This is like a small town custom where everybody knows one another. So even though it’s a new setting, it’s all mostly the same people. Not saying anything is actually perceived as rude. Lol

I wouldn’t expect this in a big city though. Especially if it’s a doctors office. Typically people there for private medical issues, not for socializing with strangers. Exception here is if I actually see someone I know.

On occasion the staff will say “hi” and “bye” on entering and leaving but that is more of a trained behavior than natural.

Not really interesting tbh. Although the “day in life of X” videos appear to get a shit ton of views so there’s probably at least a handful of people that would find it interesting.

12/100, maybe lol

You have been living there for 8 yrs. Is this the first time the board has been unreasonable? If not, you might not have much recourse. Except for becoming president of the HOA and changing by-laws yourself. Unfortunately, HOAs in America are fucking weird she mostly unregulated which leads to these power tripping people.

If so, I would converse with them and present the same arguments you posted here.

In both cases, it would help if you can get your neighbors on the same page and agree. If more than half of the neighbors come to the consensus that it’s unreasonable, could easily force the board’s hand and revert. If they don’t bend, I would then ask your neighbors to re-elect the board. If at this point, you would need to check your HOA by-laws since it wildly differs across the USA.

Look forward to fresh content on “just rolled into the shop” 😂

Jk - sounds like you got it installed by yourself though! Congrats. Only thing I have touched on my car is cleaning the battery terminals.

Where is the court room video of his crying and begging?

I am not fond of LTT

Same. Been telling the algo on YT to ignore LTT related videos for awhile now. Used to get recommended like every other day or so. But lately the algo has been deprioritizing their vids. Maybe the latest controversy (employee abuse) had something to do with it

I wonder how long this takes people. Couple of hours? All day? Customizing characters in game for me is a tedious task. I usually just pick a preset most of the time so I can start playing.

Most games you don’t even see the character model (Diablo 3)

That’s what happens when producers of consumer items are not regulated. There’s no downside besides cost, so producers use the cheapest method available to get their product to market.

There’s a video on YT about a guy repairing a single use cock ring. A viewer apparently sent in his used cock ring for repair. Creator discovers it doesn’t work because of a corroded battery connection. I think he later finds the battery at a local store or orders it online. Replaced the battery and the sex toy is now functioning again.

He even adds some liquid resistance and warranties the item against further damage (or so he says, haha)

Referring to this news on him? https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/gq-david-zaslav-article-warner-bros-discovery-1234783188/

Wikipedia on M249 has this info though:

Rate of fire Cyclic: 850 rounds/min Rapid: 100 rounds/min Sustained: 50 rounds/min[2]

also, 3,600 m (11,800 ft) effective firing range 👀. Although probably only a handful of people that can accurately hit at that range.

Boeing executives need to be jailed and the company needs to be restructured immediately

With climate change, those regrettable 5 days a year will become months long in the coming years.

Then in 10 years when some disrupting service releases “ephemeral” video clips that last <1 ms and get deleted; and YT implements it. The YT veteran staff of the future will think that is ruining YT shorts

Central air conditioning system or bust 😂

For real though, never lived in a place that had these window units. Guess these are more common on the east coast.

This could be a Final Destination death scene. Need a larger blade though

feels like this pic was taken in 1969 too

In order to save lives, USA needs to get off car centric transportation. More cars is not the solution. Neither is automating them in urban and dense environments. AVs belong on the highways only.

We are trying to solve a problem with “tech” that has been a solved problem by other countries for decades. Netherlands is a great example of how to move people around efficiently without using cars as the primary mode of transportation. Amazing public transportation. Towns and cities designed around alternative forms of transportation such as walking, or biking. Infrastructure is cheaper to maintain since it lasts longer and is not constantly pounded on by multi ton vehicles.

Fake it till you make it 😂

Would be nice if companies can spin up their own (lemmy|mastodon|...) instances and push out releases there. No more "blue check marks" to verify authenticity or relying on the platform to be stable. If it comes from @public.apple.com, then it's guaranteed to be authentic.
