  No, why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds about right. I’d seen “slot machines” (we call em poker machines or “the pokies”) more times than I can remember before I was 18.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon eats lunch alone⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, you’ve got a point, but because you’re a cunt nobody’s taking you seriously

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But yes.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, radioactive isotopes are formed in supernovae, so it’s really just solar power from a different sun, right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Het Pijnstillersparadijs: Europese Zelfbeheersing vs. Amerikaanse Pillenfeest⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID). It will reduce inflammation and the associated pain. If your pain is not caused by inflammation then you should talk to a pharmacist about what the best analgesic is for you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you have what it takes to become a geologist?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Mitch Hedberg jokes while high is a pretty smart move. Either that or you’re the only person who finds them funny and end up looking like an idiot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cereal⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost certainly not. It’s common in some communities for people to write their own image transcriptions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon wants to play a game⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  True, zip ties would also fit in that category

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon wants to play a game⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d go for jumpers, tape, and a tarp. Using the car battery makes it seem like your car battery died. Rope would also make it creepy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon practices time management⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I watched it instead of doing an assignment in high school. Made a lot of sense and little difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Povertymaxxed and bolognapilled⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Spot on!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Povertymaxxed and bolognapilled⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Worse still is the pronunciation of “bologna”. How. Just how. None of you seppos have the right to tell me about how I pronounce “herbs” or “pecans”. Then again, our pronunciation of “lieutenant” is messed up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TIL we have a cricket team⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like Australia did this to the field hockey world. North-western European countries like Norway and Denmark seem to love the sport, but we had the top spot for quite a few years. Barely anyone in Australia gave a single shit. Because everyone plays soccer, rugby, cricket or Aussie rules. Kinda sucked as a hockey player.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never Forget⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The prosecutor went on to have a pretty successful career and I think had a role in Obama’s administration. She basically said “I’m sorry your son killed himself” but never admitted to having a part in his death.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Woman Made Her Home Inside a Grocery Store’s Rooftop Sign, Police Say⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So? Who snitched?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And so he spake unto them⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m always kinda impressed when people can fill silence with a lot of words without actually managing to say anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Push to lower Australia's compulsory voting age to 16 as advocate says youngsters feeling 'disenfranchised'⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The push is to lower the voting age to 16. Voting is compulsory, hence the headline. Plus, I doubt making it optional until 18 would change many people’s minds on whether or not we should lower the voting age.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nerding out in group is fun tho⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait wait wait what? This sounds interesting. Please elaborate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I had some that looked exactly like this⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun fact: you don’t need a DA for these*, so they are a hell of a lot cheaper to install. *Subject to jurisdiction

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't read it⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know a guy like this. He’s a great guy, very competent, gives up his time for his community. Drives his Audi like a cunt though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It seems so simple⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Surely you’ll get terrible chromatic aberration. That’s got to be the only reason it’s never been made commercially available.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plummeting interest rate⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Now there’s a kind of open relationship I can get behind!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plummeting interest rate⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry, I heard asbestos was toxic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plummeting interest rate⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy is like Reddit, but with an even greater concentration of Linux and FOSS nerds, so the likelihood is extremely low.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We've invented some silly concepts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s rare and valuable and necessary, that’s why we should only be allowed one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the U.S., what exactly are we supposed to do when an ambulance, with its sirens on, approaches from behind?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had some training in driving an emergency vehicle and I’ve been in the passenger’s seat a few times, so I know that the one thing the ambulance driver wants is predictability. Do whatever you can to safely get out of their way. Usually that means moving over to the side of the road and slowing down, but if it’s really slow traffic you might have to stop. Whatever you do, don’t stop while you’re in their way.

  Tldr: stay calm and use your common sense.
