Is the joke that elephants are afraid of mice?

I don't get it

I agree with this sentiment but I don't see it actually convincing anyone of the dangers of AI. It reminds me a lot of how teachers said that calculators won't always be available and we need to learn how to do mental math. That didn't convince anyone then

Maybe I'm eating and would rather keep my hands free. Or doing anything where'd I'd like to keep my hands free

I'm one of those people ... I always thought, if it's reasonable to have a conversation with someone physically there, at a reasonable talking volume, why does it matter if I'm doing the same on my phone?

Obviously if it's obnoxiously loud that's a different story

What do you consider "the basics"? I regards to getting a 12 yr old started on Linux

Was really exciting seeing ferrari move up through the field towards the top 3. If that safety car hadn't been called, ferrari could've gone for soft tires and put pressure to get both drivers on the podium

Hopefully ferrari improves on this and keeps the momentum going

That would've been a huge risk, earlier this race you saw that the mediums only lasted about 17 laps, and they had almost 24 to go if they chose soft. It's honestly amazing Russel was able to keep the soft from degrading for the rest of the race, but it was a huge risk and probably a bit of luck. Even Russel said it was ambitious

Definitely this one. Simple design and the fine point is so smooth to write with

You can reinstall a driver without ever touching the command line on windows.

Can you do that with Linux? Idk maybe on some distros but the default would just be to uninstall the package from terminal.

Pretending these are equivalent is not cool and it just drives new users away for not understanding things the community takes for granted. It takes effort to learn the terminal if even tech-savvy windows users may not even use the command line

 

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for ideas for a non-processed meat that goes well with breakfast. In the past, I had bacon, eggs, and maybe some oats or a salad. I cut the traditional bacon, and now have either beans or turkey bacon as my "breakfast meat". But, turkey bacon is still really high in sodium (and is a processed meat) and beans just don't satisfy that meat craving sometimes. And substituting a different meat has been kinda hard; chicken breast, while unprocessed, just doesn't go well with breakfast.

So, I just wanted to know what other people do for breakfast, if they struggle with this dilemna, and any feedback the community has.

Thanks!

 

This question was inspired by a post on lemmy.zip about lowering the minimum age to purchase firearms in the US, and a lot of commeters brought up military service and training as a benchmark to normal civilians, and how if guns would be prevalent, then firearm training should be more common.

For reference, I live in the USA, where the minimum age to join the military is 18, but joining is, for the most part, optional. I also know some friends that have gone through the military, mostly for college benefits, and it has really messed them up. However, I have also met some friends from south korea, where I understand military service is mandatory before starting a more normal career. From what I've heard, military service was treated more as a trade school, because they were never deployed, in comparison to American troops.

I just wanted to know what the broader Lemmy community thought about mandatory military service is, especially from viewpoints outside the US.

 

If Kamala and trump both tie the electoral college, which it is looking like a possibility, a new president would be chosen by the new Congress on Jan 6th. Scary to think about

Howdy! I am planning to move to the southeast part of Michigan around this new years. I am excited to get out of my state and see what other parts of the USA have to offer. But one thing that really worries me, and that I wanted to reach out about, is the winters in the north.

I'm moving from Texas, so for the most part, snow or ice is rare, and it usually meant the whole city shut down for a few days if it happened that year. And now I need to coordinate a moving truck up to Michigan, which from what I know, snow is to be expected? Do y'all have any tips for dealing with this?

I'll also be moving into a suburb area, is there anything I need to know about that? I've heard shoveling snow is kinda important, is that true? How often do you need to shovel snow?

Thanks y'all

 

Hello everyone! I wanted to start meal prepping this month for lunch. I'm trying to cut down on my sodium, and I found my deli sandwiches are a big source of that. This weekend I'll be trying to make a sandwich from shredded chicken. At the moment I'll be using this recipe: https://livesimply.me/prep-day-how-to-make-easy-crock-pot-shredded-chicken-using-a-whole-chicken/

If anyone has any meal prep ideas for lunch, please share! I am tired of cooking everyday, I want thr convenience of a quick microwave meal without all the salt and extra stuff.
