I think that there's not just one reason we can list as why she lost. It's complicated. The young white male demographic specifically, voted primarily Republican - which makes sense given that they're being marketed to by republicans (think people like Joe Rogan, Andrew Tate, people like that). I almost didn't vote for her over Gaza - and I'm sure a lot of people didn't vote over Gaza. In regards to "All Lives Matter", I don't think so. I never got the impression that that "movement" was really about saying "Not just black people matter!", it was about being an opposing statement to the BLM movement. The words "Black Lives Matter" do not say that other people don't matter - and the movement is about police violence against black people. "All Lives Matter" was made to deny the recognition that this racial violence happens. I've seen it used a lot to defend police (and let's be honest it has ties to the whole "Blue Lives Matter" thing).

You should look into the history of WHY Hamas formed in the first place. Palestinians have been forcibly relocated and had their land taken since the 40's. I will say, is there any justification for the destruction and genocide Israel is committing? They've destroyed practically ALL infrastructure in Gaza including hospitals, they've got snipers shooting kids, targeting UN aid workers. Hamas and hostages are convenient excuses for them to keep doing what they started in the 40's - killing an entire native population and taking their land.

Why? Nice planet we've got here, we could focus on preventing it becoming inhabitable due to climate change instead.

The NVIDIA drivers are a constant source of problems compared to AMD. I've had updates completely break some games, so that if I want to play my whole library of games I have to alternate between driver versions.

I am one broken leg away from being homeless and losing everything, and it's been like that my entire working life. I've never been able to make enough to actually save. Currently I have -100 in the bank and some debt I'm trying to pay off on top of that. My rent is literally half my income.

I will never stop recommending Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Madoka Magika.

I think you'll miss out on a lot of great games thinking that way! Sometimes needing to commit time into a game is where a lot of the value comes from in its experience, and persona is one of those series.

Which is really less because of the consoles themselves and more because of the priorities of AAA game studios

Perhaps, we should be more concerned with maintaining and keeping relevant current hardware, over constant production of more powerful hardware just for the sake of doing it. We've hit a point of diminishing returns in terms of the value we're actually being given by each new generation. Even the PS4 and Xbox One were able to produce gorgeous graphics.

Because our government's support of Israel furthers US financial interests in the Middle East.

Probably depends on the delivery service partner. They have slightly different hours from company to company.

I drive an EV for work, any my biggest gripe is the touchscreen. What is wrong with buttons. Why must everything be hidden behind a menu I have to navigate on a touchscreen. It feels less safe, frankly. In my own car I have muscle memory for each button and can do things like skip songs or adjust the AC without looking away from the road... But in the EV I can't.
