Never heard the phrase sealioning before, but I have seen it everywhere.

Environmental change activists? They have pretty authoritarian views on certain subjects, even if they are more “liberal” and alternative views?
Sadly here a huge amount of government is entirely online. Even 4 years ago when I wanted to do my passsport, because of my age bracket, I was not allowed to use a paper or internet method. I HAD to use a web app, and then with the app someone had to take a photo of me for the picture. No “send a photo in” no email the photo.
It couldn’t be your normal passport photo eaither, full waist up photo, with full white background and neutral lighting… It was completely impossible.
You are missing a key feature of that roundabout, the first sign leading up to it, and the “clock” theory.
Imagine an analogue clock. Anything between 12:00 and 6:00 you use the right hand lane, regardless of the shape of the roundabout in real life.
Anything between 6:00 and 12:00 you use the left hand lane. Again. Regardless of what the actual real world layout of the roundabout it.
The sign shows that the left lane is not to go “straight ahead”, even though you are staying on the A610 and staying on the “same road”
Once you got past those first two exits, you would then switch from lane 2 to lane 1, as per the sign on the roundabout.
So normally left would be to continue, in this specific case, right is to continue on the A610, and the people “cutting in front of you” are correct. Well, they shouldn’t cut, but they are not expecting you to still be in lane 1
Except when a sign states otherwise. In this case left lane is exit 1 and 2, and right lane is the others. Even if you are “exiting at 12:00” / straight over.
It how swift it has been. Friend and I went to a “mall” we hadn’t been to since we were kids. He pointed out "holy crap, this is where it used to be rows and rows of payphones. Even in 2010 I didn’t have a mobile, and only got one as all the payphones vanished.
Now so many things require an app or online sign-up.
Don’t feel too bad. Whatever the occasion it is acceptable to wear trousers. We can wear the same thing 50 times to 50 events and society won’t care
Proper fitting ones are also very comfortable. While the range of men’s clothing at supermarkets and bigger clothes stores is generally a lot less than women’s clothes, specialised men’s clothes shops and tailoring is much more common for men than women.
It just takes men a much longer time tomdoscover clothes that fit. Late 20’s when I discovered it, and early 30’s I have found what fits, and dye it to suit what colour I want!
Counter shower thought, I’m not even close to dating Lemmy. I spent 2 years getting to know Reddit, it will take me as long, if not longer due to Lemmy not being as mature as resdit was.
Right now, lemmy is the stranger at the train station asking why I am crying. It might turn into something, or I may just lean into Facebook / Instagram / YouTube / discord more.
Appreciate that these updates use the yyyy-mm-dd format :D
Then get an offline password manager. I have used DataVault on my phone for years. No subscription needed.
It really really depends.
“What time does ASDA shut?” - well the answer involves someone in the comment section googling it, I can see the “just Google it” frustration.
But
“Why is the bottom of my 3D print really messy?” - anyone who could claim to be intermediate at 3D printing would know that it is either a support material issue, or maybe they haven’t got “bridging” settings turned on. Replying with “a simple Google would find it was an issue with bridging” but the person asking the question may not even know that phrase to use.
Edit: I like to do the old “this is what i think it is, but here are some terms you could use to better understand in case my solution doesn’t work”
Google has really gone to shit. “2009 Eurovision winner”. 3 pages of the 2033 Eurovision winner.
Same with Google maps. “Pyramids of Giza”, shows pyramids bar in London.
I use Reddit for duckduckgo searches (if they lead me there) and to look for info. I interact and post to Lemmy.
Yes and no. Keeping the spammers away yes, but there is still so much more useful stuff that appears on Reddit.
I had the same with mastodon. How they explain it still makes no sense to me, and it seems like some strange echo chamber where youonly discuss 1 topic, whereas twitter is everything, and you just follow what you like.
Turns out I just don’t like the twitter format anyway.
Lemmy.world does a good job simulating what Reddit does, but I don’t think it will replace Reddit any time soon
I specifically use Reddit for the data retention and ease of finding “old” information, unlike basically other social media which scrubs it from any search even seconds after you looked at it (even if they still store the data)
How can i help donate and support lemmy.wold and the greater Lemmy ecosystem?
I am very new to Lemmy.world. I have noticed though there is no icon displayed on firefox for the bookmark (but there is for Chrome / DuckDuckGo browser).
Edit 2023-07-02 - For me this appears to have been fixed :)
Those things are not good. They are basically advanced fans. The entire “hot side” is still 8naode your house, and whole it has the hose to pump hot air out, essentially more air (normally from outside, which will be hot) has to come in to replace it. Ultimately thosw machines will make your house hotter, even if they are able to blow cold air on a specific area.
Strangely the old American style ones they hang out of a window are some.of the most effective, though we don’t really have any windows like that in Europe anymore to hang those AC units out.
