I came here to say this.

We “don’t exist” and we want to keep everybody believing that; don’t dry to go to New Zealand, it doesn’t exist.

What is the flavor “it looks like orange, but is actually just a tub of shit”

Madam, why does your hat have a mirror on top?

You are correct, the US needs to increase speed limits to even things out again.

THIS

I work with tech; other than in my home office; there is no tech in my house.

The voice activated things…just no. I looked into Mycroft, which looks interesting, but is till a solution looking for a problem.

Deep sigh!

The lack of critical thinking on display here is so disappointing. The whole SovCit movement is quite sad. These are people who obviously feel they have no control; so they use magical thinking to feel in control of their lives…

I have 3 hungry boys to feed, I’m not sure I could carry all of our groceries in one trip. , 😁

If it wasn’t for our massive moat, I’m sure Act would have suggested something similar already.

The populist rhetoric that lot spout is quite worrying at times.

Most NZ supermarkets just stack the boxes at the front after the checkout.

Are also keep a few in the back of the car.

Or boxes; we use boxes. Carrying 3 - 4 boxes up stairs is much easier than 10 bags.

We did it a while back, you will adapt pretty quickly.

NO!

In one of their multitude of inter-nation conflicts; two cities were consumed in nuclear fire. On any sane world; these areas would be abandoned and the area around them a quarantine zone; the humans obviously not being fully sane, rebuilt and flourish.

This is related to the fact that humans along with most of the inhabitants of Sol3, are highly resilient to damage; of all kinds.

Humans reproduce slowly; but even though they generally reproduce not far above replacement rate, their resilience means their population still grows at an exponential rate. And on top of that; their advances in medical technology are on the verge of massive life extension. Soon they will have to move out into space; the galaxy better get ready for them.

This is the way.

Getting my 5yo to accept that he can peddle and balance by himself; takes longer than the ability. He used to crash once he realized I had stopped balancing him, sometimes it would take a minute or more.

So is walking

I do indeed.

I also took a job far closer to home last year, I’m only commuting 8 minutes each way now.

Look at this guy, blithely inviting a holy war to his doorstep.

The needs thing is interesting. But you can’t really have a conversation about the higher needs without the lower needs being satisfied first.

The flail.

Always the flail.

Yes, I was involved in a bunch of Reddit communities that were really good.

But it go to the point where it shit the bed; it was time to leave. I was happy to find Lemmy. I haven’t been back to Reddit in around 6 months.

I don’t do algorithmic social media. So Lemmy is really up my alley.
