That property has more rights and protections than people do.
The value of human life, in reality, is much lower than I thought it would be.
Laws and rights are only as good as the people & mechanisms that enforce them. A piece of paper doesn’t protect you, people do.
That people often prefer a comforting delusion over the truth, even if it hurts them in the long run.
Only about two or three here on this site. I don’t mind people who believe strange and disturbing things, politically or otherwise. It’s the deliberate trolls that I block.
Fascists don’t have to worry about being on the right side of history because they intend to rewrite and distort history.
I sort of see the appeal of having kids, but I can barely keep things together for myself. There’s no way I can support myself and kids. Even with my boyfriends income and mine, it’s just not realistic.
I have a rechargeable mouse from a no-name Chinese company, and they put the port at the nose of the mouse. It works like a wired mouse when plugged in and charging.
How has Apple not figured this out?
What does karma even do?
A Republican.
I’m shocked, shocked!
…well not that shocked.
Anker. Every time I buy one of their products, I’m impressed by the quality. It’s come to the point that I’m seeing knockoff brands inserting the Anker keyword into their product descriptions, hoping a search will put their product up in view.
I don’t have anything specific, but generally speaking those who idolize war have never seen the horrors of war. Speaking with veterans who have actually seen real combat is a good place to start.
A lot of celebrities became shitbags, unfortunately. The most disappointing IMO was JK Rowling. My sisters loved the Harry Potter universe, but soured on it after it was reveled Rowling was a huge nazi shithead.
Considering the fact that corporations make up about 70% +/- of all the solution and climate destruction, and the fact that politicians are bribed by said corporations to ignore the problem, there’s little we can actually do about it except voting.
but World of Warcraft is a bit intimidating for new players, just in terms of the scope and changing seasons.
Yup, can confirm. I left wow near the end of Burning Crusade and came back to it in the middle of Shadowlands. I was so confused. Plus, nobody talks anymore. Chat used to be lively, but now players seem inconvenienced and annoyed by strangers trying to start up a conversation.
I don’t recognize the game anymore and have no interest in continuing. I tried WoW classic when it came out and had a blast. Got through Northrend leveling and then left again.
Though it was used in a few games before, a Quake tournament and Half Life 1 cemented the use of WASD controls.
That’s all well and good, but let’s hope we see the fruits of this swing at the ballot box.
My future career as a welder. I’m currently in a paid apprenticeship and I’m stuck on the final qualification before graduation. Everything else was easy, but the copper-nickel to mild steel test keeps failing. I’m on my forth and final test attempt.
If I fail, there’s a real possibility I’ll be fired. It would be foolish of them to fire me as they’ve already invested a considerable amount of time, money, and training on me. But I don’t know if they’ll see reason, so I’m getting my resume ready for another job.
It shouldn’t be hard to find another job, this current one has already given me four years of on-the-job apprentice training experience. I just don’t want to leave this current job as I like it here.
Just Lemmy, Facebook, and YouTube if that counts. And my time on Facebook is slowly dwindling.
I was invited to go, but I’m rather busy with other things.
I guess it depends on what you intend to donwith the laptop as they’re not all built the same.
Wait… there’s a dark mode?
I have an idea for an invention, but I don’t have the tools or materials to make it, nor do I have the proper space to make it. I have blueprints drawn and experts consulted on design, but not the means to actually do it.
