Ray Bradbury is great. I remember convincing the teacher to do a lesson on there will come soft rains back in the day.

SomeSphinx@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct2·12 days agoAyy glad you agree. It can be hard to remember, but most people really do want to do the right thing. Sometimes, posts like this make us forget that humanity advances forward in spite of the consequences because we as a species want to make the world a better place, even if some of us are evil I feel like humanity as a whole is inherently good.

Personally, I’d rather spend it in the company of good people and do good things.
I can’t believe I’m cheering for Sweeney even once, but I guess it works out for all of us in this case.
Praise be unto RA, destroyer of Brands!
SomeSphinx@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Don't care what the reason is.English19·1 year agoMy guess is they don’t want to be responsible for lawsuits if someone eats food they had to throw out and it causes a problem. (past expiration date, damage, ect.) Then again I am not a multi-billion dollar business executive so the reason could very well be “fuck the poors” for all I know.
That’s not fair, even ugly cats are worth loving!

You know, I’m kinda surprised there isn’t a Maid IT service out there somewhere. You’re telling me I can fix computers all day AND dress in a maid outfit? sign me up!

As if the people already there weren’t people but fish or something. For those curious: Here is the Wikipedia article
listen if they held parties with alcohol at the gym I might actually go to one.

I’m surprised nobody has tried making a FOSS ecosystem for the DS, considering how often users have hacked it. All I’m saying is, I wish a company would come alone and make a DS like system with modern resolution and cameras. It might do pretty well.
Some US states require you have one on the front and back. Or at least that’s what I’ve been told by a highway patrolman.

SomeSphinx@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Over 50 per cent of users may shun social media by 2025 as misinformation, toxicity growEnglish71·2 years agoI kinda wonder where the down-votes are coming from? It seems unrealistic to assume half of all currently using people will stop using facebook, youtube, and snapchat within 2 years. As much as I’d like to assume otherwise I feel like that’s farfetched even with the study posted.

I’m not saying they don’t use it anyway, but for what it’s worth the last time I checked it was also banned.
“means more” isn’t a factual statement, it’s a value judgement and some people value being the best version of themselves more than they value leading a miserable existence because of their genetics. Environmental issues are also just that: results of the environment rather than innate expression of X or Y chromosomes. The point the OP post is making is that instead of focusing on economic policies, global warming, and wars, politicians are more focused on who decides they’d be happier as a man/woman/non binary person. It’s a complete waste of time for everyone BUT doctors and researchers since we shouldn’t be judging or limiting what people can do based on what genitals they were born with, and instead be focusing on how to fix massive, glaring, and disastrous issues such as the ones described in the post.
Much better! It’s definitely much better than when I started using it. I remember it being so buggy at first.
