⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Speaker connected⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
I take my family to Kalahari every year, and multiple times we’ve connected to someone else and put The Fart Song on (at the request of my kids).

Also, lemme just give some love for The Chariot, great band, great album.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Winter is coming⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, F is just more accurate. I know you can use decimals, but I never see anyone post C temps as 20.2. It’s 20 or it’s 21, which is anywhere from 68-69.8F, expressed as 70. We’ve got a whole extra degree in there!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About to ruin your whole day⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Glad to hear they could pull it out. We had a cat that had diabetes, and we had to use a pill shooter to administer one of her meds. Unfortunately, my wife did it one time and didn’t notice that, in addition to the pill, the rubber tip came off and my cat swallowed it. I see it the next day, and by then she (cat, not wife) was ill, and it had moved into and lodged itself in her intestines. It was an incredibly rapid decline, so make sure we all get extra hugs in, you never know with these pets.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About to ruin your whole day⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
This is the way. You open it up and you’re introducing more chaos. Guess you’ll just need to be a little vigilant when the light comes on to make sure you’re not running into any other issues.

That being said, you can usually feel if there’s a problem. Or smell, but if you smell the problem it’s usually too late.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨my year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, had a good few years where we did a lot of Nos, we’re getting tanks of it from Bristol PA, $130 for a 20lber. I used to drive down, fill up two, and show up to a party and absolutely kill the mood. Went from loud people being silly to half of the partygoers up in a bedroom wonking out. I say that with a fondness too, it was silly.

And it went great with acid, k, and MDMA. I’d say K was the most frequent mixture for me, mainly because you could do nitrous and K, sober up for an hour, drink some Gatorade and a 5-hour energy, and you’re straight up good to go, it was almost disturbing, and it led to some abuse.

Those days are long gone, but I’ll never besmirch people exploring their brains. Just do it safely.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Chavs or posh and no in between. I am American and this is what I learned in social studies.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Being below average height is where it’s at. I rarely bump my head on anything. I’m a smaller target for gunfire (am American). I have never had an issue finding clothes or shoes in my size. The world is built for me. And I guess 5’8 ain’t too short, but it’s below average, and so I’ve accepted it.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I dunno, I’m American and I can tell them apart. I can essentially understand the Brits, kinda understand the Scots, almost understand the Irish, and the Welsh are completely unintelligible.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Football.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I live in Jersey (New), but a friend of ours is from Scotland, our kids are all the same age. He and his family (when they were over for the World Cup) are all just super easy to shoot the shit with. Soft-spoken and an accent makes them difficult to understand at times, but cool people. Got nothing but good things to say about the Scots based off my limited experience.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's the worst possible view for a hotel⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, when I was younger places like this were my jam. I wasn’t there to hang out in a hotel room, and so the less accommodating the better. Clean was important, but that’s about it. Make it small, make it have no view, no TV, etc.

I am no longer young.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Heh Heh Good Job Boys⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Do the medals mean anything? I did the military thing and have some medals and ribbons, and they each have specific meaning. Anyone can look at a picture and go to a wikipedia article and basically see when I served, what I did, etc. Are these just decoration? The US military is pretty active (unfortunately). I don’t exactly see North Korea getting out there and fighting wars in the same fashion, so as to warrant such well decorated members.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I love being awake and hanging out with my kids. But if they’re at school and I have a free hour, I’m taking a nap, because they definitely make me tired.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, I work a lot some days. I’m an independent contractor so it’s my work, and it ebbs and flows. Some days I work from 730-9, 10-2, then 5-11. On those days, I choose to nap from 2-3pm or so. I could do other stuff, but nothing trumps a nap.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Min wage in most states is so sad⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, then just their spouses will work for the oil, tech, or war companies.

I do agree with everything you said, I just also know they’ll slime their ways to paydays one way or another.

Where I live, lawyers go on to be judges, preside over landmark cases, leave the bench, and go work in that industry for the people they presided in favor of. We live in joke world.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are you going to never forget 9/11 this year? What are you never forgetful for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
It doesn’t have the same ring, you know? And 911 being the emergency number here in the US, it was a real double whammy for us way back then.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tasty!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
That’s barely enough room for spaghetti! I won’t stand for this!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tasty!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The fork is the part that bothers me the most. So much handle, so little tine.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tasty!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Wouldn’t be Lemmy without someone going off the rails in the comments.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨non issue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Was with you til the end there. I use the personal blocklist extension, and I got it specifically for pinterest. It’s grown to include others, but Pinterest was the beginning.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cat vs Dog⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, my wife scooped up two black cats off the street and brought them home 12 years ago. One, Rudi (RIP) was the temperamental one, she would come lay on your lap but if you brushed her too many times she’d get pissed off. The other, Bruce Willis, is the coolest motherfucker alive, a real credit to his namesake. Rudi might go as far as my porch, but Bruce is a neighborhood wanderer.

That being said, Bruce has been in fights with other animals many times sometimes winning, sometimes losing, always really loud and in the middle of the night and I have to wake up and sort things out. Rudi got in one fight because we forgot her on the porch. Poor Rudi. She would later swallow something and it killed her. She was a pain in the ass but we still loved her.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Woman refuses to pay restaurant bill⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Blame someone else for everything, probably.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Well, gonna be real gay when that transgender protagonist is now in a romantic scene with a dude.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I didn’t realize skeptical (sceptical) had North American (British) variations. That’s my learning for today!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Test your might⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Love the silverware up top, good piece of gear.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waiting and getting treated is better than waiting and going bankrupt⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I think wait times were better. And now they’re terrible, but what you say plays a big role. And as such, we’ve seen urgent care businesses (hate saying that) explode. There’s one every mile where I live, including pediatric urgent care. And I’m not complaining. I’ll complain maybe about costs, but the idea of this stepped-down, non-emergent care, is a great way to deal with the problem.

Now, make it free* (except I pay taxes already so just use those).
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Tis the season⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
My wife takes our kids frequently as well. I’m good for one trip a year, but in much more focused in my shopping than they are.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This crazy assassin character, who doesn't know what shampoo is, somehow would bother shaving her armpits⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
And you probably do a good job, just like Ford (although I’ve never seen a single star wars movie and it’s going to stay that way).
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wanna be a maelstrom in 1714 C.E.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Ha, very similar story for me, I don’t speak a lick of Italian. My grandmother wasn’t exactly into the affairs of her brothers and uncles and so I think she chose to insulate the grandkids. Fortunately she didn’t insulate us from fantastic cooking.

We mainly stayed in the NY/NJ/PA area, just like everybody else around here.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wanna be a maelstrom in 1714 C.E.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Hey, mine were criminals too, and they brought some of that classic Italian criminality to Scranton, Pittston, and Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, enough to have a lengthy Wikipedia article about it. Funny, because it’s not something you recognize at the family parties as a kid.

Simpler times.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wanna be a maelstrom in 1714 C.E.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, my ancestors are from Ireland and Italy. The Irish half escaped the famine and came here and procreated like it was going out of style. My family from Italy came over to escape the fascism (jokes on them). They brought with them the gabagool.
