id argue even if you aren't a US citizen it's still ethical to fight back

oh I didn't know that, thanks for the update!

so glad to see they thought through their amazing plan before affecting people's already difficult lives 😃

I just realized, since "computers" are exempt, we're gonna see a lot more products with screens in it for no reason.

At some point you should give them some more freedom. That's very restrictive on the connections they can make with their peers as they won't learn the cultural norms.

You're not benefitting them in the long term, they will be stunted in their grasp of the Internet, which is very important in today's landscape. They will also go behind your back to access the internet with NO restrictions rather than you being able to block some of the worst stuff and letting them access normal stuff.

Granted if they're under 10 that's fine, but consider opening up as they get older.

 

since everyone is now legally female*, I technically am now cis and Elon is a trans male who transitioned 6 weeks after conception.

At least for a while. I'm not sure if the Republicans reversed their braindead decision yet.

*Obligatory, technically it's legally non binary but they only give male or female as an option and genetics are confusing AF and chromosomes don't matter..?

Lemmy doesn't have information about IPL machines. I would've used Lemmy if I could.

I like [email protected]. Don't really understand anything but it's kinda cool to look at, which I think is the whole vibe

I met someone online from Indiana a few years ago. Thought they meant India (they had a typo on the word) and they got confused when I asked how it was.

That's the only experience with Indiana I've had that wasn't immediately forgotten.

I low-key googled it to make sure it's actually a state.

 

Why YSK: If you use a VPN, (which you likely have at some point) you have probably encountered this:

really annoying! Today I had enough and googled a way around it.

Here's the instance that i used today as an example:
https://redlib.ducks.party/

github repo for more information & other instances:
https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib

It's not possible to interact with any of the information like replying or upvoting, but for simply getting a niche question answered it's pretty helpful.

Not fully related, but I would only recommend it for information that isn't on lemmy, it's best to try to move content over to here if possible.
I kinda want to make some communities for stuff I have to use reddit for, but I mainly use Voyager (mobile) which doesn't have all the options to operate a server and I wouldn't want to get in trouble if I fail to moderate it properly or something. Also I have no experience.

 

I feel SO dumb right now 😭

I was watching a counterstrike video (I don't play CS) and the youtuber said "...who is one of the best North America players..." while a statistics page showed kill/death, win/loss, etc. But it also showed "NA". This along with the verbal "North America" was enough for the very lazy neurons in my brain finally make a basic connection that those two things are connected. I always assumed it just meant "somewhere we don't have an abbreviation for" or "location private" or something.

I use it literally everywhere out of habit, I got made fun of for using it when pulling out of my moms driveway once lol

The only reason I won't possibly use it is when I'm in a turn only lane at a red light and don't want to listen to it for 3 minutes

Most people I find only use it 75% of the time at best.
I'm 2.5 years into driving and am curious if it's just what semi-new drivers do or if I'm the odd one out.

 

This is a discord server for the reddit page of nail polish. Yeah it's weird.
Honestly I'm mostly in it for the frog emojis lol

Not important at all but I just wanted to share

 

I'll explain the joke bc I don't want anyone to take it the wrong way:

ExplanationThe joke is literally that her name when pronounced kinda sounds similar to "Anomalocaris" (which is the name of the animal).
Thats the entirety of the punchline.

I wonder how high OOP was when they discovered that lmao
