  • Lee Zeldin, Trump’s E.P.A. Nominee, Is Short on Environmental Experience | Mr. Zeldin, a Trump loyalist, would be charged with dismantling climate rules and perhaps the agency itself.

  • Did anyone else read this too fast and think that Trump had nominated Led Zeppelin to lead the EPA while we weren't looking and then maybe feel slightly relieved?

  • Longevity-Obsessed Tech Millionaire Discontinues De-Aging Drug Out of Concerns That It Aged Him

  • Most of the things you read about on this topic are verging on pseudoscience (because nearly everything diet based is) and you're going to have to feel out how it works for you if you want to look into it, but we think the cravings you have are more about what your brain thinks are the best ways to get specific things.

    So, while you're craving 'sour gummi bears', what your brain actually wants might be a specific vitamin or mineral that your brain thinks it can get from that and it's likely to have an alternate healthy source. Real hard to put into practice and change how you approach that though.

  • I think that brings up the question of how do we go about establishing an absolute position? If everything is moving, what isn't?

    Everything being relative is a hell of a thing.

  • Never seen him this happy

    Jump

  • Weirdest part to me is that I really can't believe that he's drinking Diet Coke and not regular Coke. I know there's concerns about diet sodas, but that shows a concern about his health and what he puts in his body that I never imagined Trump was capable of.

  • Platforms Systematically Removed a User Because He Made "Most Wanted CEO" Playing Cards

  • The theory is that you could stretch it to fall under incitement, not sure if something quite like it has ever been prosecuted, but near everyone includes similar disclaimers if they want to do something like this.

  • Pick 3

    Jump

  • It would be kind of hilarious if all of these were actually fully achievable in real life.

    Magic is just close up street magic, if you select divine powers, someone offers you a job at the local cathedral. Radar sense, a box from amazon with some radar parts literally shows up on your doorstep.

  • Pick 3

  • From this chart, being attractive, smart, or rich are abilities, even gadgets is listed. Logically it doesn't make sense, but following the rules laid out, those are probably up for grabs.

    Also, who knows what they mean by magic, maybe you can go look up David Blaine.

  • Microsoft should be terrified of SteamOS

    Jump

  • Proton is basically magic. I've got 1960 games on steam and I have a chunk that are listed as 'untested' but less than 10 that are listed as incompatible. The games listed as untested also usually end up just working. You may have to mess with proton or winetricks sporadically, but even that is very rare in my experience. It is nearly always an issue in a multiplayer game with anti-cheat when it just doesn't work.

  • TIL about vaults, the largest structures in our cells. No one knows what they're for.

  • Ask any expert in almost any field of science. If they're good at their jobs, they'll mostly tell you the same thing about their field.

    The scariest thing in the world is that you can apply that to nearly everything.

  • New armor just dropped

  • Agreed, but only the part that can withstand the iron ball, so you all have to start putting pineapple skin on your pizzas.

  • For all of y'all thinking about typing it out, the video is no longer available.

    We'll never know.

    Bernie was our compromise

    Jump

  • I think this kind of exemplifies our problem. We're more focused on keeping up partisan divides than we are on celebrating what brings us together. I'm guilty of it too, but it's not supposed to be Left vs. Right, it's a class struggle and we've let them create a situation where all we want to do is fight amongst ourselves.

  • This guy heard the phrase "If you don't ask, you don't get it" and threw out all human decency and just fucking ran with it.

  • Weird part is the last announcement I can find from .world admins said those communities were going to be reinstated, but then here we are months later and they still seem busted.

  • This is the update post for it at least: https://lemmy.world/post/22920690

    The reasoning was 'jury nullification when this was suggested in context of murder or other violent crimes' potentially falling under 'advocating for violence'. They decided to clarify the rules a bit and going forward, advocating for violence is still banned, but have been directed that the policy doesn't apply to violence that has already happened.

  • The way the story goes... They didn't explicitly fuck up, some dude just though two snakes looked cooler than one and we've just been running with it for a few decades now. There is a story about how it was originally adopted by military personnel who transported medical supplies (along with messages so... it would kinda made sense) but the justification there does feel super cherry picked. Mostly, the accepted reasoning is that the caduceus is just a better design.

  • Not a completely standard thing, but a lot of places you wouldn't otherwise want to be known to work for will have something kind of like a parent company with a very nondescript name and a super generalized website that doesn't really tell you anything useful about what the company actually does. When you list it on your resume, you worked for that company. There's a lot of other benefits for the business itself, but it works out for the employees.
