Lemmy’s isn’t jokes as much as something the community is going to circlejerk and rage over for the millionth and a half time.

I don’t even go to the comments on some things anymore because I just know it’s going to be someone raging over something and everyone else joining in.

I used to play a game with myself and try to guess the top comments on a Reddit thread. I was usually accurate…

Post about a box? Top comment is going to be about the cumbox.

Post about broken bones? Top comment is about sexual activities with mother.

Post about a toilet? Top comment is about a poop knife.

That was my immediate thought. Feels like someone used the “give me that Rick and Morty and Star Trek cartoon style” prompt.

I and many others agree. But I got like 75 games for free off there. Only played like 3 of them lol but I think of it as my backup if anything happens with steam.

I was suspicious when they said it used to be called nix 🤨

Yeah wasn’t sure how truthful that is, just what I had heard being touted.

But now that I think about it, some GoPros are waterproof and some of them have removable batteries too. So yeah, lazy excuse on their part. Probably being cheap or disingenuous.

We recently noticed this with Samsung’s line where my mom went from one of the flagships to the lower end. She was initially hesitant but has actually been much happier.

She got a removable battery, micro SD card slot, better battery life, among other features she came to love that weren’t on the flagship. It’s crazy they don’t, but my best guess is that all these features add doors/slots that “ruin” the aesthetic of the look of the phone? I’m not sure why else they choose to do this besides that. Though I have heard the removable battery loss is due to waterproofing, and it’s not possible to have that with a waterproof design.

I agree with the other person as an EV owner, myself. I charge at home, yeah, but road trips are a bitch to do in an EV, as it is, for one example.

Granted, apps like PlugShare and my EV’s navigation system help plan routes, but it’s still got a lot of range anxiety that you might end up with a dead battery somewhere.

Too often do I go to a station on the map and the cables are cut by some vandal or the machine simply isn’t working for one reason or another or it’s being hogged by someone who is using it as their personal campground/personal free charger and they live a block away or it’s just being a pain for no reason, like a lot of Shell chargers at Amazon stores, Kohls, etc. Tesla superchargers are the only real working solution here that are always dependable for me but they’re not everywhere and the recent vandalism against them made it worse in some places for anyone to reliably charge.

It’s not on the same level as hydrogen station availability is, for sure, and the convenience of charging at home helps, but doesn’t do much when out and about far from home.

I went to pick up some family up at our nearby airport and it was insane how many places gave me issues trying to find a charger to top off my range. This place was hogged, that place was broken, that place didn’t exist, that one was only for the dealership…finally had to just bite the bullet and waste 10 miles to get to a Tesla supercharger that had 11 spots available and in 8 minutes of charging, I was back on the road. Took me less time charging than I did driving everywhere to find a charger.

Range is still really crappy on new vehicles barely touching 300 miles in some cases, which decreases quickly in the first year by at least 20-50 miles and more as time goes on. We’re seeing more touching 400, but I’m skeptical of their estimates. I did see one with 1,000 out of China, but really wondering how they’re managing to pull that off and how truthful it is in real world use.

Again, definitely not on the same level of hydrogen, but for those used to gasoline and the convenience of finding a gas station in the middle of the Mojave desert or the convenience of carrying a Jerry can, EVs are still somewhat near this level. I’m honestly amazed since electricity is literally everywhere that the system is the way it is. I feel frustrated knowing electricity is flowing through those wires above and yet I could still end up stranded somewhere because of one reason or another.

I got into an argument with my local post office for doing that. The mailman was notorious for marking packages as delivered when he hadn’t even left the damn parking lot. Every morning at 8 AM I would get a delivered notification to my email.

The USPS employee I was talking to said “oh that’s normal, we all do that.” Huh? You mark a package as delivered and you haven’t even left the parking lot?! How does that make any sense? Why even provide a status update to me at all if you do that??

I have one of these and it also has a filter to keep the water clean. I am always topping it off every morning to ensure he has enough in case I spend the night somewhere or don’t come back until late.

What a legacy to leave lol

That looks just like the gas station I saw a few weeks ago with a deadly shoot out with a cop and a guy stalking a woman and it was in Victorville too. Wtf is going on over there?! https://youtu.be/S4e2KOJmn6U

Yes their ads are atrocious and getting worse by the day!

What kind of videos do you do?

Thank you!

I’ve actually never cooked beef in this way (done steaks before) but never this cut or teriyaki style but it turned out great!

I wanted WaBa Grill the other day and decided I’d rather not go out and spend money on fast food and instead increase my cooking knowledge and actually using my kitchen and the food I buy. In total, I spent between $15-$20 for all the ingredients and I have enough for at least 2 bowls. But this same price is about how much a single bowl like this would have cost me there, so I’ve saved pretty well on this one and I had fun doing it!

It was very delicious, much better than I was expecting, but I think I’ll change up next time by using less teriyaki sauce (it flowed out of that bottle QUICK lol) and using a different cut of beef. But other than that, I enjoyed every bit of this meal. The avocado meshes so well with this in a way I can’t describe and I’m not a fan of sesame seeds, but I did it for the look and actually it wasn’t that bad tasting to me on this. I think I will do that again too.

What happened with Alex? I’m out of the loop on that one. Did it happen here?

Maybe check out emulators if you’re okay with controllers? I just downloaded CoD MW2 for Xbox 360 on my Steam Deck because I can’t play with a keyboard and mouse and the controller scheme just works as it should.

I use Xenia Canary and there is a netplay version too.

I’m a huge fan of cream soda. My favorite being Shasta brand, more than A&W which is a close second.

I was iffy on temper but I think it’s close and would pass in a rap lyric lol
