No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How tf do people who work 8-5 M-F get any life done?
2·2 days agoIt’s only for about two months thankfully, which results in 6 months of 4 day weeks and a few weeks of extra vacation time. Biology is pretty seasonal so April/may are quite busy.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada Post announces nearly 500K addresses to lose home delivery
11·2 days agoHome delivery is quite a bit less secure than community mailboxes.
Community mailboxes all have locked boxes with a designated key to access…
There are very few household mailboxes that have anything to secure the mail. Either it’s a box on the street or a box on your porch, or a slot in your front door maybe.
The street boxes and porch boxes rarely have keys or locks. Anyone can take your mail.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Winnipeg woman gets 'ridiculous' federal letter seeking 20-cent repayment
7·4 days agoBack in 2016 I got a letter saying I was overplayed like $1800 or something (Pheonix pay system fiasco). Write back asking for the documentation/calculations/proof before I relayed and then never heard a word back from them and no one ever followed up.
Stupid that they will chase $0.20 from someone though, I’m sure there are higher priorities to work on.

News@lemmy.world•DC Reflecting Pool Growing Algae Just Days After Trump’s $14M Renovation
3·4 days agoI don’t doubt he is that petty but I also wouldn’t be surprised if he is just too stupid to know what to do on how own so just does whatever Obama did as president like following a little “how to president for dummies” guidebook.

News@lemmy.world•DC Reflecting Pool Growing Algae Just Days After Trump’s $14M Renovation
71·4 days agoIt wasn’t algae free before. Trump thought spending millions on making it a darker colour would stop the algae growth. Might have slowed it slightly since there’s less light reflected back up from the bottom now but there’s no stopping it since, y’know, it’s 100% exposed to sunlight on the surface.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•"Now increase rent prices by 10% so they stay with their parents for 10 more years"
51·5 days agoI’m not saying multigenerational housing is a bad thing, I’m just saying it shouldn’t* be the only option for a lot of people who would prefer to have their own space. I’m in a multi-generational household myself and it has its benefits and faults.
You shouldn’t be forced to live that way because it’s you’re only option though

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canada Post announces nearly 500K addresses to lose home delivery
61·5 days agoPeople shouldn’t be guaranteed home delivery because of their address.
There should be community mailboxes as a standard and then if you have a mobility issue you apply for home delivery.
At the moment there are many people who aren’t impaired that get home delivery who don’t really need it and cost tax payers more money. Those resources should be directed to those that need it on a case by case basis.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•"Now increase rent prices by 10% so they stay with their parents for 10 more years"
52·5 days agoThe people saying living in a multi-generational home isn’t so bad are also the most likely to complain that the country is turning into a third world country (where multi-generational homes are common) because of immigration.

Climate@slrpnk.net•California is investing a half-billion dollars to decarbonize homes for low-income households71·5 days agoFor me the main benefit is the ability to still feed yourself if the power goes out for any length of time, and heat your house if it’s in winter.
Otherwise you are eating cold canned beans and freezing. Power goes out fairly frequently at my place. We could electrify and install a backup generator but then you are still using gas just a different kind.
Pyr@lemmy.catoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Stores are making record profits while complainingEnglish
2·6 days agoI prefer it if I have like 8 items or less.
Anything more and I cant be bothered. Especially if it’s groceries and there are codes to enter instead of barcodes to scan and weights to take.
Pyr@lemmy.catoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Stores are making record profits while complainingEnglish
2·6 days agoI did accidentally steal something the other day when one item stuck to the back of an identical one so I thought I was getting 6 but accidentally got 8 instead.
Just laid them flat on the counter then scan scan scan scan scan. Didn’t even notice until I got home.

3·6 days agoNot only that, they admitted that it is only “most” users that understand it’s not accurate.
What about the rest? Just fuck em I guess? Let them eat poisonous mushrooms and wire their life savings away to a Nigerian prince.

Make up for it in the winter when I work 4 days a week 😆

politics @lemmy.world•Graham Platner Wins in Maine, Turning Anti-Establishment Fight on Susan Collins
112·7 days agoSo arguing online that “SS” lightning-bolt tattoos were a “culture” marker within Marine Scout Sniper units, not an expression of White supremacist ideology.
Means he support Nazi’s?
Sure maybe it shows that he was told earlier what it means but it by no means proves or is evidence that he knew what it was when he got the tattoo, just that it was a standard thing that many Marines got.
I also had an online handle for years which has the number 88 in it way before I found out that it was a hidden dog whistle for Nazi’s. I guess I was a Nazi when I was 8 years old.

I browse /all for the most part. There are about 20+ communities on my block list so I don’t see a bunch of furry/trans/penises.
The downside to the fediverse is all the repetitive communities across different instances.
