You've ruined this for me, while at the same time making it so much better.

That cloud kind of looks like a cute little mouse.

That's a great idea! Now I want to design my own version of the board and homebrew it. A friend with a 3D printer could make the tokens.

"It's the Democrats' fault because they let Trump win!"

Probably remasters or remakes. They don't want to compete with themselves.

This could probably be used to check for authentic game cartridges. I'm not going to be licking used games to find out if they're real, though.

Yeah, there's lots of places with rampant toxicity. I was just comparing reddit and lemmy, and I consider the Federated nature of lemmy to help prevent (not necessarily stop) toxicity from growing.

I'm not an expert on this whole Federated thing, but to me, it sounds like if one community is having problems with another, they can just disassociate and not have to deal with it anymore.

True, but Reddit had the right conditions for toxicity to grow and begin to run rampant. Lemmy, with its decentralized nature, should limit the spread of any toxic communities.

We have a big maple in our yard and more through the neighborhood. The sound of wind running through their leaves is very calming.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what is turning (and has been turning) the US into a shithole country.

But my Maga coworker just told me she wants to make everything more expensive! Now I don't know who to believe; you both sound equally sensible. /s

I always turned them off, unless I was just going to eat dinner and couldn't save. The lasers for old systems like the PS2 and Sega Saturn have a longevity, and will wear out over time. I'd rather not speed that up since I plan on keeping them around. I was also scolded for wasting electricity growing up, so that is burned into my habits as well.

So then... these factory farms are the ones creating the "weapons of mass destruction," and the activists are the ones trying to stop them...?

¯(ツ)/¯

The FBI has been collaborating [...] to gather information on animal rights activism [...] under its directive to counter weapons of mass destruction

[...] charging activists who break into factory farms under federal criminal statutes that carry a possible sentence of up to life in prison - including for the "attempted use" of WMD

Can someone explain to me, in simple terms, how animal rights activism is connected to weapons of mass destruction?

Not to defent the corporate dystopia, but usually to qualify for whatever kind of insurance these companies have, they are required by the insurance company to drug test. At least, that's how it is at the company I work for. If they don't drug test, the company is held liable for anything the employee does, and insurance won't cover it.

Sarcasm tag isn't necessary. Those who benefit from it see these as legitimate questions.

I remember when this happened. I think it's wild that she is still being detained for it.

That scene in Idiocracy where the smart couple fail to reproduce comes to mind.

Being illiterate has no correlation with wanting other people to do all the work for me. We're just lazy. Please do some homework before jumping to conclusions.

I have no idea, but I just assume at this point that even mentioning Lemmy on that site would result in either a ban or a shadowban from Spez's lackeys.
