“yes the libraries should be turned into disciplinary rooms”

“I don’t understand why all of these kids are going crazy and hurting themselves/others, probably the china app”

Jesus fucking Christ america fix your shit

Proud of u son

I did haha whoops

Though I also feel them on the dad forcing you to do manly stuff. My dad was always like “why don’t you have a girlfriend yet” constantly since I was 9 or “you should play sports not play on the computer” n shit like that. He doesn’t do any of that now that my computer stuff has me making more money than him though haha fuck you dad

I love you

Hey I feel that but without being gay… How does that work?

Jesus Christ kill it!

Basically that weak contact before the device finishes being screwed in would cause a lot of arcing which would definitely cause a short circuit and would definitely trip your breaker almost constantly. The reason lightbulbs can be screwed in is not so much that it’s a convenient way to design an installable electronic but more that lightbulb companies wanted to create a design that would be so easy to replace any person could do it without any training.

So Edison hired a team of engineers to design an easy and safe application and they made the screw in application such that the contact would only get close enough at the very end of screwing and so that none of the metal would be able to contact human skin, avoiding electrocution and minimizing arcing.

For literally any higher draw application this would cause arcing so intense it would flip a breaker or possibly destroy the device and cause a fire. If you want a real life example just take a portable heater, set it to on and plug it into the wall but make that plugging motion last 3-5 seconds. WARNING you will at the very least flip a breaker and at the worst cause a fire and destroy your wall outlet, so don’t actually try this at home lmao

Of course this comes from the wall street journal lmao straight propaganda

I wish there was a way to migrate all my subscriptions, cause then I would probably change instances to ease the burden on my current instance.

I actually want to move so bad but I’m stuck here atm cause a good job and schooling

The telecom companies have too much power in Canada, first politician to say they are gonna break up the industry gets my vote.

Now I have fucking Rogers internet, I DONT WANT FUCKING ROGERS INTERNET.

I disagree, our problems are mostly because of gross governmental mismanagement, that is unlikely to change whether we bring in more immigrants or not.

We need a way to hold government leaders in critical sectors accountable for their failings

Bonus points to the fact that all trades jobs are under paid and most are understaffed. Gonna be hard to build new homes when the home builders are too hungry to work.

This made me lol

I’m gonna get a lot of hate for saying this but I WANT there to be ads on Lemmy, for developers of apps and hosters, I want there to be a way to fund the fediverse without everyone needing to pay money out of pocket. If you don’t want that that’s fine I don’t care but I want more people on Lemmy contributing more and it being free and still being able to support full time developers without being dependent on donations is a huge hurdle that will make or break the fediverse IMHO

Edit: to add onto this a lot of the people who cry about data security are not constantly running a proxy server with a VPN, I doubt they have an independent routing firewall, they probably use unsecured applications all the time, there are very few people on here where a Lemmy app will be their biggest data security flaw. 99% of y’all are not Mr Robot please stop pretending to be

Honestly most babies would die quickly without 24/7 monitoring, and for the first 6 months they look like little aliens lmao they BARELY count as people.

If fetuses count as people I guess so does a mosquito when it’s sucking your blood, can’t kill that!

Oops just got tapeworms and it’s for life since they are living beings that I have an obligation to support since they are gods creations hurrdurr

PC optimum credit literally stole money from me, I applied for a card and got approved, they told me to set up a debit account to pay off the credit card and had me transfer in $10 to make sure it worked. Then a week went by and I didn’t get my card so I logged into my account only to see that they had blocked access to both of my accounts. 15 hours on the phone and in person and I never got a straight answer out of them as to why it happened and I never got my money back. My dad ended up convincing me to let it go cause I was about to take them to fucking small claims court, scammers!!!

Loblaws can suck my fucking dick, after they stole money from me and fucked my credit with their PC financial bullshit and then never even gave me a refund or response after spending over 15 hours on the phone and in person has put me to the point where I no longer use any of their services when possible.

LOBLAWS NEEDS TO BE REGULATED.

This is true

Recycling is mostly a myth
