just being crushed and thrown in landfill.

oh god, that’s how they’re going to do the fucking tax writeoffs , isn’t it?

Discussing the historical accuracy of the Odyssey is like discussing the historical accuracy of ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’.

So here’s this giant wooden horse. And we … put our soldiers in there to cause massive damage

I’m assuming (op is) male, so (he has) a mountain to climb anyway, […] and probably find similar success

The game is rigged as fuck

and I can’t really message one on a dating app and be like “yea I just wanna fuck you”.

I mean… Isn’t that the point of dating apps? I’m assuming you’re male, so you have a mountain to climb anyway, but you can treat the people in wheelchairs you find on there the same way you treat other people and probably find similar success.

where the fuck are you that it’s friday today?

It’s the same thing as the Covid subsidiaries. Covid subsidiaries were meant to keep people’s lives roughly similar during the pandemic. Businesses jizzed that money everywhere, and when they ran out, they fired a shitload of people, and blamed the subsidiaries; the actual fault was them jizzing money everywhere.

The AI can lead to some efficiency gains. Rich people are using it as an excuse to fire everybody

Ukrainian source, so it might be biased but…

“Come on bro. Just give up, let’s go home. You did enough”

Just got arrested for a supposed DWI even though I blew a 0.0000000. Don’t cops need to read your Miranda rights to you? I asked for a blood or hair follicle test and I was denied. WTH is happening?

… did you get radicalised? :P

It’s difficult to discern between the people praying on young adults because they want to exploit young adults or they themselves are immature (or other legal but distasteful paradigm) and those praying on young adults because they are settling on the nearest legal target.

I think the current views are sufficient. These relationships are frowned on but legal. It’s not impossible for these relationships to be mutually beneficial for both parties but it is unlikely. Having them be legal but frowned upon helps raise caution when it might be abusive or call attention to that to the parties involved.

I have no comments on the love life of Mr Di Caprio.

seek out friendships or romantic relationships with young adults?

So, there are kinds of people you hear about culturally that despite whatever age bracket they are in, for some reason, keep wanting to go out with people that have just come out of high school, and are 18+.

For SOME reason, they KEEP trying to get into these kinds of relationships.

I wonder why that is? Not “oh, this random person I encountered and have good chemistry with happens to be lower age than me, but my previous and next partners have been a roughly sensible age for me”. No, these people keep going for that age range specifically; people who are legally adults, but only just.

I wonder what motivates these people to do that? 🤔

I’m pretty sure he went by making the broad lists of banned shit, and then ran a query on all the users that came up with saying that stuff.

I’m also on there, so I feel significant.

Or, he hates modern heavy metal, Devin Townsend and Colin Marston in particular.

sure. One can always make a better tool.

History. The first international match was between Scotland and England. The UK is a country made up of 4 constituent countries, thus, for some sporting events, due to previous national organisations being formed, and inertia compete separately and against each other.

This is actually to their detriment, as there have been Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish players that would have helped “the national team” but ended up in their home country’s team, like Gareth Bale or in the past, I think, George best.

It gets interesting with other sports, where N. Ireland joins with the all Ireland team.

Good news for you and Britain though, in the Olympics they compete as team GB. AFAIK the Scots contribute nicely with their curling prowess.

That is still more a problem of people and tribalism.

I don’t agree with the rest of your post particularly, but this is the central theme. People will fuck anything up and run it into the ground by virtue of being people, and groups of people fuck things up faster.

Fediverse is no silver bullet; nothing is. The monkey that touches the technology and tools is the source of their misuse, and the monkey never changes, although the tool does.

Well, they have chat control. Use that to violate the privacy of the people running it to protect the children.

PEGI 13

Depends on how it’s meant to work. If it amplifies the actual heart’s movement, it might not do much. They usually have a power supply, which will make it keep doing what it does.

So, if it’s a 100% artificial heart, it will do what it does. If it’s there to force the heart to beat without the heart’s natural movements, it will keep force it to beat the same as before, same as if you pass electricity through any muscle.

I don’t think Iran have conducted an attack on the United States yet, so I guess it’s BS that Iran struck first.

Please let me know if Iran did bomb somewhere in New Jersey or Wyoming or whatever.

Kubuntu + pink.

so no.

Is this really not a Linux distro?

Over a decade later and people still don’t believe us! PonyOS is not a Linux distribution - it’s also not a BSD, or a Hurd, or a Minix, or a Solaris!
