There is balance in all things. Making fun of the English and Americans is equally as funny. So’s the dutch and the Portuguese and the Spanish. If at any point your country was an empire, making fun of its people is open game.

Man you didn’t even see it, we both went up and down before I lost. It was very dramatic. Still I maintain that making fun of the french is easy laughs.
It’s extremely funny.

2·6 days agoWouldn’t bear repeating if so many people didn’t think it has calculator functionality. Maybe if the people who designed them were honest about what they have made rather than trying to sell it to investors as AGI.
Met a couple in their 60’s backpacking the AT. They absolutely cooked the rest of us. It was inspiring. If you use it, you keep it.

41·8 days agoThey literally can’t do pure math. Like everyone knows how bad they are at even simple math. We have had tools that do pure math for thousands of years, and we call them calculators. A hotbox for an imaginative mathematician? Sure, but any conclusions drawn get drawn elsewhere with more traditional tools.

I like the local one and I like using my radio. Its like 1 minute of ad over the course of a day.
Local classical station only runs the ads stuck to the NPR news segments. If you run a good station, people in the community will donate to you. Does mean you get a couple weeks out of the year where they do a lot of begging.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Barbers of Lemmy, when do you want me to keep my head still and when do you want me to look down?English
4·10 days agoIt really depends on your hair. My buzzcut looks awkward for a week or two but having the hair all grow back the same length makes it look a lot better down the road. I have also been blessed with the thick kind of hair everyone seems to like so maybe this isn’t the way everyone should do it.

5·10 days agoI get like two haircuts in a year and the barber always makes sure to ask me several times if im sure I want a buzz cut. Thats how I know they’re a good one, even if their skill is pointless for me.
Our moon is very local and worth discovering more about.
When the challenger exploded and the space age ended, so too should have been dispelled the mirage that space travel would mean infinite resources for capitalism to exploit.
At some point the spirit of space travel died inside me. I no longer see humanities future as being among the stars, and I can’t even say that its terribly disappointing to me. I’m still curious and glad that we do things to figure out our world, I think we should fill the sky with telescopes. The narrative of space colonization just doesn’t sell to me. Manifest destiny has always been wicked.

3·11 days agoI’m still new here and to Linux and the whole age verification thing read to me as over-reactionary internet behavior you find all over reddit. No real underlying reason to make such a fuss other than to virtue signal to other linux users how security minded you are. Just makes the whole community look ridiculous.
