1 day agoI’d have to re-remember a lot of stuff I’ve forgotten, but late 70s, early 80s.
Unless you count “typing” as a marketable skill, then I could probably go back to 1872?

Yeah, I mean it’s still DOABLE. I put $30,000 down on a $390,000 house. 7.7%. 😉
You’re off by a decimal. 20,000 is 1% of 2,000,000.
For a 10% down it either needs to be a 200,000 house, or a 200,000 down on a 2 mil. house.
When you make a report, it goes to the mods of that community, but it also goes to the Admins of their home instance.
Generally, people take a dim view of AI content and remove it once it’s apparent.
Yes, I’d say report it when you see it. If you see something, say something.
InfiniteBagel already got banned for this, so at a minimum, Bagel is ban evading. Same for CosmicWaffle or whatever the other one was.
A 1970’s band and their audio engineers, trapped in a neverending philosophical prison where they slowly lose their minds.

It’s fascinating when you look at Congressional approval rates.
Almost universally, people disapprove of “Congress”:

MY Congresswoman? +1. No notes.
But she can only do so much on her own.
Jesus, Flowbee is way more expensive than I remembered!
When I was first made a mod 2 years ago I banned a troll for bad behavior.
Since then they have created HUNDREDS of Lemmy accounts specifically attacking me.
We had to come up with new rules and bots to deal with their fragile psyche.
There’s a time and place for everything and it’s called ‘College’.
Frankenstein (the book) is all over the place. Haven’t seen the new movie yet so I don’t know what settings they use there.

A lot of it depends on context. You’re not really told where the city in the Matrix is located, but based on the skyscrapers and freeways in part 2 it feels really LA-ish. Filmed in Sydney. But of course “The Matrix” has no physical location so it doesn’t matter.
I mean anything is POSSIBLE. People meet and date and even get married from online communications all the time.
Would you do that for a girl back home with whom you had a random hookup but no serious intentions?
If “no” then then you’re probably leading them on thinking you’re getting married.
If anything, you’re taking advantage of them, living in their house and sleeping with their daughter.
Could be the gloss coat on the cover, spray a rag with Lysol or something similar and wipe them down.
If it’s INSIDE the books too, all you can do is fan them and air them out.
You might try asking in the book specific communities and see what turns up? 🤔
Dunno specifically, as the closest I get to that orbit are my wife’s Bridgerton books. LOL.
Brand fanboys + free stickers.
Yeah, that’s a good one. I like the Illuminati Papers and Right Where You Are Sitting Now as well!
All of Wilson is fantastic, but this is probably the most accessible of his fiction.
His non-fiction though, man, throw a dart. 😉
Tostada?
Yes, they peaked during Covid.

The last run of X-Men before the current run, they discovered 5 mutants working together enabled immortality through resurrection protocols.
Your brain is backed up to the cloud and downloaded to a cloned body on death.
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Resurrection_Protocols
"Egg produces a number of nonviable biological “eggs,” equal to the number of mutants the Five have to resurrect.
The eggs are then injected with mutant DNA from Mister Sinister’s genetic catalogue, and then made viable thanks to Proteus’ reality-altering powers.
Elixir biologically gives the eggs life starting a new cellular replication process and husk growth
Tempus uses her time manipulation powers to quickly age the mutant husks.
Hope Summers uses her powers to enhance everyone else’s abilities. Hope’s powers allow the Five to operate at both their peak and in unison.
A telepath then copies over the mutant’s consciousness, recorded by Cerebro, from a copy made at the time of their deaths, onto the husk.
Through this process, the Five are effectively able to make new clones of deceased mutants, restoring their bodies, their powers, and their minds as they were at the time of their deaths."
