I’m very quick to block. Much faster to do so than I was on Reddit. I think the reason is because there’s so much less content on Lemmy that I sort by new instead of “hot”. That means I see content that would normally have been downvoted out of sight on Reddit. I’m tired of giving people the benefit of the doubt just to see the same terrible shit from them again later on. Now I just block.

Damn, I didn’t realize it was the 3 year anniversary. I just happened to finish up my rewatch of the series today too. Still makes me cry. A lot.

Yeah, but he knew Pence didn’t have his back then. This time he made sure to pick someone that would swear fealty.

Generally, I completely agree, but if his back is to the wall and this is the only way out, I could see it happening. He had to know that as soon as he’s out of office, he’s going to be absolutely fucked.

It didn’t happen during the 4 years that he was out of office, I doubt it’s going to happen now.

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if he steps down at any point before the next election with the promise of being fully pardoned by Vance.

What. The. Fuck.

the name ‘Copilot’ now refers to at least 75 different things.

Reminds me of 90s gaming marketing🤌

Boot.dev covers a lot of this. They have a Typescript and a Go path that you can choose between. They do take a computer science basics approach to their backend courses, which has pros and cons. This means that there’s a significant number of courses, and a lot of them rely on learnings from previous ones. If you have any coding experience, you can probably skip all the Python and C courses and jump right into the meat of it. It’s also a go at your own pace monthly subscription course. Again, pros and cons. As an experienced frontend dev, I got through the Typescript path in about 2 months that’s spending a good amount of time each week on it. There is also an active Discord community that you can reach out to with questions if the AI assistance bot isn’t able to answer them, but it’s pretty good.

Ah, thanks for explaining it to me. I never played any of the Half-life games, but recognized Gordon Freeman. Because of that, I assumed the mime was from Expedition 33 and that these were all video game characters. Completely missed the bold text, and therefore the joke.

It depends on the stability that the parents can provide. There are so many ways this can go, that I’m not going to make generalized assumptions, but it’s entirely possible with a system like that for a mother to have sole custody of a child when she is not the more stable option, just because she is the mother. From the sound of it, most parents don’t go to the courts and work it out themselves, which is fantastic, but if both parents want to be in the life of the child, and both are stable and responsible parties, the court shouldn’t prevent that. That being said, I don’t have any first-hand experience with the Japanese courts, and I’m going to stop guessing at how all this plays out.

Previously, divorcing couples in Japan were free to decide custody and visitation arrangements. But if they went to court over it, custody would only be awarded to one parent.

Under the new law, a family court can decide whether to grant sole or joint custody to divorcing couples.

Parents who divorced under the old system are also now eligible to have their custody arrangement reviewed by the family court.

That’s crazy, but I’m in fascist America, so who am I to talk.

Who is the monk?

They built Doom in CSS (and HTML, JS).

Personally wasn’t a fan of the game at all, but indie studios shutting down is bad for everyone. I hope the devs are able to get back on their feet again soon.

Fucking knew they were going to turn it into an FPS. What’s wrong with the twin stick shooter formula that all the others were?

OP’s terrible title is referring to this (fucking amazing) scene, and the character Jeff Daniels, not JD Vance.

I guess Death got the last round house kick.

Donald Trump over the weekend posted a graphic that alarmed numerous political observers.

Trump took to his own social media site, Truth Social, to post the graphic, which is called, “President Trump is reshaping the media.” The image celebrates that NPR, Stephen Colbert, Jim Acosta, and others in the media are “gone,” while noting that CNN and the FCC have both been “reformed” by the president.
