I would suggest dealing with your death anxiety through counseling so it doesn't consume your life.

You've done your part to make the internet a little bit more distributed like it was always meant to be. Good work!

I would be happy for them and I'd respect their decision to keep their finances private if they wanted. I'd also be proud that they didn't feel the need to flaunt their wealth, that's a sign of a secure and well rounded individual.

The world is complex and the vast vast majority of people in the world are wonderful humans. The closest thing we have to super villains are people like Martin Shkreli, Jeffrey Epstein, Mark Zuckerberg, etc. and those kinds of folks only make up 0.01% of the world's population. If someone's actions appear to be evil then it's far more likely that you just don't understand their perspective. And you don't have to agree with someone's perspective to understand their perspective. For example, maybe someone is working for a defence contractor designing new missiles because they were personally affected by a terrorist attack. I can understand that perspective while also believing that better missiles won't reduce terrorism. I'm not excusing bad behaviour, I'm explaining why other people might not see their actions as bad behaviour and will have a clear conscience.

I like the big ears they put on this surveillance plane. It'll be able to hear the bad guys coming

I made, "Strait to War", where you have to get a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. You can't pick your side, you just spawn in as either a tanker, an Iranian drone, or a US frigate. You have an objective but there is no real winning the game. It's an anti-war game disguised as a war game.

Sound doesn't work yet. Let me know what you think. I will add Iranian speed boats next. And I have no idea how it will scale with lots of users.

I feel like on mainstream social media this is done pretty thoughtlessly and it's a norm but on Lemmy, with the much smaller userbase, I kinda felt like... it's like riding on someone else's coat tails? Or is it just me? > > Edit: of course if it's artwork or text, obviously then I'd make it explicitly clear it's not mine but I mean news articles, memes, things like that.

To be fair, if you put the Orcas in the parking lot they'd die

That's actually really clever. Triggering an anger response with an urgency to act will reduce the victim's critical thinking and make the phishing attack more likely to succeed.

I'm going to a cabaret show tonight and I wanted to get in costume. I tried to make some fake cigarettes but now I'm worried I'll these will make me look like a perverted vampire. What's the consensus team?

This may be an unpopular opinion but we should consider moving the Canada / US border 250km north along the Detroit river. Moving the border north 250km would reduce the amount of cross border trips for the automotive industry negating a lot of the tariff issues. And I don't think the geniuses ruling the US would realize that moving the border north along this stretch would result in Canada gaining over 9000km² of land.

The reason this may be unpopular is because Canada would inherit the Detroit Red Wings.

My 3yo wanted purple mash potatoes, it didn’t really work because I used yellow potatoes. Then my 3yo decided she didn’t want potatoes so my wife and I were stuck eating prison gruel.

Google has become an awful company. I'm in the process of degoogling but it's not easy given all the monopolies they have created

I'm a Demodex folliculorum and I'm currently dating a Demodex brevis so I'm somewhat of an expert. Our host is pretty gross and rarely showers which has made the real estate in this area really expensive. We've been trying to move to another host but the opportunity hasn't come up yet. Anyway, to answer your question, we have scuba gear.
