  • Dilbert creator Scott Adams dies aged 68 after prostate cancer diagnosis

  • Good riddance.

  • Olivia Dean fans refunded by Ticketmaster after singer criticises ‘vile’ resale practices

    Jump

  • I agree, TM is crap but it sure looks like she’s just feeding the problem and complaining about it.

    If she’s just about the money, fine, but to try to play the ethics card while raking it in…. is gross.

  • Olivia Dean fans refunded by Ticketmaster after singer criticises ‘vile’ resale practices

    Jump

  • I agree with her sentiment but she chose to use ticketmaster. WTH did she expect?

    It sure looks hypocritical to me to voluntarily use them and then complain about it. Put your money where your mouth is, etc etc.

  • Nationwide economic boycott targets holiday shopping season; Five things to know

    Jump

  • Basically don’t shop for anything noncritical from yesterday until 02 Dec (Tuesday).

    And try not to use credit cards for anything you do have to purchase.(I think debit cards are ok)

  • Full list of degrees not classed as ‘professional’ by Trump admin

    Jump

  • I’m kinda wondering if that’s their primary intention even if these scumbags are probably pleased with such an outcome.

    Maybe they sorted the list of degrees by repayment rate and labeled all the ones below a certain rate as ‘unprofessional’. Since women are still getting paid significantly less than men for the exact same work, they may have lower repayment rates which would show up like you’ve shown.

    To be clear, either way, fuck these clowns.

  • Why many men struggle to maintain deep male friendships later in life

    Jump

  • I feel that part of the reason is the lack of any kind of 3rd-space. And that’s what churches are for some people. (I’m also not religious)

    I’ve tried to find others that would want to open up a community makerspace but have had no luck.

    (typo)

  • Trump orders firing of labor statistics chief hours after data showed jobs growth slowed

    Jump

  • So if you don’t lie to make the numbers look good, you’re fired.

    Just great. And to think I was skeptical of the government’s economic reporting before this bs.

  • Removed

    Trump 'likely' will fire Fed Chair Powell 'soon,' White House official says

    Jump

  • Yeah, I don’t get the “trumpf will fire Powell” thing. He has no authority over the Fed, right?

    Yes, I get he can apply pressure indirectly, but that’s not the same as having the power to fire anyone at the Fed. So this sounds like the media trying to grant trump the appearance of more authority than he has, which is a bad thing.

    I’m hopeful Powell will stick out his term and continue to do make the best decisions he can.

  • Seeing fewer fireflies this year? Here’s why, and how you can help.

    Jump

  • Fewer? Locally, friends have been commenting in the past week or so how nice it has been that there are so many more this year. (Western NY) And more bees, ticks, and mosquitos.

    I get that we’re in a massive crash but at the moment, locally, there seems to be at least a momentary uptick.

  • Trump threatens to cut off New York City funds if Mamdani ‘doesn’t behave’

    Jump

  • Sounds good to me!

    NY was the eleventh state in the US. We’d become the eleventh province of Canada, nice!

  • Trump Says He’s Moving Forward With Ending Birthright Citizenship After Supreme Court Gives OK

    Jump

  • This is definitely worrisome.

    But is it the end of the Constitution quite yet?

    The Supreme Court hasn’t weighed in on the executive order trying to negate birthright citizenship, they said that lower courts couldn’t block EO’s at a national level.

    Implicitly, their not commenting on the EO feels like they’ll let it stand when the case arrives, if they choose to hear it. Then I’d say the US Constitution is toast.

    I’m an engineer, not a lawyer. I’d love to hear what someone more knowledgeable about this thinks.

  • Critical hurricane forecast tool abruptly terminated

    Jump

  • Let’s try again.

    Think carefully, surely you can see that two and two is five.

    Don’t you agree?

  • Do you use other federated software besides Lemmy (e.g. Mastodon/Pixelfed/etc.), if so which?

    Jump

  • Mastodon but not nearly as much as Lemmy.

    Bookwyrm but not nearly as much as Mastodon.

    I really wanted Bookwyrm to be more useful for me. But it’s really not geared towards what I want in keeping track of books. ymmv

  • Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message?

    Jump

  • Few people can focus enough to read.

    I work in a technical field. In the past few years I’ve learned that interacting by email usually requires one-line sentences or bullet points, with any questions being numbered. No fluff, no secondary thoughts or possibilities. Keep it as minimal as possible.

    It still fails to elicit a coherent response about half the time, but it’s the best I’ve found so far.

    It didn’t use to be like this. But what’s to blame; screen addiction, microplastics, covid, increased stress, … ?

  • Trump Tells Inner Circle That Musk Will Leave Soon

    Jump

  • I’d be glad to:

    Pack his bags tonight preflight..

  • Tesla sales tumble 13% as Musk backlash, competition and aging lineup turn off buyers

    Jump

  • Really? Only 13%?

    Maybe it’s a lagging indicator? Maybe sales in China picked up? Maybe the numbers have been finessed?

  • Amazon rainforest cut down to build highway for COP climate summit

    Jump

  • Obligatory, #NotTheOnion

  • Tim Walz says he and Harris were too ‘safe’ during 2024 presidential campaign

    Jump

  • And the Dems are, mostly, still too safe. They need to start fighting while they still have a chance of stopping the insanity.

    Step 1: Schumer needs to step down.

  • What do you pick rule.

    Jump

  • But.. no container is truly empty.Usually they contain air, but even in space there'd be one or two molecules banging around inside.You'd never see anything.
