The answer is “they weren’t. The study had nothing to do with that.”

It’s about stress levels, and how rats who were in control of the vehicles were less stress than rats who were just passengers.

He’d use the N-word, and make “jokes” like paying people to make a sign that said “death to all Jews”.

I assume that he was trying to be edgy, but it was a little too far.

He did/said a bunch of racist shit in videos/streams.

In 2019 someone livestreamed themself committing a hate-crime/mass shooting, killing 51 Muslim people in New Zealand. The shooter began his livestream with “subscribe to Pewdiepie!”

That seemed to be a rude awakening for Pewdiepie, and I believe that he’s stopped with the racist shit.

The comic, for anyone unaware:

It’s very “My name is Prince Andrew and I cannot sweat”

RFK’s “brainworm” was just an excuse to pay less alimony to his ex-wife, because he claimed that it reduced the income he could make.

The only proof of the worm is RFK saying that it existed, but he claims that his brain fixed itself two years later, and he’s all better.
His ex-wife he died by way of suicide by then, so he no longer needed to claim that he had reduced capacity in order to pay her less.

If you read the book “Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and the Dark Side of the Dream” it outlines how he was cheating on his ex-wife, sexually assaulting the babysitter, and would often tell his ex-wife that she should kill herself.

It would be better if he did actually have a brainworm, but it’s more likely that he’s just the kind of monster that would become part of Trump’s circle.

Ah, that makes much more sense. Going back to double check things, I article I saw user the wording “he banned them at the inauguration”, which I understood as “during his inauguration, he signed a bylaw which banned raspberry pi devices”.

Thanks for the correction!

I believe he banned raspberry pi devices, which is dumb.

Edit: they were banned from an event, not banned in general.

I willingly learned excel in the past 15 years!

I have since moved on to open source replacements.

Non-latex non-animal condoms are quite common where I’m from, are they rare in your country?

Welcome, I hope you like it here!

Lemmy isn’t, but lemmy.ca is hosted in Canada.

Lemmy.world was made by people from the Netherlands, but lemmy.ml is the original Lemmy.

Some of them you need to open the image in a new tab/full-screen it to see.

The ports on the laptop are different in each image.
The resolution of the ports is much, much higher than other parts of the image.

The image has a bunch of fake compression artifacts.

One character in the second panel has an eyebrow, the others don’t. The line-weight on the eyebrow doesn’t match the rest of the comic. That character has its mouth open, but the speech bubble isn’t connected.

I assume that rule 2 is more of a “don’t post memes that contain politicians”, since nearly everything that we say or do is political in some sense.

“now” is odd phrasing from an 8 day old account.

I think I’ve seen this artist’s work posted here for over a year.

It looks like you accidentally made your post in the larger header font. If you remove the hyphen at the end, it’ll be normal size again.

Saying 6-7 at random times is the gen-alpha “lulz pancake waffles XD”

Some instances are kinda obvious to figure out what they have in common, like the now-extinct VeganTheoryClub, but some are a little harder to figure out, like the ml in Lemmy.ml is for Marxist-Leninists.

Something that’s a little different compared to other social media platforms (and isn’t on your list of thought/questions) is being able to judge books by their covers.

Since you can choose which is your home instance is based on the rules, moderation, and general vibe, the instance someone is from can tell you A LOT about them. There are some users who just mute all users from certain instances, because of this.

If you’re on Lemmy.world (which is based on the Netherlands, but everyone just assumes is from the USA), you likely won’t be muted because of your home instance since it’s basically the default.
