My friend had one of these and it was really fun. Until he loaned it to me with the top down, and they were predicting heavy rain. It took me forever to figure out how to get the top back on. There were too many steps.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•At what point does a person become an "adult"?
2·10 days agoAccording to Ally Sheedy’s character in the Breakfast Club, it’s when your heart dies.
How do you even separate gender issues from class and power issues?

3·2 months agoFind an asian market near you. The ramen is so cheap there and it’s way better than the ones in the supermarket.

People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Avocado toast is out. Rotisserie chicken is in.
4·2 months agoThis is the way.
Just a few practical tips for those of you wanting to do this, but feel a bit nervous about dealing with the chicken carcass. Disposable gloves are your friend. Pull off every bit of meat you can possibly pull off. It can be frozen and then used for pretty much anything. You can throw it in tacos. You can put it in ramen soup.You can just eat it. You can share it with your dog or cat, if you can afford one.
If you have an Instant Pot cooker, I have the small three quart sized one, it makes it really easy and quick to simmer the carcass and get all that delicious bone broth. The bone broth can also be used for anything savory you’re making that requires water like rice, instant stuffing, Ramen, couscous. You get the idea.

3·2 months agoThe film, Triangle of Sadness, presents what could go horribly wrong when you take the customer is always right too seriously. It’s both comical and profoundly disturbing.
I can smell earthworms when it rains. It’s gross.
Hilarious. Just needs the Shout spell.

PlayStation@lemmy.zip•Sony is Quietly Suggesting PS4 Players Upgrade to PS5 Consoles
1·3 months agoI don’t know much about it, but people online have been talking a lot about how expensive it is now to buy memory. They were saying that it’s so expensive that doing pc gaming wasn’t really going to be possible until the prices came down. Is this not the case?

PlayStation@lemmy.zip•Sony is Quietly Suggesting PS4 Players Upgrade to PS5 Consoles
7·3 months agoIf they’re so desperate to get people to switch, why don’t they sweeten the deal? The PS5 console is still too expensive. It’s ridiculously expensive for an older console. They could at least include an extra controller or other accessories.
Instead, like every other evil corporation, they’re about to use the stick on us by making things worse to try to coerce us into buying something a lot of us can’t afford.
Me: Is there milk?
AI: You’re absolutely right to ask if there is milk, you’re not crazy, you’re not paranoid.
Me: Why did you bring up crazy and paranoid? I’m just asking if there’s milk.
AI: I’m using a psychological manipulation technique called presupposition.
Presupposition refers to the underlying assumptions that must be accepted for a statement to make sense. It operates subtly, influencing how people interpret information without their conscious awareness. For example, saying, “I know you’re busy, but can you help me?” presupposes that the listener is indeed busy.
Presuppositions are powerful tools in persuasive communication. They shape the listener’s thought process, guiding them to conclusions without direct assertions. This technique is often used in advertising and political discourse, where implicit messages can be more effective than explicit statements.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some red flags when it comes to renting in an apartment?
8·3 months agoDon’t let them bait and switch you with an apartment.They might show you an apartment that’s in really good shape and act like that’s the one you’re gonna get, and then they give you a different one that is not in good shape, so make sure that the apartment you’re looking at is the exact apartment that you’ll be getting.
Also, don’t skip this one, talk to the neighbors. I know it’s awkward and you’re not going to want to do it, but it’s really the best way to get information. They will tell you how things actually are.

News@lemmy.world•U.S. citizen says ICE removed him from his Minnesota home in his underwear after warrantless search
34·3 months agoDid anybody call the St Paul police? Were the police already there on site? What is happening to residents when they call the emergency number? Are the dispatchers telling them what to do? This is missing from the news story. Why isn’t npr asking these questions? Where are the police?
Why are the police in Minnesota, in this case St. Paul, why are they not doing anything? Couldn’t they at least require ICE to produce a warrant, and if the police would put themselves in between ice and these innocent people and ice had to arrest or tried to arrest the Minnesota police that would totally change the game, wouldn’t it?
Could you imagine how insane that story would be? It would make the trump administration look really awful to have to justify police officers being arrested by ICE. There’s never been a better opportunity for the police to rehabilitate their public image.
At the very least, the police could be there recording what’s going on. In this particular case, they could have documented how ice took this guy out to the middle of nowhere and were taking his photos.
Ice would be behaving very differently if the police would get involved and be willing to get arrested, that would be the hero cop. The police unions would get involved and it would totally change the game.
If just one good, hero cop put himself or herself in between ice and an innocent American citizen that police officer would become famous, and they would be known and written about in the history books for bringing America back from the brink of totalitarianism.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK the four rules of firearm safety
8·3 months agoI really wish trigger discipline was a public service announcement. You know those commercials they used to put on the tv all the time about stop, drop, and roll for fire safety. I wish there was one for trigger discipline.
If you practice trigger discipline, it takes care of most the other rules. In a high stress or excitable situation, if you go into fight or flight mode, the first thing you do is make a fist without even realizing it. You don’t want your finger to be hovering over the trigger when this happens.
I wonder how many lives would be saved if this was repeated enough to be made common knowledge.

PlayStation@lemmy.world•'Around Half of Oblivion Remastered Players on PS5 Played For Less Than 15 Hours': Nostalgia Is Powerful, But Only So MuchEnglish
2·3 months agoI don’t think I could have lasted even that long with the Remaster, because from what I’ve seen from clips I’ve watched, it’s ugly. It’s not beautiful like the original game. The characters are really, really creepy looking; I hate the way they look.The original 2006 version is like playing a painting that’s come to life.
The only thing I like about the Remaster is that it inspired me to start a new game of the old original Oblivion. I’m going on three weeks now. And every time I turn it back on, I love it.
Long live the original Oblivion.
Okay. I’ve never heard of somebody only drinking one caffeine drink a day. I feel like if that’s all you’re drinking it’s such a low amount of caffeine you probably don’t even need to quit.
Most people drink a lot of caffeine a day, and for some, every single drink they have has some caffeine in it. Those are the people that might need to cut back or quit or cut down to one caffeinated drink per day, which would be a good goal too.
I know this is a joke, but just wanted to let people know that you can wean yourself off caffeine slowly and have absolutely no headaches.
Start by replacing one caffeine drink per day with one decaffeinated drink. Stay with that for a couple of days and then just keep increasing it to 2 then 3. Stay with that for a couple days and then get up to the point where you’ve replaced half of your caffeine with non caffeinated and stay with that for maybe a couple days or a week.
You have to go really slow and then you just get to the point where you’re only having one caffeine drink a day. And you’ll never get a headache, but it takes like weeks, literally weeks to do it, but it’s worth it to have no headaches and really no lack of energy.
Hint:
Some of those that work forces Are the same that burn crosses






Whenever Rogan has a guest on that I think will surely push back on what Rogan is and has been doing in regards to Trump, I watch it just to see if they will say anything. And I’m disappointed every time. I thought for sure, when I saw Bill Murray was on with Joe Rogan, I thought for sure that Bill Murray was gonna push back, and he didn’t at all. I naively thought that someone like Bill Murray might be able to get Rogan to see reason.
And then recently David Cross was on Rogan’s show, and David Cross is really funny, and I like him. He’s super political and he didn’t push back at all. Not even a little bit, it was like, what’s happening!? I mean, I don’t want to give David Cross a hard time about it, but it’s like, why did you go on his show? And then not even say anything about how Rogan has conducted himself with Trump.
