Assuming he was brain dead, at least he probably didn't consciously experience that pain, in spite of whatever involuntary bodily spasms he might've made on life support. The man you knew died painlessly at least, and I hope that brings you some peace.

Isn't the balkanization of the US explicitly part of Russia's goal, and establishment of city-states (or CityCorps) the explicit goal of the dark enlightenment types that Peter Thiel is backing?

I have both, but I also have ADHD and prioritize the novel over the good. I find cilantro and bitter foods to be more interesting, and don't mind them at all.

Damn dude, seems like you're still winning to me. Just having that support goes a long way, hope you can keep at the weight loss (progress is progress) and have more good mental health days than bad (the more you practice the easier it gets, even if it's never easy).

I'm apparently both the shirtless guy (Gentoo) and the arch user. But I'm also the Kali user and Windows guy occasionally. It probably averages out.

It'd be much easier if they weren't human.

Insofar as gender is a social construct and potentially unique to a person, one could say that gender's maximum file size would be equal to an entity's conceptualization of their gender. While you might be able to parse out the "gender" portion of a standard human brain by mapping the various neural connections' patterns that form the basic archetypal building blocks that eventually model gender through their activation in series, that excludes the possibility of a non-human brain that could have a much more defined, complex conceptualization of gender. While there is likely an upper limit given inherent physical limitations in the emergent phenomenon of sapience, there is much yet to be explored in this topic.

Oh definitely, it's not like Lemmy is overflowing with it and I can't imagine the author is the one posting here. I'm just saying that if you're sorting by hot or active you increase the odds of seeing content with these spelling mistakes or silly errors by calling it out, so instead of the presumed effect the corrector wanted, i.e. either getting the author to change it, the poster not bother, or having it seen fewer people, it generally has the opposite effect.

Spelling mistakes getting called out increases engagement. I'm not saying it was done on purpose in this instance, but in general it does make sense that you'll see more posts with spelling mistakes because they'll rise to the top. The only winning move is not to play.

While I can acknowledge that you should judge individual articles or sources on their own merit, it appears there is some concern regarding The Nordic Times as a neo-nazi mouthpiece. Food for thought.

Usually that's a wide-brim hat, especially after the last wispy vestiges of your hair cross the rainbow bridge.

I love the strands of spider silk in the last panel.
