge in and out and all the games on it.

Aside from the "inconvenience" of having to push the button to roll through the games, it was worth it.

.ml here, I hope he goes to prison for a very long time.

Granted I knew nothing of the differences between .ml, hexbear, etc at the time I joined, and still kinda don't. To be fair I question what the hell im doing half the time anyway lmao.

Maybe someone that is a little more involved in the different servers could shine some light? Cause man I get frustrated seeing some of the stuff I do, even when I try to tailor my feed to certain subs it still bleeds through lol.

As much as I don't want to agree, I partially do agree with your first statement and hope (regardless of how little faith I have in the justice system) that they are intentionally doing this so they can let the can of worms open if he loses and then take every single person they can down with him when they try to derail the results and attempt a 2nd coup.

It would be the icing on the cake, like you lost and you made a second attempt at it, there's no fucking back tracking and now we have even more people that came out of the woods to help you and we are going to take you all down.

They could put him in jail now, but corruption is rampant, but maybe (sliver of hope) there is some quiet digging of graves for these people to fall into.

It's not, but you only pointed out xenophobia as the cause.

I'm opening the door a little and pointing out that it's much bigger than just xenophobia that's all.

Having lived there for almost 10 years, most of it as a "local", they also have a very real problem of foreigners coming there and destroying apartments or racking up debt and just leaving.

There's more going on obviously, like the xenophobia you mention, and just straight up racism, and probably other things. So it's a little more than just a cultural problem but that is a decent chunk of it.

Has anyone gotten 7th Heaven to work with Linux?

I know there are instructions for the Steam Deck floating around so I'm hoping someone here might be able to point me in the direction of some instructions for Linux.

I couldn't find anything relevant from a few searches but I did get Memoria and Moguri working pretty easily for FFIX by just running the exe using protontricks-launch, tried that with the 7th Heaven installer and it crashes out with the following error and output from the terminal.

Internal error: Failed to expand shell folder constant "userpf"

Assetto Corsa Content Manager Question (lemmy.ml)
 

Having some trouble getting the drop down list to show any details.

As you can see in the screenshot it's just blank. Outside of that, everything Assetto Corsa works great.

I have tried following the method at the following link however it doesn't work at all for me. I can make it through the process up to the point where you should be able to launch CM but it just fails to launch.

https://gist.github.com/ANBAL534/4f1693536f17b75ebcc8016e0d4cc071#gistcomment-3872704

If I install AC fresh, using experimental or GE-Proton9-7 it will launch CM, but none of the drop down menus work, they just appear like in the screenshot.

I'm assuming that this may be related to some kind of .net issue but before I go digging around trying to manually change stuff, I figured I'd check if any one else has seen this issue.

KDE Plasma 6.1 Keyboard LED Question (lemmy.ml)
 

I see lots of posts about KDE being able to sync the screen with LED backlit keyboards but other than saying that, no information on how to do it or what keyboards are compatible.

I could be totally missing something, I tried to parse through the changelog but didn't see anything in there about it.

Would anyone be able to explain how I should check if my keyboard (Akko 5108) is compatible and how I can change the settings if possible?

Ender 3 Max Neo Upgrades (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm looking to upgrade my Ender 3 Max Neo.

It has Marlin 2.0.8.3-HW-V4.2.2-SW-V1.4.7G firmware which I am unable to flash over to other versions of Marlin for some reason, it just crashes.

My board is a 4.2.2. Obviously as indicated by the note above.

I don't mind changing the board out but I'm having a hard time finding any information on the 3 Max Neo and would rather not buy parts just to end up finding out that it's not going to work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
