Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is an embarrassing but funny thing you did? I'll start.English
9·8 months agoThat’s not even the funniest part. The purpose of saying cheese is to make the photo subject smile. If they just rolled with queso then they’d be making an o shape with their lips when the photo is snapped.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•How tough could it be to fly through that tornado anyways??English
6·9 months agoI feel bad for you. I have a couple avocado trees and we let the avocados stay on the tree until they are ripe. You can’t buy this variety at most stores because they’d get smushed in travel. The avocado is buttery and you can cut the skin with your fingernail. We end up giving them away to visitors because we have so many!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to choose one superpower that you could never turn off, what would it be?English
3·1 year agoReading this reminded me that my ears are ringing. I can ignore it but if anything draws attention it can get pretty bad.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Excuse the old man question, but if I buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max outright, with no carrier. I can set it up with my current carrier easily?English
3·1 year agoI have 256 GB and have a “family” 2TB iCloud plan. I sync to iCloud for everything and have it set to automatically manage storage. I’d only buy a larger phone if you either don’t use iCloud or if you plan to take a lot of photos or plan to use the iPhone for filming.

4·1 year agoIt works fine. I’ve bought a couple iPhone pros from Apple to use with different carriers. One with Verizon and the other with cricket and later mint. The main difference used to be that Verizon/sprint phones supported fewer GSM bands than AT&T and T-Mobile phones, which could be relevant in Europe or Asia, but now Apple only sells one model. This time I got my phone from Verizon for “free” by trading in an obsolete iPhone with a broken screen. They claim they automatically unlock the phone after 90 days. It was about $120 out of pocket for a 16 pro.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Non-Americans who have been to the US.. What is the weirdest thing about America that Americans don't realize is weird?English
1·1 year agoThat’s crazy. We couldn’t even wear polo shirts then and before 9/11 we had to wear ties.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your favorite leftist news sources?English
1·1 year agoTo me this falls more under the category of non profit independent news, primarily local news where all the corruption happens. Report for America, reportforamerica.org, assists these local newsrooms and has a spot on their site that you can search for sites local to you. These local papers are interesting because their individual sponsors are often influential people in your community who believe in democracy and are concerned about the power of corporate media. I just checked out our local online paper like this and see the same names that I recognize for people I know who support the arts.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do some Americans get angry at other people for not speaking English?English
6·2 years agoA friend of mine moved to LA from Germany to work for his German company. German was an option for the test at the DMV. He said the test was gibberish so he turned it in for an English test.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•The Offspring, The Beastie Boys, Van Halen w/DLR, and the B52s. Are there other bands that rock, but are often silly/goofy and funny?English
2·2 years agoI honestly think their version is not as good as Toto’s. Their cover closely matches the style of the original and they aren’t as good musicians. I was hoping they would make it a Weezer style cover. Toto’s version of Hash Pipe is better than Weezer’s too.

2·2 years agoHe thought Mike Patton was biting his style! I recently watched the video for Epic and I can kind of see what Kiedis is saying but honestly RHCP never had a hit like Epic before it was released. Mother’s Milk was released a few months later.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why aren't more people creating new operating systems, considering that macOS, Windows, and Linux were developed by individuals with computer science and programming skills?English
1·2 years agoMacOS XNU Kernel is based upon Carnegie Mellon’s Mach Kernel which incorporated large portions of the 4.3BSD Kernel.

Kali Linux as Chad OS suggests this list is as much meme as truth so I wouldn’t worry about the rankings.
