The thing I dislike the most is that my bot got banned. I made a bot to post carefully categorized articles into their proper communities, but it was banned without warning or explanation. All the communities I was modding dried up shortly thereafter because I didn't manually post in them instead.

I haven't made it myself yet, but I've always wanted to make my own tepache, a fermented drink made with the rinds and core of a pineapple. I drink it a lot of the De La Calle tepache and really like it.

40 or so. I have shirts for my MLS (Sounders), NWSL (Reign), USLC (rip San Diego Loyal), USL1 (Madison), USL2 (Ballard) and national team (usa) sides. You're definitely right that prices are getting exorbitant -- I am probably going to have to sell some.

Someone offered a definition here: https://lemmy.world/comment/8529913

From the discussion, that definition may also be a hallucination, though.

I use yarn 4 plus turborepo and am very happy with my setup. You can see tybalt for a reasonably-sized project with my preferred monorepo setup.

Mr and Mrs Smith and EA FC 24. I think Donald Glover probably would make a pretty decent central midfielder, now that I think about it.

 

Why .7 and not .5? The world may never know.

Sorry, looks like this off-topic post was added due to a mention of Matty Beniers.

 

ROCKS ARE IMMUTABLE

Rocks are immutable and hold No scope for self-aggrandizement, Each well-worn pebble churned and rolled Suffers a like predicament.

Gripped in what mesh of causal schemes Endures each casual atom what When one perchanced electron screams A stuttering signal, and is not?

Grant then a gamete, grant a score By crabbed environment beset, And man the instrument, no more, And where’s the credit? Where the debt?

Or grant pure chaos, flickering chance, And life’s defection near and soon, Then mark the shock of circumstance, The day from solid darkness hewn — Rock is a shivering miracle, Betrayed in sunlight, gleaming wet, And love cries out in chlorophyll To welcome truth in petals yet!

— From These Our Matins (1930) by Michael Roberts.

US. In my dialect, all three are different.

Middle school: 6-8

Intermediate school: 7-8

Jr High: 7-9

I attended an intermediate school that called itself a jr high, so I can understand the confusion.

Agreed. I'm a soccer/hockey/volleyball fan myself, and really struggled to pay attention for the 4.5 hour event. 115 minute soccer games (once you include halftime and stoppage) are much more my speed.

 
 
 

The article is a bit Washington-centric, but The Communities Over Highways Campaign the article is about is not -- I just couldn't find a source with a broader perspective. You can find the campaign's site here: https://americawalks.org/the-communities-over-highways-campaignwhat-you-need-to-know/

It does soften language that could otherwise be mistaken for harshness tho

Not “millionaires”, it’s “millions” like “lots of people”.
