I once went through 8 or so rounds of picking busses…

Source: Look at which instance I’m on.

Yeah, I only made the switch 3 months ago for this reason. I don’t see how it is hilarious either.

Well, it does sound like you just read the headlines…

Yeah, it is nearly impossible to dismantle a belief system like this. Just like it is with extreme (both left and right) political beliefs.

Gregor Clegane definitely isn’t.

Tasteless

I haven’t heard that report, but I’d guess it’s the Russians that are reporting that. Now why would they have an incentive to say that? ;)

The US and Turkey support different factions in the Syrian civil war. This video from Real Life Lore goes in depth with Turkey’s position in NATO, and IIRC it does mention about Syria:

A U.S. F-16 fighter jet shot down an armed Turkish drone that was operating near American troops in Syria Thursday after several warnings, according to U.S. officials.

The shootdown came after repeated communications to stay away from U.S. ground troops near al Hasakah, in northeastern Syria.

I have a blu-ray drive that I use once or twice a year to rip a movie. 5 years or so ago I was the weirdo that has both a blu-ray and dvd drive in my computer, as I was ripping my entire movie library.

Speaking of things that are much less funny… Spquarespace!

I try to say it when I have something to say though. I didn’t always bother on Reddit.

In Danish, “bor” only refers the drill bit. If you asked someone “kan du række mig boret” you would be handed the drill bit, or possibly be pointed towards the table (bord/bordet, with silent d).

In denmark we call it a “boremaskine”, literally “drilling machine”…

Well, not quite…

You will have to use some translation to read the article though.

Definitely Lego Star Wars (original trilogy of course). My brother and I played it almost endlessly on our PS2 when we were children. Later on we got it on both PS3 and 4, and I even bought it in steam a few years ago for the nostalgia. On the computer I naturally use my PS4 controller for it.

Pixel 6 with Firefox. I use the default os, as the Danish ID isn’t supported on rooted devices, and you pretty much need it for everything.

My 2 favs are: !dadjokes@lemmy.world or !unclejokes@lemmy.world (it’s like a nsfw dad jokes sub). Check them out, it’s goofy humor.
