  For sure there are alternatives, but I doubt there’s a lot of overlap between kids who want books and kids who want some e-currency. Probably not much overlap with gift givers either.

  I doubt this has any stainless in the frame. Really it should be a comparison of stainless vs aluminum and plastic body panels

  When they make plywood it comes wrapped up super tight in a tree

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a “proper“ way to say “6:05 AM”?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like it’s the same as the way we date things as well. American is month (larger unit) then day (small unit) whereas 5 after 6 gives them in small to largest.

  I do wonder about the syntax once you add seconds to the time.

  Hot take: this is better than them getting a bunch of plastic crap that will end up in a landfill in 6 months.

  There is zero reason anyone should use LastPass when bitwarden exists.

  Just start using it for everything and confuse everyone… I mean E6E

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What games have the best mining/smelting/forging components?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Factoria, although it’s more about automating those things. Satisfactory or Dyson Sphere Program, which are 3d versions of the same concept.

  If you want more of a creating bench style, there’s a whole crop of games under the “open world survival craft” genre such as valheim, raft, rust, project zomboid, green hell, and so on.

  Surely we should know, right? Cartoons or hentai or whatever must have gone through this at some point?

  It’s not what’s intolerable, it’s what’s intolerant. Misogyny is clearly intolerant of women.

  Exactly, one point of lemmy is not too be capitalist bullshit where shareholders need to see numbers going up.

  Post.news is exactly that

  Technically, YouTube runs on your computer as well as their servers. They could put a crypto mining script on there if they wanted,and I think most people would concur that that is unacceptable.
