There is a certain type of person who fanboys out toward Apple, and a certain type of person who buys things to show off as status symbols. I don’t think those types overlap much these days, which is why we’re seeing the iPhone Air fail.

15·2 days agoA satire site called “The Dunning Kruger Times” is both painfully obvious and perfectly genius.

Today I Learned (TIL)@lemmy.ca•TIL that there was a man named William Patrick Hitler, a man who could have been a Nazi prince yet instead became an American veteran who helped defeat his uncle's empire.
5·2 days agoI did, but obviously accidentally skipped over that part.

IIRC, these are the children who’ve all decided not to have any children because of the bloodline.

131·3 days ago“The New War Crimes” works better out loud than it does written down (say it out loud with an emphasis on crimes) but is so apt I’d like to see it catch on.

news@lemmings.world•Trump threatens ‘legal and criminal review’ of voting if Newsom’s Democratic redistricting measure wins in CaliforniaEnglish
42·8 days agoThe California one is defensive, and exists as an annulment of Texas’ undemocratic redistributing.
Republican states are going to do it anyway. And they won’t put it to vote (like California had.)
It’s an optional service, not baked into the core product.
I’m the “anti-ai” person in my group of friends. Which isn’t strictly true, I’m bearish on AI, not wholly anti. I find Kagi’s separation appropriate, and actually finds some use (and better results than ChatGPT) with their AI assistant. It’s particularly useful for me debugging simple scripts and excel formulas.
It isn’t perfect overall, but well worth the few bucks each month. It’s one of the only subscriptions I’m not actively trying to get rid of.

611·8 days agoSo, an imaginary candidate is preferred over Newsom, imperfect as he is?
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Republicans don’t, which is why they’re in power.
Champion the overtly and successfully progressive when they’re available, and the less progressive to be better.
Here in the real world we need candidates who are electable.
Wrobleski did not INTENTIONALLY hit Giménez.
Timing was suspect, as it came after Giménez appeared to almost lean into the previous pitch, but Wrobleski isn’t intentionally hitting the nine spot in game 7.
All in all, it was a respectful series and the I too am super proud of the Jays. Was a great series.
They named a bedroom after Lincoln, and as far as I know it has an attached bathroom.
You would think if the immigration hot bed of California were boosting the numbers, we wouldn’t have lost two seats in the 2020 sentences.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why can't we (states) ignore clock changes without the federal government? The federal government doesn't seem to care about standing laws.
8·13 days agoThe answer is that there is a law, The Uniform Time Act.
Ad to why we just don’t ignore it, I’m sure it’s because the support for it just isn’t strong enough to merit ignoring a federal law.
That’s a banger, I like it. Had not heard of him, but I’ll seek more out. Thanks.
How young do you think boomers are?
