This helps explain the low pay high workload mantra.
Damn this is gonna be a hard 4 years checking for onion.
“Elon won’t go home. I can’t get rid of him,” Trump said Wednesday. “Until I don’t like him.”
The world’s richest man has reportedly spent “nearly every single day” of the last week at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate ...
“Everyone laughed,” said O’Donnell. “They laughed that uncomfortable laugh. But they laugh when Donald Trump makes a joke about someone on his team, a joke that everyone knows is true, a joke that paints that person as pathetic, as Donald Trump’s personal sense of superiority demands that he do.”
Yeah don't go to mini Russia.
I listened to many interviews with people convinced that Trump wouldn't do the things he said he would do. They definitely won't acknowledge the things he said he won't do.
Then you make a rule "no low effort political questions".
Seriously? Political questions, political related questions, and international political related questions.
The one you listed is for essentially for posting articles.
Seriously? You're this pedantic on the word discussion? Ok I will amend my first comment to:
We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban discussionquestions and the resulting discussion in the comments?
Jeez all over again.
It's not a small topic, it's a small community to set up all these tiny communities.
Community is what we called subs on the other site.
What's wrong is fracturing. Lemmy is not so massive that it can sustain niche communities for every little topic.
... And now you can't ask anything about politics. There's was doubtless going to be political questions to ask, and politic adjacent (where do I move) that will all be removed.
And you can't even ask about effects on the world either! Gaza, Ukraine, NATO, trade, tariffs, etc. Are those going to be removed? All valid questions, but sounds political to me.
Like way to shut down shit tons of conversation.
We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban discussion? Jeezus.
Tyl.
They're probably just happy they're not being bombed. (Anything fall on them?)
And they're like, don't vote so hard.
Kimball musk:
“In fact, when they did fund us, they realized that we were illegal immigrants,” Kimball says in the video.
“Well, I mean…” Elon says.
“Yes, we were,” Kimbal replies.
“I’d say it was a gray area,” Elon insists as the crowd laughs.
“We were illegal immigrants…” Kimbal says, continuing his story about
Do spiders wander far from their net? Not as far as bees obviously, I'm just curious.
Federal government intervenes, orders end to CN and CP railway shutdown
>This intervention, a direction to the Canada Industrial Labour Relations Board (CILRB), requires the two railway companies and the union to enter into binding arbitration and requires workers to go back to work and restart the railway operations.
So how will VP pick be done?
Sounds like it's a quick primary? So will VPs be picked before the nomination is finalized? Can multiple candidates pick the same VP? If after the nomination, it has to be pretty fast. Pick the second place finisher?
TIL the term "Mad as a Hatter" likely came from hat makers using mercury and the resulting mercury poisoning.
>Mercury poisoning of hat-makers – In 18th and 19th century England, mercury was used in the production of felt, which was commonly used in the hat-making trade at the time. Long-term use of mercury products often resulted in mercury poisoning-induced erethism among hat-makers.[1][2] In the late 19th-century United States, a notable example occurred in Danbury, Connecticut, where hat making was a major industry. Instances of erethism were so widespread among hat-makers, the condition became known locally as the "Danbury Shakes." It was characterized by slurred speech, tremors, stumbling, and in extreme cases hallucinations.

We saw his father, his mother, his grandfather, his brother, his other brother, and his daughter. Not too shabby for an Android.

Is there a way to search your Lemmy comments?
Or to load a whole bunch at once so you can Ctrl+F? I used to use RES on the other site to do that.
Have a low flush toilet that doesn't flush much? Keep a container nearby, fill it up with water, and pour it in the bowl as you flush.
I use an old mixed nuts container.
TIL China now has a 3 child policy.
Maximum, that is.
1 child policy from 1979 to 2015.
2 child policy from 2015 to 2021.
3 child policy since 2021.
>The announcement came after the release of the results of the Seventh National Population Census, which showed that the number of births in mainland China in 2020 was only 12 million, the lowest number of births since 1960, and the further aging of the population, against which the policy was born.[5] This was the slowest population growth rate China experienced.[6]
>Although the CCP government had high expectations for the new policy,[16] in a 2021 online poll conducted by the state media Xinhua on its Weibo account, using the hashtag #AreYouReady for the new three-child policy, about 29,000 out of 31,000 respondents stated they would "never consider it."[15]
