Checks out, that’s about what a house cost in 1979.

$14.99 in 1979? Christ. You could just about buy a house for that.

Wouldn’t you be least likely to die if you were, say, in a coma, under 24/7 medical surveillance in a hospital, or some other similar circumstance? Being out in public at all raises the probability of dying, so how would you ever go out? You wouldn’t be able to use a knife, or even scissors. You’d never be able to interact with anyone online - there’s a non-zero chance that someone takes such offense with what you say that they find where you live and come hunt you down, so it’s safer - infinitesimally so, but safer - to just not go online at all.

What I’m getting at is, the scenario you’ve laid out with the bounds you’ve set just means you’d have the worst life imaginable. At least you’d be alive, though?

Really impossible to say because, to reiterate the point the post you’re replying to made, the media is not covering protests like it was in 2017. There have been multiple protests in all 50 states, some very large, but the word just isn’t getting out about them.

Well… 1m^3 of rice, then the next day 1m^3 of beans, then the next day 1m^3 of potatoes, etc. - you might not like what you’re eating for the first few days, but I think you could pretty quickly accumulate enough ingredients in massive quantities to make some pretty nice meals, even if that limitation does exist.

Get together with your neighbor, replicate the parts of each other’s replicator. Repeat this daily for a bit. Exponential growth. Give it a month or so, then just go ham and make everything you want, maybe after renting a warehouse to keep them all in.

It’s a hex placed on their family line in generations past, for some unknown sleight committed against a witch or something. They’re cursed to forever burn any food they try to cook.

Maybe the dad doesn’t know how to cook, either. It’s just a whole family tree of dads who can’t cook.

9/11/2001 is the date the simulation was turned on. Everything prior to that is just programmed memories and fabricated history.

Which sounds worse:

• From the late 1900s
• From last century

Wouldn’t it be easier to have stools available that a kid could pull up to the sink to use a normal height sink, than to have sinks that are exclusively useful by kids?

The bathroom argument that you made is akin to saying that folks shouldn’t feel entitled to bike lines / safe sidewalks because our cities were designed for cars and sidewalks and bike lanes are expensive for a tiny percent of the moving population.

Bike lanes are installed by the government using taxpayer funding. Bathrooms (in non-public spaces) are installed by private companies. Difference in expectations there, for sure.

Some of these seem fine, some of them not so fine. Letting kids run around at a restaurant? I’d call that not fine. Other people are paying to be there and they probably don’t want to deal with your kids running around and past their table. The concerns about servers tripping over them are real, even if it’s not actually happening. I suspect the servers would prefer not to have to dodge someone’s kids to prevent that from happening.

The fountain? Not a problem, no one was being inconvenienced there, no one was paying to be there and having their time disrupted. They weren’t creating a dangerous situation.

The barbecue? Not a problem, they were invited, presumably by someone who understands what they’re getting into, and they can be uninvited, or not invited next time if it’s a problem.

Bottom line is, there’s places where it’s appropriate to let your kids run around and be wild, and there’s places where it’s not, and if your kids aren’t capable of not doing it in places where it isn’t appropriate, that’s a problem.

Just look at any public restroom, where the sinks are too high for them to reach

Well, maybe your two-year-old isn’t entitled to low sinks in a public restroom not specifically designed for children (e.g. at a school)? That shit costs money, why would they install low sinks just so kids who amount for a tiny percentage of the users can use them without parental assistance?

Depends on the puzzle; it’s certainly possible to design Sudoku puzzles that necessitate guessing, but most do not. It’s possible you’re just not familiar with some of the more complex ways to make deductions.

Maybe check this list - it could be that your puzzle requires some of the more advanced techniques that you aren’t using.

Is that a reddit-ism? Isn’t it more just pop culture that exists equally both on and off of Reddit?

Your coloration took an innocent map of Europe and somehow made the thumbnail look dirty. Good job!

Ah yes, Android, the obscure non-conformist indie option. 🙄

It’d be cheaper alright, but not for the passengers.

The default view for communities is Local, which will only show communities on your instance. Given you’re on lemmy.world, that’s a considerable number, but if you click ‘All’ at the top of the communities page, you’ll also see communities outside of your instance (but again only ones that your instance knows about, which amounts to any that someone from your instance has subscribed to). Again, you’re on LW, so this is a significant percentage.

If this is a niche that doesn’t exist currently (or you can’t find a place for it), you could create such a community.

“Why didn’t you share it with the rest of the family, you selfish little shit?”

Ooh, this is rad - thanks for the link!
