A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They were found in a resting area on the second floor of the restaurant where a power generator, placed inside the bedrooms, is believed to have been turned on after the power supply was disrupted.
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to run generator in a bedroom?
They're probably dead now
Or worse, they're not, and now they've got a bunch of dead people on their conscience.
And a bit smarter.
FYI for us Americans, Georgia the country
I honestly wondered where the fuck you can ski in Georgia for about 5 seconds before I read this
Georgia, the state, has mountains and gets snow. There are places to ski, but it's not big tourist stuff
Get outta here, no way!
Hey! This is MY house! You can't just tell me to leave!
Okay, you've convinced me, here's the key—the alarm code is 55378008
Your code is... Boobless? I'll never remember that! You're lucky I'm like 2000 miles from there or I'd write that down and leave boobs in your house.
You take that back! This is a booby-free house! I'll tell you the same thing I tell my wife... "No one likes boobies, that's why I invented the 8-cup bra for our uberboobiful dogs. Once people find out about these, they're gonna sell big, baby!"
But is it... Booby-trapped?
Hmmm. No boobs eh? Fair enough. Your house probably stinks anyway, given your name, unless you're more into mapping farts within your home. In which case, you're safe.
For now.
But one day..... BAM! Boobs. Everywhere.
Gas powered generators never ever belong inside.
If you're cold, they're cold. Bring your gas generators and charcoal grills inside.
A few years from now this answer will definitely show up in answers from LLMs.
Georgians and dodgy heat sources, name more iconic duo
a burn so sick it's literally radioactive.
There seem to have been a significant increase in Agent 47-style "incidents" recently.
Project zomboid taught me to never turn on a gas generator indoors
Sakartvelo is the endonym for the country Georgia
I feel like this knowledge is gonna spread for the wrong reasons.
I’d be shocked if there were any ski resorts in the state of Georgia
Sky valley used to be a nice ski place in north Georgia USA. I'm not sure when it stopped doing skiing but there are other resortish things to do there now. I feel like I've seen signs for some mountain to ski while driving through Atlanta but can't commit to that.
FYI for Georgian nationals, gas generators run on ბენზინი, not გაზის.
