Lol what the fuck? I assume you are taking about California Forever but desert is a weird word to describe the Sacramento River delta. It is one of the largest estuaries in north america.

Or just about anything by Uwe Boll

Yeah like bigballs was trying to help others. Don't buy it for a second.

Is it refering to people in their first year of university? If so in the US they are referred to as freshmen.

I'm well aware where those soundbites come from.

Its almost like rich idiots are running everything. Like they got their positions not from competency but from nepotism. That can't be true though.

Starfighter will always mean something different to me.

HOLY SHIT IS THAT A HEADPHONE JACK?!

Seriously this ticks boxes Ive given up on. I never thought Id see a phone with all three: waterproof, removable battery, headphone jack. It even has wireless charging which isnt really one of my boxes but is a little extra if you use it.

You want other opinions on Lemmy but don't want to start a debate? That is a truly stupid position.

If you want to explore the nuances of pro/anti ai, go for it. I'm here with you. The person above made a point that the genie is out of the bottle.

"Yeah, and there are only 3 states of matter! These woke scientists with their DEI alphabet soup of mattet B-E Condensates, and QSL, and DEGERATE MATTER! Its sick I tell you"

public indecency and indecent exposure may also require registration on the state’s sex offender list.

Good

The books stay the same. I liked them. I read the first two in a single sitting on a (verry) long flight. They are popcorn books. Fun without too much substance. The action is told from his point of view which is pretty jaded, its supposed to be humorous, and yes its a very dry humor.
