definitely meant to comment on another post, super weird! I was reading a nottheonion post about how Steam was telling people not to huff the air coming out of the Steamdeck. Wonder if i hit a bug on the kbin mobile website? Hoping this reply actually goes to you and not some other post!

They should intentionally make it smell real bad to discourage people to do that, like how Nintendo made ds/3ds cartridges taste bad so little kids wouldn’t try and put them in their mouths

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•It's October - What's your paranormal experience?
191·2 years agoOne time I was on a road trip with some friends. One of my friend’s grandparents owned a small farm in northern Iowa. We stopped there for the night to take a break and rest up. At one point in the night I heard a spooky howling sound that woke me up. I looked out the window and the sky was glowing green and had a magical spookiness about it. I went outside to stare at it and came to the realization that the howling was wind moving between the grain silos and the sky was green because of solar wind interacting with the Earth’s magnetosphere. But there was a moment when I thought I was on a haunted farm

351·2 years agoI find it funny that they call the democrats “coastal elites” and then are so up in arms when the “coastal elites” try and make things less “elite”

That’s not how large democracies work, my friend. It’s not some dictatorship they can instantly move money around to solve problems with. In fact India spends WAYYYYYY more on welfare than it does on ISRO. It’s something like 2 billion USD to 250 billion USD. In fact the problem isn’t just money its how its distributed, corruption, etc. If the Indian government decided to defund ISRO and put that money to welfare, it would be a tiny drop in a massive bucket. Defunding ISRO would also have major ramifications on their aerospace industry, many thousands would be out of jobs, those with higher educations would leave the country to find opportunities. Have you looked at how India is doing with abject poverty in the past 20 years? The graphs are all trending down. Is it perfect? absolutely not. Every country could do something better, India has a lot of things it needs to work on. In my opinion, building up its own indigienous space industry is a net positive for India and is not taking money away from poor people.
What I’m getting at is it’s so easy to criticize a nation for their faults without looking at the complex socioeconomic and political issues at hand.

World News@lemmy.world•Two years under Taliban rule in Afghanistan: ‘I never thought the world would forget about us so quickly’
222·2 years agoPretty sure its extremely difficult to get out of Afghanistan, especially if you’re a woman. In fact I don’t think you can unless you’re accompanied by a man. I get what you’re saying but “getting out” is immensely dangerous

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?
1·3 years agoSamsung does produce the xcover series for construction/industrial use. I seriously considered one, the issue was it would have been a downgrade for me in CPU, display and doesn’t have dex

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?
4·3 years agoIf your work wants you to have mobile messaging/email then they should issue you a work device. I never put work stuff on my personal phone or computer. And I don’t put personal stuff on a work device. If I pay for a device I have full control of it.
Didn’t a lot of former members of the opera dev team go on to make Vivaldi? I really like Vivaldi but I always come back to my bae, Firefox
