Literally sealioning, it’s hilarious how much you’re acting just like the comic.
You’re parroting talking points by conservatives.

Just looking at violent crime rates, Chicago is 84th out of US cities.
If you’d like to provide different statistics, I’d like to see them.

LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto 3DPrinting@lemmy.world•What are your go-to sites to find free 3D files to print?English3·5 days agoFeels like most high quality results are on printables these days. Thingiverse used to be the go-to so they’ve got a lot of models from the early days, so it’s worth checking.
Makerworld seems to be drawing a lot of the newer crowd due to their huge sponsorship push on influencers, so they have a growing audience as well.
If you’re looking for a functional part (not strictly art or models) it’s probably on one of those three.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto 3DPrinting@lemmy.world•What are your go-to sites to find free 3D files to print?English4·5 days agoThey originally showed items hosted anywhere and free first, but once people got used to it they changed all the defaults. If you go there now and search, you have to manually set the source or it only shows you results from thangs itself, and pushes paid models and memberships to the top.
I only use it as a last resort now, and it’s typically pretty bad.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto 3DPrinting@lemmy.world•What are your go-to sites to find free 3D files to print?English10·5 days agoNah, I briefly thought so, but their search shenanigans are trying to push people to only use their site.
They push paid designs and memberships hosted on thangs to the top, and default search to Thangs only.
They originally showed items hosted anywhere and free first, but once people got used to it they changed all the defaults. It’s a big bait and switch.

Homemade plain pancakes are fine as long as you don’t overdo it. Too much sugar is bad for people and dogs.
https://www.petmd.com/dog/nutrition/what-can-dogs-not-eat
As long as you mostly avoid anything with those ingredients, a dog can pretty much eat anything a person can. For thousands of years, dogs lived almost exclusively on people food leftover scraps.
That being said, most dogs are a pretty pain diet, and quickly changing to a different diet can cause stomach issues, so keep the table scraps very light until you know how they’ll react.
Also, since we keep dogs inside these days, teaching your dog that they usually get table scraps can cause them to become a nuisance while eating, so don’t neglect proper behavior training.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How effective are life jackets in rapidly flowing deep flood waters?English9·7 days agoNot exactly true, yes if the debris is bad enough and the current is strong enough, there isn’t a lot that will help. BUT if you have a life jacket, even in swiftly moving water, you can lean back and orient your feet downstream and it’ll keep your head away from the worst of it.
That would be significantly harder to do without a PFD.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever wished to be ignorant?English12·8 days agoThey used to use your list of installed fonts as one of the data types to figure out who you are.
I’m not sure if that’s still a thing, how many people download new fonts now, but it was an important part of fingerprinting at one point.
Fun fact, if Maxwell is pardoned, she can no longer plead the 5th.
If she’s not at risk of prison for her testimony, she can be compelled to testify. If she doesn’t testify, she can be jailed indefinitely, fined, or any other punishment (within reason) the judge decides is until she gives the full, honest truth.
He’s more at risk if she is pardoned than if she isn’t.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto memes@lemmy.world•Older Gens Living 'The Good Life'English13·10 days agoI think the original intent of the meme is that a nurse or a CNA would be cleaning up after their bowel movement.
But these people are clearly mobile enough that they can certainly use the bathroom by themselves, and the way they’re looking at each other it kind of gives a different vibe.
Edit: dammit, I said no questions!!!

LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What RSS feeds do you follow?English2·12 days agoFind your local news sources, whatever they are, and add ALL of them. You can usually filter by local news so you don’t get a bunch or repeat national/international news.
Aside from that - this is a decent list to start from.

LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto Uplifting News@lemmy.world•Scientists solve centuries-old mystery behind Stradivari’s legendary violin soundEnglish56·12 days agoSo the exact same thing people have been saying for decades.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto News@lemmy.world•Trump's war on Parmigiano ReggianoEnglish17·12 days agoPeople think American cheese and think Kraft.
People think American chocolate and think Hershey.
People think American beer and think Budweiser.
People think American burgers and think McDonald’s.
They just know the cheap, bland international brands, but not the amazing regional stuff.
America is a huge diverse place, with amazing food, amazing people, and amazing landscapes, but they only experience the cheap stuff, cause the best stuff isn’t made for export.
Edit: they’ve never had Wisconsin string cheese where you can see the handprints of the person who made it, and it shows.
LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where does the light go when you turn off its source?English1·13 days agoI feel like this comment exaggerates how far the human eye can perceive into the universe. Anything you can see with your eyeball is only as far as a few hundred light years, which means it would be extremely unlikely that any star you can see is significantly different in location “now” than when the light emitted.
Also it would be extremely unlikely for any star you can see with your eyes to have died between the time light is emitted and when you experience it.
That’s a different story for things you can see through a telescope, or through a camera, but just looking up… Those points of light are pretty close and extremely bright stars.
You do point out the light from the stars dim due to inverse square law, but don’t forget they also red-shift due to the expansion of the universe. The cosmic microwave background radiation didn’t start as microwaves, it started as red visible light that slowly red shifted into the infrared, then into microwave.
New York City, since it wasn’t clear from the headline/summary.
