Unpopular opinion, but I always find this kind of thing funny. US is damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
We get involved, we’re imperialist swine that only care about our interests.
We don’t, and are scrutinized for letting bad things happen.
I have an old “smart” Vizio TV from like 2012 (?) that has outlasted 2 new 4k smart TVs. I’ll stick with this guy till it pops
Followed by how Linux is so amazing
The alcohol thing is really just an east coast thing, and Utah.
Nah, the bullets would’ve just given up halfway through flight
And music, TV, Movies, Books, thoughts
Betteridge’s law of headlines. Any headline that ends with a question the answer is always no.
There’s literally dozens of us
Macroeconomics 101 would tell you no, prices won’t go down because prices are sticky. Like your salary for example, just because a business is doing poorly your wage won’t go down.
I won’t get into the weeds about it, but if Ukraine was magically restored tomorrow, prices wouldn’t go down but it would help prices from going up faster.
If we see prices go down that’s a bad thing, and we are in for a rough time.
No one reads the articles man. I won’t lie, I’m guilty of it, but it’s mainly cuz Im lazy and go to the comments hoping someone will give a synopsis.
Never said it didn’t, but reddit is more left leaning than right as a whole.
Lemmy is just straight lefty though. I’m a liberal person so it doesn’t bother me other than it just being a massive circle jerk most of the time.
Look I understood that when I made that comment no one would like it, but it’s just the truth…
I’ve been here since the API garbage from reddit, and use it daily so I feel like I can make an honest assessment of my experience thus far.
I like it, its great. Better than reddit in a lot of ways. If someone is/was a heavy Reddit user I recommend it.
Welcome to Lemmy! If you thought Reddit was left leaning, you’re in for a wild ride!
Also if you’re an American you probably shouldn’t be, because they automatically assume you’re from the Bible belt. They will simultaneously say they don’t care for American politics but then will always be talking about it.
Linux is the best OS just don’t get into it. You better be using firefox. All the niche subs you had on Reddit aren’t here, and you’ll more likely just be blocking communities instead of subbing to anything.
And no one reads the articles, way more than reddit imo
The comments are slightly more interesting though.
It’s not all that bad though, I’m being a little sarcastic, but only a little…
So that’s why my work laptop is down for the count today. I’m even getting that same error as the thumbnail picture
Whenever I see something like this I feel I must defend my friend who’s a cop.
Before being a cop he was a lifeguard at a beach and my bassist.
Baywatch may tell you differently, but being a lifeguard is a seasonal job, and not a career. The next level of being a lifeguard is becoming a cop, so he did, and he has only beaten one black man so far.
It’s fairly insane that from Romford to Sutton which is only 30 miles, it’s roughly an hour and 45 minutes.
I just went to the Wiltern in downtown LA last night and it’s about the same distance as Romford to Sutton from where I live, and without traffic, it takes 40 minutes, with traffic an hour.
I read it and watched the video.
The video was of sarcastic tone, but he was totally serious about his support for Trump.
He makes it seem like California is just this lawless place of criminals running around everywhere, because of what he claims of slashed police force budgets and closed prisons.
When he had a deputy get caught with a bunch of fentanyl supplied by the cartel, and his police force had an increased budget of 270 million since 2019.
He’s totally one of those “rules for thee, not for me” kind of people.
Riverside sucks anyway.
It’s usually less that that too. Typically if you show you have got your license within the time of getting the ticket they let you go. If he just showed up and said he has an appointment or was going to make one, the judge would’ve made another date so that he could prove he got his license. Then no fine or jail.
Happened to me. I was pulled over without a license. Immediately went and got my license. They made a date but the mailing address they sent to I wasn’t there. Being dumb I thought meant it was handled.
Lo and behold like 10 years later, when I’m getting hired for my current job they say I have a bench warrant. I went down to the courthouse the next day, the judge gave me a real weird look since it’s been like 10 years, and said " do you have your license " I showed it to him, and then let me go.
Suck for you, but I would expect no less from someone who’s username is SatansMaggotyCumFart.
Dude you hit the nail on the head right there. I’ve been thinking of installing Reddit back because some of the content I enjoyed there is just not here.
Ive tried to recreate the subs I had on Reddit to here, but it’s empty. So I just browse All and block anything that has to do with politics, but it’s impossible because everything is just lefty politics in some way. Like I’m a liberal person, but I feel like I’m considered right leaning from some of the shit people say on here.
And if I don’t have NSFW off it’s just trans everywhere.
Like do what you wanna do, be who you wanna be, but I don’t wanna see THAT lol
I use a disposable vape now and I was adamant about not using one because of the wastefulness, until they banned flavored vape liquid in my state.
It started to get really hard to buy coils for my vape, because it became unprofitable for these companies to operate here, and then even harder to find the liquid I enjoy.
Non-disposable ones tend to be bulky too. Not to mention the maintenance is a huge pain in the ass. The non-disposable vapes tend to leak. Doesn’t matter which one you use. If you don’t prime the coil correctly they burn out in a few puffs, and you just wasted 5+ bucks on the coil you’ve been searching for. Coils only tend to last a few days to a week as well. So you’re always on this search to find coils. Also reusable ones only last for a few months to maybe a year anyway (if you’re lucky), then you have to spend 100+ on a new one.
Sure you could get the little pod ones but now you’re being wasteful because you can’t reuse those either, and break twice as fast.
Now I can buy 2 disposables that last a month, don’t leak, don’t take a lot of real estate in my pocket, are significantly cheaper, is easier to find, and the flavor is always consistent.
I would’ve been fine with my reusable one until they banned the products that allowed me to use it.
So yeah prohibition doesn’t work. You ban this people will just go back to smoking. Which is just as wasteful and way more toxic.
