If someone finds out that this is fake, please just… shh, let us have this one

As soon as I saw the logo the theme song played in my head.

My criticism would be that there’s no cuticle, but if it’s 100% realism you’re after then I guess that’s not top of the list…

Can’t stand it in my ass (Mungo’s Hi Fi)

I hadn’t heard that, so I looked it up. It’s true, although it was every six months, not three, and California has closed that loophole now (dealers now issue and register temporary plates for new sales). I didn’t see anything saying he’d parked in handicapped spots outside of the Apple car park.

I don’t know this meme format, who’s that? Tim Apple?

Or (B)ritain? Once I even found (T)he UK, which I only discovered by searching the page source.

It’s almost a productivity hack.

You’re right, and even the Lemmy devs get this wrong in the docs:

You can upvote posts that you like so that more users will see them, or downvote posts so that they are less likely to be seen.

Note that it doesn’t talk about the quality or appropriateness of the comment, just that you can suppress it by downvoting.

I just woke up and this confused me

The Indian guy one is brilliant.

This is some weird throwback. Back when Lemmy was using web sockets (before Reddit blocked third-party apps) there was a bug where a page would update with different content, but replies would go to the original post (iirc), but it was fixed ages ago.

It took me a bit to recognise that as describing “effete”. I don’t think you found the best definition - the main way it’s used today is affected, overrefined, and effeminate.

I love that track, thanks for sharing this analysis.

This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn’t been so vague. As is, there’s too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

It took me way too long to remember about tails.

I think that because you’re attributing those views to “the citizenry”. I can only go on the words you’ve used, and you’ve used a word that describes the whole country’s population, not a small minority.

The make-up and mindset of the citizenry doesn’t change just because the government changes.

It’s a small minority from the far right rioting, with massive counter-protests. You’re trying to say the whole population is rotten based on a few negative examples, which ironically is just what the racists are doing themselves.

Rats definitely can (also for TB), and you can sponsor them to do so: https://apopo.org/

Magawa was a famous example: https://time.com/6138994/magawa-dies-landmines-cambodia/

I can’t find a suitable word in English, but I’m shocked and dismayed that German doesn’t have anything we could steal.
