Huh, I remember one of the few draw backs of fiber optic cables being that you had to be very careful with them, because bending them could easily cause them to crack and no longer work. I’m guessing that must no longer be an issue!

I mean, not in our lifetimes, perhaps not in our species lifetimes, but the planet has proven itself to be pretty damn resilient

The voice is very similar to mine, which really trips people up when I use it lol

My Google Pixel uses AI to answer the call in the background, and will automatically report as spam and block these calls. I haven’t gotten a spam call in over a year

Read this article if you want to feel horrible and powerless

I remember posting “stand with Hong Kong” shortly before I lost faith in humanity. This news is sad, but not unexpected.

That would be shocking if true. The US takes its naval defences very seriously

You could donate it to me and pay for my lunch on the overnight shift! ;)

In all seriousness, I haven’t looked into beyond a 5 second Google search, but GiveDirectly provides direct cash transfers to impoverished people across Africa, allowing recipients to decide how best to use the funds. Since 2009, they’ve delivered $800M+ in cash directly to over 1.6 million people. GiveDirectly accepts Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies such as DOGE, XRP, and LTC to support its activities.

It’s the squishy stuff that makes up the ground of playgrounds

What did you do?

Personally, I find that if I work in a day, then I’m drained. One great thing I was able to do was find a job that has longer hours, because working 8 hours and working 12 feels the same to me, but now I get 2 extra days off. With 4 days off I can have a recovery day where I do nothing, a productive day where I catch up on life’s demands, and 2 days to spend however I choose.

Maybe you keep getting permabanned because of your fixation with murder my guy. Your comment history is concerning

Is … Is the US trading with Russia?

Edit: pretty much no. Dumb rage bait article

Double edit: fuck you, lemmy

I have my apps set to auto update, so I’m not sure

I enjoy using Finch

So… people with addictions are treated as people and provided for, and they ‘can’t complain’ about their overall circumstances. Therefore the Finnish are emotionally stunted? There’s a leap of logic here

Immediately after taking away Ukraine’s access to satellites that help counter missile strikes, Russia bombs Zelensky’s home town successfully. It would make for a very entertaining plot point in a story, but it’s incredibly depressing in real life
