The title is a bit misleading. They didn't hire an FBI agent. They hired a retired FBI agent. I feel that is a pretty crucial difference

Wait. The smoking age was raised to 21?? When tf did this happen?

Edit: it was the very end of 2019, right as COVID was getting started.

As a Texan, I can absolutely attest to this

Came to say this. That dub is hilarious.

Also Ghost in the Shell is my favorite.

What the system should do is if a detects an angry tone, it repeats the customers voice back to them with a slight delay. It is basically impossible to talk like that. It's like a bad phone call. Then once the person stops talking for a bit, it goes back to normal.... I now want to make this system.

I work with my hands so if my hands are covered in grease or dirt or whatever I wash my hands before taking a piss. I do wash my hands after as well.

I saw this and was very confused. I was thinking, "well mine just has two balls that unscrew from either end and pull it out" then I realized they're talking about a different ring for a cock

Machine maintenance / Macgyver. We make air filters and I have to make sure the machines that make them are running.

I also do any other random jobs. Currently I'm creating a simple webpage to submit machine issues that get sent to a Google sheet and an email sent out.

I also machine metal replacement parts. Of course I make any personal projects I want to as well.

This is why I use a trackball mouse when on the couch.

 

Hello, so I've been watching and enjoying this community. I remember watching various different seasons/generations as a child and I liked them. I'm sure there is a lot I missed and figured I need a new hyperfixation. As an adult I've only watched the original series when it was on Netflix. I remember a lot of Picard, and some with the woman captain. (Probably more, but I've done too many drugs between them and now)

So, as someone with a basic/broad understanding of Star Trek, where should I start my dive into this show?

 

Scenario: me killing time by doom scrolling lemmy. I see a post linking to a news article. The next 4 posts are the exact same post in the same community by the same user but on a different instance.

I understand the general mechanics behind lemmy so I know this is standard behavior. However, this can become quite tedious and annoying.

My suggestion: when the device pulls new posts if the same title, content, and user are detected, it combines them into one post. For comments, it creates a "root/parent comment" for each instance.

Up and down votes could be an issue though. My resolution to this would be when you press up/down vote a drop-down menu appears with "All" followed by all the different instances. I can think of lots of different mechanics for multi selections.

For the main feed, where the instance is normally stated, it states only the community followed by "multiple" or similar. When tapped, instead of taking you to that community on that instance, it has the equivalent of a help bubble pop up listing the instances so you could visit each one.

It would also be nice if something like this was possible for duplicate posts on the same instance across multiple communities.

 

I've found an issue that if I upvote a notification I can't tap the check to clear it. I have to refresh the notifications page to clear it. It may also be that the have to be checked off in order such as top to bottom or bottom to top. I'm not positive what's making it unclearable.

Audio override? (sh.itjust.works)

I commonly listen to audiobooks while browsing. I love that I'm seeing some embedded videos playing. Unfortunately, even though the sound is muted on the video, it auto pauses my audio book. Is there a way to stop that?
