That's even more bizarre than my story lol

Usually excessive salivation is a sign that I'm about to vomit so I think I would have wound up in the stall as a precaution

I watched a video of this flood and was floored. It was somehow scarier than the footage of the streets in Japan in 2011.

I guess maybe because of how "calm" it was. It wasn't a thrashing wall of ocean waves bouncing between buildings, the river just rose and rose until it poured onto the overpass

That's kind of a childless thing to say lol

I also don't have any either but I have enough friends and family with young kids to know that it's unrealistic to do everything well so you have to pick and choose which parts of your kids' lives are worth the extra effort.

Every parent I know would jump at the opportunity to outsource the tedious crap. Some people love party planning but for most, there is little enjoyment to be found researching and booking a birthday party for a child.

Commercial solar panels often move with the sun, too

Jokes aside, it was nearly a steady stream off my head. I had to make a bath towel turban

Please keep your opinion to the comments - this is a news community and the title makes it look like the author of the article is saying something they're not.

But they never said that. You just mashed up the article title with a YouTube video...

The other day I had a weird experience with pores and sweating.

I was given a family-sized bag of chips that were "too spicy" for my parents. They were spicy, sure, but not painfully spicy.

However, my body's reaction was not the usual sweating... It was to excessively sweat from a square inch spot just above my temple.

I could literally FEEL the sweat coming out of the pores. I went to the mirror and watched it pour out like a damn faucet. It was fascinating but very uncomfortable, both physically and psychologically

Super weird.

Oh, so that's how you pronounce the new Maruja song

"At least one man holding a fish"

I don't have much sympathy when she clearly wasn't on dating apps very long

And yet there's people whose autism is severely debilitating...

I'm certainly not saying autism makes you stupid but people diagnosed with it have a huge range of intelligence so it's unfair to say it "makes you smarter" IMO. There's no proof of causation even if it often does correlate

Maybe anon should get some better games

 

I just moved into this house and was back there to think about what to plant and was quite happy to find this. It's behind a big pine tree and I can't see it from the windows or patio. I was just back there a week or two ago so it was quite a surprise.

I think they came from my neighbor's yard. But the interesting part (to me) is it's the neighbor on the opposite side and there's no peonies in between.

I might get some more and turn that area into a flowerbed with some ground cover.

 

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this (feel free to point me to a better community) but I'm in a weird "predicament" this summer: My AMD build plans are in shambles after receiving a free ROG Astral 5080.

Now I want to make the switch now with my current (Intel i7-13700K) hardware + this new card. I was only considering AMD before but it's really hard to say no to a video card worth more than my entire budget lol

The slightly worse performance compared to Windows is still an upgrade from my 3070 so that's fine - It's initial/recurring troubleshooting I don't really want to deal with. Most of the info I've found is from earlier this year and no one speaks highly of the beta drivers

Sorry if this is a stupid question but am I setting myself up for disappointment with this new plan? I have a few more related questions I'll toss in the comments but that's my main concern.

 

I feel like it's just marking the report as Read...is there not a way I can remove a comment from this page?

Do I have to go to the post and scroll down to find it every time? There's a huge backlog of reports from before I got asked to mod

 

Original mod had the same idea as me (get an fpv community going) a year ago but hasn't been active since

Just made a post there: https://lemmy.world/post/29489997

 

Do you think we could get an "About Community" button on there, too?

 

Forgot I had to give my dog an unexpected bath yesterday and used all the clean towels

 

Example comment

It renders correct in a browser but all the line breaks are replaced with a weird symbol in the app.

Not a big deal or anything but I wanted to share!

 

~~None of them do anything~~

Now they do! If you're getting the same issues, update to the newest beta

 

I have a "flexible" WFH schedule which means I'm almost always working from home. Today, I've been lured in with an NDA breakfast with a manufacturer.

So you know what that means: 1 hour of "yum I love breakfast sandwiches" followed by 6 hours of "why did I think that would be worth the drive?"

 

My friends and I were active Twitter users up until it got sold and the only reason my account isn't deleted already is because I have a LOT of memories there.

I looked into downloading the tweets.js archive but that seems to be only what I wrote, not the original tweet if it's a reply. Having the full conversations that led to in-jokes is what I'm after!

I understand why this would be very complicated and to add to that, half of our profiles are set to private so The Way Back Machine and other public services won't work. Media would be nice but it's not a requirement.

Does something like this exist?

 

The bolts for the handle prevent going from top to bottom in one motion across the whole door so I had to adapt. Over time, I've become pretty good at removing all the water to prevent streaks when it dries even on the sleepiest of mornings.

 

I saw a post referencing Lemmy's "obsession with beans" and it made me think of this.

Despite narwhals and bacon becoming something you say sarcastically to make fun of redditors for the past 10+ years, some users here tried to make "beans" the Lemmy equivalent and for a week or two, half the posts here were about beans....then it thankfully stopped.

Since then I've seen a handful of bean references but a significantly larger amount of references to bean references.

Beans were a blip in the Lemmy timeline and i's like gaslit us into thinking Lemmy is actually obsessed with beans. The posts/comments get upvoted but...where are the beans?

Just thought that was kinda funny.
