- Comment on Is it normal that I have this inner conflict of not knowing where I belong? 1 week ago:
I wonder what environments Americans dream of like maybe more like large roads or suburban type environments. Maybe more rural/warm nature type environments. (I guess it also heavily depends where you are from like city vs rural)
Here I am, as an American, dreaming of smaller roads and walkable cities.
Grass is always greener, maybe.

With the help of gravity!

The only reason I started using cases is because they made the latest Pixels so low friction that they refuse to stay put on most surfaces.

Maybe better to link the source article on this one.

I’m thrilled that the BBC has finally commissioned a programme about AI and how it will affect your mum.

They run the closest mirrors to me. Would be a shame to see them go.

- Comment on sus 1 month ago:
It was good and had potential but was cancelled way too early. The finale was a montage to try and wrap the story up. Very frustrating.

The only real change was how open those assholes felt they could be. Doubt they increased or declined at all. They just got platformed.

That’s a good thumbnail.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 1 month ago:
Kind of. All you need is fat and lye. Some experimenting would need to be done but I’m somewhat confident I could figure it out.
And you could make a living selling it. Assuming you can convince people of its benefits.

I’d make some fucking soap.

Most people in Lemmy seem go be lusting for the worst case scenario. They’ll only be satisfied when they see mass graves.
- Comment on What actually came first? The chicken or the egg? 2 months ago:
Another way to frame this is that, you can’t just magically create a singular being that’s a new species because it wouldn’t have anything to breed with. So it’s a long term gradual change of a complete population into what we know as a chicken today.
- Comment on Why dont more people live in smaller communities , appart from economic opportunity (WFH is making it possible if not prefferable too) 2 months ago:
Also a bunch of other issues with small town living like lack of privacy/anonymity, entertainment, restaurants, government services, etc… And these problems get more severe the smaller the community.
But people really did spread out to smaller towns during COVID. Property values went crazy in a lot of small towns around me.

How does that work?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
There is no one thing. Democrats have floundered for… decades. They did a thing during Obama but largely as a party they’ve done nothing for most of America except maintain.
Then there’s MAGA which is kind of a new thing. It goes beyond ideology. I’d argue there is no ideology, beyond maybe a few wedge issues that are just used to build ranks. To me it kind of looks like useful idiots being wrangled by those that control information. But the idiots are at the top and the bottom of the chain so it’s confusing.
People also got soft, complacent, and poorer. Lots of people just completely checked out of their civic duties. Either because they can’t be bothered, or because they’ve got more important things to worry about.
There’s probably also lots of other topics leading into the current political climate that I haven’t even touched on. Trying to explain it away as one thing doesn’t really work.

PorkBun has been pretty great to me for years. Good prices, lots of TLDs, good support, and their site is pretty straight forward.

- Comment on Do you think the US will actually log its national parks? 2 months ago:
There’s so much other federal land that can be logged before going for the tourist attractions. It would just politically look bad if they did. I’d say probably not.
- Comment on What does a week of groceries look like to you? 2 months ago:
I’ll usually have 2 or 3 meals in mind that’ll carry me for the week. I’ll make something that will have leftovers (stews, stir fries, etc), and other things that can be easily repeated (fried eggs, bagels, sandwiches, produce for salads, etc).
Once I get to the store things can change a bit according to what’s available or what looks good.
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 10th anniversary will bring updates and DLC for both games 3 months ago:
Would be really cool if they could actually fix the game so it’s playable though. Tired of all the simulation limitations and the fact that once you reach a certain size, the city just doesn’t work.
