Who's winning the war in Ukraine?

The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large...

jaamesbaxterr,

Don’t forget the defense contractors. People who make and sell weaponry and other war products are always the biggest winners.

jaamesbaxterr,

True. Death is the great equalizer. Nobody gets out of this world alive. Lol

jaamesbaxterr,

Haha thanks I didn’t notice the spelling error

jaamesbaxterr,

My grandpa had a million one liners, most were somewhat inappropriate but here’s a fun one. He’d say, “Did anyone get hurt in that wreck?” To any of my friends that drove over. When they inevitably asked “what wreck?” He’d say, “the one you pulled up in.” This was devastating to the ones who were super proud of their cars. Lol

jaamesbaxterr,

Not like, all the time but fairly often. Especially if one is sleeping and another comes to snuggle up, there will usually be some chirp/trill talking while they get settled.

jaamesbaxterr,

It’s Axiom Verge, maybe Axiom Verge 2? This picture is from last winter and I played both, one after the other so I’m not sure which it was. Both are great if you enjoy Metroidvania style games.

jaamesbaxterr,

Hahaha. Yeah I really lucked out with all three of these dudes. Bandit loves to sit with me but never ON me. Usually between the legs or squished up next to the outside of a leg. Noki is mostly the same but it’s not as common. Scooter will walk all over you for a few minutes and get pets but then he likes to go lay down just out of reach. He likes his space. Oh and they are all super chill about belly rubs, no traps just legit belly rubs. Lol

jaamesbaxterr,

Awesome, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

jaamesbaxterr,

All 3 of my cats like it but Noki REALLY likes it. I pat him as hard as you would a large dog and he just purrs and leans into it.

jaamesbaxterr,

I’m viewing this through the Liftoff app and your username has big block letters and a blue circle for the O but looks normal when viewed from other apps. Is that some customization you can do that only shows up if an app supports it?

jaamesbaxterr,

Sorry to hear that. Boy they really do look similar! I’ve got another cat also called Bug (Scooter Bug) You can see him if you look at my post history from yesterday

jaamesbaxterr,

I tried Thunder yesterday and it also has that feature.

jaamesbaxterr,

Does liftoff do it from the comment section? I haven’t tried it. And if so does that interfere with your upvote/downvote swipes? (If it has that) I tried turning off the upvote/downvote swipes on thunder and it still wouldn’t let me swipe out of a post from the comments but now that I think about it, I wouldn’t want that unless it was only just one half of the screen so I could still upvote. I keep going back to Voyager because it feels like Apollo and I’m hoping they’ll emplement the swipe back at least from the post portion soon. I’ve got like 5-6 apps for Lemmy on my iPad. It’s pretty great we’re getting so much to choose from.

jaamesbaxterr,

It’s not just you. I just tried to download it and it said the same thing. I’m on an ipad mini 6 with ipadOS 16.6

jaamesbaxterr,

He is so hard to photograph sometimes! Lol. Sometimes I’ll take a picture of him and it just looks like a pile of pure void.

jaamesbaxterr,

I try to post everyday, so you’ll be seeing these guys!

jaamesbaxterr,

He’s got the snowshoes too https://i.imgur.com/TjXMjRV.jpg

jaamesbaxterr,

I don’t have to worry about that kind of stuff with him or his older brother too much. It’s the youngest one that paws at stuff, he’s very curious but thankfully hasn’t figured out how to get up there.

Twitter Sues Hate-Speech Research Group Over Claims That Hateful, Racist Content Has Proliferated Under Musk’s Ownership (variety.com)

Twitter filed a lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate. “Despite our continued progress, the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its backers have been actively working to assert false and misleading claims encouraging advertisers to pause investment on the platform. X is a free public service funded...

jaamesbaxterr,

Duh. To make sure you are getting just the right amount of Musk in your life! /s

jaamesbaxterr,

It’s been amazing for me. It actually helped me slash through a bunch of my backlog. Games I’ve finished on deck: Aperture Desk Job, Axiom Verge 1&2, Braid, Bro Force, Darq, Deaths Door, Eternal Hope, Guacamelee 2, Inside, Journey, Limbo, Ori 1&2, Portal 1&2, Shady Part of Me, Stanley Parable, Stella, Stray, Trine 1,2,3&4, Unbound (Worlds Apart), Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves (so 4 & Lost Legacy), Vesper, and Yooka-Laylee. Currently playing Hollow Knight. Performance has been great, even played Sea of Thieves with friends online and it was solid. I go through periods where I don’t play much but with the deck it seems easier to just fire something up and dive in. Especially because of quick resume.

jaamesbaxterr,

Here’s an after glow-up https://i.imgur.com/I34IOov.jpg

jaamesbaxterr,

I haven’t had to deal with the size limit, when posting from the Voyager app it has imgur built in so I just add the photo and it posts to imgur and links it for me. There’s just no option to add another photo that I could see. That’s ok though, I’m just happy that all these devs are constantly updating and making things easier to use. I’ve been seeing your username around, always gives me a smile!

jaamesbaxterr,

It’s like growing up but also becoming more handsome/pretty. Lol. I also posted a comment with an image of him after he grew into his current handsome self.

jaamesbaxterr,

I was gonna say… With Lemmy it’s more likely that it’ll just fail to post comment, but I’m willing to deal with that as the fediverse grows. Devs are working hard to smooth things out so I’m ok with a bit of jank here. Fuck reddit though.

jaamesbaxterr,

Yes he is! He was mostly white and kinda runty looking when we adopted him but his color came in beautifully. At some point I’ll post some before and after glow-up pics.

Looking for suggestions for a place to move in the US as a remote employee

So the work I do is 100% remote now. I moved to Southern California because of an industry that has in part moved to remote work. My only requirements are a temperate climate, nature access and hopefully a blue-ish state. Is there a place out there that makes sense financially? I’m hoping to buy a house less then 500k. I...

jaamesbaxterr,

Lol. Not even a minute after I answered that, I was stumped by someone saying MD. Took me a minute to remember Maryland exists. Also there’s a large part of the population that hears New Mexico and assumes that since it has Mexico in the name it can’t possibly be a state in the US.
