His body odor is as disqualifying as Harris’ laugh.

It’s not important. His insane stances are.

And why would anyone hate on someone for being good at mounting a TV?

Someone who understands.

They’re usually very uniform. Loads of people use them regularly, but it’s so awkward to carry.

I rarely do, but when I do I’m just struggling with it. I prefer a back pack for all carrying purposes myself. I just don’t get how people haven’t given up on them.

Its why I don’t visit them voluntarily. I gave up news and “news” years ago. If I look for something special I might stumble upon them. But scrolling is a thing of the past.

How did they write this “article” without the source material included?

here is the source.

Only thing holding me back from Kagi is the impossibility of privacy and a credit card associated with my user.

Did Spez trademark “im just a little shit pig” too?

You are supposed to ask questions that might be viewed as stupid, and you should receive an answer without judgement.

If you do that though you will get fucked and asked to install Linux.

Gotta love how they teased the fact that yes; The game developer is developing games. Such news.

As they would just stop making games for some reason.

Being a pedestrian in Amsterdam can be pretty bad. Dutch on bikes are insane. No slowing down is allowed. The bike might be rigged like the bus in Speed or whatever. Ready to explode.

People on heavy e-bikes are riding 25km/h over pedestrian crossings with poor visibility.

It is dangerous, and should be treated as such.

Cars in Amsterdam is a much smaller consern than bikes. Really.

Been there. Beautiful city. Terrible biking culture. The Dutch know. They reference it occasionally.

Cool. The more you know.

Funny how there are such different practices.

Fairly easy to rip off. But they sometimes leave some sharp pieces of plastic poking your lips. Also it’s annoying.

Would probably be better if the tether was longer.

So. In Norway we have this great system for returning used bottles for cash. We get 0.2$ for a 0.5 liter bottle. People are returning the bottle with the cap on. Seeing bottle caps laying around isn’t a thing.

Instead of attaching the cap to the bottle. Make a return system for the bottles. People are not systematically seperating the bottle and the cap as the cap keeps the sugary residue left inside the bottle in place instead of in the bag you carry them with to the store for returning them for that sweet cash.

Attaching the cap is a solution looking for a problem.

Having travelled a lot around in Europe I have never seen bottle caps laying the street alone. People throw them together or not at all.

This is bureaucracy time spent on caps instead of actual problems. So they could focus on actual issues instead of this shit. It’s a testament to how they blame every issue on random people instead of the industries inventing new ways to fuck up any ecosystem.

I’m so fucking tired.

It’s estimated the fishing industry is losing around 400 metric tonnes of fishing gear into Norwegian waters every year.

Now we are punished for this by attaching the stupid caps to the bottles. Why are we not able to fix problems in this society hellbent for self destruction?

Why are every problem pushed down on the working class just wanting to enjoy a soda in this capitalistic hellscape.

I work in the industry and see how the industry treat it’s workers, climate and environment.

For me it’s more important to future proof our species then feeding some capitalist hedgefund dollars.

Flagging the ships to countries with proper societal structures with military defence and laws is beneficial for everyone except the sharks. Lemmy is pretty anti-capitalist untill their cheap Chinese electronics are under threat.

IMO has codes to better the conditions at sea with SOLAS, MARPOL and MLC. With a foot inside the industry you are a fool to see these regulations are far from enough.

The regular philipine seaman is onboard 9 months on a single contract, and has to get a new contract for the next time. The regular western seafarer has a 1/1 rotation with an employment contract with a shipping company.

More expensive shipping forces less shipping. Which might re-establish local industries. Europe made much of its stuff before. Now it’s moved to cheap countries in the east. Norway sends fish to china for processing, it gets sent back and sold in Norway. This is insane to me.

Norway has 1 shoe maker left. Other Norwegian shoemakers has their head office in Norway, but production is moved to Asia.

I’m pretty knowledgeable on how shipping works. If not I wouldn’t know shit about what a flag state is.

A company in country A flags their ship to a tax haven which is country B. They hire seafarers from country C to commit to the social dumping of poor people. Usually from the Philippines or India.

They transport goods between countries with to ties to A, B or C. Which is fine of course. That’s trade.

Owners in country A enrich themselves from tax evasion in B, and wage theft from C.

One of the largest cruise companies in Norway have their ships flagged to Swiss. The land locked shipping nation of the Alps.

This is an opportunity to bruteforce the shipping companies to bring their wealth home.

I don’t believe anyone cares for Incels as people just in involuntary celibat letting their day go by with studies, work and their hobby.

Incels who are loud misogynistic is the only people we know are actually in involuntary celibat, and mad about it.

Grown ups don’t hate virgins by default.

I stopped engaging on the site after the API changes. I made a decent amount of OC on various subreddits. I believe a lot of people did the same. Now the front page is litttered with only fans ads and celebrity gossip.

I still lurk on my subscribed subreddits on the PC with the right plugins to make Reddit bearable.

A wake-up call was when someone on a dedicated subreddit said that left side politics have never hurt anyone, and I told them they would be stoked to hear about the Soviet or Venezuela, and received a permanent ban for it. Reddit is now a propaganda tool with users engaging in hyper normalisation the narrative. Anyone questioning the emperors new clothes is expelled.

Reddit and hating people is really strange. They hate Musk, which is fine. But the arguments are always how bad the cars are. (They’re not), hiwbhis rocket blew up (it was predicted it would) without admitting he owns the most successful car brands right now, and is big in space programs.

Also with Trump. Disliking him is great. But reddit focuses on his hair and skin colour instead of exposing his shitty politics or disregard for national security.

Reddit sucks at informative chooses because every challenge to an established echo chamber gets glassed in an instant.
