I did. Said I'd be leaving when they did the API thing and stuck with it. Missed reddit for a week and then moved on. Sync for Lemmy is fine. Lemmy is quieter but there's also less bullshit.

I am guessing he had good publicists, probably decided he could do the job better and got rid of them just before the pedo thing.
So completely overlooking the overlying political situation and just thinking about this incident - it's fuckin horrible.
I've been at a whole lot of techno parties back in the day and just imagining these events triggers a real wince in my soul. Remember being off your head at a really good party with your mates and your partner and then imagine this shit happening. I mean, a fuckin rave is pretty much the opposite of a military target.
I'm thinking there's a lot of criticisms to make on both sides of this conflict and a lot of comments here are focusing on that and overlooking the fucking horror of this incident right here.
And in quality. Seems like a lot of food items are using cheaper ingredients.
Oh, that's okay then!
Anyone got any idea why they are doing this? Seems a bit extreme.
I am still furious about Brexit on a personal level. Freedom of movement was amazing. It meant that I could just decide to go live and work in an EU country whenever I wanted. I had previously used this to spend a couple of years in Spain and maybe a year in France. I'd been planning a move to Portugal when Brexit took this away from me. All those opportunities gone because of dumb fuckers who didn't even realise we had them. Ignorant bigoted wankers. Goes without saying I voted remain. I'd be delighted to rejoin, and if it means we adopt the euro that's fine with me. It won't happen for at least a decade though, and at my age that'll be too late for me.
Yeah same here. I used to comment on reddit multiple times a day, I comment on Lemmy maybe once or twice a week. There's just not as much here that inspires me. It's okay, though, and I'm reading more books.
Do they want to burn her at the stake for witch craft like it's fucking 1724
That is a bit further down the path they've started down with criminalising abortion. They've got to decriminalise violence against women before they can actually start burning them. They're getting there, though.
It's after school, which is a smart move - there are probably some working single parents who are delighted to have a couple of hours of free child care.
I'd watch the prankster-drone strike channel though.
The really surprising thing here is the implication that trump can read.
I mean, people paid to attend trump 'university'. There are always plenty of fools who will buy stupid shit. I kind of feel sorry for the students though. Most people are pretty young at university age and many are still forming their perspectives. Getting away from home and meeting new people is an important part of this. Plenty of people from conservative families go away to uni and start to see that they've been brought up on bullshit. This is an attempt to stop that from happening - the 'anti-woke' shit will attract more conservative students which will reduce the chance that any of them will encounter different views and cultures so they stay in their ignorance bubble. Don't want little Johnny or Jane coming home from school an anarchist! It's sad for the students though who will come away in massive debt with a useless degree and have less opportunity for healthy change.
Yeah, it's a shit-ridden ad hole.
Yeah, and you can't use karma as a good metric for determining relevance or accuracy. I contributed ten years of mostly fairly good quality posts but my highest rated was a joke about gangbangs.
Sure, but that's not a solution to food insecurity.
We agreed?
Yeah, this IPO will probably go just fine and a bunch of wankers will make a bunch of money. That's what it's all about, after all.
A while back round where I live a guy was burned to death by a mob of his neighbours because people were saying he was a pedophile. Turned out he had only been taking photos of kids vandalising his garden. Oops.
Get a stick and kill it!
I don't think he's capable of just shutting the fuck up. Like his daddy trump, it's physically impossible for him to stop gibbering out bullshit.
Yeah, right now I got a big meaty spider with a neat little web up in my corner near the ceiling. She wants to chill there and eat flies and I'm cool with that. But the moment she starts getting frisky and scampering around the room is when she's getting evicted. Rules be rules.
Sounds kind of like my experience when I ended up in Spain teaching English to a class of fifteen 7 and 8 year old Spanish girls. My Spanish was terrible, their English wasn't great, it was carnage. Eventually I more work teaching adults and learned Spanish but it was a messy time.
I agree that there are some crimes so horrible that the offenders no longer deserve to live. The trouble is that I don't trust police and the courts to correctly identify the guilty all of the time. Until there's a system that can prove guilt with 100% accuracy we shouldn't have a death penalty.
Isn't most of that $80 billion in the form of weaponry ordered from US manufacturers? Or maybe I've misunderstood. I thought much of the cash hasn't really left America.
But yeah, musk needs to be stopped. No one person should have so much power, it makes a joke of democracy.
I'd completely forgotten that we all discovered the president has a nasty little mushroom dick. I'd actually manage to put the image of that man's malformed cock out of my mind. You just reminded me. Bastard.
Fentanyl is dangerous because it's so strong that the difference between a survivable dose and one that's fatal is very small. But the drug itself when properly administered isn't harmful and has therapeutic use.
However people with opiate addictions will use pretty much anything to prevent them getting sick, including stuff that can have horrible health consequences. Krokodil comes to mind, or temazepam jellies, but I'm sure there are other examples. Thank fuck I'm clean now.
I'm guessing it'll do pretty well, at least initially. There's got to be a whole lot of investors out there who just want to get in on the new big tech IPO and still jump in. I'm not convinced the WSB crew will really move the dial. Yeah it'd be an amusing and salutary lesson if the IPO shits the bed but I can't see it happening. I'm no expert tho!
Yeah, I just had an email inviting me to participate in the IPO. I'm not a US resident though so that won't be happening.
I would add to this that anyone doing ketamine should not do it in the bath, which seems to be what happened here. The same happened to someone I knew, she drowned in the tub.
Doesn't seem fair that some people get paid so well for fucking up so badly.
Yeah but I'm on there taking a piss against my work van so I'm prepared to forgive it a lot.
Really? Wow, that's high grade scum.
Yeah, same here. I'm not nearly as active here as I was on reddit, but there's not as much going on here and activity feeds itself. It's fine, I read more books.
I live in the UK, I've only ever driven manuals. I know one or two people with automatics, wouldn't fancy having one myself though. I feel like the manual shift gives me more control.
Europe isn't depending on the US for their defense. The countries in Europe have their own militaries and two - three if you count Russia - are nuclear armed. They just don't have as high a percentage military spending as the US does. Many of them prioritise stuff like healthcare for their populations.
Interestingly, the answer from bard sounds like it could be true. I don't know shit about fluid dynamics but it seems pretty plausible.
Or fashion bow ties from their testicles. . ?
TBF the Romans used to use lead as a sweetener all the time. While it can't have done them much good it can't have been immediately fatal or they'd have stopped. If it was intended as a sweetener in this case someone must have seriously fucked up the dosage. And I'd have thought they'd go for cheaper and easier ways to make the product taste sweeter, like aspartame or saccharine.
As a British person who spent several years living and working in EU countries before brexit and is now unable to - I don't think I'll ever stop being furious at the ignorant bigoted fucks who voted away the wonderful freedom of movement we shared with our neighbours. Useless slack-jawed gibbering wankers.
