I’m in the USA but I think it’s inevitable. The USA is the single largest primarily English speaking democracy in the world. Since Lemmy.world is a primarily English speaking instance, it should be expected that an American would create a politics community first and since it’s the first they just call it politics.

For example, the UK is the only country in the world where they don’t put the country name on their stamps. Because they invented paper stamps first in 1840.

This is not a fight worth worrying about IMO.

Bud Lite?

I really miss hot swappable batteries. Just carry a small spare battery and swap it when needed. So much now convenient than needing to plug it in to top up.

I used to worry about this a lot, I still do but I used to too.

Joking aside, it’s a shit show that us plebians can’t really do anything about but I still try. I’ve driven a hybrid for the last 6 years, I have a smart thermostat to try to save energy, I try to eat less meat more often. I recycle a lot more than most. I even make my own bread and nut milks and many other things which is not only cheaper and healthier (and WAY more delicious) but requires less transport related greenhouse gas emissions than buying premade breads and nut milks. Nut milk is especially better than dairy milk in that matter.

Oh yeah! And yesterday I picked up 10 large trash bags of litter:

That’s the price we pay for freedom.

I didn’t know it was you.

Praise /u/spez! /s

I literally couldn’t find Lemmy.world on Google by searching Lemmy.world, it was wild to see that.

I only started going when I was 28. I’m also a very independent learner, I was unschooled as a child, but I love it.

I’m the top student in most of my classes and I have straight As. It’s nice to prove to myself I’m able to succeed in school when I didn’t go when I was younger. You should give it a try, you might be surprised how much you actually enjoy it! I know I was.

6 class days away from finishing my Associates Degree at community college. 😁

Halfway to Bachelor’s.

I use Android and I hate drastic change, my brother switched to the apple ecosystem and is constantly showing me cool things. I’ll give Apple one thing, they know how to make their devices just work together with basically no effort. It’s something I wish Android did even half as well.

Okay, so I for sure am running the latest qBittorrent (4.5.4), and I uninstalled Python and reinstalled it (3.11.4 amd64) making sure that access to Path was checked this time. Rebooted and it still isn’t working for me. :-\ I updated the OP with a screenshot of what I’m seeing.

Yes, but you’re still a major celebrity in America!

This is me. I’m going to occasionally see posts that Google links me to, and I may even login once in a while on the website on my PC to browse a bit, but my days of constant participation are basically over.

Reddit Sync IS Reddit to me. I’ve used it at least weekly for 11 years straight. But TBH, the fediverse is very similar and I don’t think I’ll miss Reddit much. Especially as the more niche communities start to develop over here too.
