These people seem to think the meme about the spider picture sent in an email as payment was a how-to and not a joke.
I did comment that enforcement seemed to be part of the problem here, yes. Do the laws need to be more strict? I doubt that will fix any enforcement, since that’s the failure.
Guns are regulated. How much regulation, who gets allowed, what types of guns, and if the regulations are being enforced, those are the real questions. This warrant and shooting is a result of a law that wasn’t enforced well, as they had already broken the law once and yet someone sold/gave them guns again.
That feels like a privacy issue, maybe related to the topic of whether or not they can force you to unlock your phone? I don’t know where the current law is on that.
Except for one thing. Unless that society is also a lot different than ours, it would still require the product these companies produce to survive. So maybe a much stronger slap of the hand, but it wouldn’t eliminate them.
Maybe your argument isn’t against Lemmy, but against online discussion in general. Heating debates that break into less constructive postings have been around since the days of BBSes and Usenet. I don’t disagree with your point that people should try to act like adults when discussing topics, but a (not so) different format doesn’t change how people are, especially when they feel protected by anonymity to react badly.
Are they going to be using that vehicle on a government-supported road?
Just take him out for an all night party to get him drunk, and then accidentally open the door as the sun is rising.
Aquifers aren’t immune to plastic accumulation. You may indeed be fortunate and so far have purer water, but if you haven’t tested for it, don’t assume because it comes from deep underground it can’t be affected.
I mean there’s plastic in the water already no matter which way you do it.
Yes, with different effects. I’m not saying this will really have a measurable influence, but melt into Greenland waters is far worse than in most other places. Just look into papers discussing the AMOC slowdown and its causes.
It was coined as meaning other people, but words evolve to mean things by their usage over time, and I’m sure carrying it over to other living things is applicable.
I don’t think sonder is the word you were asking about, because the awareness that sonder refers to is only a piece of the whole complexity of reality. As an example, take this video by Epic Spaceman to help show the scale of the galaxy. It’s not sonder, but has that same sense of opening your mind beyond your normal comprehension for a bit.
And the new President doesn’t necessarily have to pick a VP, it’s just expected to fill the vacancy.
Well, it would be pretty suspicious given he’s the world’s healthiest man. /s
You answered all the questions I had when I saw this. It does really depend on the context. Another positive thing might be that the amount of ice they are able to transfer to be used as ice cubes in a drink is less fresh water melt that would have gone into the oceans (affecting things like the AMOC), which is one of many concerns about Greenland’s melting ice.
I guarantee since the first printed material people tended to read the headlines and react first. If there had been a way to post an opinion in a printed newspaper instantly there would have been the same results.
The best part is that you don’t dare question what you do get, or you receive the “well, at least it’s something”. Yeah, I guess so, but if the intent is to make the employee feel valued it’s not working very well. I do have to say that a baked potato is still better than some things I’ve seen posted before.
Way too many good movies to have a single best, but that one is one of my favorites certainly. If I recommend it to someone I avoid any spoiling of the twist because it was so great when it happened. It might be obvious before that point for some, it came from left field for me.
And while I heard the sequel wasn’t all that great, I felt that even if a sequel could be good it was totally unneeded. It’d be like trying to make a second Highlander movie, if one could even imagine that.
