  1. Funny comment I saw on Reddit this morning:

    "people give the placebo effect a lot of shit, but it's scientifically proven to work"

  2. Someone tell #POTUS47 that #DEI actually stands for Dealmaking Excellence Initiative and was built in his honor, and was built under the idea that we support vulnerable groups like POC and LGBTQIA in order to win over their support for MAGA.

    It might work. 🤷

  3. Oh I get it! All these tariffs are POTUS47's sneaky way to combat global warming. By increasing prices on basically everything and crashing the US economy, he's going to decrease US consumption, leading to an overall reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Very sneaky pulling off this green initiative, POTUS47, all the while gaining office from voters that don't even believe in global warming.

  9. CW: USPol Orange POTUS

    If anyone tries saying "Gulf of America" to me, I'll just play dumb and pretend like I don't know what they are talking about.

    "What are you talking about? There's no Gulf of America. Are you talking about a body of water that is south of Florida? Ah, you must be thinking of... the Caribbean Sea."

    This will provide minutes of entertainment, no doubt.

  10. Can I commit felonies and get the judge to just give me no jail time, no fines, and no community service? There's lots of crimes I want to commit free of any repercussions.

  11. CW: USpol, The Orange Idiot

    To the folks that voted for Turnip because he would be the one who would stop the US from being involved in foreign wars... Any thoughts on his plans to annex Canada, Panama Canal, and Greenland?

  12. @mmiasma At the time, I knew I could come up with a clever response to this message, but it eluded me. Finally hit me nearly 3 months later.

    "As you wheel your bins out, spare a thought and a prayer for those of us who still rely on the days of the week to know when to show up to work and when not to." 😃

  13. I'm getting random "sexy lady" avatar followers with links to their "private 18+" today from mastodon.world. Looks like they are trying a new tactic to stay under the radar by only following 10 to 15 from each account. No doubt that requires a lot of accounts, so must mean they've fully automated account creation.

    I reported them to the host moderator. Hopefully this will get nipped soon.

  14. @GottaLaff "It's like [Trump is] going on Zionist overdrive," [Hassan Abdel Salam, the co-founder of the Abandon Harris campaign] said. "We were always extremely skeptical ... Obviously we're still waiting to see where the administration will go, but it does look like our community has been played."

  23. I was just reading an article about running Windows 11 on an older, "unsupported" device. One thing the author mentions is availability of BIOS patches.

    Reading that, I realized that even if the computer is still extremely useful with unofficial Win 11, and even if the manufacturer has been security patching the BIOS up until today, I'm certain that those patches will stop on the day Win 10 reaches end-of-life, if not sooner.

  26. Amazing how a demonstrably bad idea can still pull in massive funding.

    SpaceX's orbiting data center is one such idea. Space isn't "cold", it's a vacuum, the same thing that makes high-performance insulated tumblers work so well. In orbit, shedding heat will be a bigger problem than any faced on earth, such as supplying electricity.

  27. I realize that there are reasons that Mastodon doesn't allow #QuoteTooting the way that Twitter has #QuoteTweeting.

    That said, even after 9 months of using Mastodon almost exclusively, I still catch myself trying to quote toot something only to remember that (essentially) I can't.
