It might be everyone's "tribe" if it's Ötzi's. I'm not a big fan of that term. https://www.si.edu/stories/ancient-ink-iceman-otzi-has-worlds-oldest-tattoos

Why can't we go back to small phones? in c/technology

I agree. I just worked there when I was younger. I no longer work there.

They do, but service providers don't like selling them. There isn't as much of a return on smaller/ dumb/ cheap phones. I used to work at spectrum, and we'd speak of the cheap phones in hushed tones like they were the boogeyman. It felt horrible because I was using my cheap android while selling people iPhone 15s.

Also, apparently, people thought she had a mouth on her hand because the word for "kiss" in Japanese includes the character for "mouth," In reality, you're supposed to kiss her hand.

I learned about this from Zullie the Witch on youtube: https://youtu.be/PCwZ2AzWD-Y?si=b3E8KuipqaF-qb4y

Why Christian Bale? It should be a guy who tried to trim his beard but gave up. Also, I'm a bit of a barber.

Hey, now. He only brought a plucked chicken carcass to forum once. Also, I'll have you know his natural musk was RENOWNED throughout the location near his barrel or whatever. Pot? He's a homeless dude who wrote shit down and showed up to public meetings. I still like him. He's definitely one of those characters that's better to read about than meet.

What if you stored the data in an unregulated country? Check out their career page.

Why wouldn't they? Especially after the lasafare opinions expressed by their CEO.

Fair. I haven't played "No Man's Sky," yet, but apparently, it's awesome in VR.

Recently, the Daily show has felt a bit self defeatist, but this episode was on fire!

How can I Legally Mess with ICE? [FALLBROOK: SIDE OF THE 395 ON RAINBOW GLEN, ~~ACTIVE~~ ICE RAID] (self.asklemmy)

submitted 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) by Xanthrax to c/[email protected]

I'm a farmer in San Diego County. In fallbrook/ temecula, there's a truck weigh station that's full of ICE operatives near me. Today, they blocked off the entrance to the only road that leads to a bunch of farms, including mine. I personally have a family farm, but I know my neighbors and their employees, and they're hard-working everyday people regardless of their immigration status.

To make a long story short, how do I legally fuck with ICE while they do a raid?

Edit: the only thing I can think of is recording and doing a verbal protest. I could try to share the footage with the local news. Given the current political climate, I'm not sure if they'd care. I don't want to see the people I've existed next to dissappear.

It's here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/MbUzWLDT73swafxf7?g_st=ac

If you know someone who works at Moon Farm Nurseries, fucking tell them RIGHT NOW to lay low. They're compromised.

Edit 2: they took everyone. The fields up and down our road are empty. I couldn't even get a picture because I had to drive past like nothing was happening. Fuck.

Edit 3: a couple of truckers pulled up with double wides and blocked the road. I can't tell whoes side their on. Whish me luck.

Edit 4: I think mite have made a checkpoint for me. I think I'll be fine, but I'm not sure. Live update.

Edit 5: I'm fine, one of the people in the double wide got taken too. Fuck this day. I hope everyone is doing okay.

I got my finger stuck in a door (lemmy.world)

I added wooden planks to my chicken run's door frame, so mice couldn't get through the gap. Today, I closed my pinky between the door/ pole, chicken wire, and a rough board. The family member that came out to help, brought a drill and revved it a few times. I freaked out and used a marshmallow stick to undo the latch. Also, this is a temporary enclosure for a sick bird.

This is by the same Channel that made SCP: Overlord. They had a nearly successful Kickstarter and transferred the funds to this film. So, a lot of us have been excited for this for a while.

How are you guys enjoying the new content? (self.2007scape)

I'm about to finish the new main quest. Just got smacked by someone "cold". I love these quests, the island, the colours. I was already loving perilous moons as well. I hadn't played in a while, and these were perfect additions to help jump back in. I'm also super excited about regen potions. I don't have my cheese cape, so hopefully, the regen will help with switches at the end!

Can anyone identify/ explain this UAV blowing up in a YT short? (youtube.com)

submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by Xanthrax to c/videos

Sorry for using YT shorts. That was just the original source.

I've never seen a situation like this before. The UAV looks like an RQ-21, but why is it blowing up over a lake in the US? The poster has shared no editional information but seems legit based on their posting history. Does anyone have any explanations?
