ok but, trump actually directly said he plans on being a dictator... it's really the most important election in much of american history...

actually, probably yeah

yes

"potentially endangering lives" is your main takeaway from a predatory online mental health corporation being held accountable for abusing their patients.
meaning, you're licking some corporate boots.
... you also missed the part where mental health corporations deceiving and abusing patients is definitely endangering lives.

no distractions...
one metaphor i heard is, holding a program in your head is like building a house of cards, every time a phone rings or something breaks your concentration, you have to rebuild the house

the bidet is an attachment to your toilet, not a separate thing

yep! with a check signed "Jared Kushner"

that's pretty common on reddit

everyone hates it, and no, you don't know what people are about to say all the time.

'or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States'

well see, the thing is, the presidency is both civil and military... it doesn't say "and/or" so clearly it's an exclusive 'or' (aka xor) and exempt...

autoexec.bat killed quite a bit in 92

it's higher because people use pitbulls for dog fights, etc... if you abuse an animal it's more likely to attack someone.
if you look at stats, getting killed by a rotweiler or a german Shepard isn't that far off.
which would be the next two "tough dude" cool pets...
not to mention, pitbulls aren't even a breed, really... there's plenty of pit cousins that would be the new pitbulls... plus half breeds and whatnot...
my solution is to just require all small children carry revolvers... super simple, and those dogs will think twice before attacking them.

it's not targeted, it's just that drugs seem like a better idea the more miserable you are to begin with... so divested locales have it worse.

also, the poorer you are the better drug dealing seems.

yeah, this really blew up in her face

what's really cool is this plus telomerase will give us a youth serum

in California, all gift cards $10 or less can be redeemed for cash.

you may have to argue with employees and management, but its the law... it's also a misdemeanor for the cashier to refuse it to you.

still good news

wow, you're a real piece of shit.

i was just explaining what you asked to have explained to you

mad flurry off comments, doesn't make any sense.

i see by your closing statements that caring about your fellow human isn't your main motivation and it is, indeed, all about worshipping corporations and polishing boots with your tongue.

i hope your new years helps you grow some thicker skin

telomeres are cells' biological clock... they get shorter with each division, and is the general cause of your body breaking down, round the 80's.
telomerase and other chemicals can reset those telomeres, but also cause the body's existing precancerous cells to go malignant. (telomeres also limit cancer cell growth, and creating telomerase is one of the mutations required for full on cancer)
so, if we can regrow cells telomeres without causing cancer... we have a youth serum.
but there's already other telomerase gene therapy in development anyways...

fuck u/spez

they're afraid they'll enjoy it...

posts celebrating the Hamas massacre of October 7th minutes after it began

ah, so they all knew of the rapes minutes after the attack began and were celebrating it...
and it was rape, in particular, that they were celebrating....
thanks for clarifying that

no

it’s not safe to stay out to shovel until Wednesday (when the temps and windchill will finally be above negative)

i grew up in michigan and, yeah i shoveled snow in negative temps when i was 12... it's safe IF you bundle up properly.
some long johns, or even sweat pants, two pair of jeans... boots... (you can put breadbags over your socks if they leak or you don't have boots...
tons of layers of shirts, a ski mask, and gloves...
no problem... you want the outermost layer to be waterproof/windproof...
trench coats are actually quite functional and not just for murderers hiding guns...
and the more you shovel, the more you warm up...
of course, if the wind is real bad it gets kinda pointless, but you can kinda throw the snow with the wind and it'll fly away... (unless there's not one prevailing direction of wind)
ummm... road salt is pretty important... sand helps too....
also the layers help when you fall down on the ice...

what past technologies?
email is federated... every corporation eventually joined in and runs an email server, email is still independent....

i would really like some examples because i've seen the claim before.

5 more...

makes sense...
personally, i see this as a flaw in federation in general. Even diaspora's end goal, originally, was everyone running their own instances.

the biggest hurdle though, is getting people to care. Which happens temporarily, every once in a while... like when reddit fucked everyone over with api changes.

i tried to get everyone i know on diaspora when that was happening... got one person to try it for a second. At least with lemmy i don't have to know anyone else on here, so it just feels like the better og reddit anyways...

this is already the case, except i can eventually reach a human that doesn't understand english, reading an english script....
at least the AI won't get frustrated and hang up on me.

well it is a much more direct approach than usual...

if they wanted to, they could

it was hard to believe anyone supported him before... but now it's surreal...
feels like a weird nightmare....

why not?

protests like that really just serve to raise awareness...
let's the government know people are very pissed, and let's other pissed citizens know they're not alone...
and makes unaware citizens aware of the problem...
it's a great start, but doesn't solve anything on its own

too soon...

Georgia boots are the shit...

related detroit news article: https://archive.ph/5IxSq

people who do that are found frequently... but if they're not completely dumb, they would be untraceable. (basically a burner phone)

i remember one guy, who eventually got caught anyways, had a swatting service where he used some aol service that would transcribe phone calls for the blind, and contacted them over tor...
i think it should be hard for cops to track people... it should be possible to defy the gov

e.g. if drumpf becomes dictator, it'll be good to have a way to escape...
