Ian Watkins, singer jailed for child sex offences, ‘stabbed in prison’
  • Obviously not happy to hear about anyone being stabbed but if I had to choose...

  • Exclusive: DeSantis' biggest donor says he won't give more money unless changes are made
  • Rock and a hard place now.

    Ron built himself on being that guy, now its either give up dosh or give up support

  • apnews.com Woman's escape from cinder block cell may have spared others from similar nightmare, FBI says

    Authorities say a man who posed as an undercover police officer kidnapped a woman in Seattle, drove her hundreds of miles to his home in Oregon and locked her in a cinder block cell until she bloodied her hands breaking the door to escape.

    Should I buy A Hat in Time on switch?
  • Idk about switch specifically but it is incredibly well loved on pc with tens of thousands of positive reviews on steam

  • dreaming
  • I presume you could check any timepiece including your phone but idk.

  • The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 27-07-2023
  • Been halfassing Yakuza 3. Really I probably could have plowed through already but ehhh

  • Twitter's rebrand is the next stage in Elon Musk's vision for the company. But does anyone want it? | CNN Business
  • No one wanted it when he tried it with paypal to the point that he got kicked out. No one wants it now but he signs the paychecks so ultimately its his very expensive grave to dig. Seeing billionaires lose money brings me joy so I gotta say these past coupla days have been an absolute serotonin bomb

  • Federal judge strikes down Arizona law limiting recording of police as unconstitutional
  • Within 8 feet I can understand- If you're apprehending someone fucked up out of their mind on whatever drug, you don't want to also worry about what duder with a camera phone might do or what guy your apprehending might do to them in the process of wrangling. Having camera person move to ten or so feet away is a fairly reasonable ask.

    The public spaces in general bit? Bruh. That shits ridiculous.

  • Bucking new law, 10 Oregon senators disqualified from reelection with boycott
  • In Oregon's case the Republicans had been doing their quorum dodge stuff for a few years to prevent progressive legislature and the citizenry got tired of it and voted this change in.

  • It’s trans adults, too: GOP candidates now back trans medical restrictions for all ages
  • They don't have the abortion debate anymore, the gay debate is a bit too mainstream to end well, the gun control debate is always there but not particularly in focus, and they don't have the states (yet) to repeal the 13th.

    So what to rile their base up with? Transphobia and calling their enemies pedophiles, the latter of which is kinda par for the course, but the former is a relatively new patch on the ol' hate quilt.

  • Worst States To Live & Work In. All 10 Are Republican States
  • Literally what’s the difference between this and nazi germany or the CCP?

    me looking at pictures of a gas chamber and a downvote

    I can't tell the difference!

  • Meet Microsoft Office’s new default font: Aptos
  • I'll be long past my last round-up before I give up my comic sans

  • Right-wing misinformers and bad actors have already earned tens of thousands of dollars under Twitter’s new ad revenue sharing program
  • I don’t think Spez or Dorsey started out dumb.

    Can't speak for Dorsey but Spez started out standard libertarian tech dude dumb vis a vis making reddit "free speech" and enabling the jailbait and racism subs to exist.

  • Reddit's crappy app has code for a "get money for your karma" program
  • The caveat there is that at the time there wasn't a invite system. You'd just add mods. So him getting modded there isn't as big a deal as one would think.

    The fact that it wasn't banned until after he was long gone and only then after a CNN piece on it, that should raise an eyebrow.

  • Stop sign broke

    Made some alfredo tonight...
  • Anti-clumping agents are generally put in pre-shredded cheeses, but you can get bags of shredded "melting cheeses" that don't have them though. In my experience that's only a supermercado kinda thing. That said your "good" pre-shredded could also be in that category.

  • ravages of socialism
  • The benzo addiction and russian coma were definitely things that happened. The brain damage is inferred with the whole "He had to re-learn how to walk and button his clothes"

  • ravages of socialism
  • Tldr kinda

    He got addicted to benzos and had himself put in a coma in russia to cold turkey it (against advice to ween off it from doctors in north america). Shit got fucky and he got brain damage from it.

    Couple levels of lols there since he did papers on drug addiction in the past and his schtick is not looking for easy answers... but thats the one he took.

  • After gutting affirmative action, Republicans target minority scholarships
  • The Rs are all about merit. They believe in pulling yourself up by your bootstraps. Like the old saying goes, "Arbeit macht frei"

  • Twitter limits the number of tweets users can read amid extended outage
  • As I understand it, it's likely because he didn't pay his server bills to Google. and wasn't able to migrate enough stuff off in time. Maybe he thought that like the dudes he's renting buildings from, he could just not pay and they'd wait. The difference of course being that, Google can repurpose those servers within a few days. Those buildings might remain empty for months.

  • Fediverse won't replace Reddit as long as Lemmy is the main platform being promoted
  • reddit used to not have comments or even subreddits (Among the first ones were r/programming and r/NSFW, fwiw).

  • apnews.com The Supreme Court rules for a designer who doesn't want to make wedding websites for gay couples

    The Supreme Court’s conservative majority has ruled a Christian graphic artist who wants to design wedding websites can refuse to work with same-sex couples. The decision is a defeat for gay rights.
