71·2 years agoBiden is already a dictator, the supreme court decided that. He has the responsibility to use his powers as a dictator to return us to a democracy, but he’s too out of touch with how much the political landscape has changed to do anything about it.

I’m finally coming around to this after decades of being steered away from it by The Simpsons (https://youtu.be/CQod276-7Mo?si=F5_Suzq41QAK_Wtg).

Panko bread dough is placed between two metal surfaces, and is cooked by running an electric current through it. This avoids any crust forming, causing it to be very uniform.
I imagine you could do the same with brownies.

News@lemmy.world•Study reveals "widespread, bipartisan aversion" to neighbors owning AR-15 riflesEnglish
51·2 years agoIt says “a leading cause”, not “the leading cause”. Depending on how long your list of leading causes is, anything could qualify.
I skimmed the source they linked, and it lists guns as the leading cause of death for ages 1-19. I did not see an overall list.
I would agree that a more carefully phrased sentence would have been better and less misleading.

News@lemmy.world•Judge finds Donald Trump in contempt for 10th time over gag order and threatens jail timeEnglish
1·2 years agoThat is irrelevant. If Trump’s behavior would cause a regular schlub to be jailed, then he should be jailed, full stop. That’s how the law is supposed to work.
I pay for YouTube. I’m mildly optimistic that this won’t make it into the paid version, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if it does.
I’ve already had to cancel Amazon Prime after they made the base tier have ads, but continued to show ads after paying extra for ad-free.

Shortly after the vote, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce said it would sue the FTC to block the rule
The US Chamber of Commerce is a right-wing lobbying group for businesses, unrelated to the US Department of Commerce which is an actual government agency.

No, sorry. Ethically, this technology can only be used for torture.

One of my favorite lines in the game is (paraphrasing):
The problem with the bugs is that they’re relentless expansionists. We’ve found them on almost every planet in their territory that we’ve colonized.
It’s also pretty clear that we’ve been farming the bugs for space oil.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump says some undocumented immigrants are ‘not people’English
24·2 years agoThe Overton window has shifted so far right that basic decency or acknowledging facts is leftist.
The only selling point of blockchain is that it’s trustless. This becomes a less-useful property when it comes to things in the real world, as you tend to need to trust at least one party.
For example, anything they achieved there with blockchain, they could have achieved with a simple government-run web service and a traditional database.
That is not a use for blockchain.
Say I want to say that I created an image. I could post that image’s hash to a block chain, and point to it as something anyone can check.
But you already have to trust me for that to be valuable. So I can just host that hash in any of a myriad of conventional methods that are simpler, more performant, and less wasteful.

201·2 years agoBut you can delete your copy, ask others nicely to delete theirs, and refuse to accept more copies of the same thing.
I’m not sure if Lemmy supports any of this, but it seems pretty important for e.g. child porn.


Jones on you, I can’t snap my fingers.
