I'm sure it's got sodium and nitrogen in it ๐Ÿคท

DOGE's ~~shocking~~ totally expected $8 billion mistake

FTFY

 

Made this looping video on a whim this morning because you'd think they would've fixed this problem by now (after ~5 years and multiple headsets).

Wasn't sure where to share it so here you go, lemmy.world/Virtual Reality ๐Ÿ˜

DOGE seems to be really good at generating government waste.

The entire basis for this is the assumption that goods are being transported using fossil fuels. If we transport the goods using electric trucks suddenly plastic starts to look much, much worse than paper or even glass.

Aluminum is much better all around so I'm not sure why it's lumped into everything else. It's basically infinitely recyclable and you don't have to use natural gas or propane to heat it up to the melting point for forming/extrusion. There's basically an infinite amount of ways to heat things up; even to really high temperatures.

"With your powers dispersed, I can go back to playing games on my NES!"

It's from the alpha

"Take control of assets" will be the one and only court order I think they'd pay attention to.

Seize Tesla, SpaceX, and X. Tell Trump that, "they're his now" and he might suddenly start letting the courts take everything from his cavalcade of billionaires!

Gotta prevent those windmills from giving you cancer!

This is a handy joke!

 

The genie asked the man, "do you wish you were worth a lot of money?"

Onlookers watched in horror as the quickest among them broke off large golden chunks of the statue before they could even get close to claim their own prize.

 

Pool pump has been a bit weak lately: The stream of water pouring out of the hot tub "waterfall" into the main pool had become more like a trickle. This usually indicates a significant clog or that the pool filter needs cleaning.

Considering I haven't cleaned the filter in almost a year I figured that was likely the problem. It wasn't ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Turns out that there's something stuck in the intake at the bottom of the pool which means I have to dive deep with a screwdriver in the super cold water and carefully clear out whatever is in there. Probably a plastic bag or similar.

Note: Never attempt such a thing while the pump is on! In fact, lock it down with some tape and maybe a warning label that says not to turn it on while you're doing your difficult work.

Been a long time since I had to hold my breath under water. I wonder if I can still reach 2 minutes? ๐Ÿค” Probably not with this water temperature ๐Ÿคฃ

 

I just watched the final episode of If My Wife Becomes an Elementary School Student and I had to write something about it... When I first read the description of this anime I thought it looked stupid, "Another low effort anime." But of course I watched it anyway (because I run out of episodes fast on Sundays, haha) and it turned out fantastic!

The description is accurate but severely understates the concept: It's not a comedy but more akin to sci-fi or isekai with a, "what if?" scenario. What would it be like if your dead wife suddenly appears in the form of a little kid, saying she reincarnated? It does a pretty good job of going into the emotions and real-world problems (Japanese ๐Ÿคฃ) people would run into in such a situation.

For example, what about the mother of the little girlโ€ฝ Wouldn't she be like, "WTFโ€ฝ" Ummm... Yeah she would! And the show explores that aspect of the concept as well as the family of the deceased.

I highly recommend this anime. It'd probably be a great show to watch with your partner too. Also, make sure to have some tissues handy to soak up the tears!

I've heard this phrase used often by those on the right but every time I hear it I can't help but laugh because of what I picture in my head. But perhaps my image is wrong! I want to read everyone else's depictions.

So as to not influence the responses I will not be sharing what I imagine a "woke mob" looks like.
