I grew up in the northeast and none of the schools had central air. It's not hot enough before summer break to justify it. At least historically...

Today I Learned

Looks tasty!

This is fantastic, while having them obviously in drag is delicious, it would be even more stark if some of them present as traditional male too and really bring the point home.

God bless - nothing wrong with having the right tool for the job and not being frivolous. I too have an overly large truck but it's a 3/4 ton (2500 HD) and almost 15 years old. I don't drive it more than necessary but I own 20 acres and often enough I need to tow, haul or pull something that I couldn't do without it. I'm going to keep this thing on the road until it dies or there's an economically viable green alternative. But it's crazy to think of the resources that go into a new one and I couldn't justify it for a few mpg better, so I'm very happy to have a trustworthy mechanic 😁

And, while I really like the Rivian and the F150 lightening, they would be glorified very expensive toys and I'd still need to keep my big truck for the hard jobs, so they'll wait till I win the lottery ¯ツ)/¯

Yes, I've been using this past week and it's become by far my preferred Lemmy client

Thanks for your comment, certainly there are people like yourself who mean those words earnestly to convey a delicate point. I also imagine that comes out in your demeanor and character when you are saying that to someone.

Unfortunately, in my experience, many people say it without any sense of empathy or compassion at all despite the literal meaning. 😕

I enjoyed it, I read the Martian before it got big and turned into a movie. I thought it might be a one hit wonder when Hail Mary came out and was prepared for disappointed but I ended up enjoying it quite a bit.

While I'm definitely one to get mildly irritated at the phrasing (and am even more irritated by "fur babies" lol), I'm really bothered by people excusing their own rudeness - right up there with saying "no offense" right before being deliberately offensive. Like if you don't want to yuck my yum or cause offense then why are you about to do it anyway?

I like Gboard, Swiftkey was my favorite for a long time before Gboard seemed to outpace it. Clipboard functionally, both history and images, swipe to delete, text input, it's just a tight experience most of the time.

Those are some fine words and definitely help motivate me to contribute more. No way I was touching threads before though, so not much convincing needed!

Good bot

Very cool, how long did that take to build?
