I can say with certainty that trying to argue with me about why I should support the lesser evil is a complete waste of your time and energy.
Well, I guess we'll just have to agree on that then.

You're conflating voting for someone with supporting them. I didn't support Hillary or Kamala but I still voted for them because the alternative was so much worse. That's just the shitty reality of our two-party, fptp voting system.
In this system, one of those two parties will win regardless of how you specifically cast or don't cast your vote. The time to fight for the ideal candidate is the four years leading up to the election. When you get to the ballot box, you really just have to swallow what's perfect and pick what's not terrible (at least in that moment).
Supporting the lesser evil makes useful idiots think that they're winning and therefore stop fighting back.
But the alternative is effectively accelerationism, throwing millions of people under the bus, and hoping that things shake out in your favor after a violent revolution. Which... I don't agree with as a plan, but we're kind of already on this path so 🤷♂️.
Also, I'm not mad at you. And I think I largely agree with you, with anger at the system and candidate selection. I just don't agree with you about casting your vote being the time and place to stage a protest (in a system like ours at least).
I get the frustration but this is a bad take.
In a two-party, first-past-the-post system you kinda have an ethical obligation to vote for the lesser evil. It's just a statistical fact you can't ignore.
It fucking blows, but if your choices are the shitty status quo or full blown fascism, you really should pick the status quo.
Obviously doesn't fix the problem with the Democrat party sliding further and further right since they can continue to claim "lesser evil"... and it also doesn't fix the DNC superdelegate shenanigans that got us Hillary instead of Bernie... but I'd rather the country be able to still exist to fight another day.
If you're making a starter from nothing, yeah it would likely take a week or two. But it's not difficult or very hands-on; you're just combining water and flour for a couple minutes each day and waiting for yeast rng.
Oh, I've never tried making the starter from nothing; mine is from a friend. It's probably easier just to ask around.
I've had good results with https://www.joshuaweissman.com/post/sourdough-bread (definitely watch the video).
If you have a stand mixer then follow this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEAHA6OHxPs
My personal tips:
Sourdough is super easy though! Probably barely an hour of actual hands-on time from start to finish with no-knead methods.
We'll just have to see how quickly we get a working emulator.
Ryubing (a fork of Ryujinx) is very good, so hopefully we'll see something stem from that.
