Is the Justice Department planning an exposé on water being wet next?

You also have to consider the audience Trump is trying to please. Who is going to pull more people? Steve Mnuchin talking about Trump glowingly or a clown wrestler that Trump's fans remember as a childhood hero backing their pick?

As someone who frequently interacts with the tech illiterate, no they don't. This sudden rush to put weighed text hallucination tables into everything isn't that helpful. The hype feels like self driving cars or 3D TVs for those of us old enough to remember that. The potential for damage is much higher than either of those two preceding fads and cars actually killed poeple. I think many of us are expressing a healthy level of skepticism toward the people who need to sell us the next big thing and it is absolutely warranted.

If Ohio Dems don't use the holy grail they are being handed next year to oust these state level races, they are as braindead as the national party.

I'm about five miles from my work with OK bike infrastructure to get there. My problem is every dickhead rolling coal on a lifted F350 seems to think I'm worth 500 points. Until they either protect the biking infrastructure or hit these people driving massive vehicles with some real pentalities for driving like idiots, I'll have to keep using my car for safety.

I don't identify as a communist. I just don't want life to be unreasonably difficult for people. Thats it. I just what the promise of what labor was supposed to be. I want it to free us from the shackles of work or die. Guess that is extreme left now even with tankies around the corner from us.

In the marketplace of ideas, rightwing thoughts will be mocked, as they always should been...

That's the loophole for the 13th amendment. We all get convicted of theft because we steal to survive then they put us back in our same jobs as wards of the state for no pay. It's the real long game.

You have to look at the whole compensation package...

No, I don't. I can't feed my family with an EAP program or a 401(k) that will disappear with the next robber baron of Wall st, or a marginally better healthcare. The world still runs on dollars and cents and until we all get our fair share, we need to be coming for these corpo-clowns.

I was just standing there, looking at my bathroom and figured out that my bathroom is 2x3 square room based on the Dubs Hygiene mod fixtures. I have over 900 hours in the game. Am I broken? lol

My wife thinks I'm insane but, what experience do you have with baby monitors and what steps did you take with commercial products to make sure they weren't vulnerable like most IoT garbage out there?

I havent been following this closely but I wanted to see if any of the Clevelanders have an opinion.

I got caught up in this nonsense. Hopefully, we can get ODOT to pay out for the damage.

I was starting to wonder if any conservative knew how to read anymore. This shouldn't be a controversial take on an amendment specifically built to stop traitors.

So, I got curious and set my feed to all. Wow, there a lot of arguments about defederation due to the Beehaw decision. Many Many people positing on "the death of Reddit" and the refugee crisis. I get some of the concerns about moderation and ideology but the amount of navelgazing is unreal. Ill just stick to local for a bit until things settle down.

So, how are you finding the big, wide fediverse outside of our pleasant little pocket? With all of the thinkpieces being posted about how Lemmy is never going to work, I wanted to see some fresh takes from the good folk at midwest.social.

Beginners guides (midwest.social)

Hi all. Does anyone in the community have a good beginners guide? I'd like to learn how to do this and don't have a great resource.

I do the Nixon Aroooo on command like a trained seal.

Hi all. I'm a member of the NCMC and wanted to let all you fine folk know we are performing in Cleveland soon. If you are local or just looking for an excuse to visit Cleveland. Come by and join us!
