What from reddit do you hope to never see on lemmy?
Political compass meme was a breeding ground for fascists. Who would have thought a sub about reductionist political thought would attract bad actors.

People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?
AZ here, Get a cheap low power desktop for work shit, it will heat up less and you'll be able to ventilate it better.
Otherwise, a/c, thermal curtains, insulated reflector layer in front of that, make sure your weather seals on your doors are good. Drink water all the time, carry water with you all the time. Good luck with all the heatwaves and welcome to the club.

AMENDMENT XIII
Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
If you're convicted in the US you become a slave in waiting. Ever wonder why reds Love superfluous policing of certain communities and broken window policing? Because it's a direct pipeline to private prisons profit from legal slaves.

That's not really the same issue. Also, policing isn't going to fix that or it already would have. The states is the most over policed "democracy"on the planet. Common sense domestic gun policies, actual social security structures meant to help citizens, reverse the gutting of federal civil services like education, any I've one of these would help more than any amount of police and all of them are generally what most other democratic countries have. Dumping more money on unqualified overpaid ass sitters hoping for riot overtime for a new seadoo is how we got here.

But I'm pretty sure those aren't Egyptians, it looks like a conquistador's account of an Aztec ritual.

I'm not going to hate for doing the more immediate things to protect your kids, but it's extremely unlikely the police are the differentiating factor here.

Getting a bit better at sniping
I'm curious if you'd even need the range finder by the time you have the kills to equip it.

What classic song do you think is severely overrated?

I had taken a few credits focused on the Beatles cultureal impact during my degree and can confirm they are overrated and honestly are not great by modern standards.

[HN] Global heat in ‘uncharted territory’: 2023 could be the hottest year on record
Most years are going to be the hottest year in record from now on. There will be some off years but they won't be enough to cut even. The trend is up from now until we do something different.

Finding the right gaming chair
188cm, 144kg, older than you if it helps
When I switched to working at home My regular at home office chair started absolutely destroying my thighs and lower back, The thing that fixed it and in the also being incredibly cheap was just switching to a yoga ball. I haven't had any thigh or back pain since then, obviously you're not going to be able to recline and relax but as far as for playing for extended periods of time I never feel like I've gotten sore. It's weird at first and fell a few times but now I can sit around with for as long as I want with little soreness. The ball I bought holds up to something like 280kg comfortably so no need to be shy with it.
