I love how you can have a really complicated problem and it can be solved with such a simple premise.

It’s just such a basic idea that’s obvious in hindsight.

The government really needs to grow some balls and get better with this stuff.

Just draw some lines on a map. Offer everyone 1.3x the value of their house (or however much) and take it off them. For the greater good.

And Israeli bots (probably IDF and Pro-Israelis too)

Seriously I just discovered this. Go search any random Gaza/Palestine/Israel post you will see -50 for someone saying “Israel has killed children and should stop killing children” and like +300 for “this article is so biased it’s taking about Israeli attacks but no mention of how Hamas is the real cause of this death”.

I’m not even going to bother to link because I want people to see for themselves rather than it looking like I’m selecting the worst if it.

I’m talking about this

we already have a word for “female person”, and that’s “woman”

Female person doesn’t mean women.

The word has changed so it’s not correct to say that.

This just seems women are more touchy about this stuff then men.

Someone called me out on reddit for using the word girls for women and it was sexist because it is infantising, and it was stupid because they were making out I don’t call men boys. When I absoultely do, in fact I do it more than the alternative. Really the only way I was sexist on that is that I don’t do it as much as I do with men so if anything I should do it more.

But you can’t win, someone’s always going to be offended

Now, you could get around it by calling someone “a female person” - except that we already have a word for “female person”, and that’s “woman”.

We did have a word that meant that and everyone knew it. But that word has changed into something else.

No problem. Let me know how you get on and if you like it.

Well that’s a niche request, didn’t really expect such niche questions to come up on Lemmy. But what’s even more surprising is I can answer.

I set my phone up on D. But I have only connected it to one device currently.

I’ve only had the controller less than a week but it’s legitimately amazing. I was expecting some version of a crappy player two console you bought in a store that’s doesn’t really work or feel right. But also being make of the crappest lightest Chinese shit possible.

The controller feels perfect honestly. Edit: maybe a little on the small side but that’s it.

Are you from the Blizzard gaming forums?

Started eating a shit tonne of rice.

Losing weight really isn’t that hard. It’s calories in verses calories out. If that doesn’t work, congratulations you are breaking the laws of thermodynamics and physics is changed forever.

I just took out some higher calorie food and ate a lot more chicken and rice and the weight dropped off kinda scary fast seeing as I was eating 4 meals a day. Ended up adding extra calories with eggs and was more comfortable with sauces.

Another time I took up surfing. Fucking hell surfing is hard, running 10 miles is easier. Increased my food load and ate a crap load more protein and just changed shape in a few months, lost the fat around my tummy and my shoulders grew huge.

The world has got far more serious.

My comment was obviously exaggerating for effect. You’d have to be stupid to think I meant there are no jokes anymore.

The 90’s were just better.

People could have a joke and a laugh without everyone being so serious about everything and getting offended.

I dunno maybe my friends were too stupid to manage it.

But I got told you couldn’t get it on there and you couldn’t get it off their.

I didn’t see the point. Didn’t seem like owning it, seemed like apple owned it.

Not always. Consumers given choice they should go for the product that is best. That way companies have to make the best product. That’s competition working.

Like when ps3 offered free online but xbox didn’t. That killed the xbox market as everyone could choose a similar product that was cheaper.

Or when apple forced everyone to use their products people went to the Samsung because you could do what you want. That killed apple.

Or when some companies offered subscription model like Microsoft Office, everyone went to alternatives and that killed Microsoft Office.

Honestly I blame people. We had all the information and just laughed in the face of reason. We are choosing to spend more for a shittier product.

I honestly don’t get why people use apple. People have explained it to me and I think I just don’t get the reasoning.

People would tell me on the age of illegally downloaded or someone legally bought mp3s apple was better because you can’t play your mp3s you have to buy them again off apple. Or that apple is better because you can’t use something and instead have to use apples device which isn’t as good and more expensive but it’s white! Like I can’t get a fucking white one.

The walled garden is shit. Apple makes me angry.

I wish I could view other instances as a guest. I love the voyager app so much but it doesn’t seem I can do this.

I don’t want ro set up loads of accounts just to browse.

I’m on lemm.ee which I think has de federated with a lot but still got the tankie subs. So I’ll be interested to know what I’m missing. Lemmy.world needs my email so that one can fuck off. Don’t know what else to choose.

A fighting game where you play an average Greek soldier on his way to becoming a hero.

It starts where you have to kill 5 enemies in a battle and you get promoted. Then you have to kill 10 etc.

You can upgrade your hero and the soldiers fighting under you. So you can choose to become a powerful lone hero or a hero and his men. If you don’t kill enough of the enemy you don’t advance. But if you go on a rampage and the battle is lost you also lose. Your performance influences the battle. So it might be that holding a bridge is more important than total kills for example.

This but you can import real world cities.

There a few towns near me in all different valleys. I wonder if you could mine a tunnel through the valleys. Would be interesting to try it out.

You said nuclear can produce 24/7. As in thats why its better than renewables. The issue you speak of is supply matching demand right? Renewable don’t match demand. Well neither does nuclear.
