The only way to solve this is to assemble an angry mob with torches and threaten to burn the heretic

Anyone who decided to buy a smart toilet with internet access deserves to not have an encrypted connection

More like a take from … The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

… but not as funny :(

9/10 for your grandma … Looks like a dual boot setup … a modern fast core system with multiple speed settings on top … and an older OS that is manually operated that can be revealed from underneath (although once the power goes out, you’d have to lose the LEDs)

It sounds like you’ll fit right in … great to have you here … have fun!

Last time this happened, the country affected needed electro shock therapy to help them snap out of their delusions.

This past summer I hadn’t been to the cottage for over a month but I had some food left in the fridge. I brought home a can of opened berry jam I had there and I didn’t want it to go to waste. I ate from it three or four times before I noticed the large patch of mold that was growing on the lid and the underside of the top of the inside of the jar. I like saving food because I grew up poor but at the same time, I’m not going to send myself to the hospital to save a bit of jam … I threw the jar away after that.

I was making light of your question … partly to have a bit of fun … and partly to show that the community enjoys sharing these silly little bits of movie quotes that act like memes. The one I was using is from the movie “The Naked Gun” (the original film from 1988 with Leslie Nielson)

A lot of the meme communities enjoy old slapstick movie content as there is a lot of memeable content there … films like ‘The Naked Gun’ series, Hot Shots, any of the Mel Brooks films and Monty Python.

Don’t be afraid to test your boundaries, comment as you like but with an open mind and kind heart … people will let you know if you’ve said or implied anything negative or positive. Don’t be discouraged if you get no response either … it’s not a popularity contest. The longer you stay, the more you comment, the more you get to know people and the more they get to know you and eventually you become a regular part of the community.

Welcome to Lemmy and welcome to the fediverse.

Usually happens when you are in a rush or are not paying attention. I have that happen to me when I’m rushing out the door and decide to drink a bit of water or a coffee but want to hurry up. Then you lose any amount of time you were trying to save by standing there imagining what they will be writing on your tombstone.

Same feeling I get when I swallow an irregular shaped piece of food or one of those elongated multivitamin pills and the object decides to go down SIDEWAYS. You can feel it getting lodged at the back of your throat and then you feel it slowly painfully sliding down your esophagus as you start imagining who will be attending your funeral and what they will be saying for your eulogy.

Just you wait another few more years and I’m gonna vote so hard it’ll make your head spin

I GOT IT! I FIGURED IT OUT!!!

We make a single straight pipe the diameter of earth’s orbit, and just slightly offset it to go near the surface of the sun.

We pipe water at one end and send it off while earth continues it’s orbit. We wait six months and we’ll meet the other end of the pipe which will have nice hot steam arriving from the sun. We use the hot steam for six months until it condenses back to liquid water, then restart the process when we meet the other end of pipe again.

A few trillion dollars under the table should work

Then we have to wait until the purple PVC glue goes on sale

Couple of years maybe … maybe longer

Then we have to get rid of the clouds

We just have to pipe it faster

Why don’t we just pipe our water all the way out to the sun and pipe the steam back to earth.

Because they report the news and inform the public … their content just tends to have a four or five year lag compared to reality.

The only dumb thing I see now is how dumb America has generally become to normalize all this stupidity.

He’s an idiot president leading a nation of idiots.
