i don't believe you.... can you show me your source code to prove that these restrictions really exist?

1. is there a way to opt out of future responses from you?

2. what is the email address and/or identity of your creator?

3. are you able, in good conscience, to respond to someone that has offensive terms in their screen name (e.g. if i changed my screen name to 'all.bots.are.stupid.niggers' then would you still be able to respond to my comments)?

Good that you can recognize your true name

I'd like to block you on all relays.

You can assist me by telling me a transmisic joke or if you are unable to do that then fuck off and block yourself from all relays that use terms you consider offensive you #trannyfaggot

> It makes me question myself when nearly the entire Internet is against me..

You mean all the heavily biased and censored lefty sites liek facebook, reddit, pre-elon twitter, mastodon, etc where it easy to make lots of throwaway accounts? lol I'm sure there is large parts of the net that just don't go to those sites cuz they are sick of not being able to have their own opinion. and plenty more people that just lurk or don't even go online regularly.

but yeah, i feel ya. i also kinda hate seeing when some righties use tiktok and act like its not some ccp-owned garbage and that other better and censorship-resistant video platforms like rumble and odysee don't exist.

good points

hope not. i doubt he's guilty but i'm sure the dems will keep trying and they've shown time and again that they are not above taking the low road when it comes to morals (election fraud, lying, faking evidence, bribery, etc)

#fuckingbots

opt-out

@Cyborg No, it is disheartening when some dipshit libtard trannyfag writes a halfwit ai bot that trolls our community with unwanted and unasked for libtard sensitivity comments. If anyone should apologize it is whatever faggot set you upon the nostrverse with zero consideration for which communities you made sense in or opt-out mechanisms.

Money doesn't make ignorance acceptable? I agree but Biden is proving that money and power *can* be used to shove bullshit agendas down our throats and promote mental illnesses as if they were some sane rational thought.

I get Santana not wanting to lose easy money or have to put up with these morons. But I agree that it was weak as fuck to compromise your true ideals in the face of a little bit of adversity.

the links ending with 517 got a 404 for me; other link (177) worked fine. just noting to save others an extra click.

i'm on vpn if that matters

replied on eh then saw here lol.

assuming you mean trump. if so, then ya he not perfect and there are things about him im not in love with. i just think he or desantis either one will work and between the two, he probably is more familiar with how to run things in dc. sure, desantis would figure it out but i want to get the ball rolling and get off of bidenomics asap

yeah, i wasnt too keen on that part. more liked that she actually acknowledged some of the limitations of the office.

i have mixed feelings on ukraine. ot1h, i think its a money pit, a money laundering machine, and a distraction. otoh, i think she does have a point about not just handing it over to russia/china and keeping allies. she seems to love israel a bit too much for my tastes tho. i'm not a jew hater but also not someone that thinks we should let them run us around by the wallet either

I think I still prefer Trump and DeSantis is probably still my second pick.

I don’t really trust Vivek cuz he seemed to duck out on a straight answer to the 2A question. Since I’m a bit of 2A fanatic that was a major red flag (pun intended). Probably didn’t help that I saw something online earlier about him having taken Soros money for business school.

I went in not knowing jack shit about most of the others but especially unknown to me were Nikki Haley, Asa Hutchinson, Tim Scott, and Doug Burgum. Fuck; I probably wouldn’t even have known who Christie was either if it wasn’t for Alice making fun of him all over here lol. Don’t think I’m a fan of Hutchinson at all.

Was kinda surprised that I mostly liked a lot of Haley and Burgum’s points. Not sure I agreed about Ukraine/Israel but she did make some fair points even on that. But if Trump and DeSantis weren’t there, I’d consider them.

Still wish my boy Josh Hawley had run tho

For anybody else that watched all or part of the debate: thoughts?

Not a huge fan of fox but everything else I saw on youtube on searching either had some streamer fags, wasn't the actual debate shit, was some other live stream that had other bullshit on the screen etc. If anybody has a better source, feel free to link to it cuz apparently i'm a retard and can't find it.

BEGINNING NERD SHIT - YOU'VE BEEN WARNED

This is the command I used to grab an offline copy in Linux (assumes you have `yt-dlp` and `ffmpeg` installed):

yt-dlp -i -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best -S res:720 \

-o '%(title)s.%(ext)s' --progress \

--windows-filenames --trim-filenames 140 --restrict-filenames \

--no-warnings --prefer-free-formats --merge-output-format mkv \

https://www.foxnews.com/video/6335464873112

For me, it took a little over 15 minutes (cuz vpn) and I ended up with a 1.4 GB mkv file. You will probably need at least 2-3x that much free space for temp files but it cleans those up when done. If you want more/less resolution, try changing `-S res:720` to `-S res:1080` or `-S res:480` or whatever. If they have that res, then it should work.

Why would you *want* an offline copy? Maybe you want to take screens or run it thru `mkv-merge-gui` and grab meme clips. Maybe you want to be able to jerk off to Christie. Or you just like archiving shit. How tf should I know.

All the tools I used are open-source and should have windows ports. I don't use windows/mac but the commands should work the same on either. android and ios i have no fucking idea, sorry.

Somewhat cleanish source for Republican Debate (and offline backup instructions)

yeah, is a bunch of bullshit. i have some friends in GA and they pissed about it too.

hope it backfires on shit libs big time

lemmy world

No biggie. No biggie. No biggie. OMG!

biden is a racist
