Conservatives like to call the West Coast the left coast. It’s their little way of making fun of progressive states.

“I know my ri-”

Trump would be okay with that because it’s still a fuck you to the left coast.

At least 2…

I actually stopped using mine a long time ago, and every time I get a new laptop, I remove it. Not because I hate it, but because I like it. Even after modifying the acceleration settings to where I like them though, the repeated stress of pushing on the nub eventually start to develop dendonitis in my finger.

After I’ve trained myself to only use the trackpad I put the nub back on. Partly because it’s so iconic it just looks wrong without it, and partly because I want to avoid conversations with guest about my growing clit graveyard (although I guess I could just not leave them in a cup on the coffee table where everyone can see)

Im 40. It had always been 15% as long as I can remember, and my memory of it goes pretty far back. When I started learning percentages in math class my parents made me the tip calculator whenever we’d go out so that would have been 8 or 9 years old?

Watch out about offering to buy something. Sometimes they force you to go through with it.

Ask Elon.

Neither is solar or wind. But they’re all net-zero or near-zero carbon emissions when considering the entire lifestyle of the energy and machinery production.

I have an old desktop downclocked that pulls ~100W that I’m using as a file server, but I’m working on moving most of my services over to an Intel NUC that pulls ~15W. Nothing wrong with being power efficient.

If you have a laptop/something that runs off a battery, upower

Yeah, just tell her it’s the woke liberals tell her what she can and can’t do.

“I’ll make him humble”.

Lol. So bad ass.

I don’t wanna live in a world without scented bath oils, cheese biscuits, and gmail!

If you think Sundar is bad, just wait to see who Wall Street picks to replace him.

Salt and pepper fighting.

There are tons of tons, believe it or not.

There’s the short ton (2000lbs), long ton (2240 lbs), and tonne (1000kgs) which are all measure weight. However there’s also the shipping/freight/ocean ton which is a measure of volume (which is also different in the US and UK), and the register ton.

However I did make a mistake. The wikipedia page I was reading said the weight in t and long tons. I made the mistake of assuming they meant short tons - in reality when measuring displacement for a ship, tonnes are used (which is pretty sensible, considering you’re displacing water and a liter of water to a kilogram of water have a pretty easy conversion formula formula…)

You think that’s crazy? The ship that blocked the Suez Canal, the Ever Given, has a ship displacement (how much water is displaced when it sits in the ocean) of 265,000 Tons.

That’s 240 million kilograms.

And that shit just floats on fucking water maaaaan…

Electing Trump (Nov 2016) the first time was the American equivalent of Brexit (June 2016).

Didn’t think I’d ever see Waleska on Lemmy… but, yeah. This is just the story all over North Georgia right? No one wanted to live in the mountains until all of the sudden you could work from anywhere. Now everyone earning city and suburb pay is happy to live an hour farther out than they were before.

We just say bingo…
