Where do you target your fear mongering if you don’t share a border with scary brown people? Where do you build a wall?

One thing I thought generative ai would be better at is staying focused. I think this starts well but in the second half has too many unrelated sentences

This is one of the reasons I left Reddit. Sure everyone needs to be paid for their work but it gets a little more suspect when I donate my time and attention, and it is monetized, and I still have to deal with too many ads

And someone who does NOT deserve to be paid is the “journalist” who writes those articles “LoveBunny68 on social media site Reddit said ….”. I guess I hope that is some sort of automation because no one deserves to be paid for that and I imagine an actual writer ready to commit suicide if stuck writing those

We’re all donating our time and attention to Lemmy, which is worth something even on a non-commercial site.

But yes, some of us also help with the costs and chores. I appreciate everyone who does but I also appreciate everyone who makes this an interesting place worth chipping in for

Yeah, this was a good one: I spent way too long counting fingers and looking closely at the detailed parts of the picture before I saw it

For fans of outdoor cooking, especially with this versatile pellet grill …. !traeger@lemmy.world(https://lemmy.world/c/traeger)

I just got one of these grills and am learning about smoking - let’s help each other out, appreciate each others efforts, and cook some feasts

Sort of like a biathlon: after the candidates get out of breath taking leaps from reality, see if they can swing a club

Maybe you’re right but too many of us think the opposite. I would much rather a younger more progressive candidate but Joe Biden has a track record of beating Trump. Biden has done a lot of good things in his first term that I’d want to continue. Even where he hasn’t gone nearly far enough or balanced bad with good, it may be necessary to appeal to the undecideds in the middle. Biden is the only one who can overcome the Trump personality cult

If a big complaint is age, how is that a plus for Sanders? I’m sorry but he missed his chance and now is solidly in “too old for this shit” territory

No, a trolley post would be more like this

Wow, that’s really good news for the environment if it is general to livestock, and that much more of a miss for the headline

Nice. Where do you get one of those for a reasonable price these days?

My first dog, I got exactly that for $4 from a grocery store as a seasonal thing

However, after our second dog was a fiasco, I got rid of that since we weren’t getting another dog.

Now our third dog has not been swimming. She’s a rescue who still reacts against other dogs so we can’t bring her to a lake or dog park. I want one of these pools again to see if she’d take to it, but she doesn’t like to get wet so odds are not in my favor. I think the same pool was $28 last time I saw one, and I’m not interested in throwing away that much money. Almost all “baby pools” I see now are inflatable, which wouldn’t survive a dogs first use. So are there really no cheap plastic pools anymore?

The article is missing too many details:

• Why pigs? I thought by far the biggest offender were ruminants
• The article says “cows and pigs” but how does it apply to similar animals? I’ve recently had bison and elk but there are more? Or are they enough of an edge case to not worry about it.
• There are additives to cattle feed that reduce methane emissions: does the tax make any adjustment to encourage that?

It’s all in what you’re used to. My house is never that warm, even in summer. I can sleep as warm as 22° in the summer, but always keep it below 20° in the winter.

So, yes, if I have to sleep where it’s 25° or 27° or warmer, I’m probably not sleeping well and we’ll all be happy I’m not an athlete

This system of water pipes could have made for excellent, very low energy heat pumps. Imagine how efficient that could be with a ground source only 5-10° away from comfortable at all times!

Look at Rambo over here, thinks he can take on The Toddler

The problem is buying means nothing about whether it is legit or whether a company decides they want it. It only means you reserved it. Any disagreements are hashed out after the fact in court. It’s not a game that individuals can afford to win vs a corp

Is there enough of a market for Corvettes to support a global manufacturer?

Step 0). Decide if there’s anything you dont want on a common server.

I realized long ago that my projects sometimes stall out partway through. However some things need to just work, regardless of where I am in a project. HA is a great example of something that manages itself (so less advantage to the VM) and that I want always available, so even if I decide to go down a route like you are, HA stays independent, stays available

Do you think some kids are going to be able to buy the support of politicians by outbidding the oil companies?

Politicians care about votes, money is just an easy way to get them. No, a bunch of kids by themselves brings nothing to the table. A bunch of extremists probably never gets to the table. Do you know what’s the only thing that may outrank those corporate interests? Votes. If you bring votes to the table they don’t even have to buy, you’ll get a response

Notice what’s being discussed here. You claim this type of action gets people talking but no one here is discussing their cause nor supporting it

People don’t just go “a small group I hate cares about climate change so now I don’t care”.

No they don’t, but if I want to talk about the same cause to try to change people’s minds, instead I have to explain away a bunch of extremists and try to get them to take the cause seriously despite those extremists
