Honestly, can you be sure you wouldn’t get distracted and forget the next step

This would help me and my wife. We both get distracted and this would remind us to finish the task before doing anything else.

Indeed, and some of them (according to others) have been quite good.

I have seen bits and pieces of like 4 or 5 of them but I honestly couldn’t say which ones except black panther. They weren’t bad, they just couldn’t hold my interest and I stopped watching.

Haven’t watched an entire marvel movie since endgame.

I don’t particularly hate or dislike them but I don’t care to watch them.

One scoop of shit in a sandwich is better than two, but it’s still a shit sandwich.

I can’t count how many times I’ve heard someone near me say something about how minority groups in the UK are just going around stabbing each other or shooting up drugs, and also immigrants are stabbing everyone and doing all the drugs, and also the teenagers are getting wasted every night… Etc…

Like… What possible news source could you be basing this off? I’ll admit I don’t keep up with global news like I could, but it seems pretty stab-free in the UK and that’s why it’s such a big deal when it does happen.

Also just this past month I’ve heard someone talk shit about gun control because of a shooting in a relatively gun-free country “look how that helped them”… Uhhhhhh yeah let’s just ignore all the mass shootings in our own backyard that don’t even make news anymore because it’s so frequent.

Reality means nothing to these people, only what they(re told to) feel at that particular moment.

A local church got fined something like 150k for hosting a soup kitchen every Thursday and only stopped because cops started breaking it up and arresting people.

In the same month, the only local food bank closed for a plethora of reasons (no donations, lack of enough/consistent volunteers, etc)

Cops started threatening to arrest people who gave anyone food on the side of the road.

Genuine question: what are homeless/starving people supposed to do now?

I mean, we all know the answer, I just want the Fuckwads to say it out loud and stop pretending.

Ew. Gross. I liked not knowing better. Ah well, at least I can’t check it myself so I don’t really care that much. I didn’t want lemmy to feel like a competition like I used to feel occasionally with r*ddit.

Also this is the first time I’ve noticed my name doesn’t show up as “Miles O’brien” for everyone. Now I’m sad :(

Right? Call of duty is basically 5 seconds of setup and then everyone just sprints at each other guns blazing.

Who asked for that??

If I had to guess? Children/minors who don’t like setup time.

Yeah, ruining play experiences by locking things behind paywalls is a terrible thing to do.

Honestly I’ve thought cm002 was a bot before as well, but they engage in comment sections often enough to say either it’s not, or it’s a user hopping on to check bot progress.

Either way, most likely case is it’s a user that saw a funny meme, and reposted it since not every sire is federated with others and some communities might not see it, especially if it’s to a world or ml domain.

Possibly related, I did not see your post from this morning, this is my first time seeing it. Not sure about federation between instances but yeah.

Also tangentially related, anyone remember the huge r*ddit drama over a poweruser constantly reposting things with top comment responses to farm karma? That was a fun glance into people who take imaginary internet points too seriously. I’m glad lemmy doesn’t keep track of total votes.

I… Do you know what liminal means?

Based on the comment, I guess the answer is either “no” or “I don’t care but America bad”

Yet another “you’re overreacting, that’ll never happen”

I park next to an 80s beetle with over 350k on the odometer. My own truck is from the 90s with 280k.

I work with a guy who daily drives his dad’s old Mercedes. While he inherited it, it wasn’t a “project car” or anything, it was a daily driver kept in good repair. Honestly, you put on a new clear coat, detail the interior? It feels no more than a few years old. 500k miles.

Whaaaaat? Are they suggesting the United States would ever do anything to harm people? People who have done nothing to deserve it, and certainly not to the united states?

And then the US lied about it???

Noooooooooo, that could never happen… repeatedly… throuought our entire history…

I’ve never heard a girl use those measurements.

Women, however, use them frequently enough.

Sorry for being pedantic but it rubs me the wrong way when people refer to women as “girls”

Edit: Guess this part of lemmy is cool with infantilizing women. Didn’t know people around here were cool with sharing traits with pedophiles, but here we are.

What elegance might even an extra millimeter of chassis space produced?

People really don’t seem to understand that in the electronics world, one single millimeter can make worlds of difference.

You absolutely can cram so much more stuff in “dumber” electronics, but phones are even more constricted in design, because they need to send and receive signals of different types, so feedback and signal noise are concerns.

Adding in even slightly more space allows for much better design, because you have more tolerances to reduce signal noise. It allows dozens of wires for camera sensors to route better. A 20% longer battery life. Heck, just being slightly more ergonomic and less droppable is a bonus to slightly thicker phones.

I didn’t even consider signal noise until I got into fpv drones and rc stuff, it can mame a ton of difference if you have a single wire 2mm out of place. (and crash your drone because the motor interfered with your antenna)

Thiner≠better.

I make Yoko Ono-quality art every single day of my life.

I just usually flush it, and haven’t bothered trying to show other people since I was about 6.

That’s fair.

Of course, it doesn’t yet talk in Majel Barrett’s voice yet…

That can be arranged. I’ve heard they recorded her saying a bunch of frequently used words/phrases, as well as phonetic sounds, so that her voice could be used in the future for the computer. I’m not sure how true that is, but I am a little afraid to look it up.

I’ve always hoped to hear her in the new trek shows.
