  • I did not expect this much detail on this topic. There were discussions about detergents and such in another thread. And the logic is exactly the same.

    Dont ship water.

    (This needs to go in a Lemmy hall of fame)

  • Its all marketing, the powder v liquid is a fair consumer product debate (the different formats allow for different chemistry, but by weight/price, powerd is most efficent), but the pods for dish and clothes washers are meant to be as inefficent of a storage method as possible to get you to buy more product.

    The youtube channel Technology Connections has several hours of midwestern rants about how bad pods are.

  • We get it (and deserve it), but your preaching to the choir. The US residents of Lemmy are usually either socially active net-izens who are very aware of, and trying to act against of the shitshow unfolding in what ways they can, or fringe groups (see the tankie instances) who have been thrown off of enough mainstream platforms that they had to go make their own.

    Once todays vent session is done, we should focus on keeping constructive posts visible and discussed. (Stuff individuals or small groups can do to help our firends on the other side of the pond and ideas to try and course correct shit stateside)

    Im just trying to not be too pesimistic...

  • Place your bets on muskrat chickening out.

    Stewart is going to rip him a structurely superfluous behind.

  • Ok. Now we need a good bot bot.

  • Just any third place in general, they mostly died out during the last plague and are only starting to return to the world. If your looking for someone, go do interesting things in front of interesting people.

  • My immediate meat-space circles are aware of it and have stopped asking me WTH is wrong with my meme links in the group chats.

    I do not believe anyone else has an account.

  • But this isnt just IRS records, or stuff the government already has. Its legal discovery, your required to provide much more than just the stuff wealthy people are already good at hiding from the feds.

  • I find this personally insulting and hate this mentality. If the company isnt footing the bill, ill keep current and progress my skills how ever I like. In my case, homelab, which while not paying someone for a fancy piece of paper, has usefull skills and real services.

    Ahhhhh... People who think like this are why the Peter Principal exists...

  • If self-hosting and "Warning, some assembly required" isnt an issue, Matrix - Synapse. I spooled that up in my home lab recently and im slowly moving my group chats over to it.

  • Well, go down the list of succession. How far down do we need to go to have someone capable of thinking and breathing at the same time? We all knew Vance was an insurance policy, he would need to be included, or atleast have his impeachment drafted when the ink on Darth Cheeto's dries.

  • I do this for pants, and work gives me 4 shitty office polos each year so I have the same outfit every day, no brain power wasted understanding fashion or worrying about dress codes.

  • Salty with a hint of Carlin.

    He got very tired of peoples BS towards the end of his career, I hope Burr can keep up the energy, we sorta need it right now.

  • Its been three weeks... Three very long weeks...

  • Oh, good idea, which part? /s The part about the brutal indoctrination of the indiginous peoples in the new world, the part with the papacy in Rome was a bought position and caused war and strife in Europe for centuries, the crusades [checks notes] plural... "gosh yall did a lot of them", or the more recent pedo stuff.

    Which part of history of organizations and groups that use the bible as a core text should more people learn about?

    (Apologies if that came off as too harsh, I have reasons to take issue with that point of view. If you want to truly debate this topic, feel free to DM me, be sure to bring your references. Also you seem to have just joined Lemmy, if you have site questions, feel free to ask as well, the community is actually quite decent.)

  • Ok internet, lets sing a song called "non-google alternative map programs", ill start.

    OpenStreetMap!

    (I dont know the rest of the words... Halp)

  • He also likely wont live long enough to see it. This is why old rulers are so short sighted, they know they wont have to live through the consequences of their actions.

  • Use a third party app like New Pipe, if your on a fruit phone... you unfortunatly cant side load apps, I dont have an answer...

  • OP is right though, there are parts of the world where self defense is not as clear cut. The question you need to follow up with is "is this self defense against nature or people?".

    For example, there are places in the far north where polar bears are a problem, I doubt anyone other than Greenpeace would not have a problem with you shooting an animal attacking you. Its tragic, but by that point its not really avoidable.

    The issue most of us have is the "defense against people" where lines get drawn, the problem is how inconsistent that line is. Im in the camp where survival is fine, and sport is conditionally ok, but outside that there are no ethical reasons to persue gun ownership, but others will say collections, historic preservation, or self defense are valid reasons. Culture has a lot to do with it, some places handle it well, like Switzerland, but the elephant in the room is America and their, I would argue very unhealthy, relationship with guns.

  • Then lets hope their paychecks in Dogecoin are worth retiring on. (Apologies internet, im really just being extra cynical today)
