The private for profit health insurance industry - because what could make number go up better than a (LEGALLY MANDATED) do nothing middle man who’s only purpose is to take your money and ensure as little as possible is spent on healthcare sitting between you and not dying?
Just think of all the great things you’re going to learn about emergency boot recovery!
Competition is good! Unless it makes shareholders sad.
From reading the penny arcade blog about it and watching the trailer, it seems to be an arthouse movie that just happens to be made by the most famous people on earth. You might love it or hate it but most people just won’t get it either way
These sound right to me, especially Dying Earth - a podcast I listen to covered Gene Wolf’s Book of the New Sun trilogy and they described it as such. Wikipedia calls it Science Fantasy. Great books by the way
lot of that going around I guess
Not an idiom, but a slogan for a sugary children’s cereal Trix.
I saw the wall of text, skipped to the punchline, and rolled my eyes glad I saved myself a couple minutes

Just build a road one mile wide between and directly through the middle of every urban center so suburbanites have an easier time getting where they’re going. This is so easy I should be a road planner
Sort of like pheromones.
Getting mysteriously horny during the test drive
Better yet getting mysteriously aggressive smelling a rival and wanting to fight the car.
Reading more of these comments it’s clear we need to invest heavily in biking and transit infrastructure so taking away some idiots drivers license doesn’t damn them to poverty
An issue I see locally is they can’t just paint a circle on the road with a couple signs. It always has to be a million dollar project widening out the curbs, building up a huge curb in the middle, putting a big goddamn planter in the middle, then sprinkle signs liberally until it’s unreadable.
A federation superhighway, if you will
You can hear him screaming “I’M NOT OWNED! I’M NOT OWNED!!!” right through the internet
Super Metroid, probably started it at least forty times and finished it a dozen or more. Link to the Past was one I had started several times but never beat until I met my now wife, who had played it through often. Now it’s one of my go to games. I’ve played through Doom 1+2 quite a few time and Quake occasionally SOMA since it came out has been my go to Halloween game.
Dirt Rally and Dirt Rally 2.0 are much more recent but unparalleled rally racing games.
Just like the old world internet, whoever owns (or rents) the server and pays for the connection pays for it. The frontpage has a “Donations” section that lists an OpenCollective link and a Patreon link if you want to send money to the operator. It’s https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld which sounds like they also run a Mastodon instance.
I don’t know the traffic questions, hopefully someone that does comes by or looks it up. It probably varies a lot. You could run your own private instance that would go out and fetch the content you subscribed to but no one else could join. Your comments would go out to the federated instances to be shared if you so choose.
There is no central place. As I understand it if Lemmy.world or Beehaw is destroyed permanently, all those users and and the content is gone but every other instance that shared those communities (the common ones, like this) they will still exist just without the content coming from the disappeared instances.
I’ll look around for an explainer vid because now I’m curious, I doubt most of my guesses are right
9.0, would have been a 9.5 if Shadow had a gun
