Thank you kind soul, that really brightened up my day.

Not the whole government, but some of it 100% yes.

I can only agree. The Democrats are just as bound to the funding of the billionaires as the Republicans, they just have to hide it better in order to have a chance to win something.

The Roman Empire fell slowly, and now it’s our turn. I only hope that true socialism can emerge from the ashes.

You didn’t seem argumentative to me at all. I’m genuinely happy to disagree about something and:

-just have it be civil

-no one takes it personally

-we find things we can agree on

I definitely agree that less plastic = better in general. But if you’re going to 3d print stuff, at least this is functional.

And I’m not here to argue. God it is nice to have a civil discussions on social media.

China has also mastered modern slave labor. That someone makes thier own replacement instead of ordering some small uncomplicated part from across the globe isn’t crazy, it’s self-reliant and smart.

But that’s, like, just my opinion man.

It’s not about proving it beyond a doubt, the OP’s frustrarion is about how the whole courtroom drama was inaccurate.

The assumtion is this: Legally, Starfleet only allows sapent adults to join its ranks. So a toaster cannot be a starfleet officer, and neither can a dog.

The fact that he is an officer means that in legal terms, Starfleet has already decided that he is a person, and any court that asks this question has a quick and easy answer.

I understand that, I’m very aware that my reaction is emotional and subjective. I’m just sick of reading that sentence over and over and over again.

I totally agree with you. I just hate all of these “don’t have kids” arguments from liberal people. It’s not a viable solution, because the fascists and the idiots are gong to have kids. We need at least some sane people to continue on.

But the is all emotional and subjective, I’ll admit that. I’m not really thinking about this topic with a clear head anymore.

And what then, the human race just dies out? I get the pessimistic feeling, but we may very well be the only sapient species in this galaxy. It would be such a waste to just give up and perish because of momentary hardships.

We are literally sapient stardust, and I’m certainly not going to give up and throw away the efforts and struggles on millions of ancestors just because of some current corporate greed and fascism is in fashion.

In Other Waters. Wonderful atmospheric indie with minimalist visual style and a wonderful chill soundtrack. It’s beautiful and relaxing, but never boring.

Their for the tip.

Reddit pereon here. After over a year (I think, didn’t check) on Lemmy I still don’t understand the details about how works. I’m pretty busy, and it works to get me my news and such, so it wasn’t important to understand how it does so.

But now I’m inspired, thanks for that. I will look into changing servers, finding something that better fits my interests and such. I may even perhaps learn something in the process. Keeping the network decentralized is important, and I can do my part.

I use two Ecoflow batteries, a smaller 2kAh model and a 4kAh one. I have solar panels on my Garage roof, the big battery lives there. I charge bike batteries directly with the big battery, and use the big one to charge the small one for use in the house.

The setup is expensive overall, but the results are great. The batteries have USB C that can charge laptops and other devices, and the AC outlets are powerful enough for the vaccum cleaner, coffee machine, basically everything in the house that can be plugged into an outlet other than some power tools.

Edit: Actually I haven’t installed the panels yet, I’ve been too busy. When I first posted it seemed like an unimportant detail, but yeah, no. I have been using the little battery for about 18months already with a smaller portable panel that moves around the yard to get the best sunlight, so the details about using the batteries are true. But I’m still unsure how to charge one battery with the other. The AC outlets will work for this, but the conversion losses are a problem, and I’m looking into how to do DC transfer.

This is the kind of comment that we do not need here amongst the righteous. Of course you have a say, you have a vote. It doesn’t matter which state, just fucking vote. The republicans are on their last leg, their only hope is that you give up and resign to your fate.

Don’t. Don’t give an inch. Go vote. Show them that we the people are still in power, and we will no longer stand for their corporate distopia.

That’s a valid criticism.

On the other side: Pay for a year at once and get 3600 searches/year. The rollover also doesn’t happen, but the effect is drastically reduced. Also get a discount overall.

I’m not saying that kagi is perfect, but fuck google sideways. Eat the rich. Pay for the product or you are the product.

Women are not good for the price of the the the the the the…

Like mamba #5?

I’d love to see someone reading this comment out of context, and try to piece together how it came to be.
