The fact that in some instances the legal system does work according to the invocation of a magic phrase makes it so much harder to deal with the delusions of sovcits. The right to remain silent should be just that. You don’t have to say “I’m invoking my right to free speech” every time before opening your mouth for it to count.
Key words in that sentence: give you those things. I doubt the lord tech bro could do any of that if the apocalypse happened tomorrow.
Even the janky version requires skill and knowledge, and if he doesn’t have the crude then both are useless anyway. Building a hole in the ground with motorcycles doesn’t help you when you depend on a highly connected world to fuel and maintain it.
Where are you getting the gas, Steve? Gas is only good for a few months in storage without treatment and a couple of years with it. Have you never read a fucking book?
Oh my god, a common pervert has been blowing into my ass this entire time and not a trained musician??
I imagine a solution could be the same one from Web 1.0: webrings. Find one site on one and you’ve found a lot more interesting, curated ones as well.
Someone is very mad all their posts kept getting naughty notes!
My stupid is 100% organic. Can’t have the AI make you dumber if you don’t use it.
Oh my god I forgot about those fucking trees. Something about those ceramic figurines in general really freaked me out as a kid. The burger face one that I think was a cop was so weird.
The cow/graveyard game, finding signs that start with each letter of the alphabet, finding license plates from the most states, punch buggy of course, and if my parents were pissed off the silent game was enforced.
But NEVER counting the number of cars you see. That was bad luck.
People will say it doesn’t make a difference, but it apparently made enough of a difference that they still can’t find the guy that was putting pipe bombs around the US capitol. I think at least a portion of the “they can still identify you under your mask with computers” claims are based on very niche situations (high quality footage of someone wearing a thin, fabric mask) and exaggeration or allowing people to incorrectly draw their own conclusions.
Oh, my workaround for that is easy, just develop lifelong crippling anxiety and still forget about 10% of them anyways!
That was the pop culture take on it, that doesn’t mean that’s what the evidence shows.
Because it was wildly under diagnosed in many places until recently, and if you weren’t a white boy you were a lot less likely to be correctly diagnosed.
Not even! I think it was a combination of high UV hitting me from the sun and it getting reflected from the pavement. That can be a real danger at the beach, too, even under an umbrella.
I’ve burnt in 15 minutes here, probably 10-11 UV when it happened. Now I wear a sun jacket so I’m not slathering sunscreen on myself all the time, because that’s a sensory nightmare for me.
It has the number of steps it does so that the pressure from the button holding your pants closed is evenly distributed over the fabric (and thread), so that nothing tears or rips. When sewing through cloth more points of attachment is generally better. You might be able to staple a button on without damaging the fabric over time, but it’s probably a lot less comfortable to wear than one sewn on.
Just attached a button to my pants yesterday, after the factory sewn button gave up.
The Tesseract front end for lemmy lets you get one of several archive site links for any posted article with 2 clicks, if you haven’t tried it yet. I think your instance admin has to (install? enable?) it, but it’s worth it just for that IMO
It feels like Ren & Stimpy sometimes because one of the writers (Katie Rice) did work on the Ren & Stimpy reboot! So you’re spot on with picking up on that. IMO that adds to it rather than detracts because so much of R&S was making references to or riffing off the ‘golden age’ of cartoons that Looney Tunes was part of, but if that style of humor is boring to you then I could see it detracting from the movie. I wasn’t constantly cracking up or anything, but I was smiling and laughing more than I was bored. Which honestly feels like a huge hurdle for movies now, lol.
I saw this during the theater run and it’s really funny, I recommend it if you like Looney Tunes even a little. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did!
If I could hold down a button to clean my shower you bet your ass I would.
The lack of a sparkle and a ding when you finish cleaning something is a major mark against real life cleaning, as well.
