The harshest punishment the bar association can give is disbarment. What more could you want them to do?

The Elder Scrolls video game series has a race of cat people known as Khajiit. They’re often found as wandering merchants and repeat the line in OP when you talk to them. Video

Terrible location really. What were they thinking?

Do you have your languages set to both “Undetermined” and “English” in your settings? I had a problem seeing some posts with only one language selected.

Bigfoot doesn’t seem so bad.

Where do you think pizza comes from?

Jim does it get better than this??

“Imagine no private ownership of the means of production, I wonder if you can”

Same here. There’s nothing tying me to Windows other than that’s what I already have installed. Microsoft already announced a forced upgrade to Windows 11 next year. If I’m being forced to change my OS anyways I’m going to pick a Linux distro.

What do you do when you got an extra mozzarella stick on your plate?

PickitupPickitupPickituuuuuuuuup!

Imagine the line up of guys if one of those girls needed computer help.

On top of all comments generally being copyrighted by their author automatically, the licence at the bottom of a comment is like a no trespassing sign. The sign itself doesn’t stop people from trespassing. You still need to call police when someone trespasses. If you never call police then the sign is literally useless.

The licence is the same thing. If someone includes it at the bottom of all their comments, but never launches legal action when someone violates that licence agreement, then it’s literally useless. Given that launching legal action is incredibly expensive, I highly doubt the people using these licences will ever follow up. Also, how will they even know? How will they know a company used their comment as training data for their commercial AI? How are they going to even enforce the terms of the licence?

Even the Linux nerds who customize everything about their computer are probably still using the QWERTY keyboard layout. I’ve seen a lot of “arch btw” but never seen “dvorak btw”.

Lemmy isn’t really an echo chamber. It’s like saying going over to a friends place is an echo chamber because you and your friend get along. There’s nothing wrong with hanging out with people who share your values and beliefs.

The problem with social media are their algorithms. They aren’t designed to connect you with like-minded people, but to keep you engaged. The content that keeps people engaged tends to be terrible content.

The recent “a man or a bear” trend is a perfect example. Algorithms love divisive content like that because it drives engagement, but it also leads to people getting really upset over nothing. Lemmy doesn’t have any algorithms driving engagement so it doesn’t have that problem.

There are two ways to increase productivity. You can work more hours or you can work more efficiently. Japan has spent the last few decades increasing hours worked while never improving efficiency. Other Asian countries are growing their economies by building modern factories with the latest machines and tools. Japan won’t let go of their fax machines and stamps.

The number of births is the first indicator of the hope of a people

Niger must be overflowing with hope!

Bitch, you wanna make some mother fuckin money?

Also being the most abused drug. I’d say that would be caffeine. There are more people who take caffeine daily than cannabis. But this seems to be about “bad” drugs, not “good” drugs.

Remember, voting doesn’t work but negative Steam reviews do!

There’s a few features I haven’t seen many apps include for whatever reason. The instance’s modlog and the list of instances an instance is federated/defederated with are neat features Lemmy has that I can’t find on most apps.
