Are we still pretending this wasn't staged? I didn't get the latest memo.
If Gmail goes belly up, you won't have a problem. Every service will have a problem. You can just ride along with all the other customers.
If you can't trust the Fat Thigh Business, what can we trust?

Don't have an opinion. Have a code of ethics and empathy. That'll dictate your opinions when they are needed
I've tried nothing and it hasn't worked. I'm all out of ideas.
Don't know why you're getting downvoted. While we all hate the outcome, we can't argue they were effective in getting what they wanted.
Counterpoint: call them anyway. Gum up the works. Change the mind of their interns. Send enough letters that it becomes a waste disposal problem.
Be annoying and difficult and make them work for every inch.
But also be nice. The interns are people too.
Unfortunately not sarcasm. When grocery stores are colluding to raise prices, what can you do?
"it's not my lesson to learn" has been my consoling mantra.
Yes. It's not a problem for her.
But your question makes me think you don't.. FPTP benefits the two major parties. It's completely illogical to think they would not like it.
Or did you mean that she should've lied about her real opinion on order to get more votes?
Imagine not understanding first past the post elections and harm reduction.
The people of Palestine asked us to vote against Trump. But they're not worth listening to. They're not even real.
It took me 2 years to build up the inertia to actually call a doctor.
What are these wires?
I bought a house a few months ago and I'm still trying to figure out all the wiring. I found these coming out of a cabinet in the kitchen.
I think (?) the black one is a cut-off coax cable. There's a LOT of coax in this house, so that seems straightforward (but I would still love if someone can confirm!)
I'm not sure about the other ones. They don't look electric, as I'd expect electric to be black + white + copper, like the rest of the house.
There is supposedly a speaker system in the house (I see speakers) but I haven't figured it out yet. Could that be power for the speakers? I'm not familiar with speaker wire setup. If it's speakers, why would there be so many wires?
Label maker for home use
I'm looking for an inexpensive label maker that can print small labels. I need to label various things around my house for my sanity (outlet/breaker mapping, coax endpoint mapping, etc).
I was going to buy a NIIMBOT D110, but then I saw in their FAQ that they put an IC (chip) into their labels and the printer won't print if it can't sense it. I really don't want to support a company that DRMs their consumables, if I can help it.
Can anyone recommend a good, small, inexpensive label maker? Preferably one that doesn't have sketchy DRM embedded.
Un-wired Robotic lawn mower
I've got about 1/4 acre with some odd shapes and walkways. I'm looking to invest in a robotic mower, but the boundary wire ones don't seem to work with my layout. It doesn't need to have clean mow lines or anything, I just want my grass to be shorter.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a non-wired robot mower? Preferably one that integrates with HA, but that's not required.
If you do, what are the pros/cons of the unit?
Are avid 2A supporters angry because of the lead from bullets?
I was reading about how the EU is thinking of reducing the lead used in ammunition because it's polluting the environment. I wonder if regular lead exposure at the firing range is addling people's brains.
that'll fix it

exercise for us?
Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can't keep at it.
Has anyone found an ADHD friendly way to exercise?
Meme or reality?
I know it was a thing on reddit, but how does everyone feel about peeing on your compost? Apparently it really helps, but I've never brought myself to do it.
lemmy and jerboa source
Has anyone created their own instance and modified it? How about the same for the Android client? There are some features I'm desperately missing and I'm not against DIY.
