This makes me far more angry than this image would have you believe.

Sure, you and I know that. Most people don’t.
I wasn’t talking about what’s necessary, but how it’s marketed. Most people don’t even know enough to have accounts on Lemmy.
It sounds stupid (and it kinda is) but modern smart beds track all your vitals and give you a readout of your brainwaves with suggestions on how to improve your sleep.
I can totally understand how people desperate for sleep would buy one.
It’s mostly marketing fluff plus that thing where more data != more knowledge, but I do get it. Sleep deprivation is the worst.
It’s all fun and games until your $1200 bed folds you into a pretzel in the night.
looks inside website
It’s a Wordpress wrapper over an autogenerated CSS wrapper on their 2002 website written in HTML-1 and Perl. On Angelfire.
Is that because it’s starting to turn by then, or some other change? I know some chemicals change kinda quickly. Do some acids start turning into sugars, or do the fish wind up frozen or being marinated or injected something?
Thank you for answering!
Oh! That does make sense now you say it.
Is this what I think it is? Or is it an eyepatch?
I’m kind of useless in the morning. Can we pencil it in for, like, 3?
I’ve been looking for antifa for years. I bought the t-shirts and the pins, have gone to the rallies, signed the petitions, etc, but I can’t find the antifa.
Some antifa, but nowhere enough antifa.
We could really use some organised antifa right now. It’s not there yet, though.
I disagree, because I think all of these things address the wrong problem.
Individuals should be able to gain from their own inventions, and others shouldn’t be able to force them into poverty by stealing their IP. Corporations especially should not be incentivised to do that.
Then again, unfettered capitalism is geared towards incentivising corporations to do that.
The answer isn’t to weaken people’s already vanishing IP, but to change what’s incentivised. Also to stop treating corporations as people. They aren’t.
I guess this is good, though it’s annoying that it’s unique enough to make a headline. This should be completely uncontroversial.
No, children are learning this from their parents, but society as a whole is moving on from this, and some insular communities are getting butthurt over it. This is part of what’s fuelling their xenophobia, actually.
No. I was legitimately shocked the first time I heard these things, as I switched schools.
I stayed shocked until today, though I’ve had to keep hearing it in my small town. For a while in the early 2000s, it got a bit better, but starting in 2016 it ramped up to 1980s levels again.
As a designer doing advertising work, a local bakery rebranded themselves and asked me in 2017 to redo their logo to Kathy’s Korner baKery, for instance. Of course I wouldn’t, but nobody would have asked me to do that before.
Back in the 80s/early 90s I would have seen shit like that, but not in the early to mid 2000s.
From my (very white girl) perspective, it seems some people have hit middle age and desperately want to return to their teens when that abhorrent behaviour was okay. Their personality has become wrapped up in it, and they think being asked to care about others is a judgement on their soul (it is, and they’re awful people), so they’re lashing out.
They don’t understand they can learn and grow, and instead feel everyone has turned against them, so they’re doubling down. It’s actually sad.
Ha, yeah, definitely not right wing. Pretty much the opposite.
He’s an evolutionary biologist. Here: Forrest Valkai YouTube.
He has many great videos on science and is really good at making science accessible. He’s fun to watch and is also a very kind and empathetic human being.
The GOP has spent decades and billions of dollars making sure most Americans have grown up not knowing how any of this works.
Everything is gonna come tumbling down very soon. Brace, y’all.
ICE is just going for their Glory to Arstotzka achievement.
Yeah, I feel like flared scrubs is a logistics problem. That makes good sense.
I work about 1 metre down from where I sleep (one of those loft/sleeper/desk combos where trousers only even matter during certain teleconferences, or if someone insists on watching. Nearly all my trousers are flared, because if I trip, people don’t tend to die (I’ve had no reports of that, anyway), and I also never needed scrubs. I barely need trousers on occasion.
Sorry for the demise of your fashion, but you certainly look cooler than I ever do, so there’s that.
