This post was just a couple below for me, ironic: https://lemmy.ca/post/53325803

This is the point that I think a lot of people miss. Yes, people will still have unlawful access to guns, specifically those who don’t care about laws in the first place. But I would just about bet my house that since guns in general are so much harder to get there, that it’s also harder for said criminal (or aspiring criminal) to obtain one.

Plus it’s barely the criminals doing mass shootings (speaking as an American), it’s usually some depressed white dude who just happens to have access to a firearm that they’re not qualified to operate. The gangs and criminals that have weapons generally speaking, only use them on each other (accidents and exceptions obviously occur).

The question is how does America, in its current firearm saturation, hit the same goal. I think it would take a generation for all the guns from legal owners to be turned in or recycled, because most don’t want to give them up. If the government immediately required special permits and only allowed for specific uses and types of arms, there would likely be a legitimate organized revolt from gun nuts.

I’ll try it out, don’t like the icon as much haha.

That’s sad. I’ll keep using it until it stops functioning. Don’t like my cheese moving unless it has to

I just uninstalled Reddit and installed Sync for Lemmy. I’ll still end up on reddit occasionally from a Google search result or something, but I don’t go there intentionally.

I will ALWAYS suggest amplitude (sequel to frequency on PS1). Best rhythm music game ever.

Portal revolution, and portal reloaded

I believe revolution is the one valve approved as canon, but you’ll have to check that if you care.

Reloaded has the time travel, and multiplayer.

If you check steam, there’s 2 or 3 portal games outside the legit 2 that are super fun. One valve even approved as canon IIRC. One of them you go back and forth in time with a third portal type. One of them is even multiplayer.

The good “creators” to follow for news generally provide a summary in Tiktok, then if you want to verify or learn more they have additional information and sources in their other locations (substack is a big one)

I can generally tell if it’s AI generated, and if I have any suspicion then I try to find other reports and real sources via Google searches and whatnot. Like I didn’t believe the gold trump statue, or the trump and Epstein statue were real.

There’s a great deal of real news that goes through the app. It’s the majority of the content I see.

Spoilers!

Does that mean straight? Like, 1x gay, same gender attraction, 2x gay, “opposite” attraction again?

Yeah, I only landed there because there was a Google result for this same post there, don’t know if the dev has a sub in lemmy

I do believe that is a launcher functionality. octopi launcher has a subreddit and you can suggest features and stuff there.

Yeah, it’s a feature request I’m sure he’ll get to eventually. You can also control the number of rows by changing the icon size, it leaves a bit of whitespace, but it’s manageable.

I moved over to octopi launcher. It’s really good, and single dev like how nova started.

That would be nice. Hugely impractical. Especially with today’s government. Pretty sure no fault divorce is going to be revoked soon, so it’ll only get worse.

Also, was not suggesting that abusive relationships would be enough to swing the election one way or the other, only that this is a valid concern that needs addressed before any sweeping change.

Not at all saying we shouldn’t look into the abuse, but unless the victim tells someone, there’s no way to know it’s happening? I don’t really get what you’re suggesting here.

Often times the people this would hurt most would be the spouses of abusive individuals. They could force the receipt, and would be able to confirm their victim voted the way they were told.
