I'm Hiding 🇦🇺

Damn who knew Dr doofenshmirtz was on Lemmy?

The way I see it, unless we each conform, unless we obey orders, and unless we follow our leaders blindly, there is no possible way we can remain free.

I read that “hello” in James May’s voice, so given that scenario I’d say neither.

Yes, but you’re still just picking the lesser of two evils.

Would it be so much to ask for to have a candidate who’s only redeeming quality is not that they’re less shit than the opposition? The ham sandwich is less shit than Trump, but it’s still not good. I’m not convinced the democratic party will be able to find someone brilliant in their own right to run for president. They’ll only be able to put in someone who isn’t Trump.

That’s funny. I remember him saying the opposite.

Am I mistaken? Just here in response to the question of whether Kamala would make a good president, he says “Look, I wouldn’t have picked vice president Trump [Kamala] to be vice president. I think she’s not qualified to be president. Let’s start there.”

Hillary didn’t lose because of Trump. She lost because she’s Hillary.

You may have a point there, I’ll grant you, but I’m still not sure Kamala can come out on top. I’d very much like to be proven wrong, but we might have to wait for the next debate to gauge what direction we’re heading in.

As much as I don’t want it to happen, I’m convinced this was the final nail in the coffin for the democrats, and the Republicans will now be guaranteed the win.

Trump was shot and is now a martyr, and the democratic party is in shambles with no nominee. If they pick Kamala, who (after mistaking her for Trump) Biden claimed was not fit to be president, Trump will just beat her into the ground like he did with Hillary. If they pick anyone else, the American population won’t know who they are. Either way, the democrats are at their most fragmented while the republicans are at their most united.

But then what do I know? I live on the other side of the planet.

Everybody in the western world wants to cry with you.

That’s true, but usually they get their method right (or close to it) but fail on the simple addition. If you use it to help figure out what steps you need to take, you can then run through substituting the correct numbers in and make some real progress.

I just completed a class on hydrology and water engineering with this method. Got a HD. That either says something about the school or something about GPT. Not sure which.

It certainly says something about my willingness to complete water engineering coursework, I’ll admit that.

Me, a young person: “both coffee and energy drinks are expensive. I’ll keep drinking tap water when I’m thirsty.”

shrugs in an indifferent hetro way

GPT wasn’t around during Covid though…

Gotta love Australian politicians. This is the same bloke who, a week earlier, was campaigning against gay marriage.

“That’s a nice headlock, sir! I see that you know your judo well!”

Oh fuck.

I’m not sure what to do with this information.

I take it webmail is due to Exchange-based mail?

The €10 I pay a year for Exquilla is worth its weight in gold. It’s about the only thing on my system that’s not FOSS, but I’m not even mad because it works. 9.5/10 would recommend.

0-100°F also has more individual degrees than -18-38°C, and when a couple degrees can make a big difference for indoor comfort (or the heating bill), I appreciate more granularity.

Ah yes, because I’ve always found 16.5°C such a difficult concept. Decimal places are hard.

I concede the “human” scale could be handy to some, but I mean - the civilised world uses metres, not feet - why should it be any different with temperature?

Show me a reboot that doesn’t suck

I suppose, technically, the Goose pictured is indeed flipping the bird.

No rule in the title??

Yes it is!
