Sometimes I think it’d be funny if there were a single billionaire on Lemmy watching us make fun of them. Google says there are like 2600 billionaires in the world. I imagine that’s pretty unlikely, tho.
But hey - if there are zero billionaires on lemmy, that means we have ourselves a billionaire-free zone!
I ll start : I have been following a pretty known tech/Linux journalist, and always found he is a fun dude to listen to, with interesting tech takes...
Probably a stupid question, but did they have to change the original joke for it to translate into English? I don’t know any Portuguese, just curious if the play on “battery” works in both languages
Definitely. I started out at a private 4 year, then transferred to the community college back home. I always heard the school had a shaky reputation, but my experience here has been a thousand times better than the private university. (Not to say it’s for everyone, but it’s absolutely a better fit for me). But if I do decide to go for a BA, it’ll have to be at another school, cause they don’t offer any here.
I agree with what you’re saying. I might be wrong here, but I got the impression the person you replied to wasn’t saying that the statement is fictional/wrong, but that the god is fictional
I feel this. I’ve met a few exceptions (including my sister, who is wonderful and my best friend), but much of the time I can only get along with religious people until they find out I’m queer. It’s pretty uncommon, at least where I live, to meet a religious person who’d even want to be friends with me, knowing that.
Oh yeah, I bet fabric would be nice! Leather, too.
Same here for metal and silicone. I tried fitbit a few years ago, but the silicone band and the oddly-shaped face just didn’t feel right. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Oh, definitely! Price is half the game here. It could be the best thing in the world, but if it’s expensive, I’d be too preoccupied with keeping it safe.
My sister keeps asking why I keep using my backpack when it’s literally falling apart at the seams, when I have a perfectly good one in the closet. This is exactly the reason. :)
It’s crazy how much names get garbled through immigration paperwork! My roommate moved from Africa (idk what country), and I’ve always known her as Ndeye (pronounced like “day” in English). Well apparently, that’s not her “real” name! She told me that where she’s from, “Ndeye” is a common title given as a prefix to a girl’s name, and it means something along the lines of “mother.” In her country, everyone called her by her first name. But when she moved here, on her new birth certificate they wrote Ndeye as her first name and her actual first name as her middle name. She told me she just decided to go with it. Ndeye is plenty unique here!
It’s unfathomable to me that they’re so careless with people’s names (like in your story), and that for my roommate, the paperwork meant for immigrants has such a rigid US-style structure. I’ve never met anyone who was especially upset about their name being changed like that, but it seems super messed up to me! 🤷
Course, I guess it’s a relatively smaller problem compared to the rest of the issues with the immigration process. Sorry for the rant lol.
Off topic, but yesterday I tried a tamale for the first time. Apparently they’re a common Christmas food in Mexico, so my boss brought some to our party. The first bite or two were strange (as a very picky US-American), but then it was really good! 10/10 would recommend and all that
