  • As someone who grew up in the 80s and 90s - when intifada meant angry people in checkered scarfs with RPGs - I have come to realize that the intifada is not against Jews but against colonialism.

  • I once electroplated some Spanish rice by making it in a cast iron pan and covering it tightly with aluminum foil.

    Because I was in college I ate the parts that weren’t silver. It tasted normal.

  • This is the sort of high-brow memery I’ve come to expect from Lemmy

  • This is true, but I think the big thing is that this lasted as long as it did. Material science is important, and if we want Io scale these up for more general use we need to make sure they can at least survive.

    Thanks to the power of two, a larger diameter blade could capture a lot more energy, and might be put in places with lesser tidal bores.

  • My kid and their friends would go on there to find pedos and report them to mods

  • I’ve worked for a few where I was being exploited. One paid me by letting me keep the laptop they bought me.

    Then some accountant called me and asked if I still had it.

    I said no.

    Luckily as you do this more you learn what to look out for. The one I work for now is pretty great.

  • I love guns. I’d buy a ton of them.

    I just don’t like people and don’t want to be around them that much.

  • Not anymore, it’s been deprecated

  • Just hook the bodies of the folks who fought at Agincourt to generators and we could power both countries

  • They used to be 3.5” floppies and if you put tape over the copy protection hole you could get a ton of free disks

  • Jokes on him: some of the laziest jobs I’ve had were for successful startups.

    Hell, I work for a startup right now and spent the last three hours in my hammock watching YouTube.

    I get paid for results, not time

  • Anyone who buys a WiFi enabled crock pot deserves what’s coming to them

  • It’s rare I’ve seen it this well done

  • It’s been a hot minute since I’ve seen a confused Jackie Chan meme. Well done, OP

  • It’s still real to me dammit

  • Absolutely. “Better to say nothing and be thought a fool than to say something and remove all doubt.”

  • For context: He’s talking about the communication system between airports. Apparently it had been over copper, but now they’re taking bids to make it all fiber.

    But, as usual, he’s an idiot who has no idea what he’s talking about.

    What a stupid timeline
