Either Russia pays better or they're just holding out hope that being contrarian to Democrats, regardless of the issue, will win them another term.

Eh, more like Trekkies are techies. I would consider myself somewhat of a techie, definitely nerdy, and very much into sci-fi, but I really don't give a shit about Star Trek. I've seen a lot of it, just because I've had a couple girlfriends that really enjoyed it, but otherwise I probably wouldn't have watched any after my childhood.
Now, if HBO were to do a hard R version, I'd probably get into it.

Dude. This is 2023. I'm sure they've already got a translator app that flips the words for them.

I haven't been able to find any information about this error anywhere, so I'm hoping to find some help here.

I'm using version .150
The problem persists after a phone restart.
I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that's what I'm going to try now.

*UPDATE: Nope, that didn't work.

*UPDATE #2: I got frustrated with this issue and decided to install another app instead of waiting for someone to come along with the magic answer. Welp, the issue followed me to the Thunder app. This leads me to believe that it's either an issue with my phone (possible, but I haven't changed anything on it, either shortly before, or since this problem started) or an issue with Lemmy itself (of which I know absolutely nothing about how it works internally).
I did, however, see a big block of code pop up a couple times when Connect was trying and failing to load the comments, but both times it disappeared as soon as I touched the screen. I'm not a programmer, by any stretch if the imagination, so I didn't notice if it looked weird or anything (other than appearing where it shouldn't). I'll keep poking at Connect and Thunder to see if I can get it to do it again so I can try to grab a screenshot.

UPDATE #3: I was able to get the block of code to pop up again. This time it stuck around and, even though it wouldn't let me select and copy the text, let me take pictures. It's a pretty long chunk of (what I'm guessing is) HTML, which starts with "Error: < ! DOCTYPE html >"(minus some spaces) I took screenshots of the whole thing, but it's like 60 screens long so, I can edit the pics into one and post it if that helps, but it will take me a while.

UPDATE 4: This only seems to happen when I'm logged in. If I'm logged out while using the apps, I can still see the comments.

"...which they believed event organizers issued in accordance with Tennessee laws restricting certain books in schools."
Legal worries, I'm guessing.

A little background on me: I just started playing a few days ago. I don't have any friends that play and my headset died a while back, so I'm always going in solo. I've been enjoying the difficulty of completing missions and searching for good loot. The hardest part for me is dealing with other players.
I've personally just been ignoring anyone that I come across (aside from a couple mistaken identity incidents), because I know they're trying to get some shit done themselves, but most, if not all, will turn around and kill me as I continue to go about my business.
So, I guess I'm just wondering if any of you feel the same as me, or if you like it more with the PvP? Is it your expectation that players will compete and kill each other or do you prefer co-op?

Before you start slinging shit at me, I'm not complaining here. I get a little frustrated when I have some good stuff and some other squad shoots me in the back, but I'm still leveling up and having a good time playing. I also realize that some of you enjoy hunting each other, and that's totally fine, I like PvP games too. My personal opinion is just that, in this game mode, it seems like a waste of time and effort (and, for the loser, loot) with everything else that we have to contend with in the game, especially for solo players.

My 3.5mm headset died. I have a nice USB-A gaming headset, but I haven't been able to find any way to connect it to the controller. Do any of you know of a way to do this?

[-] Travalanche@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Well, fuck you too, Jeff.

[-] Travalanche@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Well, that's simply not true. While that may be how they found the land for Central Park, that's not the reason why other cities haven't made large parks like in NYC.
Portland, OR has (I think) the second biggest inner-city park in the country, and I'm fairly sure no minority neighborhoods were destroyed to create it. Way to be edgy though.
As for answering OP's question... I'm guessing the property is just too valuable as commercial and residential land for the city governments to want to redesignate as parks. Especially now with the housing crisis and all.

Was it not her in the truck then? I thought the family had positively identified her by her tattoos.Though, you really can't see much of them in the video that went viral.

Killing people is apparently 100% legal in the US as long as you ~~use a car to do it~~ are politically connected. Same as 90% of other countries, unfortunately.

What are we talking about here? The Coke ad?

[-] Travalanche@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago

It's an unfortunately common, bullshit move politicians pull, just to have something to hang over each other's heads in order to get what they want. Unfortunately, that has become totally ok in the eyes of Republican voters because it's often the only way for their reps to force through budget items that would otherwise never make it.

My son has some vision issues that I think should be checked out. Do any of you have a recommendation for a pediatric opthalmologist by chance?

It's one chicken Michael, what could it cost, $800?
