I think Harris could have had a more nuanced answer than, “Fracking, fuck yeah!” But it’s a damn shame that, to win the electoral college you have to be all drill, baby drill.

Although that’s politics… “It’s great to be here in Chicken Fark, Arkansas! I know, in the past, I have been accused by my opponent of being opposed to chicken farking. But I’m here today to tell you that, if elected, I promise to fark more chickens than any president in history!”

Still voting for Harris, obviously.

I’m assuming open houses aren’t a thing in Belgium? In the US, it’s no big deal to walk in to an open house and just tell the agent that you live in the neighborhood, like the house and have always wanted to see the inside. They’re usually pretty chill about that.

On Mastodon, too. Some of my more niche interests are better represented there since Mastodon has more active users than Lemmy.

Ubuntu 9.04, because of WUBI (anyone remember that?). Unstable as hell, but allowed you to run a near bare metal Linux install without the hassle of setting up dual-booting and a separate partition. Liked Ubuntu it so much that I soon replaced Windows completely. Currently running Debian, so I haven’t strayed far from the family.

For the record, the problem in Norway was that government programs to encourage electric vehicle ownership were too successful and incentivized people to drive instead of use transit. Also, the financial incentives for purchasing electric cars mostly went to people who were already wealthy.

Better before. The brick gave the facade character. The “modernized” exterior is bland and weird.

I have this one. It’s hurricane force when turned up all the way. never had a problem pushing anything with it.

I also recently bought an electric hedge trimmer, which I love. Should have bought one years ago, it saves so much time compared to hand clippers.

Leopards eating faces is exactly what this is, though. “Muslim who supports Christian Nationalists because they hate gay people shocked that Christian Nationalists also hate Muslims.”

46 at present. Furry porn sites that weren’t tagged NSFW, memes, shitposting, a number of communities from the h… server (you know the one), tankie communities.

I’m subscribed to a lot of communities, too, but I still use the all feed for discovery.

It’s not that bad, the macros are just front end apps. Our data is housed in a real, enterprise class database.
