What era would you rather have been born in?

Why is there a watermelon there?

Subs or dubs?

Lemmy isn’t a site at all. It’s a piece of software.

This Republican administration is doing everything in its power to establish the precedent that it can disappear whoever it wants into a foreign prison over which even the leader of that nation claims to have no aithority, and further that it can do so whenever it wants, for any reason it wants, entirelybregardless of any other governmental ruling, including a direct court order.

Very obviously, this is not a power that an office in a nation of liberty and justice should ever possess, for any reason, ever.

One would think that Republicans would be particularly determined in their opposition to that, rather than being the ones responsible for it.

I’m just the opposite.

I still own my SNES and all of its games from back in the day (and an NES, an original XBox and a PSX with their games), and they’re all in boxes in my garage. Pretty much as soon as emulation became viable, that became my preferred way to play, since I don’t have screw with wires and connections and consoles and cartridges or discs and all the rest of that clutter. I just click on an icon, select a game from a list, and away I go.

Well… yeah. True.

I’d go even further - get them from people who emulatecthe games rather than people who play them on (or merely buy them for) the original hardware.

People who emulate retro games are demonstrably SOLELY interested in playing the games, without any of the collector cachet getting in the way.

So they’re basically voting explicitly to void the Constitution.

Interesting tidbit there…

Clinton was impeached for perjury - specifically for lying under osth.

The thing is though that the “lying” part of it wasn’t the actual crime. The “under oath” part is the actual crime. Perjury is actually the violation of a legally sworn oath, and it’s just that the oath to tell the truth in a court is the one most often violated

But violaing an oath of office is also technically perjury, and a crime, and impeachable. And congresspeople swear oaths to, among other things, uphold the Constitution.

So that could be interesting if the Democrats demolish the Republicans in the midterms.

It likely won’t be, since Congresspeople are pretty much universally corrupt cowards, but still…

Those aren’t actually lemmy.world communities.

Everything on that list is a community on that instance (whatever it is - lemm.ee I guess).

For example, a post from a lemm.ee account to [email protected] is actually a post to an entirely separate community - [email protected]@lemm.ee That lemm.ee community is a mirror of the lemmy.world community (and of all the other communities on all the other instances that mirror it.

That’s how federation actually works. You never actually leave your home instance, and what seems like a post to a community on another instance is actually a post to a locally hosted mirror of that community.

I just got this perfect visual image of Trump - greasy, overly made-up, flabby face contorted with childish rage - shrieking “Off with his head!”
