I get hit by cars about once a year. I look both ways, and I don’t J-walk.

My issue is that drivers don’t look both ways. I’m nearly 2m tall, so it’s not like I’m hard to see. I’ve mostly been assaulted through vehicular negligence while crossing near one-way streets, from people turning right on red, and people turning left on 4 lane roads. If someone is coming from behind me at 50 or 60 kph and I am 15 meters into crossing a street, there’s absolutely no way that I would’ve been able to see them prior to me being in their path.

I don’t care 'cause I’m still free You can’t take the sky from me

…wrong show

That sounds more like a land registry system, than a key.

I also like the “10 Kilos of product was taken off of the street” which means like 12 grams of weed was turned into brownies

When my phone lost the headphone jack, I just stopped listening to music outside of my home.

I honestly prefer walks now.

I remember the term being thrown around a lot in the early days of Youtube. The optimism of the internet being mostly based on dynamic content created by real humans all over the world, with a lower barrier to entry than before.

The internet was a much different place before social media platforms basically took over.

There will for sure be some “Creativity” with their numbers.

“Carbon Neutral” will only apply to the manufacturing of the product, not the life of the product.
It will probably also only apply to the assembly that is done in-house. It might not apply to things like the tires.

It will also probably be done through some bulllshit “carbon credits”, which are about as honest and reliable as those “no, our $2 chocolate definitely didn’t use any child labour, and the farmers definitely aren’t paid slave-wages.” badges you find on foods.

Gross, I thought it allowed a username to opt it so all of their posts were duplicated.

Time for everyone to defederate from Alien.top

It’s at least opt-in for users to be mirrored (I think), but it’s still just creating spammy garbage.

Edit, I was wrong. It’s worse than I thought.

I have installed Ubuntu, Pop!, or Mint as a fix for wifi issues on laptops probably about a dozen times over the past 20ish years.

I have never had a wifi issue with linux. My husband has had issues with Linux and wifi in 2007. But that was 2007.

That’s how it works for most stores in Canada.

“theft over” (aka theft over $5,000.00) can get you 10 years in federal prison, “theft under” is up to two years in provincial jail. That’s a huuuge difference.

Also, more footage, more angles, easier to convict.

most Vulcans are a bunch of lying emotional sluts

Vulcans = twinks in their early 20s?

In Canada yellow means stop, unless it’s too late to stop then you need to get through the intersection during the grace period before it turns red.

Does it mean something else in the USA?

Take that person’s post, comparing it to cooking.

Sometimes you use a Library pre-made sauce or spice blend as part of a recipe, so you don’t need to waste time remaking something that is commonly used.

Every so often, a company will tweak the recipe for the things you are using, but it still basically tastes the same. Sometimes they just decide that now it’s salty instead of sweet, so it would complete ruin the dish you would like to make.

The recipe you are using assumes you live in Australia where the new version of the sauce/spice blend is more common, but where you live still only sells the old version.

So now you can either wait for the store to sell the new sauce/spice blend, import it from Australia, or try to make it yourself. But you might have another recipe that still needs/uses the old sauce/spice blend. Needing to have both can lead to issues where you use the wrong one, ruining the food you are trying to make.

This is where snaps, flatpaks, and appimages those dish-in-a-box kits come into play. They’ll have the correct version of the spices/sauces you want, so it doesn’t really matter which version you have in your kitchen.

Snaps branded dish-in-a-box kits are developed by Canonical, and they can be kinda weird. You need to check for updates if you need to re-buy them manually, and you can only get them from the “Snaps Store”. Other dish-in-a-box kits allow you to get them from whichever store you want, and will automatically re-order when needed.

And that’s the main issue folks have taken with snaps. If you have 50+ programs are making a meal with 50+ dishes, and you need to constantly check if you need to rebuy them one by one, it gets old quickly.

Also, Snaps takes up a lot of room, and generally just kinda suck compared to installing things normally or through flatpack.

Different people will have different answers, but one of the most common thing I have heard is that it’s basically another way that a big tech company was trying to control the internet.

Google started to basically require websites use AMP in order to appear in search results. This is a conflict because AMP doesn’t support all advertisements, but it does support all ads by Google. This matters on mobile because people are less-likely to have adblock. So they weren’t telling websites “if you don’t use our ads, you won’t show up in search results”, but they were implying “if you would like to continue to make a living you will use our ads and services.”

Don’t use social media

If you wrote this post, you do use social media.

I’m glad this tool exists, but I am more glad that I don’t live in the USA.

DISC, Picard, and the cartoons just aren’t my vibe, but I am glad they exist for those that love the shows.

I hate basically all youtube links on Lemmy, it seems like this is “reading” social media, not “watching” social media.

Isn’t government intervention the opposite of the “free market?”
