Agreed. I'd like to support continued development of Lemmy, but I'm hesitant to do so knowing that part of those donations go to lemmy.ml's server upkeep.
I am all for coordinated movements, but organize with who, plan what, act how?
I see this kind of sentiment all the time on Lemmy and generally agree with it, but it feels like platitudes at this point when no one can recommend any concrete action.
Of course he did, since his boss said it was just a 3-day special military operation to begin with. How was Trump to know there would be more to it than that?
I don't think that is how the song went, the guy who was afraid to fly ended up getting on a plane, which crashed just like he was afraid it would.
Mr. Play-It-Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down
He thought, "Well, isn't this nice?"
Similar hope here, but even then I feel like it's a lost cause.
Right now houses are expensive because land and materials are expensive, and so no one is building. You've also got investment firms and landlords buying up whatever properties they can find so they can just lease them to people and make more money over time doing basically nothing.
The economy could tank, but I don't think that would help. There would still be no one building houses, and corporations and landlords will still have more money than me. The coming die-off of the Boomers might be a better chance, but even then I don't have too much hope.
Wonder what would happen if some region passed a law capping corporations and landlords from owning no more than 2 residential properties.
Yeah, I've definitely gotten looks for picking up bowls close to my face in the west. Normal for my household, but not normal elsewhere.
Even for not-chopstick dishes like soup or pasta or something, I just find it easier to hold the bowl close to my face, rather than having to lean forward so much over a table just to not make a mess. That shit is how people learn bad posture.
Those sorts of things can absolutely happen. Newer versions of games often either patch issues on older versions or there may be some glitches that are not as easy to take advantage of when the hardware isn't struggling as much.
The Zelda Speedruns site even maintains a list of version differences for various Zelda games which make a difference to which version is optimal to run.
Yep, even going way back, there are differences between speedrun times for Ocarina of Time on N64, Ocarina of Time on GameCube, Ocarina of Time on Wii VC, and Ocarina of Time on NSO. And that's also not considering the native PC port recently assembled by the community.
And that's why speedrun leaderboards always factor in game version/region and platform when measuring runs against one another.
Still seems up in the air. Just looking at the current numbers from CBC, the NDP is only slated to take 8 seats, so it seems like BQ is going to be the one with the cards, assuming the tides don't suddenly shift.
