what’s this obsession republicans have with calling people “bad guys”? JD vance said it at least 5 times during the debate, and i’ve noticed it being used more in general. aside from republicans, i’ve only seen it used in jokes

definitely counts

notice how sweden is not included in the norwegian flag

i think nintendo would be more likely to sue the archaeologist instead of asking for 60$. especially considering the fact that they’re suing people for using emulators for consoles that they don’t even support anymore

does this mean the twitter brand is up for grabs? anyone can start up a new website at twitter dot com? musk’s letting go of it completely?

that’s not really a problem if the judge simply changes their name

real phones with counterfeit parts resulting from third party repairs doesn’t seem that surprising given how restrictive apple is about providing authentic repair parts. i would not be surprised if this turns out to be another case of them shooting themselves in the foot because they got too greedy.

the whole “there are two sides to every issue” mantra that i hear so many people use in everyday life has got to be contributing to this. i think a lot of people view the “two sides thing” as a tautology, and that enables them to more easily “pick a side” on things, assuming that both sides always have some merit to them. and some people use it to avoid picking sides entirely, because if they make something seem complicated enough then they don’t have to actually say anything meaningful about it.

i would really like to see that mantra disappear altogether, or at the very least have people stop using it as an excuse for not having a well founded opinion. it does seem like people don’t let it slide very much on lemmy though, which is nice.

its called a nature reserve because its a piece of nature thats reserved to be used as a golf course in the future

getting a rabies shot in the US is a pain in the ass, but it’s definitely still worth doing. (speaking from experience)

when i got the first shot, they gave me like 3-4 other shots too, but it was for a cat bite so mileage may vary on that part. i went to the ER for the first shot because you need to get it within 24 hours. at the ER, i found out that the ER was the only place i could get it (at least where i was, not sure if that is true nationwide). and i had to go back to the ER 3 times for follow up shots, each on a specific day. and each time i had to wait 3-4 hours for a 5 minute shot.

absolutely still worth doing though. the rabies numbers are crazy. 100% chance to die if you have rabies and no vaccine. 0% chance to die with the vaccine.

i also found out that there are pre-exposure and post-exposure rabies vaccines, and the pre-exposure ones only require 3 shots and can be gotten at a pharmacy, but the post-exposure ones require an ER visit. (again, this might vary from state to state)

would hate to have to buy new bibles the next time the school gets shot up

what if we instead built a tiny dome around each and every goose

i gave up on gentoo when the updates started making my laptop so hot that i had to point my bedroom fan at it in college. i was thinking of doing LFS but by that point gentoo was turning into such a headache and i wanted something simpler. i switched to arch afterwards, but now i mainly just use macos and let tim handle all that stuff for me. although i’m tempted to try arch again when im done with grad school and have more time

mine as well. it was awful

i think the gentoo pacman looking guy is cool

computer science exams must have been so easy for you

i chose my first linux distro based on difficulty (gentoo). needless to say it took me two weeks to get my computer to boot up and load i3 without problems.

and why do you think they needed help with their math and reading homework? exactly…… because all they’re taught in school is how to be transgender

what are the “valid republican talking points” that you’re referring to?
