  • IMO from personal experience I tend to half care.

    I personally wouldn't leave in, "Edit: a word," but if I change the substance of a comment in any meaningful way I like to leave an edit to say what changed.

    Particularly for when someone already replied to my comment or may already be replying to my comment. I would be afraid of accidentally trying to gaslight someone lol.

  • I'm so close to making the switch. I'm just a poor soul though who enjoys games with those annoying anti-cheats. Thinking about trying to do a duel boot just for those specific scenarios.

  • Right?

    When I was younger, I'd try to "buy American" but over the years I've slowly stopped caring for the same reasons you've described.

    Now, I'm purposefully looking for non-american origins. As long as it's sustainable, I'll be buying more Canadian, Mexican, and European products now.

    Any Firefox Extensions that limit screentime by site?

    Title pretty much!

    Just wanting to limit my time for various different websites. Enough doom scrolling ..

  • Always! And I have those super sized insulated grocery bags so I can usually carry everything with both hands once I'm done checking out. So I just return my cart back in at the door and macho walk out of the store. 😤

  • Wasn't there actually someone else before Kira? I vaguely remember there was some person on an undercover mission that Odo got involved with, but once their mission got over with they regained their memory and they were already married or something lol.

    Edit: OH this isn't Kira! I just glanced at the image initially and assumed it was. My b 🫣

  • Very cool that contracts are very important and I must pay back my crippling student loans. We can't just stop money with a magic wand.

    Oh but the government can just stop giving out money to people it already owes. Hope those mothers and babies in need won't starve.

    Wasn't there an article no-so-long-ago that talked about Elon Musk having family ties to Nazis?

    Title pretty much. I vaguely remember a post and in the article Grandpa Musk said he was proud to finally embrace Nazism safely or something.

    I tried searching for it but it's kind of hard to search with the Nazi salute taking up most of the results.

    Just wondered if anybody knew the post/article I was looking for and if they could find it?

    Thanks for taking the time to read this post in advance!

  • Well the US Govt makes you pay taxes as a citizen even if you're on a visa abroad. It shouldn't be surprising that it makes you pay taxes in the afterlife too. You just need to prove you're dead so they can update your home address.

  • The worst are the places that say they have delivery, take you through the whole checkout process on their own site, and then sends you a link to track your order on door dash or something.

  • It's more like "Slapping on the wrist isn't helping." The Alex Jones bankruptcy is the first time I've seen anyone fined significantly to the point of it mattering. Fines are meant to be significant enough that the company would do its best to avoid them. If the fine is palpable, then it's just the cost of doing business.

    What gravel/all-road bikes would you recommend for exercise, amateur racing, and group rides?

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/28022420

    I have a wonderful GT Transeo which I have been using for commuting and joy rides.

    I'm thinking about upgrading since I did a couple of charity rides and even a race this year as well.

    I have been riding road primarily but I'm thinking about gravel or all-road bikes since drivers in my area seem to be getting more... dangerous? If I get gravel then I can either go on bike trails or drive somewhere where there is less car traffic. There's also quite a few gravel events in my area.

    I've been eyeing either the Trek Domane, Canyon endurance, or the Giant Revolt. Any other bikes to look into?

    Budget - Preferably $1k-$2k USD. I'm okay with going up to $3k if it's worth it. I am not looking to be a pro, just something with a little more arrow and competitive than a hybrid bike 😅. Not afraid of buying used, but the market in my area is terribly non-existent. If I look for used bikes I probably would buy throug

    Do fingers ever stop growing? Do they shrink as you get older?

    Title is pretty much all.

    Some context:

    I took an edible and had a thought last night.

    What if I tattooed a ruler on my finger?

    I never would actually do this, but my interest still piqued. Do hands keep growing? Do they stop growing? Do they shrink? How long would a finger ruler be viable until it needs decommissioned?

    Anybody have any essential or recommend Trek Comics by Megan Levens, Dayton Ward, or Kevin Dilmore?

    I'm probably going to PlanetComicon in KC because some of my friends are going, and I noticed a couple of celebrities have been involved in Trek comics!

    I've been meaning to start reading some comics but keep putting it off because the amount of series to choose from is a bit overwhelming for me. I suppose now is a better time to start never!

    Dumb question: Is it safe to use extension ladder on interrior wall?

    Title is pretty much everything!

    I have these high up windows that I'd like to clean and maybe in the future install curtains on. I guestimate the wall being 20ft (6m) tall.

    For other rooms in the house I typically use an A-Frame, but it's impossible to find an A-Frame to reach that high where I am.

    I plan on draping a towel over the top of the ladder to prevent scratches and scuffs on the wall, as well as getting a rubber mat or something if the floor seems slippery. I am just not sure if drywall would support a ladder? Especially near the frame of the windows. Maybe there's something else I'm not considering as well?

    NOBODY WARRNED ME 😭😭😭

    Description of image: Meme image. I can't believe he didn't cry during Titanic! Do men even have feelings? The man is crying at Picard crying in the mud.

    What do you guys do in your free time while listening to audio books?

    Like, I understand listening to them while driving to work, exercising, doing chores, etc!

    But sometimes you're in a moment and you don't want to stop listening, but you're done with your chores or something.

    I currently just sit and twiddle my thumbs but I feel like I could be doing other things. Sorry if this was a dumb question I took an edie 😅

    What are some good games to play while absolutely baked?

    I'm not talking high, I'm not talking vibing, I mean absolutely covered in cookie crumbs baked.

    Sometimes, it's nice to come home from an awful day at work, smoke a toke, and forget about problems for a minute.

    I usually would just continue playing whatever game I'm actively into at the moment. But when you're sitting there covered in cookie crumbs, maybe trying to figure out how to play Boulder Gate 3 might be too tedious for the moment.

    Vampire Survivors is what I typically play, but sometimes it's nice to have more than one option.
