I’ve had fans with motors burn out. I even had an industrial fan meant for warehouses eventually start smelling like burning when it ran. So I threw that out. I wasn’t about to keep let it running and risk it catching fire.

Maybe that kid was supposed to get shot instead of Harambe.

Your comment was so applicable to any of my comments that I assumed you were replying to the one where I said I wasn’t going to start wearing pants at work.

No no. I’m with you.

When life gives you lemons…uh…make linux memes and federate?

NO! I said months ago I hate this. I still hate this.

Ok, but I’m still not going back to wearing pants.

I think PS5 and its same gen xbox equivilant are at a point where they aren’t even utilising the power of the newer consoles anymore. If a game is possible to release on Nintendo Switch, AND PS5, that’s insane. The Switch is essentially a tablet from 2012. It was intentionally underpowered even at time of release.

Look at NES games from 1985. Now look at NES games from 1993. Same system. But they began utilising the system properly. They began pushing the system to the max.

I feel like modern consoles are holding back to accomodate the previous gen. This game is coming out for PS5 AND PS4 because nobody is buying PS5. So you gotta release it for PS4. So why even release a PS5 if you’re not going to advance it?

The women who he shared a locker room in the early 2000s trusted him enough to change in front of him. They all said he was more like a big brother, and protector rather than a predator the other men might have been.

When asked if Mick Foley ever groped her, Torrie Wilson said “One time he touched my arm…but thats as close as he ever got to touching any of us.”

And another time he wanted to make a big comeback to wrestling. He wanted to ride santas sleigh, from the top of the arena to the ring.

Vince McMahon rejected the idea for logistical reasons. Saying it was too hard to rig a safe way to carry an entire sled from up there.

Vince said “Even if I could find a sled capable of carrying your fat ass from the top of the arena, and even if Owen Hart hadn’t already died in a similiar stunt, Mick, do you realize it’s god damned March??? Nobody wants to see Santa in March!”

The thing that offended Foley the most was the idea of people not wanting to see Santa. Mick has a room in his house that’s always decorated in Christmas decorations, playing Christmas music. 365 days a year.

So I think you’re safe.

…wait, are one of those websites porn? Or are you forgetting about porn.

We’re at a point now where The Onion is LESS absurd than reality. Which one is more absurd:

A) Former president in an official televised debate claims immigrants are stealing and eating peoples pets?

Or

B) Former president warns of immigrants getting all the cool liscense plates.

One of these things actually happened, and if you were in a coma for the past two weeks, it may surprise you to learn which one were an absurdist satire website article, and which one is 100% real life factually happened.

Are we SURE the world didn’t actually end in 2012? It really feels like the matrix is glitching out.

I feel like every comment or joke I could possibly make is already obvious to everyone the second everyone read the story.

So instead I’m going to scream into this pillow, cry uncontrollably, and then punch these pancakes as I try to come to grips with how this situation will have zero real long lasting consequences for the cops responsible.

Ya know, I was going to downvote, until I saw the username. This is just on-brand for you!

Psssshhhhh!!! Faaaaaaaake!

Taylors cat is much fluffier, and doesn’t have hitler’s haircut.

Ah, so he has self hatred, and bad handwritting. I can relate.

I…can’t tell what is happening here. Is he having an orgasm? Is he supposed to be a priest, or a slave?

That tracks.

THIS is your big “You won’t believe what happened to me…” story???

sigh

When I was 14, I took the power cord for the original PS1 and shaved the rubber off the end until metal prongs were sticking out. Then I noticed if the outlet end was plugged in, and you touched the metal prongs on the other end, you couldn’t drop it. It would electricute you, but it would also stick to your skin for 5-10 seconds as it electricuted you.

So being a 14 year old male, I did the only logical thing. I put it on my penis.

It was quite shocking!

If “TomHanks” is his username on every other service, like twitter, and youtube, and tiktok, and instagram, then he would want to use it when he comes to the fediverse. Now, if only ONE person can have the username TomHanks (and it just so happens to be @Lemmy.World), then he could send a cease and disist letter, and if that doesn’t work, a lawsuit. Madonna did it in the 90s with Madonna.com.

However, if TomHanks@Lemmy.World can exist, and TomHanks@Lemm.ee can exist, and TomHanks@piefed.social can exist and…and…and…then it gets a little impossible for him to really own that username, because it can be duplicated on an infinate amount of instances, some that may not even exist when he shows up to the fediverse.

But if only one instance can have TomHanks, than he could absolutely show courts he’s had a vested interest and usership of that identity and thus that’s HIS username. Even on services he’s never signed up for. Like if he doesn’t have an instagram account at all, but someone else starts using TomHanks on instagram, he can take it to the courts that they are not allowed to do that, because that’s his username.

But the way the fediverse is currently set up right now, that’s not feasible. Because he could enter a court battle with TomHanks@Lemm.ee, and then 5 more instances with his username popup. And eventually it becomes harder and harder to prove that people know his ownership of that username if there’s 500 other people also using the same username. It’s the reason you can’t email celebrities. They can’t control their presence in email, so they don’t use that as their identity.
