Good news until it’s not. Doubt this guy would be as rational as Pence regarding overthrowing the vote (or in theoretical dystopian 2nd term, just deciding not to leave office)
Friendly reminder for everyone to get out and vote, and to drag all your registered friends along kicking and screaming ❤️
Tell him to at least put some clothes on, jesus.
Seven years since it came out and every reference i see in the wild still gladdens my heart
Looks like Infinity is subsciption only. Just learned about Red Reader (from this thread) and it so far appears to be free, with also having anonymous browsing. Just info for anybody who might be interested in either.
EDIT: At the expense of RedReader’s interface being absolute garbage lmao
Okay because Lemmy’s being Lemmy and poking holes at your question instead of even trying to provide a straight answer, I’m gonna assume you mean the Abrahamic god and say helocentrism and evolution were both ideas that the catholic church strongly opposed initially. Pretty much anything that says humans aren’t super special, actually, tends to not mesh with christian ideology, for obvious reasons. Modern day panpsychist ideas (the thought that consciousness is a fundamental property that becomes more complex with the complexity of the organism, or at the very least that plants and individual cells are conscious) are gaining hold in scientific communities lately and, if sufficiently proven/argued for (because consciousness is notoriously insufficiently defined), it’s probably gonna be another X on the accepted christian worldview.
Yeah how the hell would one sew buttons on ice cream?? That’s just confusing.
Hmmm we might need to verify his state of residence, just to be sure…
I think the reason is less about “i, an individual, am getting my data harvested” (though certainly still a factor) byt more because China is still very much considered an enemy of the US, and they are not only harvesting americans data in a very invasive way - as in, recording pretty much everything you do on your phone, not just in the app - but an adversarial government now has access to all of that. Additionally, because the chinese “free market” has been effectively neutered in recent years, high chance that the CCP is able to influence TikTok’s algorithm to affect what people see and push propaganda. People should be concerned about it in the same way people should be concerned about russian bot farm, but more so, because there isn’t an audience of millions feeding russian bot farms their personal information.
The most effective ways to die sound painful, and even for the “painless” ones, if you fuck it up you either suffer way too long or get slapped with insane medical debt and locked up in a loony bin for a ehile (usa). While I don’t fear death itself or have a strong emotional attachment to the life I’m living right now, my life’s in no way bad, so it’s still an easy choice for me.
Kyoto. Absolutely beautiful, awesome cultural landmarks, and when I went pre-covid - we stayed in an air bnb - it had a cool large-town vibe despite being one of Japan’s major cities. I liked it much better than Tokyo.
I, a random American citizen with no political power, declare Putin’s presidency null and void!
I am polite, most of the time. Wouldn’t really consider myself nice tho.
Ah, resting bitch voice
there is just not enough time and energy left to get my ass in front of an IDE again.
The solution here is to revert to coding with punch-cards

Dude, same. On top of that, I also struggle with imposter syndrome and a work for a company with a burnout culture, which a recipe for constantly kicking your own ass for not having literally everything done always, so I force myself to try to be “productive” the whole time, which always, ALWAYS backfires, but the guilt from watching everyone else work themselves to death is just too much. I’m hoping to switch to a remote job with a company who values employee wellbeing over “the grind” soon though.
OP did, in fact, confirm elsewhere in another comment. Still doesn’t guarantee he’s from a mental-health friendly nation, but it is kinda crazy that he was indicating that the USA was somehow inherently better for building relationships than other places…
I understand that, but it doesn’t mean I need to respect or approve of anybody who does film people in public. Sitting next to a stranger on an otherwise empty bus isn’t illegal either, but that doesn’t mean the person isn’t still a creep for doing it. And I am considering being the subject of a film as different from happening to pass by a camera frame, or being seen by a security camera.
I wonder if his detail will include anti-brainworm specialists
