Blows my mind that vasectomies are the less common procedure. Got mine done cheaply many years ago. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Partner got tubes done recently (so that insurance couldn't deny her for medically necessary hysterectomy later, what a dumb system we have) and she was miserably bedridden for quite a while, with the scars to prove it. Would have been expensive if she wasn't maxed for out-of-pocket already.

Anyone have a sane explanation?

Simple. The magnet weighs less than the car, so the magnet is going to be moving to the left. If the force is going to the left, that means the car can only go in reverse.

I am more attached to the idea of the fediverse as a whole than to Lemmy.

I think we should all be called "feds."

Gonna preface this by saying this is not my worst, or really even a bad experience. We were in a 69 with her on top. I was getting into it and wrapped my arms around her waist, squeezing her down on me. This was just the right amount of pressure to squeak a little fart out of her, which made me giggle while still firmly planting my face in the fun zone. The sensation of me giggling made her tense up, ripping a fat one right in my face. I pulled my face away so I could laugh harder, but that made me gasp through my mouth, and I cough while yelling "OH GOD IT'S IN MY MOUTH!" We are both dying from laughing so hard, but a moment later she suddenly says "LET ME UP" in a really panicked tone and runs to the bathroom. I sat up so I could ask if she was OK, and felt a drip from my beard. I said "wow babe you left me a little treat, you were really wet!" She screams through the door "OH MY GOD DON'T LICK THAT!" She had laughed so hard that she peed on my face.

Some people see their pre-transition selves as being one gender, and only use their post-transition gender to inform their new pronouns later. It was written by a person that interviewed her and apparently held her in high respect. All we can see is that there is an abrupt change in the pronouns, where Lynn presumably could have considered herself to match the new pronouns. We don't know without asking her if she was misgendered by the article, and we are a bit late for that.

It will eventually be supported, and in the interim they have stated that they won't keep biometric data obtained through ID.me once a verification is completed, or you can opt for an online interview where no biometrics are collected in the first place.

Who knows if ID.me will actually delete the data on their end though, or if the online interview is recorded by the provider.

How much vibration is the computer subjected to? Do you live in a limestone quarry?

Look at this guy here, trying to do actual work with a trackpad. Just use it to click the next YouTube video like everyone else does during work hours.

It was in the New York Times and ProPublica. Others are probably just getting to it.

I think of a "mobile device" as a phone, tablet, and smartwatch, but those latter two categories are dwarfed by the market for phones, so I think they can be ignored. Laptops are dominated by Windows and macOS (BSD/Unix descendant, not Linux), so that can also be ignored. A few sites of questionable reputation put the global market share of iOS at around 30%, but let's suppose it's only 20%. In order for 99% of all mobile devices to be Linux-based, then only 1% of the total could be an iOS device, and roughly another 4% of the total is every other (presumably) Linux-based phone. That leaves 95% of the "mobile device" market for non-phone devices, which seems unrealistic, even accounting for industrial and commercial devices.

Let me get this straight, you think running something in a browser with its sandboxed design, is somehow less secure than downloading executables off of GitHub?

I've been outside. It was awful.

Epic has donated a sizable amount to fund Godot Engine, and other FOSS projects. UE4 and UE5 can both be built from source to run on Linux natively. They are not smothering FOSS or Linux.

Nope, unfortunately now the car has been magnetized, and that would swap the polarity, making it move in the opposite direction, which is reverse again.

So I got that first part down, 100%. I didn't read the rest, but I assume it all came together, and proved this is McCarthyism.

These guys weren't against wearing diapers to begin with. They were at least curious about it, or even desperate to finally try it in public. Maybe being out as their true selves will help them develop emotionally a bit. I support more MAGAs wearing their diapers in public spaces.

The person you are replying to is assuredly aware of the topic. What was stated is paraphrasing a direct response to the paradox, which has been posted here several times, and many more on Reddit before that.

Meanwhile whistleblower Jerry Seinfeld, who raised alarm over plane food quality, is still alive

For about $12 USD, you can buy an electricity usage monitor and see in real time how much power it is using. Kill-A-Watt brand used to be cheap, but the clones are just as good now.

Possibly collaborating with the incumbent manufacturers on a joint platform, so they aren't designing their own cars anymore. They have lost a tremendous amount of credibility with the cyber truck, and all they have to show for it is a massive recall liability.

Me too! My favorite is that some river turtles can breathe through their assholes.

Hard to tell if it is actually worse or a false memory, because they originally came out when garbage sugar-laced food science was really taking off targeting the younger demographic.

And for those who don't know, Yasunori Mitsuda worked himself so relentlessly on the soundtrack that he ended up developing stomach ulcers that required hospitalization. You know the soundtrack is good if the composer would rather be shitting blood than let his work be less than perfect.

Sometimes you just need some round things in your face, even if they are your own

Not sure how to react to a neo-nazi book club at the local high school doing membership drives though. There are always going to be people, regardless of society's guidance and teachings, who are extra susceptible to that kind of shit.

I think free speech absolutism leads to tolerating the intolerant, which just doesn't work when you are dealing with imperfect primate neurological evolution. People experience the uncaring universe, and our brains struggle to identify the complex and nuanced systems at the root of strife, causing them to look for simpler answers (Jewish space lasers vs. incomprehensible market interactions that over-exploit delicate ecosystems causing droughts). Our brains are set up to tackle problems at smaller scales, and what better way than scapegoating can you reduce a root cause to be more manageable? Mental gymnastics only have to be done once.

You can educate most people to equip them to defeat neo-nazi rhetoric logically, but humans cannot be programmed with the right answers and society will always produce some fuck-ups. Is it easier to prevent a new member of a hate group by banning their ideas, or let them ruin an innocent life and attempt to rehab them after?

Niagara Falls isn't too far out of your area, 9 hours for the American side, maybe 10 for Canadian. Walking on the pier under the Canadian side is incredible, if you are willing to pay for the ferry ride.

Infrastructure needs depend on how the car is used. I have a basic level 1 charger (120v/15a household outlet) and so far have used public chargers zero times. There has only been one time where I didn't have enough charge for back to back trips to the next major city over, and had to rely on our second (ICE) car. Could have been avoided with a better charger. I have been hitting ~700 miles per month. One thing to keep in mind is that you just need enough charge to get to your destination and back. Going to the gas station is a big hassle so you are used to always filling up from empty. With the EV, my house is my refill station, so I just connect the cord every time I park. Even after a long trip where the car is near empty, charging slowly for 2 hours is enough for a quick errand. I'll admit that I would have some charging anxiety if I only had the EV with no backup, but practically speaking it just doesn't become an issue. Just keep enough charge to make it to the nearest hospital, and get a level 2 charger (240v/>=32amp) for almost 4x the charging rate.

Does the server have to run headless, or can one person still run games locally on it while another has a remote session? That is, would I be able to play on the monitor/mouse/keyboard directly attached, while my partner has a session on a laptop?

Got my vote, since it is implementation agnostic, and refers to the big differentiator from centralized platforms

We have a bright future ahead of us as a species after all

Just speculating, but maybe they want to keep their options open for selling one or the other off later. That way, they re-diversify with two series that are different enough to take risks, and get emergency cash if they fail.

Pretty sure they've fucked people in a very sexual sense tho

I am gonna admit that the only reason I watched the trailer was because of the name. I ended up coming out of it excited by the game for it's art direction and proposed game play. I have also played the hell out of DMZ and now am looking for the next best iteration of the formula. I stopped playing single player games a loooooong time ago.

Over 95% of the world’s hydrogen is produced using the steam methane reforming process (SMR). In this reaction, natural gas is reacted with steam at an elevated temperature to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen. A subsequent reaction — the water gas shift reaction — then reacts additional steam with the carbon monoxide to produce additional hydrogen and carbon dioxide.

Natural gas is a fossil fuel and non-renewable resource that is formed when layers of organic matter (primarily marine microorganisms) decompose under anaerobic conditions and are subjected to intense heat and pressure underground over millions of years.

I think there were multiple Motorola phones that had the LED unused in stock ROMs, which makes me think it was a patent/legal issue, rather than an engineering decision.

I didn't before but now I am glad I did
