Americans started drinking more during the pandemic, and a new study shows that lasted for years
  • I finally managed to cut back and this latest catastrophe has me eyeing the bottle again.

  • Luck of the dice
  • Nice pic! I’ve always played 10000 with 6 dice.

  • Democrats consider the unthinkable: It’s time for Biden to go
  • Biden would have been better off skipping all the events and say he can't validate Trump's candidacy with a debate. He's a felon and being tried for crimes unbecoming a president. But now it's all blown up in his face.

    I really don't think the debate changed any minds, but it did energize one side and depress the other. I doubt that energy can be sustained, attention span is very fleeting.

  • Undetectable
  • Boy that's pretty brazen. Quite a pair of... Oh yes, quite the pair indeed!

  • Two Russian tanks are defeated by FPV drones of the "Alastor" unit of the 25th Airborne Brigade.
  • Really impressive flying. I feel like I'd overshoot because of over-correction but these pros got it nailed down.

  • TFW you're a Reddit Mod or Admin
  • Mod on lemmy, mod on reddit...

  • What is something the world would be better without?
  • Yellowjackets - I hate mosquitoes but they just trying to live. Yellowjackets are assholes.

    Minnesota Democratic ‘uncommitted’ vote nears 20% in latest Biden rebuke
  • “…crisis he can look better at dealing with.” I swear I didn’t have a stroke just now.

    Minnesota Democratic ‘uncommitted’ vote nears 20% in latest Biden rebuke
  • Pretty sure Netanyahu wants Trump re-elected so he’s going to make Biden’s life as difficult as possible. I think Biden loses favor no matter what he does when it comes to Gaza, unless there’s another crisis he can better at good dealing with.

  • Meta platforms are down
  • Stay down Meta, stay down.

  • Gary Brolsma - Numa Numa (2023)
  • The comments show appreciation from another “legend”, which makes this so much sweeter.

  • I made Margherita pizza!
  • Yum!!

  • Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says 2024 is going to be a 'very good' year for the US economy
  • What’s the worst that can happen? She’s wrong and she’s looking for a new job January 20th. May as well go out bold.

  • Would changing useragent to chrome cause me problems?
  • I'm studying for my Network+ (should have had it a long time ago), and watching a #youtube live stream with a study group. Very laggy and buffering events, even when turning my resolution down to 360p.

    I suspected I was being throttled because I was using #Firefox and uBlock.

    I opened up #Chrome (no #adblock is added), and watched the same stream. No glitches at all.

    Not surprised but quite annoying of course.

    I'm going to try a useragent addon and see if it helps.

  • Thank god I don't sing publicly anymore
  • Yellow Ledbetter is a fun example. Boy I was shocked when I finally found the lyrics.

  • Russian election candidate calls Ukraine war a ‘big mistake’ by Putin
  • I’m guessing he will live until about 6 weeks after losing the election, then have an accident with a 5 story window. Given how long Prigozhin lasted. .

  • How would you feel if Beehaw left the Fediverse?
  • I find that one of the drawbacks to this federated landscape is knowing when to make a new account and where. There. Are. So. Many. Options.

    If Lemmy and AP are so limiting why not be part of its development and growth? Development doesn’t seem to happen fast on these platforms, and for good reason. “Move fast and break stuff” is a terrible mantra in my opinion, and I’m glad for things moving more slowly.

    In either case I have enjoyed the discussions over there and it would be a shame to see it defederate. Best of luck to you and the team either way.

    I started out with technology in the early 90's and never stopped. Now starting to get back to my roots.

    In the meantime I have owned an IT business, served in the military, wrote a book and a bunch of other stuff.

    I try to keep people up on things on my website.
