cmbabul,

Which seems a fruitless ambition, the talents required to be great at both are very different, charisma and attractiveness are much more important in the film industry. People will naturally like those stars more because their job is in part to be likable

cmbabul,

Youre right about the violence if he does, but I think its much more likely than anyone wants to admit. I’ll be extremely and pleasently surprised if he doesnt win with the way the wind is blowing

cmbabul,

** unless another huge and horrible news story comes out within said two weeks

Congress approves bill barring any president from unilaterally withdrawing from NATO (thehill.com)

Congress has approved legislation that would prevent any president from withdrawing the United States from NATO without approval from the Senate or an Act of Congress. The measure, spearheaded by Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), was included in the annual National Defense Authorization Act, which passed out of...

cmbabul,

No no you’re right this time will be much worse somehow

cmbabul,

Was there a similar plot line in an episode of the Cumberbatch Sherlock

DeepSouth (www.westernsydney.edu.au)

A supercomputer capable of mimicking the human brain is set to be activated in 2024. The DeepSouth system, developed by researchers at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, uses spiking neural networks to efficiently emulate large networks of neurons, rivaling the rate of operations in the human brain. This...

cmbabul,

Same, im worried as soon as it hits the internet its gonna start playing the banjo music from Deliverance out of every speaker on the planet

cmbabul,

I’ve never really been a truck guy, I also hate driving large vehicles in general and both preferences predate both my knowledge and even belief in climate change(I was raised as an evangelical in the south).

If there was something like a Ranger or an S10 from the mid-late 90s with an electric motor I’d be all over it, fuck put out an electric El Camino and I’d rip my sleeves off on the way to the dealership

cmbabul,

Have we considered trying to breed an army of wolverines to fight against climate change? We could at the very least unleash them on Wall Street and other financial districts

cmbabul,

He gets irritated when we get him anything other than a belt, a wallet, or house shoes. And I gave him house shoes last year so I guess a belt. Which I’m broke so I’m not mad about it

cmbabul,

Not sure if you’re in the US but that seems likely with this sort of question so this is probably untrue for most other countries besides maybe the UK

Until somewhat recently, late 80s I’d reckon, while there obviously were places you could get ‘good’ coffee for enthusiasts, for the vast majority of people coffee was just something you drank to get through the day and stay awake. The folks that grew up and lived in that world have always mocked the ‘fancy’ stuff even when it started growing in popularity. How they define what coffee tastes like is likely harsh and bitter.

Same thing happened to beer, used to be you were a Budweiser, Miller, or Coors person, maybe there’s something similar in your region like Lonestar or Ranier but it’s nothing like today. And there are plenty of older folks that hate everything that isn’t a light American lager. It’s just happens.

Sorry that doesn’t really help you, just adding my thoughts

cmbabul,

What the 80s did to some motherfuckers

cmbabul,

Moved to the PNW from Atlanta, I miss Zaxbys so much

cmbabul,

This, I already never play anything online because it’s not fun to suck, either constantly getting killed in competitive matches or being a drag on my team in coops. And I don’t have the time or energy at the end of the day to do that, but I do like playing games with others

I do feel for the folks that are very good and have to wait long times because that ruins the game for them but is it really an enjoyable competition if you’re just annihilating everyone every match, does that not get boring? Handicapping can keep it interesting for everyone it just needs to be scaled properly

cmbabul,

Yeah the system itself is deeply fucking broken and we all know this, that doesn’t change the fact that shitty but not-fascism is 100% always better than fascism and the best way to defeat fascism is by supporting its strongest competitor currently even though we don’t like them either. Because the the better alternative to fascism is also still a part of the current system that we all know is broken. And while I personally loath the DNC and so many things about our current system of government and how the country behaves, they are still so much better than the losing alternative.

Third party candidates for president are currently unserious because of a litany of reason that have already been pointed out to you and then ignored by you. Money, existing party infrastructure, experienced campaign consultants, brand names, and just the way the majority Americans live their lives politically.

Fucking libertarians and greens can’t get elected for governor in 95% of states, how they hell do they expect to out fundraise and out campaign the two big dogs on a national level to compete in our fucking ridiculously long election cycle which not only serves to prevent alternatives but also to fund the capitalists at the top of media empires as they serve out disinformation to keep the ignorant angry and the informed in fear.

Voting 3rd party in the US for president is in fact throwing your vote away, but this time it comes with the added bonus of potentially being that last legitimate election you get to participate in. Because that’s what Trumps and his fascist friends plans are, it’s been all over this website and the rest of the internet, Project 2025.

If you don’t like the system as it is because it’s inherently unfair and in an advanced state of decay, are in good company, now you have to decide whether you want to try and fix it the peaceful way, which unfortunately involves voting for biden and getting really involved in working for the third party you prefer to build it up and maybe next cycle take one of the top spots because a Trump loss will put the GOP in a position to where that’s a realistic idea. Or the violent way and start a revolution, which I might be in complete favor of if we could ensure the outcome, but we can’t do that because that’s just not how revolutions work

cmbabul,

There are other things we can agree on, like that Riker and Han need to hang out

Heat Index in Brazil Hits 137F (58.5C) (www.okdoomer.io)

It's official, red alerts have gone out across the entire country of Brazil as the heat index hits 137F. The high temperature combined with humidity has made it impossible for most people to carry out their normal lives. There's already reports of power outages. People can't work. They can't run errands. They can barely sleep....

cmbabul,

Anyone read Ministry of the Future

cmbabul,

I see Robert Evans I upvote

cmbabul,

He’s how I found out about the Flipper Zero!

What Lemmy communities would you like to share that we may not know about?

I’m noticing an influx of Reddit users today, maybe revolving around their weird bug they had today. I know this question pops up semi regularly, but for those just getting their foot in the door maybe we can help show them what else is out here on the Fediverse to help them get started....

We need more people so we can properly talk shit

cmbabul,

I have to get ready for work but I fully expect to come back to find ‘the implication’ scene written out with Riker as Dennis and Data as Mac.

cmbabul,

I would love this, put on an audiobook, get stoned, and drive around the alps or Southeast Asia. No traffic and no danger

cmbabul,

Nope! But why would they program the traffic into such a simulation?

cmbabul,

I would not play such a game

cmbabul,

Franklin Richards would frighten Q just by existing

cmbabul,

It would make more sense if he was Doom’s kid that he magic-ed into conception

cmbabul,

I just recently started getting into Star Trek, specifically TNG, and I desperately want a crossover that can never happen between Han and Riker

cmbabul,

Either that or they would become best friends because of shared scoundrel-ness

cmbabul,

The Doctor or Spider-Man

cmbabul,

Maybe every uncle Ben is actually the Doctor, he knows Peter needs the push and just regenerates after

cmbabul,

Kinda wish I knew about this in the mid 2010s when crypto was gaining interest but hadn’t become mainstream

cmbabul,

How about if the company is so large and sewn into the fabric of the modern world then instead of dissolving the company it instantly becomes a public utility, turn the shares into treasury bonds, and jail the executives?

cmbabul,

Leopard face eating moment

cmbabul,

As our greatest thespian Samuel L Jackson once said “Yes they deserve to die! And I hope they burn in hell!”

cmbabul,

Give Dixieland Delight a try, similar vibe

cmbabul,

Well that’s horrifying, I always assumed someone attempting something this potentially destructive would have been put down 100 yards outside the gate

cmbabul,

If I’m not mistaken, this is from The Thirteen Ghosts of Scooby Doo with Vincent Price, Daphne in that series was a big part of my sexual awakening.

cmbabul,

I’m 100% sure there were at least a few movies with Daphne, Shaggy, Scooby, and scrappy, and there was one series with Vincent price. But I could be conflating them, I’m kinda drunk

cmbabul,

The alien cut itself in half fighting the other alien which is why it needed robot parts

cmbabul,

But then what about the frogs?

cmbabul,

And to get rid of the snakes?

cmbabul,

I can’t imagine how difficult those contracts would be to negotiate

cmbabul,

I’m about the other way around, I think Craig is incredibly talented and funny, but Conan puts me on the floor with regularity

cmbabul,

As is the assertion that they require no training

cmbabul,

Maps, the best part of any Bible since whenever they got put there
