This with Ishikawa yesterday, the news here is filled with flames and destruction. I wonder what the third day of the new year will bring?

Remember, if you're in a large retail store and see someone stealing essentials, no you didn't.

Yet again, Trump intimidates witnesses and, yet again, presents the two-tiered justice system to us all.

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!

I used to go commando. However, after one incident with a bit of errant flesh caught in my zipper, I reconsidered the error of my ways.

My fantasy go-to series is The Chronicles of Amber. Roger Zelazny was a poet, and it comes out in his prose. Dude evokes visions inside your mind.

The universe is a collection of infinite reflections between order (ie Amber) and the Courts of Chaos. Corwin is one of the nine princes of Amber, an immortal who can travel between the reflections.

I read the first five books of the series every few years. But word of warning, the first book reflects the casual chauvinism of the the time it was written. Worth powering through those bits though.

The last five books are okay, but nowhere as good as the first five.

I don't find tattoos sexy. On a purely sexually aesthetic level, I'd rather have no tats than a few tats. HOWEVER if there are more tats than skin, when a woman has made her tats her skin, like full-on rocker girl, that's sexy as fuck.

I haven't signed into Reddit since the Apollo debacle. No, I don't miss it at all. Lemmy is maturing. It's only going to get better from here. Spez is going to do something else and we're going to get even more migrations.

He got the job because he was so boring, no one hated him enough to block him. Now he's going to let his hate flag fly.

Mike Johnson, the banalityest of evil.

My vision of self driving cars was of an integrated system where all the parts weave together to create a safer and faster environment. But self driving cars are just not able to deal with the edge cases that will pop up. Even that would be okay, but GM tried to cover up this horrific accident. That inspires the opposite of trust. I gotta wonder how many other incidents have been covered up. GM is a company with limited resources. Alphabet, the parent company of Waymo, has a virtually infinite budget. How many incidents have they hidden from the public eye?

Ex-Apollo user. I've witnessed how centralized systems are inherently fragile. One asshole in the c-suite (e.g. spez) can fuck the whole thing up.

Another ex-Apollo user here. The only thing I miss is the Stable Diffusion subreddit. If everyone there would come here, Lemmy would be perfect

Nope. Even proto-cyberpunk would be a stretch. The mere presence of corporations does not cyberpunk make

I'll look into it. Thanks

Here's my experience with 99% of private trackers:
