"I liked his policies, mainly his support for education and affordable housing, said Shirley Wong, 70, of Bensonhurst, referring to Mamdani. "He seems to listen to us."

But less than a year ago, Wong cast her ballot for Trump. She cited the influx of migrants in her neighborhood, as well as the cost of living under President Joe Biden. But now, Wong said she regretted voting for Trump, citing the Big Beautiful Bill's projected cuts to Medicaid

Why you shouldn't go to Best Buy stores

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/47760122

::: spoiler Transcript A post by Dr. Amy Psy.D. @[email protected] saying: So I had to stop by Best Buy and the sales guy was going really hard trying to get me to sign up for the credit card. Like I said I didn’t want it and he was like “does YOUR card get you 15% off I don’t think so” and I was like buddy I know they make you push it but please stop and he was like actually they don’t, I just really like the Best Buy credit card. And then he wouldn’t tear my receipt off because he said the chemicals would take away his testosterone. Anyway this is why I shop online. :::

Resize tall images when using full height image mode?

I've recently switched to Thunder from Sync, but am surprised that there's not an option to resize tall images to the display size. When opening an image in full screen, it does this, but not in the feed or when opening a post. Basically this would be an option in between card view and full height imagea, for images which are taller than the display window.

This is an egregious example, but this post takes up so much of the feed when full height images is set. Also, I'm not sure about most instances, but they seem to resize the thumbnail aggressively on tall posts, so even if full height images without resizing is your preference, the quality looks terrible anyway, and you're forced to click into the post to see the full size image.

Anyway, maybe I'm missing some settings, but this behavior seems like something someone else would have wanted, but I don't see it as a setting.
