Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that people in Los Angeles live completely surrounded by trafficEnglish
66·3 days agoMany moons ago, I lived about 20 feet from a Union Pacific railroad track. Gotta give credit to the engineers. They really tried to quietly sneak by every morning at 2:00 AM. As quietly as you can sneak a freight train anyways.
I kind of wonder if that’s a better or worse experience than living right next to a major highway.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Grumpy Trump Sues Poll Because His Popularity Is PlummetingEnglish
5·6 days agoOn one hand, I’m genuinely curious to see how the JP Morgan suit pans out. They have vast financial resources, an army of lawyers, and unlike some of the other defendents in Trump’s recent lawsuits, a potentially dangerous precedent to be set by settling.
On the other hand, they’re both scum and they deserve each other.

621·6 days agoPresbyterians don’t have canonized saints but if they did, The Reverend Fred Rogers would almost certainly be #1 on the list. He believed in the importance of teaching kids to love their neighbors and themselves. And he found an incredibly effective way to do it that basically no one else has been able to match.
Too bad Meghan McCain was apparently watching Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood on mute the entire time.

136·6 days agoThe officials said Flores appeared at an immigration hearing on December 16, where he represented himself, and admitted to the allegations against him then requested voluntary departure.
If a bunch of morons offer you a get out of jail free card and a one way ticket to freedomville, you take it.
The prosecutors added they “remain eager to prosecute defendant for his crimes and vindicate his victims” if he returns to the country.
That dude won the jackpot, cashed in his chips, walked out the front door, and he is never coming back.
This whole story couldn’t be more ridiculous if it were a Looney Toon’s episode.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the hardest days work you've had?
15·6 days agoThat’s a tough call. I would say the hardest was when I was on the board of a regional charity organization and we caught the CEO embezzling. If you’ve never dealt with something like that before, it’s hard to imagine the river of shit that is coming your way.
This dude, who was paid a decent salary and benefits, very smugly told us that he felt he was more entitled to the money than the people who actually needed it. I’ve never wanted to punch anyone so badly. Firing him was the easy part. Dealing with the criminal investigation and the loss of community trust was the hard part. That was more of an emotionally exhausting year and a half rather than just a day though.

“This would be a real banger if we mixed in a synthesizer and some orchestral music.” --Jeff Lynne (Probably)
He may not have actually said that but he certainly thought it and he was not wrong.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK the four rules of firearm safety
11·9 days agoYou would “clear it” by “opening” the action. A firearm cannot be fired with the action open. What that looks like depends on the type of action.
Edit: It’s a good firearm safety protocol to open the action before handing a weapon to someone. Always, always, always assume that it’s loaded.

ADHD@lemmy.world•Do you wish you hadn't gotten officially diagnosed ?English
14·9 days agoYou’re over thinking this. Neither health insurance companies nor any employer that isn’t a complete pile of shit cares if you have ADHD. The only time an employer has even had an official record that I have it is when they have mandatory drug testing and mine comes back positive for amphetamines. If they ask about it at all, usually “I take Vyvanse for ADHD” ends the conversation and it never comes up again.
Do what’s best for your health and well being.
That’s pretty much my littlest one. He got forced out into the world and he’s been pissed about it ever since.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 January 2026 Update Issues, Releases FixesEnglish
1·10 days agoI need Office/PowerBi/Teams to work without issue. The web versions do not cut it for my use cases.
Same problem. I actually use Mint on my laptop but the desktop still has Windows 10 because some apps are still just not useable or fully useable on Linux. As much as I wish Libre Office was a full replacement for MS Office, it’s not. At least not for power users.
You spend too much money on electricity. Have you thought about just freezing to death?
