Expensive leather cuffs and collar? Why not $1 device instead?

Don't worry, everyone, the Democrats have a plan to stop it. /s

Holdup, there are people who don't love birds? Free entertainment, I say, just living their lives out in the wild while we work and pay taxes. Every space with birds is just that much better.

Gen Z? This bullshit has been ongoing since the early 00's. Every fucking company wants applicants with 5+ years experience straight out of the gate, with training provided by anyone else but them, and to pay the new hire as if they rolled out of their High School grad through the front door. Look to Gen Y if you want to see what's going to happen again (more self-service kiosks and useless chatbots). Many of the kids training for these jobs are going to completely abandon their chosen career track in favour of work that's responsive to their needs - things like actually responding to applications and paying their fucking rent/mortgage. I'm finding to people in their early 20's who're already sick of this shit, without a clear understanding of what's happened to the labour market.

That's it all right, thanks for the link.

I was going to ask OP, but can I petition for a country/city name, please?

Corporations: steal tens-of-billions from employees who're just barely scraping by

Me/you: shoplifts can of soda/bag of chips which should be priced at $2-3 according to inflation, rather than it's listed price of $4-7

Atlantic Magazine: [hand on hip wagging finger in face] "How dare you? There are rules that govern society, young man/lady, this is simply unacceptable."

Anyone have tips about how to convince the one near me to stop stealing my smokes? Should I set up a vape station like a humming bird feeder to keep it off my darts, or what? I keep trapping it in a pint glass like the spiders and putting it outside, but I can't figure out how it keeps sneaking back in... (ಠ_ಠ)

Anyone else seeing the almost perfect irony of a Christian news publication's name converting to CP?

Saw a clip earlier that was coincidentally perfectly topical here: https://imgur.com/gallery/they-knew-they-all-knew-0HTmIvw

Tucker can stuff his apology, this isn't buyer's regret, his influence was outsized because of his platform and led to disastrous results.

 

Quick, low-effort edit to more accurately reflect the tone of these convos IRL.

"You'd better call 911 and get the cops down here so that they can take a report and then do absolutely nothing about it. If you don't go through the motions, there won't be a 5% chance that they'll actually do their jobs."

 

Just heard the news, former director of the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation, Robert Swan Mueller III has died at the age of 81. Man, what a jawline.

I turned this setting on and that fixed the pages for me.

Have been experiencing an odd sort of error for a while now, stubborn me using a lazy workaround and F5ing the page instead of seeking a more concrete solution, but it's limiting my access to content in the linear sort of way that I had before. I'd appreciate any insight as to the source of this error.

The main page (https://lemmy.world/) initially loads correctly as per user selected attributes (Post/Comments, Show Hidden/Hide Hidden, etc.) as before, but once the bottom of the feed is reached and [Next] is selected, nothing happens.

The page simply cycles, appearing to try and load the following one while displaying greyed-out text field where post titles, link source, poster username, community are normally displayed on a successful load. After a minute or two, the page loading completes - minus the content. It's simply blank with only the static headers available (Rainbow Mouse symbol/Lemmy.World, Communities, Create Post, etc.)

Weird question, maybe, but the integrated AC/heating units in my apartment are passing the smell of cured meats into the unit. I'm talking Summer sausage, pepperoni, chorizo, coppa, lonzino, soujouk, etc., as though I were standing next to a meat counter at a traditional butcher's with links hanging from the walls/ceiling.

Aside from the remote possibility that the landlord has started storing $50K in salted meats in whatever out-building on the roof contains the building's air intake & venting, what the Hell could be producing this scent? The AC units are antiquated (50-ish years), fully electric, but not routed to any kind of boiler like some older buildings... is there some chemical of which I'm not aware that could be leaking and producing that smell? If so, it is hazardous?

I have an old bucket filled with soil which was used in years past as a stand-in planter for tomatoes on a balcony. Despite it not being particularly well sheltered from the elements, and now filled with whatever plants which have gone about seeding themselves since I stopped growing tomatoes, the pot has become a regular stop for little green sweat bees.

Long story short, I want to know about relocation of said planter (old plastic bucket for swimming pool chemicals filled with dirt, and now, miscellaneous plants), and how/when to do it. I like those little bees, and don't want to screw them over by dumping it out somewhere random, or especially during a time of year when said disruption would deprive them of shelter. Can someone offer advice on these points, please?
