wwaxwork,

Yes but you need flu shots so I’m not sure what point you are trying to make here.

wwaxwork,

She thinks of the toys as her babies. Do they squeak? That can often trigger that reaction from female cats.

wwaxwork,

Give them time to lobby and get a friendlier judge and try again.

wwaxwork,

Oh no public money now has to be used to do all those things Disney paid for, leading to higher taxes. Yeah we showed them.

wwaxwork,

I believe the NRA is involved in money laundering for the Russian mob and Trump ran for office to do the same thing, launder money through donations and by paying for advertising for donations with dirty money and getting clean clean donations back.

wwaxwork,

I think it’s more a case that every other thing they’ve accused the Democrats of, at some point in history ends up being true for Republicans of one sort or another. This is the only accusation that so far hasn’t appeared to be a projection, I think the poster suspects that it is, we just haven’t found it yet.

wwaxwork,

It wouldn’t’ be so bad if they actually knew anything about their founding fathers. Maybe did a little research on them, but the ones that idolise them the most know almost nothing about them.

wwaxwork,

10 years last July almost 400k karma. I’d like to say I left for all sorts of noble reasons to do with awards or API, but mostly I just left because Lemmy is a nicer space to hang out in and reminds me of my early days on the internet with BBSs and the like. On Reddit as an older woman we are constantly made aware it’s not a space where we are really wanted, though there are a lot more of us on there in our own little niches than I think a lot of younger male users realise. So I’m here hoping Lemmy will continue to feel more open to everyone, and if it doesn’t hell I’ll start a server for us old farts.

wwaxwork,

Not a lot of people realise that the lidocaine you get at the dentists also contains epinephrine to make it last long. Which can play merry hell with your blood pressure. I can’t have epinephrine for other medical reasons besides the way it messes with your blood pressure and honestly I prefer it, I’m numb long enough to do the surgery and it’s all gone in half an hour or so instead of a numb face for half the day.

wwaxwork,

Top 6 Hours seems to change the most for me so that’s the one I use, I only check out Lemmy a couple of times a day with my morning and afternoon coffees. Active when I want to deep dive into comments. and if I was here all the time then new would be my sort preference.

wwaxwork,

Would you pay what it costs to make. Because they make them, but you’re not going to find them at Best Buy on an 18 month payment plan. They’re going to start at $7k on steep sale for the smallest model if you’re lucky and work their way up in price. Everyone wants long lasting products, they just want them in made in China out of plastic component prices.

Do people just not use the YouTube subscription feed?

I consistently hear people on YouTube complain that the subscribe button doesn’t do anything for viewers, now that channel notifications are controlled by the bell. But it does do something: it puts the videos from that channel in your subscription feed, which is readily accessible on all versions of YouTube. So why do people...

wwaxwork,

I have 986 subscriptions, most are small creators that don’t post often. I have notifications for the key ones that I really don’t want to miss.

wwaxwork,

Algorithms and AI. Rage gets views, so it’s what gets pushed to the top, so it gets even more views, so it gets pushed to the top.

wwaxwork,

Cool opinion, just explain to me how say a mother of 3 that can’t find or afford a sitter is supposed to vote? Or her husband who is working 2 jobs to pay rent is supposed to find time? How about the elderly that don’t have a car? The handicapped? What if I have a contagious disease? I should just turn on up to a busy polling booth and spread my TB all over the place? Or am immunocompromised and could die from a cold, probably spread by that sick person that had to turn up to vote? All those people lose their right to vote because they can’t get to a polling place on the one day they allow voting? You are removing their rights why?

wwaxwork,

Stay at home wife. I used to work as a bookkeeper, now dealing with some health issues. However I am 55 and have used computers since as long as i can remember, I learned how to use punch cards in what you yanks would call middle school. So I don’t work in tech, but it doesn’t bother me to learn new things. Lemmy reminds me of the good old days of BBS and just trying things out to see what stuck.

wwaxwork,

My mother was a hippy before I was born, marched in every march going when I was a kid. Anti war, greenpeace, Land Rights the works. The last thing she did on her drive to the hospital for what would turn out to be her last time, was post in her postal vote for gay marriage rights. She was 74 years old. You don’t get more conservative as you get older unless you choose to.

wwaxwork,

Meh. Only one party wants to take away my rights or stop my friends from getting married because they’re both women, make birth control illegal, kill people for performing in drag and let 12 year olds get married. . Your idea of “just as bad” is a little strange.

wwaxwork,

Always better to date someone that thinks you have rights.

wwaxwork,

I agree it sucks.

wwaxwork,

I’m waiting for it to start

wwaxwork,

How many did they have when they were the age Lemmy is now?

wwaxwork,

It would provide more insight than comparing their current figures. When Uber started, if you compared the number of people that got taxis in those first months to Ubers numbers you’d have bet on Uber to be out of business in months.

What is going on with the Lemmy world front page?

Is it a problem for everyone or just me? I’m getting a weird gif and the site name has been changed to left corner but the address is still the same. I do not know enough about computers or the federverse to know what is happening, I’m old enough that I came from a time when everything got hacked all the time and am just...

wwaxwork,

Well this bodes well for Threads.

wwaxwork,

But you can’t close your threads account without closing your instagram account.

wwaxwork,

I call that sticker the “I’m a racist and a wife beater” confessional sticker.

wwaxwork,

Ask them. “You sound angry/sad/frustrated” are you just wanting to vent? Because I can relate to that feeling and I’m all ears."

wwaxwork,

Preaching is the assumption others want to hear about your religion. It’s a bit like being a Magic the Gathering Fan boy. You’re going to tell everyone about it even though their eyes are glazed over and they have tried to change the subject 3 times in the past 5 minutes. Live a life that makes people go, hey why are you so kind and generous and loving I want to know about that, then answer their questions, otherwise you’re just another boring fanboi prattling on.

wwaxwork,

Friendly reminder Biden lost the battle but he hasn’t lost the war. He is currently working out an income related savings plan and doing a hail mary long shot roundabout come in the back door play using the Authority he has from the Higher Education Act to create debt forgiveness regulation. He’s still out there trying, though anything through the Dept of Education will take a while because of how policy works there.

wwaxwork,

It's something we haven't seen at the the movies for a while. A nice fun action romp. Think what Marvel films used to be at the start when they were self contained stories and not just set up for the next movie. It somehow manages to be exactly like a D&D game while also being completely enjoyable even if you don't know what D&D is.

wwaxwork,

That was my first though, you can pee with a she wee but pooping on the trail in a mixed group is a pain.
