I think it has more to do with minors operating machinery in the workplace. If he was 18 it's "just" a horrible workplace accident. But since he was 17, it was illegal for the company to have him operate that piece of equipment and that's why they were in court over it.
The only way I enjoy drinking robusta is doing Vietnamese coffee with a phin and adding plenty of sweetened condensed milk. One thing to be aware of is that robusta has about double the caffeine of arabica. So depending on how caffeine affects you, you might want to take it easy.
I overcompensate for my subpar burger grilling skills by going all out with the fixings. Toasted sesame bun, cheddar, crispy bacon, ketchup, red onion, fresh jalapeno, tomato, romaine, mayo. Squash it down and chow it down.
I'm curious how big of a dip there was with macOS when they fully dropped 32 bit support. I'm just one person but a lot of the games I played through steam were older 32 bit games. I don't think I've opened steam on my Mac since that update.
It bothers me that people find it out so supremely confusing and it's definitely an issue that needs to be addressed because it's definitely keeping people away. The fact of the matter is, you can go to any Lemmy instance and get that front page experience because the r/all equivalent of each instance shows threads from every other instance (minus defederated, etc but that's beside the point).
Sync helps in that it is a familiar and polished look and feel for those who used third party Reddit apps, but outside of that it's just another Lemmy app.
Probably the biggest factor in the confusion is fediverse terms being used to describe the fediverse, which is basically speaking nonsense if you don't already understand it.
There's this: Lemmy is a federated link aggregator where anyone can start an instance and communities within that instance and all the instances can communicate and share information. Doesn't it sound amazing?
Then there's this: Lemmy is like a version of Reddit where there's a whole bunch of separate reddit dot coms. You can sign up for whichever one you like to be your home "reddit". The reddits are all connected, so you can subscribe to subreddits on the other reddits while just logged into your home. You can also post to them, comment, and see the posts and comments from your home.
I'm sure there's some analogy out there that really boils it down well much better than mine, so please share if you think of one.
Loving it so far! I think everyone freaking out about the pricing needs to chill out and just use a different app.
There's one thing I'm curious about and wasn't able to find in the settings. Do we have the ability to turn off the red/blue highlighting on the action area for a post we've voted? I don't like how it looks and find that the font color for the vote count is perfectly sufficient for me to know that I've upvoted and downvoted.
If you're ever in the Vegas area, I highly recommend going to the Valley of Fire State Park. I visited Red Rock Canyon, Death Valley, Hoover Dam, Zion - all of those were absolutely incredible, but valley of fire was otherworldly in ways those other places aren't. It's only about an hour drive from Vegas.
All that said, if you want to go to Vegas as a base camp for all these amazing things, don't do it during the summer. Heat exposure is no joke. This article says there was a group of hikers who had encountered these women earlier in the day and noticed that they hadn't come back, so they called the authorities at 3pm. They weren't lost out in the desert for days, they went out hiking for a day and were dead in hours.
Visiting the desert in the winter is uncomplicated. You don't need nearly as much water, you're not in significant danger just for being out there. During the hot months, it's another story. Unless you're very experienced and extremely well prepared, it's just not worth it. And even then, just go somewhere else in the world to hike while it's 115°f/46°c in the desert.
Respectfully, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Ah yes another prime example of them working with those who were willing to work with them. That's what they said, right?
"Mein Führer" and "my boss" mean the same thing. My boss definitely won't mind if I use those interchangeably. Arguing otherwise is just semantics. /s
Anytime I see an announcement about voting on a bill that seems even remotely desirable, I just assume it won't pass. I'm basically always right and it saves some grief.
I like this question, although I don't think it could work. Someone who campaigns really well, does not necessarily mean they will fulfill their office well. It also penalizes when there are two good candidates running against each other.
I could see it being more viable if the upper term limit is still along the lines of what we have today. Perhaps a presidential candidate winning an election by landslide could get a maximum term of 8 years, whereas someone just barely winning would have a shortened term of 1-2 years. I would definitely still be concerned about the negative ramifications of potentially more and more dirty campaigning to try and capture the highest portion of votes that others have mentioned.
Sure that's high, but I don't think that's quite what makes this truly asshole design though. It's that the trial is on a weekly subscription of $4.99 when a year is only $9.99. $4.99/week for a year is $259.48 which happens to be 2,597% more expensive than the annual subscription. They are hoping people select the trial and forget about it while they rake in an astronomical amount for a third party app for an open source social network.
