Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised. Anyone over the age of 25 or so didn't have everything so blatantly out in the open with the internet as much as they do. When I was a kid we'd look up to adults as people that actually knew what the fuck was going on. Of course, later on in life you realize that nobody knows what the fuck is going on. But people that are growing up now see it for what it is when they're still in middle-school and highschool. They're seeing how fucked everything is before they even have a chance to be optimistic. The illusion of stability isn't just broken, it's missing entirely.

And you're incredibly cute.

What about the thin blue line as the libs were calling for defunding the police?

The biggest snowflake is calling someone else a snowflake. Sounds about on par with Republicans to me.

This deeply pisses me off. You have no idea how excited I am to go back to the moon and if that goes down the drain imma lose it.

I can't even afford a used car from 2015. Even if i wanted a Tesla, which I don't, I wouldn't even be able to buy one.

It's not a law, but more of a rule enforced by the secret service. Ever since JFK the secret service has restricted the ability of the president to drive outside of private property. There was one time during Obama's presidency when the secret service went into an immediate panic when decided to drive around the white house.

So I guess you technically could, it's just an incredibly stupid thing to do. It's an easy way to piss off the secret service and put your life at risk for no reason.

I miss the days when Google would just give a snippet of a Wikipedia article at the top and you just click the "read more" button. It may not have been exactly what you were looking for but at least it wasn't blatantly wrong. Nowadays you have to almost scroll down to the bottom just to find something relevant.

There's literally no reason besides market manipulation. Even if he knew how to drive, the president is not allowed to drive for the rest of their life after being elected.

You cheeky cunt. 😘

I know, I'm a mad man. But I stand by my principles of seeing boobs at work.

But... You just... You know that... You know that Zelda is the princess and Link is the guy right? Or was this on purpose since you mentioned upset nerds?

The Sonic movies were pretty decent. Not super amazing, but the bar is so low for video game movies you might as well consider them masterpieces.

However, I do not trust Nintendo to make a good Zelda movie.

I open the links too.

Yeah, imma have to go through our equipment to find out if they go through with this. If we do have to replace it, this shit is not cheap.

Mostly Lemmy for me but sometimes Pixelfed. I'm also a psychopath and browse "everything" with all NSFW filters turned off while at work, so I'm probably not a good judge.

Yeah, but this time they already have the results they want they just need someone to tell them they are right.

If you strive for perfection you will always fall short. Just do what you can. I started actually going to stores instead of buying things online, but sometimes that is not feasible. If I absolutely have to buy something from Amazon, I canceled my Prime and just wait longer for my packages. As for the other services Amazon provides I have no idea. Look for alternatives as best you can.

The goal is more about giving as little money as possible to Amazon. You don't have to go cold turkey and cut it all out if it causes problems for you. Use this time to research alternatives for the future as you pivot away.

GPS isn't just for google maps. I'm a land surveyor and we literally use GPS every single day. Without it we're basically fucked. We do hydrographic surveying and without GPS we'd have to basically go back to analog as 90% of the equipment on our boat would be useless. Good luck figuring out how much water is left in the Colorado river without it.

Im not exactly an expert on this, but i am very familiar with what my job requires. The National Geodetic Survey (NGS) will be completely fucked without it as it's built on decades of data and monitoring. You can't just look for "alternatives." Whatever Elmo has is not robust enough for the precision that is required for what we use GPS for. And without shit like that you couldn't hit the broad side of a city.

And immediately after it took a nose dive, recovered slightly, and then started trending down like it has been for the last two months. Super strategic.
