They came together frustratingly faster than Dallas, but nice to see two young teams making the post-season.

Seriously, he needs to "no not like that" this shit so far that the Republicans have no choice but to reign in their bullshit.

This feels relevant

An XKCD comic where two developers lament the existence of 14 competing standards. They propose creating an ultimate standard. There are now 15 competing standards.

Sometimes the mods of overlapping communities will discuss merging, usually initiated when one of them notices there is little engagement in their own. But the general consensus in the Lemmy admin/mod population is that having overlapping communities on different instances is a net benefit.

Declare him to be a Clear and Present Danger to the Union. Now it's an official act to safeguard against the danger. So take official action, then wait and see if anybody prosecutes after the fact to prove it wasn't an official act.

It really depends on what sub(s) you visit. Some subs didn't have a lot of mobile users to begin with, so they didn't see much change in their core active members.

The default sort/filter for the front page there is trash now. I typically see the same things hovering there for days.

Last week of the 2024 regular season. The Western conference is all locked up, with Houston hosting Dallas and Seattle hosting San Diego. Interestingly almost that's the same matchups that we have for those 4 this weekend (San Diego is hosting tomorrow)! In the East NEFJ and NOLA will be competing for the #1 seed while Chicago and OGDC will be competing for the #3 seed. Though in my amateur opinion the current rankings will hold into the playoffs.

The PRS SE NF3 is a distinct guitar in the PRS lineup. The heart of this guitar is a trio of PRS Narrowfield pickups, a first for the SE Series. Supporting these pickups is a poplar body, 22-fret bolt-on maple neck, and the choice of either a rosewood or maple fretboard. The SE NF3 is a versatile workhorse guitar that is fun to play and hard to put down. The Narrowfield DD (Deep Dish) “S” pickups are made with taller bobbins to fit more winds and extra metal pieces in between the magnets for a more focused, powerful tone.

Wow. Talk about professional gaslighting. Not enough people are aware that the Obama-era FTC enacted the policy because AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon were all caught throttling Netflix and prioritizing their own competing services.

But the National Guard is under Federal chain of command, so Pentagon can activate the Texas National Guard right out from under Abbott. Which honestly is probably exactly what Abbott wants so he can roll around whinging about the big mean Federal government usurping the state's resources.

I believe that Google wanted in-app purchases in Fortnite to go through Play Store so that Google would get 30%. And Epic wanted to setup their own in-app billing and keep it all.

All those spiders that you're never more than 10 feet from have started using fitness wearables, and with 8 arms each that's a lot of bluetooth nearby.
