Hahaha you still think there will be elections. Cute!
Can’t stress this enough. And block based on keywords. My lemmy experience improved dramatically once I started blocking users, subs, and instances I didn’t like.
Those users get to enjoy their thing, and I wont yuck their yum. I’ve managed to cutout most of the rage bait and the stuff in my feed is genuinely interesting.
Yes. Very fun. Generally well designed. Combat mechanism are tight. But it feels like you’re in act 2 for fuckin ever. Then you get to act 3 and basically have to do it all again. Then finally, mercifully, its over. If they just cut the map in half it would have probably completely solved the problem.
7/10, will play again.
The people who chose to remain catholic had no opinion on protestantism before it was invented, then they formed a negative opinion of it. Opinion changed, cheque mate aetheistises.
I’ve been following Lemmy development for years since I think decentralized software is cool. I always thought it was a cool idea, but there was never enough content for me. It always seemed like a prototype of an idea. When the API catastrophe struck, I committed to Let full time and deleted my account.
Woah hey not all of us stoners advocate for dangerous driving. I also condemn high driving. The problem is that THC interferes with your ability to focus (at least for me). Distracted driving is dangerous driving.
Personally though, my fight is against a culture of car dependency. Better bus and rail infrastructure, combined with an investment in urbanized, high density housing would tackle this problem head on and lead to significant culture change and damage reduction, but Americans are allergic to well designed urban areas.
I’m the opposite. I want to like freetube more but it never works for me. I don’t really have any problems with NewPipe.
I like gnome also. I’m going to try cosmic de but probably won’t use it full time.
I do use the PaperWM and dash to dock extensions, so it isn’t stock gnome. I normally don’t like extensions or addons but these are well done and it seems like they have staying power.
That’s completely, 100% untrue.
I’m going to make these numbers up, but the math checks out.
If you’re a nurse making 100k/year, let’s assume you take home 60k of that. You’ll take home a million dollars after “just” 17 years. Are you really going to tell me that nurses are exploitative labor?
Now, I’m not going to get into the math of expenses because I’m lazy, but I’m also not factoring in any kind of investing either.
Now, those nurses need a supervisor to handle advanced work they aren’t familiar with, scheduling, dealing with mgmt, telling Drs to fuck off, etc. So if that nurse lead takes home 100k, they can do it even sooner at just 10 years. You can argue that this is exploitative labor, but you’d be wrong.
At some point you get supervisors that don’t do or contribute anything and pull in like 500k/year. Those jobs should probably not exist since they are by definition exploitative. But earning a few million dollars over the course of your lifetime is easily achievable on your own labor alone.
You can’t be a billionaire on your own labor. You can be a millionaire on your own labor, but it isn’t easy and takes a long time.
My net worth is almost a million dollars because my wife and I don’t have kids and our jobs pay decently. We should be millionaires in the next five years or less. We don’t have anyone who reports to us. Who have we exploited? In my col area we need (currently) 3 million total to live a modest retirement. Under your plan, this would be impossible to achieve. Do you want to make everyone a wage slave forever? And that’s ignoring high COL areas like NYC and LA where a million dollars might get you a small house.
That’s not true you can earn a few million from hard work. Its rare these days, but doable. Still pennies compared to Elon et. al. I think the cutoff should be between 50-100 million. After that we name a park after you and you get a trophy for winning at capitalism. Congrats or whatever, but we’re taking the rest.
Whatever the threshold, it needs to be indexed to inflation and COL in the local area.
SUCK IT PESTO
Bad news: if America goes under everyone goes under. You can’t rip out a backbone of the global markets and expect no fallout.
It’s the first domino to fall of many.
That was cool, thanks!
Tell me something cool about Aztec History, please!
How many new accounts do you want? I delete and recreate my account all the time. I’d be happy to make new accounts and put a bunch of comments in them for you. I could make one a week or something.
Yeah, same. I can envision things but I don’t literally see it as though with my eyes. I can imagine an object and tell you how it would look if you rotated it, for example. I don’t think I have aphantasia.
Haha no, I had to fill all that info in as I answered the questions. I mean, you can’t literally see the things in your minds eye. They’re more concepts.
What was used to delineate words before the space character, then?
