Not at all serious. If I see a Nazi walking down the street, I’m more likely to ignore or avoid him rather than confront him.
If the Nazis take over and implement Project 2025, among other evil acts, then that’s a different situation.

I chose to forgo the bodyguards as it draws too much attention. I’d rather stealth my way across the ten miles.
Less fake accounts, less political censorship, less trolls, and less bad faith argument clowns.
When a housing crash is imminent, it’s the self storage businesses that thrive.
Computers need to be relatively cool to function properly.
Dust acts as a heat insulator, trapping heat inside.
Dust also clogs the cooling fans from doing their job.
Most computers have built-in features that auto throttle or even self shut-down if the heat gets too high.
More dust = more heat = more speed throttling & shutdowns.
What does karma even do?
Anker. Every time I buy one of their products, I’m impressed by the quality. It’s come to the point that I’m seeing knockoff brands inserting the Anker keyword into their product descriptions, hoping a search will put their product up in view.
I don’t have anything specific, but generally speaking those who idolize war have never seen the horrors of war. Speaking with veterans who have actually seen real combat is a good place to start.
Considering the fact that corporations make up about 70% +/- of all the solution and climate destruction, and the fact that politicians are bribed by said corporations to ignore the problem, there’s little we can actually do about it except voting.
but World of Warcraft is a bit intimidating for new players, just in terms of the scope and changing seasons.
Yup, can confirm. I left wow near the end of Burning Crusade and came back to it in the middle of Shadowlands. I was so confused. Plus, nobody talks anymore. Chat used to be lively, but now players seem inconvenienced and annoyed by strangers trying to start up a conversation.
I don’t recognize the game anymore and have no interest in continuing. I tried WoW classic when it came out and had a blast. Got through Northrend leveling and then left again.
My future career as a welder. I’m currently in a paid apprenticeship and I’m stuck on the final qualification before graduation. Everything else was easy, but the copper-nickel to mild steel test keeps failing. I’m on my forth and final test attempt.
If I fail, there’s a real possibility I’ll be fired. It would be foolish of them to fire me as they’ve already invested a considerable amount of time, money, and training on me. But I don’t know if they’ll see reason, so I’m getting my resume ready for another job.
It shouldn’t be hard to find another job, this current one has already given me four years of on-the-job apprentice training experience. I just don’t want to leave this current job as I like it here.
Just Lemmy, Facebook, and YouTube if that counts. And my time on Facebook is slowly dwindling.
I guess it depends on what you intend to donwith the laptop as they’re not all built the same.
Wait… there’s a dark mode?
The problem with “conservatives” is that they don’t really stand for anything. So they have to go into politics and culture war nonsense.
You’re not really going to find anything that’s conservative yet isn’t political because modern conservatism is fundamentally hollow by design.
It depends on what I’m shopping for and what I intend to do with it. For clothing, since I work long hours as a welder, I buy cheap 100% cotton long sleeve shirts at thrift stores. They’re all going to get burned up over time, so their design, color, and/or logo doesn’t matter in the slightest. Cheap and disposable is the goal there.
Sometimes I’ll shop at thrift stores for specific types of electronics or metals not for what their intended function is, but rather for what I can turn it into or use it for. I once bought a thin wall steel pot, cut it up, flattened it out, and I now cut pieces off to fix other things.
The last thing I fixed with it was a gash in a dryer drum. I cut the damaged section of the drum out, drew an outline on the flattened steel pot, cut it out, rolled it a little, and TIG welded it into the missing section of the drum.
May all your condiment packets fail to tear open neatly.
May your internet connection be inconsistent and plagued by outages.
May all your farts be wet and untrustworthy.
Life stability and security. If all of my bills and debts were taken care of, I would be happy. I love my job as a welder and enjoy what I do. I look forward to the new work week on Monday morning.
I would continue working as a welder, even if I didn’t have to worry about money and bills.
