we is doomed!

This way is at least a lot easier to convince idiots not to vote GOP

That seems to be impossible.

sometimes I wonder why I bother coming to Lemmy

then i stumble upon high quality posts like this one and the informed discourse that follows and my faith is reassured.

is that John Malkovitch?

Hopefully Australia pays attention and also joins up

reading through a couple of comment sections in the FT and WSJ and so many commenters ise AI for financial analysis, i was… surprised

Before the net was widespread, I was 'pirating" for my Amiga 1000. This is why local Computer User Groups existed :). That and your local BBS.

I’m waiting for Fedora 45, or the Asha release as I call it.

To expect all parties to act with integrity is naive, expect all parties to act maliciously and with incompetence and design the system to cope that way.

To be able to override judges and juries, that’s a true horror that compromises the legal system, or if you must, at least have it that pardons are only able to be recommended by the President and 75% of Congress must also agree.

Amen my incel 4 chan bro.

First gym i went to at 19 (am now 58) had 2x stationary bikes for people to warm up on before lifting, that was it. Now… an ocean of barley used cardo shit and a dumbbell rack that’s doesn’t go high enough, one flat bench and teo smith machines :(

much better with an old school lat pull down that whacked you on the head adjusting the weights as a right of passage :)

hahaha that was awesome

same way we live now? ( m and f couple)

debt free

electricity cost is near $0 (have a solar systems that grid feeds surplus electricity we’re paid for)

have an ecar and ebike we charge of said solar, so make our own fuel

live in a small rural community, lots of people DIY and grow their own food and swap/sell

have a free bus once a day to the nearby bigger city, use it on occasion for dentist/doctors appointments, or a day out in town

have a small acreage on the edge of town and get as much free beef as we want for letting the local farmer use it

have dozens of fruit trees around our house

my gf is a Chef who loves growing her own veg and fruit and cooks superb meals

have three years of expenses as cash

pay for water and local government taxes which is fine, get clean drinking water and the roads etc are repaired and we get a “free” library and “free” swimming pool out of it

fuck this guy

enshitifcation is the inevitable consequence of “up and to the right”, Lemmy, Mastodon and the activity pub protocol don’t suffer that.

this is the lady bankrolling the One Nation Party, (ONP) our MAGA movement here in Australia. In an ironic coincidence to Qatar, she donated a private jet to the party leader to use. The party is widely popular and could be in Government soon

We are a proud nation of stupid people.

i didn’t, I’m on Mastodon and would never consider Bluesky.

nothing ? he was an actor on a few tv shows, he seem’d a nice guy but then so is my neighbour.

I guess I find it a little depressing that there’s any reverence for actors, they are… acting. The local plumber, nurse etal do more good in the workd.

Jonas Salk however, mucho respecto.

Didn’t Rubio arrange it ?

I came across my 25 year old still working (presumably because who knows these days) Etymotic buds in the lil case in my draw the other day, and had a sad face :(

I remember bugging them, paid a high price and justified it by telling my self they will last decades. Little did I know much of that time would be spent im their case, in the draw :(

i am reminded of Anetta Crosby in Afterlife, she was not a fan of the diarrhea

What would Pentti Linkola say about this I wonder :)
