I gotta give plasma another try now that we’re on 6.x, I keep hearing good things. I think I’ll probably still be a gnome person but if kde was in a better place than last time I used it that’d be rad. I don’t always love the way gnome is run as a project 😅

Knockoff toys specifically is such a fun premise for a wiki

Is it a known thing that they were dishonest about speaking to a lawyer with that situation?

I’ve been meaning to change instances and find a new home, if it’s known that they lied or mislead their users thats something I’d love to know more about

I think someone told me about those devices, can’t remember what it’s called- how do you like it? Love the yellow color, looks super pretty

I mean, I’m not a big fan of the carsal justice system, I don’t think sending this 80 year old woman to die in prison will somehow bring back the dead, but not taking away her license is kinda unreal

A no contest rather than guilty pleas and moving assets feel like they may be things she was advised to do by her lawyer but do feel additionally gross.

The culmination of it all definitely does not feel like justice. Though people in the comments here calling for her to die in prison probably ought to do some self reflection on how much they’ve bought into the notion that harming those who have done wrong somehow makes society or victims better off. Our criminal justice system sucks ass, institutional retribution has never been “justice” either.

What a fucking depressing story and miscarriage of justice.

Thats bit of history is super cool, thanks for sharing! I will remember that

While it is good to have empathy and understanding for less technical folks, OP may be in a better position to know what is realistic for their family and level of support they can provide

I know this is kinda offtopic, but does anyone have some really accessible reccomendations for learning more about anarchist ideology?

I’m not really at a reading theory kinda point yet but I’d love to learn a little more

While that’s true I don’t think Bernie is trying to say every district, he’s disagreeing with the broader notion from entrenched Democrats that these are outliers that can’t be replicated and that the Democratic party needs to stay moderate (neoliberal) to win. The article lists a couple more races where we could see this pattern of more progressive candidates winning continue

Other progressive victories victories could be on the horizon in Maine, where Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner has had a double-digit lead over Gov. Janet Mills in polls ahead of the June primary and raised three times as much as Mills and Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) combined in small donations in the final quarter of 2025; and North Carolina, where Durham County Commissioner Nida Allam is challenging Rep. Valerie Foushee for a second time after losing a close race in 2022.

(Nida Allam is up for vote where I am I believe. While Foushee hasn’t been a bad representative I’m excited to do more research on Allam and think I may be voting for her :)

Oh eons ago I was raised nondenominationally christian. My missing those things is less a reflection of having had them in the past, and more a reflection of having much less access to community in the present. I have a circadian rhythm disorder that limits my ability to get together with other people cause everyone’s asleep for the bulk of time I’m awake, so connection to other people is precious to me

I’m not, but I kind of miss the community connection and discussion of life wisdom that religion serves.

I’ve thought about trying to go to a universalist Unitarian service sometime, since I’ve heard they dont really care if you are a more secular person, they’re not a Christian church, and welcome folks of all sorts of world views

I mean linux distros are in effect kind of like a bunch of different OSes all based on the linux kernel.

It definitely would have been more helpful for them to describe it as a distro though

Interesting. It does look like homicide solve rates are the highest in general. Thanks for the link!

Are the solve rates for homicide particularly good?

I am both horrorfied and delighted by this, thank you

Sick!

While I feel theres a slight difference between a lit cigarette while operating a gas pump, and the possible spark from breaking the diaphragm in a low voltage speaker behind grates in the pump body- you know what fair enough. Usually when I see or participate in folks talking about electricity dangers online its folks who have no clue what theyre talking about.

A couple of months ago I was in an argument with folks on lemmy who thought if you put a nine volt battery against your nipple it’d electrocute you. At one point I went and grabbed a nine volt to take a picture of literally pressed against my skin just to prove my point 😅. A lot of folks seem to mythologize electricity and its dangers, sometimes it even seems to come from folks claiming to have electrical work backgrounds or engineering degrees

Regardless, hope you have a good day, take care :)

Interesting little piece of history, thanks for sharing

Thanks for posting this :)

I can’t get to the store very often for medical reasons so I’d been looking for ways to eat more fresh veg that dont go bad immediately. I’ll have to check out some of the recipes mentioned :)

I do like their idea of salads that dont just use delicate leafy stuff. Does feel like an odd subject to write a whole article about though, but no reason not to of you’re an article writer I suppose lol

I have limited ability to get to the store regularly so more salads with ingredients that dont go bad immediately would be really nice, I’ll have to check out some of the recipes they mention
