Wow, looked it up just now; apparently the US is only #15, after a bunch of Pacific islands, and a couple others

Stupid people think they're both caused solely by laziness

If it's all a truly random selection, which I believe it was, then half of all people would cease to exist, leaving half of their gut biomes behind, still alive (albeit briefly). I guess the end result would be the snapped people leaving behind a mist of gross intestinal bacteria which would itself mostly die out without a host. Meaning much more than half of all gut biome bacteria would be killed as a result.

Of course it would make more sense to consider a person and their gut flora as one being, but the joke is about how stupid the initial conception of Thanos' plan is, not creating an academically rigorous argument.

Yeah, I guess in their minds it's preferable to entirely exterminate a local population than to assimilate with them

For conversation about various subjects with broad appeal and a left wing slant, sure.

For tech support or info on niche topics, not at all. Lemmy is not big enough, old enough, or easily indexed by search engines.

The porn is also pretty mid tbh

I'm from GA, and I never understood people calling all soda a coke. Giving someone a Pepsi when they asked for a coke is enough to start an altercation around here -- they are not at all considered interchangeable

You're not going to hear from men who actually do this because they don't have a good reason and aren't typically comfortable with the kind of introspection the question demands.

Some people are exclusionary pricks who look for excuses to judge others. They don't have or need a reason. It's bullying.

Didn't say they were. But the pixel 9 undeniably looks more like an iPhone than previous pixels.

Frankly, I haven't seen anything I would call innovation from any manufacturer in the smartphone industry in years. Just the occasional parlor trick. The industry is continuing its slow crawl towards more and more similar devices.

And I'm writing this from a pixel 8, for whatever that's worth.

I won't lose any sleep over it. Thinking about spraypainting trump on some old pallet wood and selling them on etsy as 'patriot planks' for $150 a piece.

I see copying Apple's homework continues to be a lucrative, if boring and dystopian, strategy for phone manufacturers

Fwiw, I don't think the knife is directly affiliated with Trump; I think they just bought the ad space. I could be wrong though.

Also, that's not a combat knife. Thats a cheap no-name pocket knife.

Aaaaaand this pales in comparison to all the firearms you can find with Trump's face engraved on them.
