Are Johns (and sex workers) even worth prosecuting? I think the DOJ is interested in a organized prostitution ring and it’s leaders, involved in conspiracy and money laundering, not a few dudes paying for (adult) sex.
We are very excited to let you know now that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you....
That said, it cost 300 million to makes and 5 years to develop. Getting a return in the billions after 10 years is expected, otherwise they might as well save all that time and energy, and massive financial risk, and just buy conservative ETFs with that 300 million and sit at the beach.
I usually prefer hotels too, but I’ve never had this issue. What I don’t like is the extra fess they add though. Makes it hard to compare prices since “per night” has almost no reflection on how much total cost of the stay.
When I was in Rome I had a beautiful apartment for $70 per night with a terrace garden, a balcony, a grill, a full kitchen, a private laundry room, locals cafe, locals bakery. You don’t any of those things with a hotel, and yet mediocre rated hotels in that area were like 5x more.
I used to be in reddit like… All the fucking time. So much in there in so many niche subs you could scroll for hours and not see the same thing twice. Since lemmy is so much smaller and not as built up so much yet I’m not doom scrolling anymore.
Why are you so against people being informed?? Denialism and history revisionism is violent toward the innocent. And enables the guilty.
Killing people and trying to overthrow the government is divisive though. Maybe stop defending the indefensible and we can move forward as a country.
It’s these loser centrists that keep giving the extreme right cover. They did it during the civil rights era, they did during the drug war, they did it when we invaded Iraq. They do it with police brutality. They’re worse than the right. Because they are capable of knowing better but they don’t speak truth, and they don’t stand with those who need them. Selfish with heads in the sand. They seek peace’s between victims and assailants for their own slight and temporary sense of comfort.
The biggest issue with these weapons is when used in areas with civilian populations. If they’re used over tranches in the battlefield, I see less of an issue. Especially as a defensive measure against a conquest invasion.
Why YSK: When you cook meat, any water on the surface must first evaporate before much browning can occur. You want to get as much of a Maillard reaction as possible in the limited cooking time you have before the meat reaches the correct internal temperature. Removing the moisture first means that the heat of the cooking...

I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it’s a bad game. Don’t do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you’ll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent’s cool thing....
Actually the first thing I thought of. Played the fuck out of that game, but kinda always hated it while playing it. Can’t explain why. Was a weird time.
I was banned from Reddit for saying I enjoyed the parts of red dead redemption 2 where you had to kill slave owners and kkk members. Literally said I enjoyed a mainstream video game and the main quest. Inciting violence against polygons in an imaginary world that took place 150 years ago.
My company got rid of their main office and we are never going back to full in-office. And it’s one of the reasons I’m not looking at offers from other companies. I’m happy, and my team is happy.
I’ve not had a good day today. The kids have been shits, my wife has winged at me for not doing something I have already done, I’m hot, tired and stressed from work and fed up of not having a good nights sleep due to my 3 year old waking us up in the middle of the night constantly....
For context, I live in Hong Kong where most people drink tap water after boiling first. Some may install water filter but may still boil the water. Very few drink bottle water unless they’re outside and too lazy to bring their own bottles....
I’ve never boiled tap. It’s safe where I live. I do have a reverse osmosis filter though. But only for taste, and to remove hardness to protect my glassware.
That community will ban anyone who questions their Christi fascist oligarchy. It’s weird how a bunch of pretend communists can worship the an extreme right wing, genocidal, theocracy ran by oil tycoons who run around in yachts while the working class is thrown to meat grinder.
I don’t know anything about iOS shortcuts or share sheets. I would need a step by step to use this. Either way thanks.
Edit trying to get it to work. Will report back.
Edit2: Ok it took me a minute to figure shortcuts app. Kinda weird how it works. But I have it changing the url as it is supposed to. I did learn that 12ft.io doesn’t work with wsj, nyt, or wapo.
I’m a person living in a rural area and have to either go by train, the nearest station being 15 mins away by car and the trains having a schedule that keeps fluctuating....
Or course it is. Also, it’s ok to not literally fuck cars. It’s just a sentiment that we wish cars didn’t have to dominate so much due to poor civic planning.
I’ve been posting on reddit about Reddit blackouts and lemmy a bit lately.
Coincidentally:
I had a 15 year account suspended yesterday. Never an issue. I mentioned in a thread about the video game Red Dead Redemption 2 that it was fun killing slave owning, confederate, non player characters.
Polygons.
In a mainstream video game. Where it’s part of the storyline.
