tymon,

$40,000 would pay off all debts for me and my wife, and allow us finally catch our breath. The monthly payments have been annihilating us for years, and neither of our careers have recovered since COVID.

It feels like an endless tunnel.

tymon,

Not knowing it was plant-based, I got a monstrous jumbo something-or-other burger from Monty’s Good Burger in LA.

Honestly I almost freaked out at how good it was, and even went back to the place just to tell them it was the best burger I ever had.

It’s the one thing pulling me west

The rich get richer / The poor get poorer / When our time comes / No guilt for the horror

or maybe

The planet is burning / We die of starvation / Abolish the wealthy / And claim our salvation

or maybe

One, two, buckle my shoe / Three, four, overthrow the 1% and bring about a socialist utopia, etc

tymon,

This is so dope!

tymon,

oh boy oh boy oh boy I can’t wait to recut this show

in all seriousness though this looks incredibly dope and I cannot WAIT to watch

tymon,

here’s hoping they both immediately trip and hit their heads on sharp corners

tymon,

hell yeah

tymon,

HALLELUJAH

tymon,

Thanks so much!

The 1080p version is downloadable via the MEGA link above - if you can’t download it from MEGA natively, try using jdownloader (linked in description)

tymon,

I’ll look into that, I’ve never made a torrent before! Thanks for the tip

tymon,

This is exquisite

tymon,

That’s because Threads’ entire userbase is baked into an app that almost everyone already has. It says absolutely nothing about the quality or featureset of the app, much less scalability and actual use.

I just tried Threads for about fifteen minutes. Currently, it's overwhelming and... not good.

Every single Threads user is displayed in your home feed, with zero option to only show content from people you’re following. Hashtagging doesn’t work yet, and most profile edits need to be done from your Instagram account, which clearly demonstrates that Threads isn’t so much a Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky competitor as much...

tymon,

You ever been kinda bored before?

tymon,

Having had three root canals in the last two months, I’m gonna have to disagree with you there.

But yeah, I’m not planning on actually using Threads. It sucks.

tymon,

… what?

EDIT: ah, you’re referencing the bottles in the photo, ha. Yeah, that’s true, but that photo was taken in 2009 and is inextricably linked with the album. Such is life.

Glad you enjoyed the tracks <3

What "third generation" Trek is worth watching? (kbin.social)

I started with Star Trek after watching the Star Trek (2009) movie in college. After that I went wild watching everything I could since I was young with loads of time. I watched most of TOS, all of TNS, all of DS9, all of Voyager, all of Enterprise and all of the movies. I then stopped since I didn't have the time and wasn't...

tymon,

As a purist, I'd say watch them all and in release order, but if you really have to be choosy with your time, here's a list of things you can skip (in my opinion):

  • Star Trek Into Darkness
  • Discovery (whole show)
  • Picard S1 and S2
  • Short Treks

I know suggesting skipping Discovery outright is going to be seen as... extreme, but I suggest doing so only if time is a crucial factor. It's a dizzyingly uneven show with the lowest points of quality in all of Trek. However, it also has some incredible highs and some truly great characters, so if you find the time to watch it, you should. And I know I'm in the minority on this, but I found Short Treks to be unwatchable.

On the flip side, Lower Decks is incredible, and Strange New Worlds is good. The third season of Picard is excellent. Prodigy is a little weird but it's got a lot of strength. Star Trek Beyond is also a surprisingly good movie.

tymon,

Okay, I'll give you Code of Honor.

tymon,

it's so weird, the lemmy.world instances aren't showing up for me in my searches. Maybe it's a server thing

tymon,

Thanks - how do I actually access that? When I copy that into the community search, nothing comes up except for your comment, and it's not showing up in google

Help: I'm dealing with hundreds of ripe plums

Last fall I moved into an apartment with a plum tree in the front yard. I don't know anything about plants or trees or fruit, and now that summer is here there are hundreds of plums dangling off this tree. They're attracting millions of ants, as well as raccoons, possums, rats, and a few bold humans who I've caught plucking from...

tymon,

Having never made a jam or a jelly of any kind, I'm hesitant to try this, but it might be a good option. Do you have a favorite plum jam recipe?

tymon,

It never even occurred to me to put a sign up advertising the bounty of the tree. This might be simplest. But on the off chance no one takes me up on that, I'll still have almost 300 plums. I'll check out that webzone, thanks

tymon,

Holy shit. This might be the winner

tymon,

I swear If i'm about to be sucked into some looking-glass or magical shoe I'm gonna be pissed

tymon,

I probably should have planned for this weeks ago. Things are gonna get sticky

tymon,

This is such a uniquely bizarre bummer. WHY would they remove the show from the platform? I seriously don't understand that at all. Cancelling it, while a terrible move, at least has some potentially extant reasons - but it's literally a new Star Trek show and they're removing it from Star Trek's home? I seriously don't get it!

tymon,

This is a pretty dogshit take, homie.

tymon,

Any time you make any amount of money, put 5% of it into a savings account. If you don't have a savings account, make one. If you can't make one, put the money somewhere safe in your house.

5% doesn't sound like a lot, and for broke/poor people it can often mean the difference between eating that day or not, but if you're able to do it, really seriously do it. I recently calculated where I'd be right now if I had done that, and I would have saved over $20,000 in the last 15 years if I had listened to my own stupid advice.

Also, wear moisturizing sunscreen every single day.

tymon,

You too can be a Cracker

Where can we suggest (or ask for, or vote on) feature/design changes to Lemmy?

For example, it's a tiny bit of a pain to quickly and cleanly access subscribed communities. There's a "subscribed communities" box beneath the right-hand sidebar for the instance you're in, but it seems to me like it should be a stickied item on the left-hand side of the screen, like this:...

tymon,

Maybe they could all try a submersible? Nice and compact, doesn't take up much space, will kill them, etc
