I also fully support this boundary!

In the wordle world, this is almost a big enough deal to make an x, formerly known as twitter, burner account and post on the NYT page. Just a little jab in the stomach that other ppl will see

Lemmy_know when you got this up and running ❤️

This was an excellent breakdown of the American elections system, thank you

This turned into a Bond-esque naming of Game Pass

Shitty company tries to justify its existence

I’m reading Le Carre’s “The Spy who came in from the Cold.” The protagonist briefly reflects on torture and his own inability to resist it. The antagonist later says something to the effect of, ‘We believe you think you’ve told us everything, but we want to make sure we get what your subconscious isn’t telling us.’ A creepy thought about the perspective of a torturer. Admittedly, this book was written by an ex-spy in the sixties, and the mindset about torture has shifted. Just found it interesting and maybe relevant

Oh for sure, just a PSA - once I found out there were cards I wanted some, then found out I couldn’t have them lol

Damn, can’t buy this pack of cards outside the USA

Yeah this is my experience as well. I don’t have much technical knowledge about it, but Firefox with ublock seems to be the enemy of captcha and CloudFlare

I read a few and didn’t see this. I’m from a smallish town and ended up adopting the community gym. Best decision of my life, saved me from a really rough time. Gymrats are far friendly than their rep gets, most of them are just guys that just wanna bullshit and push shit. A community rec center is also a great option, or a beer league. Just stuff that forces you outside, even when you pull the “but I don’t wannaaaaaa”

This is gonna give me a hernes (hernia?)

Okay so I forgot how big the sun is and had that absentminded mental picture moment of “oh it would make a big bang as something 3/4s the size of the sun would hit it”…

This picture was a very helpful reminder of just how out to lunch that thought was. Don’t trust your absent thoughts, folks 😅

Chewed on the no politics at the Olympics comment for myself and I think where I landed was that the Olympics should be apolitical. I do think these countries should be punished for their actions, however, with the number and types of international destabilizing events increasing, I think this is a quick win for international cooperation. Something all humans can get behind. Doping obviously should be punished, but that’s an athletic issue.

Obviously the precedent of excluding countries has been set, so there’d be vitriolic pushback, but I think it would be worth it to have one majorly public institution (read: in popular awareness) that doesn’t judge, it just lets athletes compete.

Thoughts?

Ah but you assume I will remember to BUY Chia seeds 😂

Realistically it looks like the majority of my fiber intake is about to become oats and popcorn…

IMO, AWD is overhyped. I’ve driven in snowy, hilly terrain in Canada for 16+ years, and the number of times I’ve been truly, call for help stuck is 2. Always FWD and manual.

AWD is more expensive to purchase and maintain, burns more gas and tires, and doesn’t convey that many benefits. The ppl who really need AWD are generally the ones who actually need 4x4, and if you actually need 4x4 it’s for a good reason. Knowing how to drive your car well is more valuable.

Case in point: I once drove up a rocky mountain ski hill on an icy day. There was a rise where everyone was getting stuck, including AWD and FWD drivers. Ppl were helping each other by pushing the cars to get them up/started. I was there for 40 mins, not a single AWD car outdid a FWD car. Trucks with low gear 4x4 made it, with effort.

TLDR: IMO, AWD is more marketing hype than value that benefits the dealership more than the buyer. Save yourself the coin and get good winter tires instead. Stick with the Versa.

Love,

A fellow Versa driver

I guess though, that if it was a single connected body, the black hole it collapsed into would be a much larger black hole due to the amount of matter and absolutely still a threat. Defeats the purpose of the image but still a hum dinger.

I just really wanted to get hum dinger in there

My solution for this is just to not spend money in game

Is this contextual based on the comic? I’m not familiar with the comic strip
