Pay more attention to smaller more local elections. There’s less “politics” around them and they usually have more of an impact on your day to day life

Yay more people to join Pixelfed!

Sounded like a cool idea at the time, at least they tried something new!

Not trying to be a smart ass, but a good pair of running shoes or being in relatively good shape to run.

Even if you do have a firearm, for example, I live in a “duty to retreat” state, and in most cases, if you don’t attempt to retreat where reasonable, before using deadly force you can get charged

Once a year, I make a spreadsheet of my transactions and sort them by name to review subscriptions.

But honestly, just scrolling through your transactions once a week it easy to catch and cancel stuff you don’t use very often

Companies would only do it if you could convince them it would make them profit in the near future

Electrical engineer, I’m more on the prototype side of circuit board design

6pm!?

Are there literal curfews nowadays for kids or is that hyperbole.

Where/when I grew up we didn’t have specific curfews, but the cops mightve stopped to ask questions if you were out an about at 2am or something. But we would typically just be hanging out and chatting after a long day of skateboarding

What’s the connection between Brave and crypto?

Dude you are probably overthinking it. I’m BIPOC too and have dated women of every “race.”

Obviously INDIVIDUALS may have their preferences, but in general, just being healthy, clean, confident, and fun to be around is 1000x more important than any racial stuff

I don’t mind a little rain on the 4th. Makes me less worried about fire accidents haha. Luckily we just had a ton of heavy rain earlier this week, so everything is still pretty moisturized

Maybe it is just where I live, but conservatives around here actually really seem to support wind energy. Wind farms actually provide a ton of high paying blue collar jobs.

I think it’s mainly the politicians paid off by fossil fuel companies trying to turn people against clean energy

I salute you! Truly need more, responsible,parents like you

Alot of voices are still pretty bad, like words and voice sound good, but their tone and emphasis is off for what they are saying.

Ollama with gemma 4 for LLM stuff, coding brainstorming, etc.

Comfy ui with z-image or stable diffusion for images.

Off topic, but it’s kinda cool to know younger folks are on the Feddiverse! Thought lemmy was just a bunch of old people like me haha

I recall a study where they trained 100 pigeons to categories categorize cancer in tissue samples and the average of all their responses was better than a single oncologist.

I’m probably not going to consult a flock of pigeons though for important things anytime soon though

One fun element is the double lift card trick reveal.

Like get their card ontop somehow and the descretly lift the top 2 cards up, pretending they are just a single card. Then you show them the 2nd to top card and ask is this your card? They will say no, you put the two cards on the top of the deck, do a magic tap or something, and then you only lift the top card, their card off the top of the deck after it transforms into theirs

I think I used to do a similar one, but with memorizing the top card of the deck and having them cut the deck! Lots of variations too and presentation is everything
