  • I fucking hate the death of keyboard shortcuts and not being able to reliably tab through fields. Particularly in UIs designed for data entry.

    All our patient care reporting software has gone to a touch-screen centric UI ... when half the fields still require typing information in.

  • I'm pretty confident in saying the majority of users here don't like meta either -- the userbase on lemmy is predominantly people trying to avoid corporate social media.

    ByteDance and Meta both privacy nightmares, it's just a question of what fucked up things they doing with the data.

  • Biden: Alright, you're going to stop this right now.

    Netanyahu: No, we're not.

    Biden: We'll withdraw all aid. We'll sanction you.

    Netanyahu: Lol. You're going to burn your one "ride or die" ally in the middle east? The one that has nukes? We'll stop providing you with intel and assisting you in any "stabilizing" of the region. Maybe I'll give Xi and Putin a call -- I'm sure they'd love us as a friend. Maybe they'll send some experts to "inspect" some of these new toys you sold us, like the F-35.

    Biden: ... shit.

  • I mean, there's this.

    And this.

    He's also the president: he can make proposals, he can sign executive orders, but he can't force funding for those things. He can't wave his hands and pass laws -- those are things congress does, and shockingly every single progressive or pro working class idea he or his party backs gets immediately shut down in congress by the GOP.

  • Usually it does, but then again there are places where people don't drink the tap water.

  • 47, married, DL.

    "Hey."

    Bonus points if their profile pic very clearly has their wife cropped out.

  • If you're looking for reliable, primitive gears: look at an old watermill's wooden "crown wheel" and pinion.

    That being said, you'd get the same effect with pulleys and belt. Hand carving wooden pulleys or turning them on a simple pole lathe with a sharp or abrasive rock would much easier than making gears.

  • Not a bad idea, but you'd be relying on the IDF and Hamas not to fuck it up. The odds of a fuck-up increases exponentially with every idiot you add to a situation.

  • I have had more "straight" guys send me dick picks and ask if we can hook up (at my place, obviously) than I can count.

  • A heavily downvoted 1 month old account.

  • They live a privileged life where nobody legitimately wants to seriously hurt or kill them, and they can trust law enforcement to protect them.

    Armed minorities are harder to oppress.

  • I'm always skeptical of the overdose death numbers. I personally know several people that died from Covid and nobody that's died from opioids.
