I read AOC +3 as like a d&d style stat modifier.

I’ve been very loosely watching this race from here in Central Cali. Great job, guys! Here’s hoping Cuomo fucks off and goes and finds himself a job being a scarecrow.

It’s tacos and energy drinks.

Watch the infomercials until something remotely interesting starts.

Is this boomer shit really making the rounds again? This is so 2003.

E: downvote all you want; eat my ass, CIA

ColdFusion

I was there, 3,000 years ago

That is a problem, but not an intractable one. The first easy win would be to just stop wasting so much water. CA could be a lot more careful with water than it is by just leaning on industry and ag to cut wasteful water use harder than it leans on the suburbs. Don’t get me wrong, green lawns in our Mediterranean climate are a stupid waste too, but it pencils out to less than a percent of all water use, where ag and industry are both in the double digits.

Oh, okay. Hmm, yeah, that seems sus.

World day of protest II

This shit haunts me sometimes. I remember hearing somewhere that the Taliban actually offered to deliver OBL to the US if they would promise not to invade and we were like “get fucked, idiot”. How many people’s lives did we needlessly destroy, regardless of nationality, both in Iraq and Afghanistan? What else could have been bought besides misery with the nearly four trillion between those two wars?

Little known fact that the Nazis were at last turned back at Stalingrad by the wittiest picket sign made in the Soviet Union. The sign, which used a mock spelling of Hitler’s name, simply read “A doof, Hitler”. Many historians believe that the German military never fully recovered from this humiliation.

The IRL answer here is that it doesn’t matter if it actually makes money / creates value in the long run, it only matters if the investors think it will, or if the c-suite think the investors think it will, or if the current investors (looking to sell) think that future investors (looking to buy) think it will.

Go drink some water, pal. I thought it was a very well worded statement, and stripping it down like so really robbed it of a lot of its potency, imo. It’s fine to disagree with me, that’s your business, but to extrapolate that I consider this narrow quoting to be the injustice of injustices in this world is a little goddamn silly.

It depends; if it’s a game only I like, well, I bumblefuck my way through Baldur’s Gate an hour at a time after the kids go to bed, when I’m not shit posting or attacking a side project or stargazing. If the rest of the family likes it, my job for the rest of the day is to sit the fuck down and play the game or else.

It’s a damn injustice that they clipped that quote down to “racism”.

Remember when Gemini said that you should eat at least one small rock per day?

I’ve started the process of moving my communities and stuff, but I plan on continuing to post on .ee until it goes down. Btw, is there an easy way to check which instances a Lemmy/piefed instance is defederated from?

I’ve applied for .zip; is .sdf a more general purpose instance?

Yeah, I gave volunteering a good, long think because I’m mostly sure I’ve got the right proficiencies for it, but my plate’s already overflowing as it is. I like lemm.ee, but when I sat down and considered my priorities IRL, I am legitimately sorry to say that it didn’t make the cut. I guess everyone else did that same math.

I’m moving to both piefed and .zip
