Edit: Thank you, kind stranger!
I always thought that Big Bone Lick was a pretty funny name for a state park.
Retroactively justifying the existence of vanity plates.
I remember when I used to be able to find dedicated message boards for bands that I liked. Now I'm lucky if there's a subreddit where it's just a bunch of people submitting poorly drawn fan art of the band.
I wonder if they fired the person who wrote out the death sentence.
Netflix is really pushing the "boil a frog" theory to its limits...and sadly, so far, it seems as if its users are fine with it.
Serious question from someone who isn't terribly technologically literate: if other websites adopt this feature, how will ad blockers adapt? For example, would they be able to fool the site into thinking that you've viewed the ad before you actually scroll down?
There was a time in my life when I was wary of wearing out certain songs, but now I just play them to death if that's what I'm in the mood for. Life's too short to deny yourself the pleasure of hearing a song that you really want to listen to...and if you DO get tired of your current earworm, so much? There's so much great music out there that it shouldn't be long before you discover something new that you can immerse yourself in.
To the surprise of absolutely no one.
Another day, another moment of being thankful for my dedicated .mp3 player.
This won't affect me - seeing as I have no use for Instagram - but I do worry that some actual DECENT sites will adopt this in the near future.
The full article is well worth reading. It's good to find a lucid, logical deconstruction of why, precisely, this will be a complete disaster.
I see no parody in this.
When the GOP sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are convicted felons.
AMA request: The person who will conduct the presentencing interview.
Thank you! This was exactly what I was looking for.
That is, is there an archive or a mirror somewhere? I don't want to give him the traffic.
Is there a way to read all of Trump's Truth Social posts without actually visiting the site? That is, is there an archive or a mirror somewhere? I don't want to give him the traffic.
"Taking over"? This happened a long time ago.
I once had a class where, day one, the professor said something like, "If you don't want to buy the book, that's fine with me. I can't tell you where to find a copy, but maybe one of your classmates can." Someone raised their hand and started rattling off a few useful websites.
Sorry if this is the wrong community for this. I'm looking for a compilation of Trump's most rambling moments (e.g., "Look, having nuclear"; Gettysburg being beautiful; etc.). Does anyone know of any sites that would have something like this? Thank you!

I usually avoid them because of the mark-up, but yesterday I was in the mood for a soda and didn't feel like going into a store and interacting with the cashier, so I bought one out of a vending machine. I enjoyed it. What about you? When was the last time you used a vending machine, and what did you buy?
Maybe I have sensitive gums or something like that, but eating the cereal right after I add the milk makes my mouth hurt.
The far right is mad at Mike Johnson for suggesting that his adopted black son was treated differently than his biological white son.

“They’re doing this to create the appearance of impartiality so that they can continue their jihad against Donald Trump.”
They probably think it's funny, but it's actually a pretty good indictment of their greed.

RES has an option called "show images" that automatically enlarges all of the thumbnails on the user's current page. Is there a similar function available on Lemmy?
