Google accused of directing motorist to drive off collapsed bridge
After looking at the picture of the bridge in the article, it looks like it should have either been fixed or blocked by a large only moveable by heavy machinery barrier of some description.
What if someone was using a 15 year old paper map? Would they get to sue the cartographer?
What if the bridge had collapsed yesterday? Last week?
As much as I don't like Google, I don't think they're at fault here.

‘Will See This Played at Trial’: Megyn Kelly Praised For Letting Trump ‘Confess’ During Interview
Now, the other people that we talk about, including Biden, he wasn’t president. So what he did is a different standard. And he should have real problems. They really should be talking about that. Not about me. I did absolutely nothing wrong.
The level of cognitive dissonance here is just absolutely mind blowing.

Every generation has some product/ingredient that they didn’t know was dangerous at the time: tobacco, lead, asbestos, etc. What is that item for this generation?

Have you heard of Dihydrogen monoxide? It literally kills hundreds of thousands of people every single year all over the world, including young children.
You don't hear about it in the news though do you....

I just cannot belive how history is repeating itself.
This is what is doing my tits in. It's so fucking frustrating and maddening watching America go through this shit. It's unbelievable.
I just try to remember that there are good people in America, and I hope they prevail.

Such a shame that nothing could’ve been done to prevent this.
You're so wrong. Did you forget about thoughts and prayers?
Gonna add a /s in case this went over anyone's head...

Diablo 4 Twitch viewership continues to drop as Diablo 3 overtakes it
Something to keep in mind is that a new season of D3 has recently come out (more interest) while D4 hasn't had anything in a while (less interest). These two things will be bumping the numbers.
P.S I'm a long time PoE and formerly D3player. I'm stoked I didn't buy into D4. If anyone hasn't tried it yet, a D4 YouTuber called Darth Microtransactions described PoE as 'everything I wanted in D4 but more and free'.

Lemmy resembles the old reddit experience so well that they even emulate the old reddit server performance

I was on world at first because I thought each instance was its own subreddit, so I went with the one with the most users! After a day and a half I somewhat understand instances now and have switched to a smaller one. Hopefully other reddit refugees will do it too.
Thanks for being so welcoming and patient with us. I'm really glad to be here.

Hell yea the poop knife. His family had one because their shits would block toilets. He thought it was a normal thing to require and have a poop knife but after going to a friend's house and asking for it, he discovered that it was indeed (Samuel L. Jackson voice) not a normal thing to possess.

Biden says special counsel probe of his son is ‘up to the Justice Department’
Immediately notice the distinction. Others would be saying "This is a targeted WITCH HUNT, it's all lies made up by the other side! It's obviously bribery and corruption! We're losing our country WWAAAA WAAAAA etc".

Child poverty in the United States just more than doubled. You can thank Joe Manchin.
That includes the end of Medicaid rules that protected recipients from getting kicked off because of administrative errors
