This could probably be used to check for authentic game cartridges. I’m not going to be licking used games to find out if they’re real, though.

We have a big maple in our yard and more through the neighborhood. The sound of wind running through their leaves is very calming.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what is turning (and has been turning) the US into a shithole country.

Not to defent the corporate dystopia, but usually to qualify for whatever kind of insurance these companies have, they are required by the insurance company to drug test. At least, that’s how it is at the company I work for. If they don’t drug test, the company is held liable for anything the employee does, and insurance won’t cover it.

I remember when this happened. I think it’s wild that she is still being detained for it.

That scene in Idiocracy where the smart couple fail to reproduce comes to mind.

Being illiterate has no correlation with wanting other people to do all the work for me. We’re just lazy. Please do some homework before jumping to conclusions.

I have no idea, but I just assume at this point that even mentioning Lemmy on that site would result in either a ban or a shadowban from Spez’s lackeys.

Dead communities or Bot communities. Pick one.

There’s a few smaller communities on reddit that I like that don’t have a presence here, which is unfortunate. I feel ya.

Reddit is only good for massively reposted memes at this point. Any real communities with any semblance of civility are better on Lemmy, in my opinion, thanks to Reddit’s policy of shooting themselves in the foot.

Another reason why I’m glad I made the switch to Lemmy.

Like, literal skeletons? Or metephorical ones? Either way, I’m pretty sure we’ll find both

Honestly, I went to a small sling backpack to get everything out of my pockets. It gets uncomfortable, but I didn’t realize it because I was putting everything in my pockets for so long. Sitting with one side higher because of my wallet in my back pocket, and a big bulky phone shoved against my thigh, etc. Now I have a belt case for my phone and everything else in my bag, and jeans have never been more comfortable.

Mushrooms walking in one’s house at night can bring new meaning to the phrase “tripping on shrooms.”"

Governments should not be measured in “value” of any financial aspect, but rather the quality of living of the citizens they govern. Electing a leader of questionable human rights morals would be a disaster.

I guess I do!

Goof Troop A Goofy Movie would be one of my picks. 1995, I think.

I would assume so. I would also think a lot of people just aren’t comfortable consuming something that they can’t see.

I very specifically remember the controversy 15-20 years ago when it was found that many of these pouches had mold in them, and you couldn’t see it because of the pouch or even taste it. I’m sure the quality control since then has improved, but any time I see a pouch of juice, I think about that mold incident.

If you aren’t ready to fully commit to installing it on a hard drive, you could probably make a live USB stick of Linux. There are installers built to run on windows that will install Linux onto a USB drive, which you can boot from after turning off your PC. That way, you don’t need to worry about wiping or resetting an old computer just to see if you like it.
