  • Skydance Tells FCC It Will Create CBS News Ombudsman, Eliminate DEI at Paramount

    Jump

  • Wow, really suckling that orange teat, aren't you Skydance? With a $20 million donation too.

    This merger is a purchase-and-tank operation. CBS is a front for right-wing misinformation now.

  • El Salvador releases hundreds of US deportees from notorious prison in US-Venezuela swap

    Jump

  • But now if they died it's obviously someone else's fault. /s

  • EPA Says It Will Eliminate Its Scientific Research Arm

    Jump

  • That's sort of the point. But those pulling the strings want to rebuild American government as they envision, not what was working.

  • Tomatoes are set to jump in price as Trump slaps a 17% tariff on the grocery staple

    Jump

  • Ahh true. I do have outdoor pots for mine and natural sunlight. My grow tent houses herbs like basil that I use year round.

  • Tomatoes are set to jump in price as Trump slaps a 17% tariff on the grocery staple

    Jump

  • My local grocery store sells tomatoes starting at $3.99/lb.

    A pack of seeds was $1.50 and my plants are 2-4' tall and loaded.

  • Cyclists don’t break traffic laws any more than drivers, says new study

    Jump

  • The outcome is sort of the same if those kilograms break rules in front of a 2 ton brick obeying laws.

  • Lemmy/ the Fediverse is not a viable alternative to Reddit

    Jump

  • Yeah, Lemmy is pretty small. Even I miss the massive subreddits or moreso the small niche ones.

    I will point out that Reddit is roughly 20 years old and that audience took time to grow. I don't really want Lemmy to grow that much because it does bring the riffraff that plaged reddit, but it is pretty lonely out here in the corner of the internet. I do find myself refreshing apps hoping for new content quite often.

  • US used car prices surge as tariffs drive market volatility

    Jump

  • Just searched my car and "for sale" and browsed what popped up.

  • US used car prices surge as tariffs drive market volatility

    Jump

  • Just looked up my car on used car sites. Someone is selling the same make and model as mine for $200 less than I paid back in 2007.

    In the back of my head there's a voice telling me if I could sell mine for what I bought and it'd be like a free car all these years, usual maintenance stuff excluded. That's be a kick-ass deal! But then I'd be out an extremely reliable car.

  • NYC traffic deaths hit record low in first half of 2025

    Jump

  • Absolutely nowhere in the article was that mentioned or credited to the decreases. Road design, police/camera enforcement, and ebike/scooter speed caps were.

  • Zelenskyy calls conversation with Trump most productive and announces agreements on air defence

    Jump

  • has been the best and most productive in the history of communication between the leaders.

    Maybe I'm just a skeptic, but I don't believe for a second that was Zelenskyy. Perhaps he was, um, encouraged to say talking points or part of the deal was to flatter Donny Dumbass. Maybe in a use-this-secret-phrase-to-kiss-my-ass-and-i'll-help kind of deal.

    Glad Zelenskyy has support again though.

  • I would still download a car if I could. 🚗

    Jump

  • I used to think that too, but it's day 144 and still no tomatoes!

    (Referencing a meme for those who are confused)

  • Summer's well on its way in the Northern Hemisphere. Here's a visual representation of how incredibly important tree cover is, especially in cities.

    Jump

  • Along the same lines are all the parks in my city that cut down large trees to plant small ornamental trees. Oh, want a bench? Nowhere near the trees. Yeah, I'm talking about you, Shoreline park! WTheck

  • Outgrown my Synology NAS, time for a proper dedicated machine

    Jump

  • That's the route I took too. NAS for storage and simple docker containers, Minipc for compute/GPU.

  • Thumbs up to people dying.

    Jump

  • Queue police siren and light...

    "The Naked Gun" theme music begins

    Roll intro!

  • Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base

    Jump

  • I just got a cheap minipc to tinker with and it had windows 11. Not bad and unexpected.

    First thing I did was wipe and install Ubuntu of course because that's what I wanted.

  • Immigration raids leave crops unharvested, California farms at risk

    Jump

  • Most Americans don't want to do this work.

    Well, yeah. Excuse the generalizations, but we don't live 6 to an apartment or farm housing and ship our wages back home where the dollar goes further. We have to survive here long term and farmers don't pay COL, savings, and retirement.

    Americans don't do this because it's a bad deal.

  • Reevaluating my password management

    Jump

  • Bitwarden/vaultwarden is a popular option for selfhosters.

  • This rich California city is losing its mind over a housing project

    Jump

  • Just pointing out that housing is so absurd in that area, parking spaces are housing in many of those areas. I drive through and the roads are lined with campers and RV's from all the tech workers grabbing their bag of gold after a couple years and bugging off somewhere cheap.
