I got a really girly looking beanie (I'm a guy) at a white elephant gift exchange and it became my favorite beanie. It got stolen and I'm sad that I can't find it again.

Almost all of my posts here get upvoted. On reddit they mostly got ignored.

Nestlé's ethics already went to dark mode.

I want both liberal and conservative views. I'm not planning on leaving lemmy.

The company I work for changed their policy on paid vacations. Starting in August I'm going to have a lot of vacation days and I'm going to use them.

Different people have different standard of what it means to be fluent in a language. I would say that if you can comfortably have a casual conversation you're fluent. If you're fluent in 2 languages I would call that bilingual. You don't have to be as good as a native speaker in both languages.

English is your second language and you typed a pretty long post in perfect grammar so I would say you're bilingual.

A plant that captures Co2? So trees? Are we going to use wood as a jet fuel?

Are you using a VPN? I get messages like that with Surfshark.

It happens within months, not days. I don't use honey and I don't pirate. I use both chrome and Firefox, but maybe I should stick to Firefox.

Liftoff for now until boost is released.

You have a point there. I agree with a lot of views from the left even though I'm on the right.

They use a few cents (in US dollars) a year.

Same here, but for boost. I never heard of Lemmy until boost for Lemmy was announced.

ChatGPT just want Mr. Incredible on you.

I'd like to tell you that the captcha says overlooks and inquiry, but I can't. I'm sorry ma'am. I know you're upset. I'd like to help you, but I can't.

Actually they're Leo. Cancer is in late June and July.

I know people here will try to debate me on every issue here and I know I won't have time for that. Go ahead and ask whatever questions you want, but I can't promise I'll answer everything. .

I don't have a perfect knowledge of exactly what's on the left and right so please forgive me if I put something in the wrong category.

I understand that left vs right ideally shouldn't exist. The same goes for political parties. They do exist so here's some of my views from both sides.

Right. I don't agree with critical race theory. Skin color should be treated like hair color or eye color. It's just a way to describe someone.

Government should strictly obey the constitution.

Billionaires should exist if they do businesses ethically.

People involved in abortions should consider the life of the fetus.

I find myself agreeing more with conservatives when voting.

The electoral college is a good thing because it lets small towns have a voice.

Left. Walkable cities are a more efficient use of space.

Climate change is real and humans are continuing. It's not going to destroy the world in 5 years like some people are saying. It's mostly going to affect poor costal countries and islands many years in the future.

Corporations should be held accountable for their actions.

Puerto Rico and other US territories should be a states or their own country.

People involved in abortions should consider the life of the mother.

There is a drink chiller that chills drinks in about a minute. You could use the same idea for other things.

I have a credit card too, but I don't use it as much. It's from a credit union, not my bank. I don't remember it ever getting stolen.

I'm not Thai, but they have an idiom that something will happen one afternoon in their next reincarnation.

Yeah they're all from the same bank.

Yeah I could try that.

I don't watch fox news.

I blocked all nsfw content. I haven't blocked any specific communities. It was just a check box when I joined lemmy.

I have beliefs from both sides. I just agree with the right a little more.

I don't have apple pay, but I do use Google pay whenever I can.

UPS pilots are also going to strike with the teamsters.

I saw it live on the news before school.

I only vote republican when they have good views. I'd rather get rid of political parties and make people run on merit alone.

The future was October 21st 2015.

Yeah that would explain it

I use duck duck go for incognito stuff. I know google can still see what I search in incognito mode.

So googling normal stuff is fine?

Some version of Ubuntu. I got a free laptop that didn't have an operating system so I just put linux on it because I didn't want to buy windows.

Did anyone else play digimon quest to save the net? That was one of the first online games I played on dial up.

When I was about 12 I had a computer nerd friend who used linux almost exclusively. I used various linux distros at his house. I don't know what they were.

He gave me a knopix CD so I could use linux too and that was the easiest way.

I thought I'd try linux myself so I burned Ubuntu to a cd and tried to install it on a family computer as a dual boot. I did it wrong and deleted everything. My dad is a computer network specialist so he understood what happened and wasn't mad. He made a backup of the family computer a while ago and restored it. We still lost some things, but not everything.

My friend got me a desktop computer for free and put SUSE on it. My parents wouldn't allow me to have internet in my bedroom so I just played games and made stuff on blender with it.

My friend also got me a free laptop at this computer nerd conference we went to. We listened to a bunch of people talk about computer stuff. They also had free stuff we could grab. I got myself a laptop. It didn't have an operating system so my friend installed Ubuntu on it for me.

Eventually that laptop and my desktop stopped working and I never used linux again. After reading about linux here I started to miss my Ubuntu laptop and I'd like to try it again, but I don't want ruin my current laptop like I did with the family computer.

I don't remember off the top of my head exactly what CRT is, but I remember this video was a really good explanation.

Edit: I also can't tell you exactly where it's being taught in the real world. It's not a topic I've done thorough research in.

I'll admit I'm susceptible to having the internet change my opinion on something. I'll just have to make sure I'm careful where I get my news.

Not a movie, but digimon adventure 1. I loved it as a kid watching all the digimon fights. I watched it again later in life and it was even better when I noticed all the character development.

Made snowman once on blender. Used as avatar on forums. Changed username to snowman. username stuck.
