  You get a comparison of electric vs natural gas flow in your energy bill? Wow!!

  I mean, there are countries where natural gas is billed per kWh. And the OP said

  And kW and kWh are still commony used measurement if you don’t use electricity. Diesel or propane heaters have labels on them on how many watts they can output right next to the fuel consumption per hour and so on.

  Definitely a fake tough guy, but not in the way you meant. The whole image is fake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They said the packaging would be discreet!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  … nobody came forward to say that the image is in fact photoshopped? It’s part of the joke. It’s from a facebook group that does these things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Struggling⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The fact I thought it was plausible says a lot though.

  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Comments from multiple posts on the same page⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy shows links to all the posts about the same link (I think) so it doesn’t feel like an improvement over that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kagi search engine now has a Fediverse search option.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There was this debacle, at least

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The best instance to host a big community in Finnish?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Finnish group for no-fly travelling

  Out of curiosity, does it always start with a boat trip?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s so weird, because comment deletions do get federated (mostly)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨my version is better⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That reminds me of Night Sky, which has “I will ne’er be free” but it sounds a lot like “I will now be free”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I never realized this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy is no better than Reddit in terms of sexism and media literacy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I never realized this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  … just pass on the mother’s name to your children? Eventually it matters as much as that your ancestor was a smith. (and that’s besides the “not everyone wants to lose their name on marrying” point)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I never realized this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OP’s comments don’t seem very satyrical :')

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the council⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My guess is eating something in the middle

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨sampling bias⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oof I didn’t know that was a Scott Alexander thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Petrichor⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’d think more African animals (especially predators) would have that ability, then

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PieFed, a FOSS Feed Aggregator alternative to Lemmy, but faster⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it support importing Lemmy subscriptions?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PieFed, a FOSS Feed Aggregator alternative to Lemmy, but faster⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  hilariouschaos (set up by the old exploding-heads guys)

  …really? I always got the impression that the admin is some teenage girl

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any truth to this?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For many platforms it’s even just the original user base that’s toxic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨True Love⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  500 days of summer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Niche Communities won't be able to reach their true potential until lemmy adds a sort that takes engagement into account.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Weird question, but does it not have a Subscribed view? I can’t find it anywhere

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We're not going to terraform Mars, but we're doing a good job of venusforming Earth.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you can make people survive on Mars, you’re more than able to make pockets of humanity survive those disasters on Earth

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We're not going to terraform Mars, but we're doing a good job of venusforming Earth.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Musk is desperately trying to make “women come from Venus, men from Mars” reality

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leeches!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  a’ſ

  That’s an “also”?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Give them space!!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That blue book better contain exactly 65 normal topological spaces, no more and nothing else

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Capsaicin⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s basically how you’re supposed to do sauna in Finland

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Harm⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You leave my unit circle alone!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A personal finance community, hosted on fedia.io.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like this new one is only for the US though, so it’s not a complete replacement

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨House of Flesh⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Like a person living in a tent made from hide and bones

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I not be an adorable junkie⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, he’s just a film buff
