What will probably happen is Trump will say a hundred stupid things no-one bats an eye to. Biden will screw up one soundbite and conservative media will twist and beat that dead horse until it get reincarnated.

“World’s Best Dad” mug with the word “Best” crossed out?

First civilian

In 1984, President Ronald Reagan announced the Teacher in Space Project, and McAuliffe learned about NASA’s efforts to find their first civilian, an educator, to fly into space.[20] NASA wanted to find an “ordinary person,” a gifted teacher who could communicate with students while in orbit.[6][15] McAuliffe became one of more than 11,000 applicants.[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christa_McAuliffe

Unless you’re in Riverwood, then all the townsfolk become hostile and try and kill you.

(My first Skyrim play through I found out the hard way people are rather protective of their chickens.)

Why do you keep starting new accounts to post this site?

Unrelated but have you looked on Anna’s Archive? They have a bunch of Bande dessinée on there that may be what you’re looking for.

First computer, Tandy Coco 2 (TRS-80) in 1988 or 89.

First phone (other than a landline) was a Motorola bag phone around 1996(?)

“No Mr Netanyahu, it is not antisemitic or pro-Hamas to point out that, in a little over six months, your extremist government has killed over 34,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 78,000, 70% of whom are women and children,”

There are even people here on lemmy trying to push that Yahoo’s bullshit narrative that the demonstrations are pro hamas. Thankfully most of lemmy can see through the crap and downvote the hell out of them.

I read an article about an ape that had bad flatulence.

Yup, and this was here in Canada.

In grade 2 I burnt down a shed causing $2000 damage in the 1970’s. (Around $10,000 in todays money)

I was playing in the shed and decided I wanted to build a fireplace… out of wood. (In my defense it was a type of laminate, so I didn’t know it was wood at the time.)

Yes as far as I know google deletes what they consider inactive accounts all the time, as well as accounts they think have breached their terms and conditions… Usually though they send several warnings before doing so, but if someone didn’t give them any alternate contact info they may not receive them.

If it’s leaking onto the metal framework it can pool in there and come out wherever it finds a hole or low spot to come out. It’s really hard to say for sure without getting under there and seeing what’s going on.

If it’s not coming from the drip pan, chances are it’s compressor oil. You probably will not want to run it until you can fix the leak and replace the oil that’s leaked out. running it without oil will kill it.

Your two choices would be to call a repair person, or to look up how (and if) you can seal the leak and change the oil yourself.

I’m more of a Mrs Doubtfire “Helllllooooooo” type of person.

My kids are grown now so my comment probably isn’t all that relevant anymore, but I don’t think there should be a set age to give your kid a smart phone. Different kids mature and learn at different ages, even ones from the same household.

For my kids, I got them their first phones in their early teens but those phones were somewhat restricted so that we could still communicate easily but we knew they couldn’t get into too much trouble with them. As time progressed the restrictions slowly lifted as we knew we could trust them more to not get into trouble with them.

I’ve always believed it’s not a parents duty to protect their child from the world as much as it is to prepare them for it. Of course kids are going to make stupid decisions if you let them go too far (we all have) so I think it’s more about slowly easing them into things and helping them make the right decisions the best we can.

I use freetube as well, but I have a feeling that it’s just a matter of time before google brings the axe down on it too, especially if it increases in popularity.

I agree, I used to work for a company that made mobile homes in a an assembly line fashion. Two of us could cut and assemble all of the interior and exterior walls in under two days for an 80 foot home. It’s all the other stuff that took time and a lot more people to piece together.

That makes me a little more sad.
