I was the first person to post on the pluriverse in 2008.

Cookie cutter engagement bullshit questions. “Which blah would you blah if you could blah a blah? Let me know in the comments”

A pound cake is supposed to have a pound of butter, hence the name. So, four sticks. Three sticks is a diet pound cake.

It’s a fixed bid. The faster you get the work done the more you make per hour. (Per minute, really.)

Ok, how does $5 sound?

My two eyes see slightly different color. Noticed this years ago when looking at a florescent ceiling light with my eyes relaxed such that I was seeing a double image. The two images of the light were a slightly different color.

I’m a dude.

It’s possible that time causes gravity.

I once came across information that said natural forces never pull

That’s absolute nonsense. Discard that thought and never repeat it again.

I’m not sure I would trust human oil hunger with a 10ft pole on that one.

I’ll fix it for you:

I’m not sure I would trust human oil hunger as far as I could throw a 10 ft pole.

Neat!

The content isn’t long enough to scroll, and the superscript doesn’t look like a link. Tapping it just collapses replies now that I’ve replied.

Tapping the little arrow doesn’t collapse replies, so it’s doing something. It might scroll up if your comment were long enough.

Thunder is fantastic. It’s so good now. Lots of customizations, and it’s actively being developed.

The markdown support is good, and spoiler tags are done right. It has it’s own YouTube video player now, too.

The only issue I’ve found recently is superscripts rendering funny. Let me try one again.

This number should be a superscript¹ more words.

Oh, it’s working now. The other day or at putting a line break before the superscript.

Ewww, imagine how many people have breathed the air you’re breathing right now.

Is it possible the heavy traffic is causing Lemmy to temporarily block this person and not actually crashing the instance?

This was the dino demo the article mentions:

I only recently learned about it and it’s genuinely fun! Jumping the balls gets stupidly hard at level 5 or 6, though.

Your brain is askew.

This is all about mass production “Levittowns”. Not factory built homes in general. For most of their history, they didn’t make prefabbed home, but instead built every home on site. They merely used the same plan for every home and leveraged economies of scale to make them cheaper. It wasn’t until much later that they got into prefab homes.

Reasons for business failure

• Falling demand
• Land use controls became much stricter and more burdensome
• The U.S. housing market collapsed in 1973
• economies of scale are offset by huge overheads making the enterprise not all that effective
• being acquired for too much money and then mismanaged

Prefabricated homes are still a thing. But not these huge cookie-cutter developments of 15,000 of the same home in one town.

Shut up with your pessimism. The world is a shitshow, yes, but posting good news with such a shitty doomer title is fucking infuriating.

This article about margarine doesn’t say that, and contradicts that. I’ve seen videos that agree it was originally made for humans.

After the French Emperor Napoleon III issued a challenge to create a butter-substitute from beef tallow for the armed forces and lower classes, Hippolyte Mège-Mouriès invented margarine in 1869.
