I’ve been a part of turning several conservatives since 2016 but as of 2024, and under far more convincing circumstances, I haven’t seen one turn. I’m glad others have faith, and I’ve seen some online change, but every single one in my sample is entrenched more than ever. Here’s hoping they’re just the most stubborn or immune to reality

Vital Proteins got bought out by Nestle and almost immediately turned to shit iirc

Yeah I did this way back with a different back exercise, rope pulldown. I had been taught the right way, slowly messed it up, then abruptly realized one day when someone pointed out that my arms were bent. Fixed my form and immediately injured myself because I did not consider that, without my arms, I should be doing a lower weight.

Thank you anyway

Hello, hope you do not mind additional questions.

If I block an instance on PieFed, do their votes count?

Darn, I was just hoping you would. I didn’t see any of the trailers or anything but heard that was the case. Stuff about NPC AI? Did cops used to just spawn in the vicinity of the player?

Honestly I was never really curious about the game until this thread, but I don’t have the requisite foundation to know what needed to be fixed. I’m sure I’ll find out eventually

If you don’t mind, does it now match the advertising? I heard there were trailers with advanced features that were not in the actual game on release.

That song gives me a physical revulsion every time I hear it. It’s more than just disliking a song. This is something that tries to pretend it’s a song, but ultimately isn’t. It’s unsettling. Like if a monkey skinned a person and dressed in that skin and carried on as if it were a person.

My Pal Foot Foot is a monkey wearing a human skin-suit and trying to be a human.

From an old reddit comment about this song. I don’t think it’s that bad, but maybe time has made it grow on me.

I got my original ones from this unethical company that put them in tiny sealed enclosures. Well, from a gift shop that was selling them. When I realized how unethical it was later that day, I made a quick plan to break them out.

I’d recommend getting them from good breeders. There’s an eBay seller GotSnails who was, when I left reddit, a large contributor. Messaging him on Reddit was cheaper than the eBay store back then since he’ll just send an invoice. There’s also the supershrimp store.

They do breed in tank conditions! My original ones bred after the breakout. It can take a lot of time and some work making sure your conditions are good, but mine didn’t require anything.

All I did was get:

• a tank (well, a jar)
• some algae from supershrimp store. They don’t eat this algae but they eat what grows on it.
• some calcium carbonate pebbles which they need to molt successfully
• substrate for visual variety
• some rocks for them to hide in
• a test kit. Most don’t do this and it’s alright. I was just paranoid. It ended up being totally unnecessary in my case.

They’re a lot of fun and I highly recommend it. Feel free to respond if you have more questions or want specific links to what I’d do if I was starting afresh. You can choose from any ethical seller though.

Oh, I have shrimp. Mine are near zero care opae ula; I top off the tank with distilled water occasionally but that’s it. Well, and I have them on a light cycle so the algae grows.

Still, if anyone is interested or feels like shrimp would improve their lives, feel free to respond and I can help set up a new tank. Mine are truly near zero maintenance though so I don’t know if it would be a profound life change like OP’s.

What? A Model 3 starts at 42k (without the tax credit) or 299/mo for a lease. That’s below average for new cars in America, or significantly below average if you qualify for the tax credit. KBB says the average for a new car in December 2024 was nearly 50k.

And sure, not everyone can afford a new car, but very few Tesla buyers are “that kind of income” wealthy.

One thing I really like about the Lucid Air is that the big screen retracts. Makes it look and feel quite different, almost like an older car without the big screen.

Important controls like seats, temperature, and volume/pause are physical. So you can have the big screen when you want it, and it goes away when you don’t. More cars should do that, though the additional moving part probably isn’t great for longevity.

Yeah like. I want a large community and stuff but. The idea of a new Reddit preferring community is weirdly repellent.

I really don’t want to hate on their preferences but also holy shit.

Very few reasons to get a Tesla when Lucid exists. I can think of three good ones— price, software reliability, and concerns about the company’s health— but these aren’t enough to overcome the icky feeling of funding Musk and his aspirations for me.

I don’t get why anyone would stay on a site they thought reason wasn’t allowed at.

I’ve been frustrated several times at what I perceive as Lemmy bias that borders extremism, but on the whole it’s perfectly reasonable. Essentially every response to the parent comment agreed with it (I have yet to see someone disagree but perhaps I haven’t scrolled enough).

Lemmy isn’t big enough to feel you need to stay, as Reddit was when comments like this were plentiful.

Hell yeah brother, keep it up. You’ll hit other phenomenal milestones but this one will probably stay most satisfying for a long time

HDMI 2.2 will be released in the first half of this year and be widely available “to all HDMI 2.x adopters.” Your TV and external devices will need to support the specification

Will this solve eARC sync issues on existing devices that support 2.1? Like I could just get a new cable and it would work?

My thinking was it wasn’t enough weight. I’ll watch the video soon and see though, if it works for that guy it should work for me

Yeah, I’ve swapped out most exercises for wrist friendly ones. It’s just, I have to do a lot of decline ring push ups to make up for losing every bench press movement and I fuckin hate those. Sadly they’re the only chest workout we can figure that keep the wrists in a neutral grip.

Slowly, more exercises are returning, but the ones I want back most will be the last to come. This is easily the injury I regret most, I truly hope none of you ever get it.

Right, relevance, posted this here cause it’s hugely affected my workout routine. All bench movements are out and I’ve had to throw in calisthenics. Which is fine, but I’d kill for my wrist to fully recover
