  • This is cute! I've been practicing making GIFs with FFMPEG and this looked like a good candidate, so I smoothed it out a bit, made it a GIF, and added ":P" at 1.5 seconds 😸

  • Looked through your library, quite extensive and I like what I'm hearing! I'll give tnght a proper listen over time, thank you for sharing ♥️

  • Immediately doubting the word of ICE goons is a solid strategy, no matter the circumstances.

  • Trump Says He Wants to 'Drive Housing Prices Up' Instead of Lowering Costs for People Who 'Didn't Work Very Hard'

    Jump

  • Neat, and totally irrelevant because we have no idea if our examples are geographically proximate. In the area I'm living in now, at the same grocery store, the price of a honeycrisp apple has more than quadrupled in the last 5 years. Averaged out that's 60% YoY inflation.

    And there is a reason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8-wqv9_-Ac

  • A honeycrisp apple costs over two fucking dollars. Five years ago it was fifty cents. Not fifty years ago. Five. Small, but entirely emblematic of the problem.

  • Palestinian developer gains massive user support for UpScrolled, app challenging censorship claims criticising US and Israel after losing over 60 relatives in Gaza

  • When will people learn that the problem with centralised social media isn't "the name or nationality of the founders", but "the fundamental issue of having a single point of failure in your communications networks"?

    Stop organising on centralised platforms. They all end up the same way. Jesus Christ.

  • Trump Team’s Secret Meetings With Group Plotting to Break Up Canada Exposed

  • Who's been paying attention and didn't see it coming? Danielle Smith has been betraying Canadians for years with her shitty policy experiments in Alberta, this is right on brand for her.

  • If anyone is going through life itchy and not aware of why: dry skin, probably. I spent years scratching until I bled, and I'd bite when scratching didn't do the trick.

    Just take some coconut oil and rub it into the itchy bit. Doesn't matter if it's liquid ("Medium-Chain Triglyceride" or MCT oil) or solid, but I prefer liquid (I keep it in a little dropper bottle). Coconut oil sinks into the skin FAST, so it doesn't leave a thick sticky residue - that's always been my problem with moisturisers.

    If you need something more heavy duty, like if your skin is cracking or flaking, Palmer's "Coconut Hydrate" moisturiser (https://palmers.com/collections/hand-body-care-products/products/coconut-oil-body-lotion) does leave a bit of a residue but it's manageable at least for me. The face lotion (https://palmers.com/collections/face-care-products/products/coconut-water-facial-moisturizer) is very light though, and I haven't noticed it leaving a residue at all. I often use the face lotion on my hands because the body lotion is too thick for my liking.

    I had to learn all this after moving to a high desert. Dry skin has been a problem my whole life, but here it got too bad to ignore.

    guys fix ur shit ASAP or we switch to other app... Newpipe.net is down, saying connection is not secure

    Jump

  • Hey, pal. This isn't the fuckin help desk, Newpipe is open source software. Interact with people like this if you never want your issues fixed; being an entitled shithead is a sure shot to get people to hate you and not give a fuck about your problems.

    If you want the opposite of that, stop being an entitled shithead and figure out what questions you need to ask to fix the problem yourself instead of demanding service like you're paying anyone for anything.

  • I'm editing my response, 'cause you know what? You don't know anything about me, my business, or my ethics. You have no standing to judge my character, and based on the fact that you have anyway, I don't care to know anything else about you or engage with you further.

  • Yes, that is indeed the fact I was downplaying as "minor". I have an even bigger target on my back, and I'm a lot less mobile with all my assets tied up like this.

  • It Will Take Years to Fully Grasp Eric Adams’s Corruption

    Jump

  • I don't know why, but this time, I'm willing to give the guy the benefit of the doubt. I guess it's just that I haven't heard anything inconsistent out of him yet, which is already notable. Very interested to see how this all goes.

  • The law is a funny creature. I own a business myself (just started, actually!) and it would suck to be brought up on charges I have no idea about but I'm being held personally liable for. I'm grateful for the LLC protection in that case. Of course, I'm also not planning on committing any crimes, nor having my business commit crimes, so it's a minor worry. Really only important in the event the law gets weaponised against the people, say for example by a foreign asset in high office... 😬

  • But that's what I'm saying - I don't think those kind of jokes are funny anymore. When I was younger I thought it was all in good fun, that nobody really meant it and that's why it was funny, but then I saw the world and realised it's very much not. The humour was drained away by the hatred.

  • Yeah, I agree. I guess I should have said I used to think he was funny. It's been a long damn time since he said anything that made me laugh.

  • Dammit. I thought he was funny, turns out he's a xenophobic fuckhead.

    I actually already couldn't enjoy Fawlty Towers anymore, the racism is obvious to me now that I'm an adult. It's distasteful. I guess for John, it wasn't just "the times" the show was made in. Ah well, plenty of not-fuckheads whose work can be enjoyed.
