Pulling up to a light that was changing from yellow to red, when a crappy blue hatchback zoomed past me and the car in front of me in the next lane over, through the just-turned-red light. Local cop was first in line at the cross street and pulled out with the lights going. Saw the guy pulled over about a quarter mile down the road. Waved cheerfully.

Pilot G2 pens. Not expensive and write well, use them at work and not be too upset if s customer walks off with one.

SAS shoes. Made in Texas, hella comfortable. You can’t buy them online, you have to go to a shoe store and get properly fitted. They also fit the saying about not skimping on things that come between you and the ground.

No experience with Ryanair specifically, but airlines do oversell their flights. That said, if you check in as soon as you are able, right at 24 hours before, you should be ok. The people who run into trouble are the ones who wait to check in until they get to the airport.

She was petted shortly after, trust me. One ignores Emily at their peril!

Sleep Number mattress. Yes it’s gimmicky and expensive, but the ability to adjust softness/firmness according to how my back feels is priceless

iPad. A long time ago when I was an IT drone the boss dropped a 1st gen on our desks and said, “set it up and figure it out, you’ll be supporting it.” 2 weeks later I told my husband he was off the hook for Christmas, I wanted one of these. It’s been my most used entertainment tech since through multiple generations

I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sure she knew she was loved

Just say you’ll be at home avoiding all the noise. I’m saying that and I was born in the U.S.

Hobbes is adorable!

I hope that comes through as a link. My late husband wore a 10.5 EEEEEE and got most of his shoes there. Once you set up with them you can just order what fits

Aye

Agree. Defederate

I vote to defederate. The bot swarm by itself would be enough, but the inability of individual users to block instances means that those of us who do not want to see their garbage do not have another realistic option. If Lemmy ever gives user instance-blocking, then I would reserve defederation to botting and to illegal content and allow people to choose who to associate with on their own.

Aye But with human review
