This is painfully true. I want to say something pithy about it, but my brain is filled with cotton wool and sludge.
notabot@piefed.socialto politics @lemmy.world•US hurricane satellite data to be abruptly cut offEnglish0·2 days agoI presume trump thinks he can do their job with with a marker and some poster board.
notabot@piefed.socialto News@lemmy.world•‘Explosive increase’ of ticks that cause meat allergy in US due to climate crisisEnglish87·2 days ago“They will hunt you, they are like a cross between a lentil and a velociraptor,”
Well, that’s a horrifying image.
notabot@piefed.socialto Android@lemmy.world•The network can see your imei and triangulate your location as long as your radio is onEnglish3·3 days agoYes, the IMEI uniquly identifies the phone itself, so if the GSM radio is on, the network can monitor it’s approximate location.
There’s a couple of caveats: IMEI cloning is possible, but unlikely, and he accuracy of the triangulation will depend on a lot of factors including how far apart the towers are and what sort of obstructions there are between you and the towers. My understanding is that it is done by comparing your signal strength at each of the towers as a proxy for distance. If there’s a large obstruction that reduces your signal to a tower it could throw those measurements off. They’ll know you’re in the area, but not exactly where.
notabot@piefed.socialtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•These past few years have been very illuminatingEnglish0·3 days agoYou didn’t “punish” them in the slightest, they’re not the ones who will suffer, you punished everyone else instead by deliberately acting to boost the republicans.
To be clear, this is not a good, or even acceptable situation, but it is the reality. Each voter had the choice to accept that reality and work within it to seek out the least bad result or vote as if their fantasy was true, and aid the republucans.
The time for trying to change the Democrat positions is every other day, not on the day of a massively consequential election.
notabot@piefed.socialtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•These past few years have been very illuminatingEnglish0·4 days agoThe same as before, that you made your choice to hand the White House to trump rather than a Democrat you didn’t agree with. It’s the same story down the ticket too. The Democrats may have run a lousy campaign, with poor candidates, but we all knew what the alternative was, and some ostensably left wing voters chose not to oppose that.
notabot@piefed.socialtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•THE BARDS WILL SING OF ZOHRAN THE DESTROYER FOR GENERATIONS TO COMEEnglish0·4 days agoHe needs this on his office door. It’d really set the tone for meetings.
Quite right. It’s human fried rice with shrimp.
notabot@piefed.socialto PC Master Race@lemmy.world•Motherboard got a bit scratched, any chance of it still working?English0·5 days agoIt looks like you’re going to have to reconnect a couple of traces, but if you’ve got some magnet wire and a fine tipped iron you should be good to go. You probably don’t need that bit on the left, it doesn’t look important.
notabot@piefed.socialto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Miss Rachel keeps her eye on the ballEnglish0·7 days agoOnce you realise that most people don’t read most of the information you give them, it sort of becomes a secret power. You can hide all sorts of things in a five paragraph email, let alone a full report.
I started offering cash prizes in the middle of reports, to be claimed simply by telling me you’d read that bit. Not a single taker. I stopped writing the reports after that, and no one noticed.
notabot@piefed.socialto Privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com•US embassy wants 'every social media username of past five years' for new visasEnglish2·8 days agoHe was forgetting the most important step: you have to nail their feet to the floor before you light them up.
The thing is, humans are astonishingly good at conserving energy when running. We can literally run prey to death by just keeping on going when most animals run out of energy.
Yeah, you’re exhausted and feel like you’re having a heart attack. It is deeply unfun.
I like it. We could combine it with @sbv@sh.itjust.work 's blood and skulls suggestion for extra pizzaz.
I love it, it subverts the trope perfectly. Who do we have to talk to to make it happen?
Do we still get the sparkly, spinny transformation sequences, or is it more of a flash, and instead of the worryingly young protagonist, Mo’Gar Skullcrush stands in front of the wizard Balath, who’s been causing problems, reaches forward and squashes him flat with one hand.
Either way, I’d watch it.
Take your eye roll and hearty groan and get out!
Thanks for a good chuckle this morning.
I’m browsing all by top/6 hour. Bad news: they’re multiplying. I counted at least three or four users on the first page.
Piefed seems to have this, and the ability to subscribe to posts as @TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works asks about below.
Migrating is fairly straightforward, it can import your lemmy settings to get you up and running quickly, and the systems interoperate seamlessly, which is fantastic to see.
