Such is the beauty of lemmy

“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

Aha see you are wrong because I grew up with the rage comics and now they are forever cringe so that means you are factually and objectively wrong good day sir

The sun’s core being filled with a quark plasma soup instead of, for example cotton candy, is also an assumption that is not evidence-based.

It’s almost like we as humans can use logic and reason to determine things to be extremely significantly probable without having proof in our hands.

This line of thinking is what let’s wage thieves sleep at night.

I would probably just kill myself out of embarrassment tbh, to a seppuku thing because I have dishonored myself

Proud of u son

I just use ublock with Firefox, I’m fine with the baked in ads on Firefox I don’t mind supporting them. Considering what the other option is, I want to support them.

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

I bought the pre release, got bored so quickly and never logged more than 2 hours for many many years. I thought they wouldn’t actually keep updating it but they did which is very cool.

Now whenever I open the game to give it a try they force me to get all of this shit I don’t want like a freight thing and I need to build a base and it’s like dude I thought the whole idea was that you could do whatever you want, and then you force me to do all this tutorial shit that I don’t care about? I can’t get into it.

The tutorials should be optional, I wanna explore the universe with just my ship and be a drifter for a while before I find a home planet I like to make my base, I wanna worry about freighters once I’ve experienced the rest of the game not right away. I want to learn the updates at my own pace but it won’t let me so I gave up on it.

Firefox ftw

He’s looking to get that good ol’ fashioned German eugenics going again.

I paid for Netflix, cancelled it and got Disney+ instead when they cracked down on password sharing. I am more than happy to end my subscription to Disney and go full pirate, I don’t care and I live in Canada so I’ll never face repercussions.

I’d love to support the creatives but seeing all these strikes it’s not like the execs are paying them livable wages anyways. They complain about not making enough money on streaming then vote to increase just the executives pay by insane margins annually, I can see through your deception execs.

If you are going to hoard your wealth so will I, and when the economy dies cause we are all hoarding our pennies I won’t feel bad for you while you look up from the bounds of the guillotine.

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

His lawyers, some of his staff in the white house and kid rock

Say no to toothbrushes with wrenches

Unfortunately not, this was 2 years ago now. Nothing to do but move on 😕

Yeah I often joke that natives are the black people of Canada, but it’s sad there’s still so much injustice for natives here in Canada. My best friend was killed by a truck driver while he was trying to ride his bike to work in the morning and they never even charged the guy, as far as I know he’s still driving around. Burying him was more painful than having a kidney stone and the fact that he won’t see justice because he’s native and cops don’t care is just salt on the wound.
