  • "Plane crash" must be another term for "lead poisoning of the brain", which likely occurred weeks ago.

  • "can", but "won't".
    The shitstorm of logistics to make that happen is so far beyond what anyone would actually be willing to do.
    Laws just don't apply to the wealthy, as much as they ought to.
    Laws really don't apply to wealthy ex-US presidents, as much as we want them to.

  • Robocop, Trains, Planes and Automobiles, Dances with Wolves.

  • Just started reading "To Sleep in a Sea of Stars". (Christopher Paolini)

    It's huge, but so far the pacing moves quickly enough to keep from getting bogged down.

  • Apps don't suck if they work.
    If an app looks great and flashy but functionally is garbage, then what's the point.

    Give me a plain looking app that works well every time.

    Looking forward to grabbing this when it's available.

  • No, but remember, those 70% will likely vote for the assbag, no matter how the legal matters fall out.

    Another four year term from Trump would be absolutely disastrous. After being sworn in, I wouldn't be at all surprised if, instead of making a speech, he simply took a copy of the Constitution and just tore it up.

  • So if he goes to federal prison, do the secret service members who are part of his detail draw straws to see who else gets to spend time being bars?

  • In my opinion, anything by Crouch is pure gold.

  • Anything that gets nearer to a RES-like experience from Reddit is an absolute plus. This UI is brilliant.

  • Who the hell cuts pizza?
    Fold, eat.

  • Lock Up (1989).
    Yes it's a generic prison movie with quite a few standard tropes, but I've always liked it.

  • Yes, you could just go to https://startrek.website/communities for the list of communities on that particular instance.
    However, subscribing to a community on an instance where you do not have an account takes a few extra steps.

    When looking at the list of communities on another instance where you do not have an account, clicking the Subscribe link from the list will result in a popup stating that you're not logged in and if you click on the community name, a Subscribe button will not be shown.
    However, most, if not all, communities will have instructions in the sidebar for how to subscribe from your main instance without the need for creating an account on the instance where that community resides.

    To do this using the example of the startrek.website instance, if you wish to subscribe to the daystrominstitute community, you would enter "!daystrominstitute@startrek.website" into the search field on your main Lemmy instance where you are logged in.
    Generally the first item in the results will be a link back to that community, which will look like:
    "Daystrom Institute@startrek.website - 448 subscribers"
    Click that link and you will see the content of that community again, but now notice that a Subscribe button will be shown in the sidebar.
    Clicking Subscribe may result in a note that says "Subscribe pending", which I believe is due to some syncing that needs to occur between instances. Just give it a few minutes and then that community will appear in your list of subscribed communities.
    You can now read, post and reply to that community just as if you had an account on that instance.

  • I think that getting peed on by an animal at a county fair is one of the entrance requirements for 4-H, so you can now check that one off the list.
