My grandma, a high school English teacher, drilled that into my dad’s brain, who in turn drilled it into me. It works so well.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about Clarke's three laws, the most famous of which is the third: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.English2·1 month agoThis is pretty much what I see in Terry Pratchett’s “Discworld” universe.
I’m a simple man. I see a Douglas Adams reference, I upvote.
How dare you say Debian is the best distro! I use it on my work computer and it’s very stable (despite the fact that the flatpak of Ferdium mysteriously stopped working). Clearly the best distro is Manjaro, which I use on my gaming laptop.
God, I can hear this gif so well. One of my favorite songs/music videos.
That’s a fair point. The US empire expanded tremendously after all the war profiteering from WW2, which allowed for the evil that we see today.
I would argue that the British Empire and Belgium were pretty fucking evil long before the US came into existence.
Or it serves as a way to dissipate the smoke smell when breathing out. In my college days, we called it a “sploof.”
Not only am I Jewish too, I’m clergy. I’m very publicly Jewish. My wife thought I was nuts for some time when I told her we have to have an exit plan, but then realized we need it to be safe. I’m more worried about members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ community than I am about us, but I know that the Nazis will come for us too.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•Meta’s pivot to the right sparks boycotts and a user exodus25·3 months agoI dunno man, I didn’t like my time on Nextdoor. Those people were some of the NIMBYest and casually racist people I’ve seen.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.ml•Amnesty International Concludes That Israel Is Committing Genocide in Gaza - The Intercept6·4 months agoI doubt it. I’m a Jewish professional (clergyman) and see how many people in my somewhat liberal congregation are rabid supporters of Israel. For them, this would just be another instance of antisemitism.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Vulkan Video Now Enabled By Default For Radeon VCN2/VCN3 Hardware On Linux11·5 months agoI’m surprised that no one has commented on this. This is great news! It’ll be a couple of years before I build a new desktop, but I’m already looking forward to using an AMD graphics card for the first time in over a decade.
Need…more…JPEG…
Before I watched the GIF, I was thinking “I bet this is in Turkey.” Pretty sure I’m right.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Alarm grows over Trump and Musk’s blizzard of baseless voter-fraud claims3·6 months agoI hate that I think you’re right.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Man arrested after trying to destroy power grid in Nashville7·6 months agoWell yeah, how else are you supposed to start a race war?
Your son has ice in his veins. I’m very impressed.
Yeah, I don’t get it either. I made a store for my website a couple of years ago, and jQuery was crucial for me to handle all the events and triggers. Trying to do it in pure JavaScript looked like a complete nightmare.
GFGJewbacca@lemm.eeto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Somehow USB disks are still the easiest and most reliable way2·9 months agoI like Nextcloud on my TrueNAS scale setup, but for photos I’ve started using Immich. It works extremely well, and does automatic backups of specific folders from your phone. The interface looks nice too.
Hell yeah, love me a fluffernutter. Haven’t had one in years.
