All social media that came after IRC should die. \s
I don't trust people with fire-proof tents.
As a physicist, this is correct if I is sufficiently large
Poland and Hungary also did fairly well, if I'm not mistaken
Wait, is that still a thing? I've never seen cops with speed cameras outside of movies. It also seems quite overkill seeing there's mobile speed cameras too these days. Around my city there's like three that get moved every few days, alongside the many stationary speed cameras.
Perhaps stay clear of people called Saint ... Necrophilia is frowned upon.
Or so his supporters can say that he didn't lose due only to his own incompetence.
Yeah, the weekly sacrifices I have to do, are taking a toll on me
Cyrillic seems really difficult with all the vowel shifts, English doesn't even make sense in its own alphabet. Something like "Ай эм де лорд, дай год." then?
Can confirm, I'm ginger.
I really don't get how Heineken became such a big brand. It's the shittiest pils I've ever drunk, and I've drunk Cara Pils.
These large companies really need to learn that AI isn't a good tool for black and white decisions.
Right now I'm working on a system with drones and image recognition for farmers to prioritise where to use pesticides, in order to decrease the use of pesticides in the EU. For these things AI systems work really well, since it's just prioritising regions.
It's a bad idea to use it to make discrete decisions.
The first time I've ever been ID'ed was for a beer on a festival when I was 19, we're allowed to buy beer at 16, I was pleasantly surprised. I've also been smoking since I was 14, which was back then allowed from 16 (now 18), and I've never been ID'ed for buying tobacco or rolling papers.
The price of bread has always been a good indicator for unrest, and it's rising quickly.
No, Mexican food isn't very prevalent here. I've only ever had genuine tacos in a Mexican restaurant on holiday in Dublin.
I understand your concerns. With our machines the QR codes can be forged, but manual recounts are done using the human readable votes on the receipts, which you have to check before leaving the voting booth and dropping the receipt in the ballot box.
Also, we have opkomstplicht (compulsory attendance), although research shows that our votes wouldn't change a lot if voting were voluntary. We also always vote on Sundays.
EDIT: Also, about 1 million people (around 10%) didn't show up to vote, despite the possibility of getting a heavy fine. Not sure how this influenced the result.
Are hard tacos actually nice to eat? Whenever I see them in movies and such, it seems like the tortilla would just shatter the moment you bite into it.
I've got three accounts on different instances. When I switch accounts, it sometimes removes an account from the thingy on the left. I think it's related with the servers updating to a new version of Lemmy, but I'm not sure.
I'll preface this by saying that English is not my mother language and I'm sorry if this isn't the right community, but I didn't find a more appropriate one.
Last year I started to notice more and more people on YouTube for example using the verb "to put" without a preposition -- like "Now I put the cheese" -- which sounds very weird and kind of feels wrong to me. Is this really used in spoken English and is it grammatically correct?
