Were you doing this from the same IP address? Cause some places check for that kind of thing.

It’s good that we’re decreasing our impact. That said, the climate is a really massive thing that we’ve been pushing against for over 200 years, and climate change now has an incredibly massive amount of momentum behind it.

Do you have more info on Sony?

Is anyone at all surprised?

Fuck those genocidal terrorists.

See, if you blow up the entire family, then you don’t have to worry about the kids growing up to seek revenge - taps temple. /S

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

spez doesn’t care, be just wanted the money for his doomsday bunker.

There’s also Eclipse Soundscapes, a citizen-science project by NASA.

Back when I took my Anthropology class, one of the things we covered (briefly) was different styles of communicating and how the unrecognized differences between those styles causes stress and frustration between different styles. My professor said the classic example were the stereotypical differences between men and women in American culture, as evidenced in the classic complaints “my husband never listens to me!” and “my wife is always changing her mind!”

There are people who communicate that they’re listening: they nod their head, they said “uhm-hmm”, make eye contact, etc. And there are people who … don’t. When a person who does this style of communication doesn’t get that feedback, they feel unheard and get frustrated. And when a person who doesn’t do that style of feedback receives that feedback, they think the other person is agreeing with them, so they’re blindsided and frustrated when the other person ‘changes their mind’.

I’d suggest explaining this communication difference style to your sibling, because while it’s a frustrating thing to your family right now, I’ve no doubt that your sibling finds (or will find) being on the other side of the divide just as frustrating.

I’d also explain that for some people, making or maintaining eye contact can be difficult, but you can get away with looking at people’s chins or ears; and if even that’s difficult, that’s fine, but then other means of communicating that you’re listening (nodding, going “uhn-hunh” or whatever) becomes even more important.

“I know there’s a ton of skepticism about Meta entering the fediverse — it’s completely understandable,” Cottle says. “I do want to kind of make a plea that I think everyone on the team has really good intentions. We really want to be a good member of the community and give people the ability to experience what the fediverse is.”

If I wanted Facebook shitposts and forwards from KlanMa, I’d’ve joined Facebook. And I don’t believe Meta has good intentions, I believe they want to overwhelm the fediverse, and I believe they want to make money. Middle-manager Cottle and their team may have good intentions, but corporate certainly doesn’t, and I certainly don’t trust their users.

I feel like something changed

He grew up a rich white boy in full-Apartheid South Africa. He’s never grown up (Tesla models S,3,X,Y! Tesla fart noises! 42069 amirite!).

Nothing changed, he just got bored and started interacting with the poor’s and people noticed the person he really was.

Adulterated honey is a massive issue around the world; at least these people are being honest about it.

It was pretty obvious that Trump would try to scam Musk. Fortunately, given his own difficulties, Musk was unlikely to agree - we’re just fortunate these bills are coming due so far in advance of the election. And also that, given Musk’s foreign birth, he’ll never be eligible to be president or vice president (something that I’m sure sticks in his craw).

Also, you don’t have to make fresh sauce everytime. You can make a large batch, then freeze it in ice cube trays, then move the cubes into ziplock.

I was wondering if maybe OP has kids.

I see five packets of cheese

Lmao, I was thinking more about how fractious reddit is even without provocation, but you’re right, too!

users could become unruly if Reddit stock falls below the IPO price.

Lmao, dude doesn’t know redditors at all, do they?

Of course they fucking are. They’ve repeatedly forced their own entrance into Al Aqsa, and denied Muslim access to it, in the past. In fact, the last time I heard of Al Aqsa violations was during Sukkot last fall, when hundreds of Israeli settlers - [which I suppose we should really start calling “violent illegal immigrants”] repeatedly stormed the third-holiest site in Islam, during the week-long Jewish festival, and were protected by Israeli forces.

Fuck Israel, and fuck their genocide.
