You'll see the upvotes from all federated instances. Downvotes are not federated evenly. Kbin is like that, I assume fedia.io is the same. I don't see the downvotes I get on Lemmy instances. Sometimes that's a good thing.

Great...the Flying Spaghetti Monster just got it's own version of Satan.

I don't know what's scarier...the fact that there's something worse than toe thumbs, the fact that searching for "sporkfeet" immediately brings up articles about MTG, or the fact that she really does have sporkfeet.

I bought during the height of the housing frenzy in Canada in 2021. Putting any condition on the sale meant that you wouldn't get the house. I found a few issues but took the chance anyways. As soon as the sale went through, I got an inspector in to check out everything I found. I got lucky for the most part, but there were a few things that he found that I didn't. It's better to know these things and plan for them than to be oblivious.

Get the inspection. It's not weird at all. They are all aware of the current situation.

I doubt it. Replica Radio Flyer wagons are popular, and they look metal but are all plastic.

Obligatory "Real users use Hannah Montana Linux" post.

Think of Luke as a religious reformist in a way, rejecting the institutions of a religion while not rejecting the religion itself. He was Martin Luther with a lightsaber.

So he's a splitter...

But seriously, we all know that Lucas was flying by the seat of his pants writing the sequels and that his wife is the real hero of Star Wars. Everything that came afterwards was created by someone else. In the end Lucas's story, Luke still used dark side powers. He called himself "Jedi", but he was simply a Force user with wild ideas about the past. There were no strictly light side users or dark side users anymore. There was simply the Force. If you want to take extended canon into account, Yoda even stated this when he destroyed the last of the Jedi archives. He understood that balance could only be truly restored by letting go of the past.

And everyone will still call it Twitter.

Bring the tire with you when you pay the fine so they can take the boot off. All this does is create an inconvenience instead of immobilizing the vehicle.

What's stops someone from simply changing the tire? This seems like a bad design for a boot.

What he intended and what he showed us are two different things. By the end of ROTJ, there were no more Sith and no real Jedi left. Luke called himself a Jedi, but didn't really follow the strict rules and didn't completely shun the dark side. He simply used it without anger. At that point, balance was truly restored.
