An armed dog ate my home work

Good read, thanks!

That’s a fair point. But in a world that values money above all else, that’s not just a divide in wealth and ownership but a divide in power.

I recently heard it phrased like this:

Capitalism is built on hierarchy, which means someone fundamentally NEEDS to be at the bottom. There is no way around it, someone needs to suffer.

How does something like this not show up in tests?

Did you miss the part where OP said this was in Dubai? I don’t think the commenter you’re replying to carries that view.

In Saudi Arabia, for example, it is illegal to carry sex toys or alcohol even when transiting.

Control + Arrows also moves your text cursor by whole words. Combine it with shift and you can easily select a bunch of text without the mouse.

Another one that took me far too long to learn: Shift + Tab will do the same thing as tab (next element) in reverse

Not hot but „lauwarm“ or „lukewarm“ is very typical for same day fresh potato salad

At least down here in the south

Putin-fanboys love to say “Ukraine needs to negotiate an end to this war” but like to forget that this war started because RuZZia shat on a treaty ensuring the sovereignty of Ukraine in exchange for their nuclear arms.

This but I just gave them my email to let me know when bands I like are in my area. Super easy to use and very reliable. Even has tiny shows in community centers listed for me

Makes sense, thanks for the explanation

lol why not just not use the middle mouse button? Did you remap it to something else?

As a kid (maybe 6-8) at the beach. My dad was on the shore and I waded out and kept going further and further, until the sand bank fell off and I dropped what felt like 5m underwater and couldn’t find my way back. I wasn’t a bad swimmer but panic set in and I got disoriented. Felt like I was treading water for 15 minutes but it was more like 3 until a family friend saw what was happening and made it out to me to pull me back to the shore.

California Zephyr, the flagship passenger route between Chicago and San Francisco has an average delay of 17 hours

Germany too, barely went higher than 25 and rained for days at times, something I haven’t experienced here in the southwest for half a decade or so at least. Definitely not this long at this time of year

I read recently that Germany is missing so much groundwater in some regions, that it would have to rain constantly for a year and a half just to get refilled.

I deleted the other comment first, when I realized I didn’t reply to the comment asking for more info, and then posted this. Perhaps something fucky with how lemmy served the page to you or deleted the post?

Bit of a longer TLDR including context, I’ll call it a TLDDD (too long, didn’t deep dive):

Doreen was a moderator of /r/antiwork, she went on Fox News to present the subreddit and why it was so interesting to so many. This wasn’t agreed upon by the community or the other moderators.

Fox immediately tried to frame it as people just sucking off the teat of “corporate america” and not wanting to work. In reaction to this, Doreen failed to actually make any arguments that a Fox News viewer would understand and even played directly into the propagandist’s hands by using out of context philosophies like “laziness is a virtue” and saying that she worked as a dog walker.

On top of this, Doreen was incredibly unpresentable in the video and looked like your average, basement-dwelling netizen, sitting in a dimly lit room with a 2010s webcam. For the right-wingers at fox, she was the perfect image of what they imagine leftists to be like:

• Trans
• Autistic
• Socialist
• Unkempt
• No “real” job (dog walker)

Here’s a screenshot from the interview to give you an idea of what I mean by unkempt and unpresentable
