I don't know the specifics if pixelfed users can post to Lemmy, but Lemmy generally doesn't support following users from, say, mastodon. They can post here and follow communities from here into their feed if they format it right but we can't view their feeds only their posts to communities and replies. That's what kbin was trying to accomplish.

Understand that you're not really logging in with mastodon but importing account information and followers from a mastodon to create a new account on the instance. There's no single sign on for activity pub.

A failed meme is still a meme.

That's my type of gravy boat.

Hey. Do I look like I've got funny balls to you?

Sure but if you're using anything but carbs and fats to power exercise you're doing it wrong.

That's nowhere near $240 worth of pudding. Give me about 60 gallons of milk, a pile of cornstarch, some sugar, and some vanilla extract and I'll make you over 8 cubic feet/220 liters of pudding. You'd drown.

Edit: I did the math and I could comfortably make over 50 gallons on pudding on that budget even with maltodextrin and modified corn starch, no heat just mixing.

The only important carbon part is the carbon used in transporting and growing the food in the form of fuel. We're not releasing trapped carbon when we're eating food as the only way we would save carbon in that situation is if we grew the food and buried it. Worrying about raw energy efficiency gets nonsensical because soon you'll be factoring in the solar energy conversion efficiency between growing and eating plants vs growing and burying plants to turn them into oil.

The better point is just that a bicycle is an incredibly efficient machine for moving a person in terms of energy input to work done compared to the hunks of metal cars are.

where laws work more strictly

That's never been the case. If anything we've been a major source of corruption on the world and particularly for South America for the last 150-200 years. Shit you could easily frame the Cuban revolution and the reaction to American corrupt interests and draw a straight line from drug cartels and bribing coups as well.

Hey, it's perfectly possible to create a catastrophic test environment. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_1

 

Israel's government approved a plan on Sunday to expand Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights, saying it had acted "in light of the war and the new front facing Syria" and out of a desire to double the Israeli population on the Golan.

Catchy ass satirical song about a self centered guy upset his ex girlfriend had an abortion without his input. Sloppy seconds really were geniuses at writing lyrics for a joke band.

So you were late
But you never told me you were
You didn't want to say
Till you were sure
But that song and dance
Won't work no more
Because you got no rhythm
To save your soul

I don't care how much it hurts
So you can tell it
To the Roman Catholic Church
I don't run away
From my mistakes
But this is one, honey,
That I didn't make

And I can't catch you
And I can't get you
But I can't let you catch me

Oh no, you can't catch me
And you never will
So you can plant black roses
In your window sill
I'll be free
And you'll be suicidal
While you press black roses
In your family Bible

So now it's all
Left up to your discretion
And you can spill your guts
In your next confession
Lift your eyes up to the sky
Give 'em ten Hail Marys
For one white lie

Your mother always said
I would bring you down
If she could only see you now
Clinging tight to your rosary
Saying, "This wasn't how
It was supposed to be . . ."

Forget about a snow-white
Wedding gown
And you can toss black roses
In a hole in the ground

Roses are red, roses are black
Tell your mother what you did
And give her a heart attack

Someday when I'm cold and dead
You're gonna find black roses
By your hospital bed

 

A center-left group in the U.S. sees a valuable lesson in the landslide victory of Britain’s Labour Party after nearly 15 years in the political wilderness.

The centrist Democrat think tank Third Way argues in a memo obtained Friday by POLITICO that Labour’s sweeping win shows that “centrism wins elections” and can undercut right-wing populism by appealing to the broadest segment of the population with a credible platform.

 

Warping is throwing an anchor either manually for a small ship or by rowing the anchor out and dropping it farther away for a larger ship. Then the ship would reel it to change position. Good for maneuvering in harbor. Etymologically related to "throwing" and essentially threading a needle across the sea.

Warp factor get you asses in the rowboat. Engage.

 

For the first time since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, the party did not secure a majority on its own in 2024 national election. But the prime minister’s coalition is still expected to run the country for another five years.

Modi’s allies generally support pro-Hindu legislation, but making new policies could be complicated by coalition politics and a slimmer majority.

Despite a setback, many of the Hindu nationalist policies he’s instituted over the last 10 years remain locked in place

 

Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like "what is Congress" with a push notification is not the best plan

 

President Biden told a Democratic lawmaker and members of his Cabinet after the State of the Union address that he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that they will need to have a “come-to-Jesus meeting.”

Biden’s comments, captured on a hot mic as he spoke with Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) on the floor of the House chamber, came after Bennet congratulated the commander in chief on his speech and pressed him to keep pressure on Netanyahu over increasing humanitarian issues in Gaza.
