Technically, hippos don't swim. They run along the ground. So if you pick a deep enough body of water, you might still have a chance.

Ultra-libertarian Jingoist? I'm as confused by that combination of words as I am the flags on the truck.

The problem on Lemmy is that this gets combined with overgeneralized binary thinking, and all loosely "conservative" people get strawmanned as the intolerant outgroup, which, when this happens, actually does make you the guilty party.

Minecraft. It desperately needs some QoL improvements for it to be anything but tedious.

Give me an archive link and I'll click it every time. Otherwise, almost never.

Typical Gnome user.

The earlier kill screen just happened today by Fractal. He got the single into level 155.

Mint, and anything else that requires PPAs. Last time I distrohopped, I had a rule that if I couldn't install Librewolf in under a minute or two, it wasn't worth the trouble.

Mind you, this was before flatpaks were big, but I also own a potato and don't want to waste space on flatpaks.

You had me until STAR. STAR is just approval voting with extra steps, since min/maxing your ballot is the easiest way to game it, and, perhaps I'm missing something, but I have no idea how a runoff is actually supposed to stop it. Seems like a waste to give a middling score to someone I'd want in the 2nd place spot. I'm open to alternatives to RCV, but I don't see STAR as an improvement.

In response to everyone's sandals comments, you're really missing out if you don't go barefoot in the snow every now and then, so long as there's only a light layer. Every step is cushioned and refreshing. It's good endorphins all around, like taking a breath of fresh air after leaving a stuffy room. When the snow gets high enough that it kicks up onto the tops of your toes, that's cold.

Bold of them to assume there are that many circuits in any house built in my area. Most of the breakers will apparently control nothing, and then there's exactly one circuit that controls half the house, including the kitchen, so if you run the microwave and a blender at the same time, it'll trip.

You're on Lemmy. Lemmy hates Brendan Eich. Take the top comments with a grain of salt.
