Before we dive deeper, it's essential to understand what personal character means.

I mean, the rabid Trump supporters are working from such a different starting point and set of assumptions. It makes perfect sense to go right back to basics: definitions of "lying" and "personal character".

the intentional design of Lemmy

Yeah, if you disagree with an instance's decisions, defederations, and so on... Choose another instance 🤷

![email protected] is leaking.

Technically, but they're only one way.

The ones sold as "heat pumps" can operate both directions-- cool the outside world/heat your home in winter.

Yeah Narnia was straight up unmistakable Christian allegory. I believe J.R.R. (C.S.'s drinking buddy) always insisted that LOTR was not meant to be taken in that way, or like when people hypothesized that Sauron was Hitler and so on.

Haha I remember a couple months ago at his first arraignment, Trump's team actually wanted a mugshot for the merch, and photoshopped one up when NY DA didn't oblige.

Including t-shirt sizes! That's a new one. Identity theft mannequins with accurate bellies?!?

???

Profit!

Lol well done.

I couldn't believe when that came out and had no effect. Like when George W would just misspeak or Clinton admitted smoking weed in college or whatever, it always seemed like there were huge political consequences.

We’re concerned about getting sunburned and tanned

Lighter skin=beautiful skin in China. Not a racist thing (at least in its origins) but classist: the poors had to go work in the sun all day.

I gather it used to be the same in Europe and the west, but then the poors ended up cooped up in their office jobs while the beautiful people could go on beach vacations, and suddenly tans were in.

I've never heard of this either, I had to check Wikipedia. Apparently it's caused by two chemicals from boar balls, one is "sweaty" tasting and one is "fecal".

I wonder how bad it'll get before we get some kind of prescribed burn policy. Smoky summers suuuuck. Having your house or town burn down in an out of control wildfire sucks even more.

Want.

I'm a simple man--I see Casio, I upvote.

it can be used to incentivize the act of running a lemmy/kbin instance (for instance).

Good comment and I'd just like to say, I see what you did there.

I really really really wanted Trudeau to follow though with election reform and get rid of first past the post/strategic voting and make other parties viable.

HE SAID OP HAS A POSITIVE TAKE AND THATS IS WHATS HE APPRECIATES ABOUTS OP.

Thank you for this perspective.

Lol relevant Unabomber quotes. Good ol' Lemmy

Welp my ol' boomer dad always said no Christmas shit before December, decorations, music, etc.

But my kids asked me to set up the tree in the middle of November. So I figure might as well make them happy.

And as it happened, my dad died of cancer in his 40s so it's not like his Christmas rules did him any good any way.

Whattaya gonna do 🤷‍♂️

I've never heard of this Keith Geiren, based on this one article he doesn't seem to be a completely frothing at the mouth/privatize everything/typical postmedia opinion writer.

What is a better way to compare server performance in this context? (Actually curious, sincerely asking)
