The rich get richer / The poor get poorer / When our time comes / No guilt for the horror
or maybe
The planet is burning / We die of starvation / Abolish the wealthy / And claim our salvation
or maybe
One, two, buckle my shoe / Three, four, overthrow the 1% and bring about a socialist utopia, etc
That’s because Threads’ entire userbase is baked into an app that almost everyone already has. It says absolutely nothing about the quality or featureset of the app, much less scalability and actual use.
I love the episode Little Green Men specifically because it puts Quark in the deeply uncomfortable position of having to grapple with the similarities between humans and ferengi, while also grappling with his own proclivities
it’s so weird, the lemmy.world instances aren’t showing up for me in my searches. Maybe it’s a server thing
Thanks - how do I actually access that? When I copy that into the community search, nothing comes up except for your comment, and it’s not showing up in google
I probably should have planned for this weeks ago. Things are gonna get sticky
I swear If i’m about to be sucked into some looking-glass or magical shoe I’m gonna be pissed
Holy shit. This might be the winner
It never even occurred to me to put a sign up advertising the bounty of the tree. This might be simplest. But on the off chance no one takes me up on that, I’ll still have almost 300 plums. I’ll check out that webzone, thanks
Having never made a jam or a jelly of any kind, I’m hesitant to try this, but it might be a good option. Do you have a favorite plum jam recipe?
Still doesn’t work for me, just tried again a couple minutes ago
I was using Jerboa until I got booted due to the server upgrade, and now I can’t log back in. A couple folks here have offered steps to help get back on it but it doesn’t seem to be working for me.
I hear good things about Liftoff tho
I’ll do “so far” instead of “all time” because all time has not yet elapsed, but I’ll shut up and list the current roster:
Honorable mentions go to Casino Royale, Ashes and Diamonds, The Empire Strikes Back, Paprika, and Vanilla Sky.
Any time you make any amount of money, put 5% of it into a savings account. If you don’t have a savings account, make one. If you can’t make one, put the money somewhere safe in your house.
5% doesn’t sound like a lot, and for broke/poor people it can often mean the difference between eating that day or not, but if you’re able to do it, really seriously do it. I recently calculated where I’d be right now if I had done that, and I would have saved over $20,000 in the last 15 years if I had listened to my own stupid advice.
Also, wear moisturizing sunscreen every single day.
Growing up homeschooled in a cult in the American South, escaping, and then moving to Brooklyn. Kind of a roundhouse-kick to the id, ego, and outlook on literally everything
Look, you’re absolutely right about pretty much everything you said here. My issue is not exactly with the concept of federation per se, but with the potentially cavalier selection from a top-down level.
The Beehaw situation is really what I mean. At least for the next few months, it seems to me that there will likely be a lot of confusion and frustration over how this all works from new users, and even longtime users will be left wondering whether they need to just keep making new accounts in order to interact with the communities they have history in. C/technology on Beehaw is the de-facto tech community, and it’s now inaccessible to a huge number of users, and for somewhat specious reasons.
I understand the utility of federation and de-federation, but I don’t think it’s being handled well right now.
Not knowing it was plant-based, I got a monstrous jumbo something-or-other burger from Monty’s Good Burger in LA.
Honestly I almost freaked out at how good it was, and even went back to the place just to tell them it was the best burger I ever had.
It’s the one thing pulling me west
