Nah, I see cop as an option. More likely than astronaut, actually.
But most of all, I see him becoming a “professional YouTuber” of the “rant from the cab of a pickup truck wearing a baseball cap and wearing oakleys” genre, before going out and attempting to kidnap a politician at gunpoint. It’s one of those nominative determinism things, for sure.
I knew someone who did that to me in high school. I hated him, for many reasons, mind, but that was one. I hated him enough to be almost glad his wife died. Not that I am, and nothing against her, just… fuck him.
I’ve been called Bert by one guy, and sometimes I wonder if I should have run with that. Another guy would call me Rootbeer. I was totally fine with that, as you can see.
It’s probably not even difficult in Poland either
When I was working at a car dealership twenty years ago, I knew a salesman with that name. Before he sold cars, he was a relatively wealthy lawyer who got busted and disbarred for embezzlement or something to that effect, I never knew or cared enough about the details.
Not as bad, but still not great, my graduate advisor’s name was John Johnson. It still is but I’ve been done with all that for eight years.
Beef.
Because that’s a girl’s name, idiots.
You first, I’ve been driving them for over twenty years. My daughter probably won’t, but that’s more because she’d rather not drive at all
Nah, a friend of mine told me once, many many years ago, how she was with her boyfriend and all ready to go and he just wasn’t having it, being fully buried in Diablo II. She was a gamer herself too so it’s not like she was always rolling her eyes at him and saying “ugh you guys and your games”. He really was just that much a dork.
That isn’t to say that this isn’t a really dumb meme
“I like to call him Cheeto Mussolini”
Yeah, no shit, so does like 25 million others. I don’t care, it does nothing to help anyone.
Man, even if there were no kids there, that’s still not the place to do it. I’d have been there to see Beetlejuice, not to see the “beetle” get juiced.
Speaking as a casual, non-musical person, I gotta stick to Pulse but, ironically, it goes beyond Gilmour’s solo: I think Rick Wright’s keyboard work added a richness to it that no one was able to match afterwards.
I’ve been stuck on listening to various live versions of Comfortably Numb (e.g., Pulse, Live in Gdańsk, etc) just to find out which has the best solo because it’s lived rent free in my head for a quarter of a century
I used to go through so many pairs of headphones because the wires would inevitably get caught on things and pull; at the gym, it was particularly bothersome. I have a pair of Audio Technicas with a wire that can be removed (and, incidentally, a Bluetooth option but the lag is awful) but that’s more for stationary use. Otherwise, wireless has been a miracle for me.
I thought Ordinary Sausage would be the one to unchain the Old Ones with his culinary atrocities but a dark horse has emerged
Exactly, I’m getting sick to death of the overuse of the terms fascism and nazism because they’re being used to describe everyone with a totalitarian bent. Yes, the GOP have fascistic tendencies, so it’s apt, but the real operative word to use in pretty much all of these cases is authoritarianism. And whether they’re [actual] fascists or communists, authoritarians are reprehensible. The Nazis were irredeemable but—and I say this as a socialist—so were the Soviets.
I think hiccups are going to be inevitable at times no matter what you’re using, but I don’t expect total disaster to befall you either, no matter what you’re using. I will admit that I was miffed as hell when that TPM bullshit came up when I was installing Win11 last night but a quick download of Rufus and a bootable USB installation cleared that up right quick.
I just installed Windows on my daughter’s new [to her] computer last night and this did not happen. Don’t get me wrong, I loathe Windows, but c’mon.
I deleted my Reddit account and have not gone back. That said, I’m not particularly fond of Lemmy either. I’ve found… maybe? two communities here of interest that may have migrated from Reddit and they aren’t even active; and even as a socialist, the politics are tiresome and pervasive.
Aside from fascists getting the smacking around that they deserve, the one thing that’s nice is that there are far fewer cringey “yay lemmy is the best isn’t it guys” circlejerk posts now than there were back then. I don’t spend nearly as much time on here as I did on Reddit, so that’s a plus.
