There’s a theory that carbonara used to be a “war time” food.

I mean, they grilled Hasan Piker for hours: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/12/hasan-piker-border-trump-gaza

“Relatively peacefully” for now, but you can tell they’re going to keep pushing things.

Shows you the type of people that are on Lemmy.

“stop defending corporations”

It’s like we hate the corporation too but they’re correct in this instance.

Some people say you can buy the tokens instead of a monthly subscription. They’re not as openly offered as they get more cash from monthly obviously.

Ah yes, any time Trump is offended he calls people “nasty” and horrible people and all that shit. When he offends others, it’s a privilege …

Me too. I bought the first quest before Facebook acquired it. Now that Facebook/Meta own quest and stuff … I’ve been staying away from VR for now.

I’ll definitely be doing my best to get one as soon as it’s available. Everything about it sounds hype.

They can’t afford to pay so many mods! You’re crazy! /s

Now, if you’ll excuse him … he’s buying a new yacht.

Fucking monsters.

I think the play book from IDF apologists is to say: “she’s a liar”, “Israel never does anything wrong”, “the people were punished this is a fringe case”

Not that this is a systemic fucking thing and what they do to anyone who doesn’t agree with them.

I’m not the guy replying and I agree with you “to a degree”. Although I got burned out listening to the “other side” for years. I don’t even really listen to “my side” … or at least I don’t think. The right-wing manosphere loves culture wars and complain about people starting culture wars so much to me it’s tiring to listen.

I do admire your ability to go through it. I think I probably would have kept listening if the “other side” wasn’t in charge of so much and reeking havoc.

I remember someone asking about Jon Stewart and The Daily Show during the Bill Clinton administration if he could keep doing his comedy if times were bad. He said something to the affect of, it works better when times are good. Which always struck me as funny because he flourished even moreso afterwards and was then accused on loving the bad times so much because he profits from it by lazy journalists. Anyways, I ramble a lot >_>.

I take a bus and then walk … half hour or so on the bus and half hour or so of walking. If I drive it’s like 35-45 minutes?

However, I’m always more tired when I arrive there. Also, I’m not a fan of finding parking and stuff around the office.

I agree, this guy was a twat!

I’m j/king. People change all the time, it’s okay to acknowledge that.

I was just hoping a phone like fairphone would give me the option to buy a small module or something to let me do it.

Yes, yes there’s adapters … yes, yes, you don’t need to use it … I understand. I just want it.

The rich will fix it by putting out disinformation campaigns telling you it’s all fake.

There’s one in Cornell around where I live. I “booed” it and my friend hit me. I was like, “they bought that truck to get attention, it just so happens it’s negative”

Whenever these things come up you always hear “then the company won’t survive!”

CEO and managers make bank somehow but it doesn’t matter that the workers can’t live on that wage. It’s always so weird how when workers actually take a pay cut, that the businesses get used to it. When the CEOs get bonuses they have to get used to that too.

That’s like one and a half Twitters?

online human friends still can’t compete with seeing them in person … wtf a chatbot gonna do to fix this?

Not saying we shouldn’t talk to friends online and stuff it’s just that real humans are having difficulties filling these gaps.

Also, why the fuck would I want a friend like that’ll snitch me out and be used to sell me shit? I swear, he wants us hooked on these things and be like, “Subscribe now or your friends will be shut off forever!”

Ah yes, we all know it’ll end here. Trump is known for his consistency.

An apropos of that. I’m Chinese/Viet half-and-half and was born in the UK. I have friends in the UK that are half-Chinese and half-British (white/caucasian). I had no idea that there were so many “half-Chinese” specific groups online.

Also, I can’t remember but there was some business about having a Chinese dad was better than a Chinese mom (I could have them switched). However, it’s mainly boys/men with this problem and they’re having issues dating or with school and everything and blame it all on their Chinese parent. My friend tries to chime in to talk some sense into them but the self-victimization is really strong and he gets pushed out.

They display the product’s energy efficiency rating, on a scale from A to G, along with battery life, the number of charge cycles the battery is rated for, letter grades for durability and repairability, and any applicable IP rating for protection from dust and water.

It looks like individual scores for the battery and repairability. The battery score seems to be just charge cycles. Repairability would probably something similar to iFixit but we’ll have to see. I do like this though or at least the attempt of it.

Alongside the labels the EU is introducing “ecodesign requirements” imposing minimum standards on the same products. Those include protection from splashes of water (and dust particles larger than 1mm for phones), scratch and drop protection, batteries that retain at least 80 percent of their capacity after 800 charging cycles, and making “critical spare parts” available within 5-10 working days.
