that doesn’t mean the political articles will be!

The idea is that it means there’s no reason to trust anything the paper says. However, that doesn’t go far enough.

If you read an article in a paper about something you have direct knowledge of, and you can confirm the article is factually correct, that still doesn’t mean anything else in the paper can be trusted.

You can’t really trust anything. For all you know, I’m a guinea pig who managed to steal a cell phone to post on the Internet. I’m not, of course. That would be impossible. However, how would you know?

As you should be!

If you can’t hide evidence before you can be tried as an adult, you deserve what you get.

My wife and I just started watching “Your Honor” on Netflix. In the first episode, the judge’s son kills someone in a hit and run and comes home and tries to wash his bloody clothes. He doesn’t know how to use the washer and ends up flooding the laundry room.

I turned to my wife and said, “that’s why we insisted on teaching the kids to do their own laundry.”

If you’re doing it right, by the time your kids are 18, they should be able to take care of every basic task in the home on their own.

Perhaps people on Lemmy just aren’t learning anything.

Florida: “It was really cold that day!”

Nah, the fix is gonna have to be a workaround

Ah, yes. The “do nothing but cross your fingers and pray it doesn’t bite you in the ass” workaround.

I took a look. It’s all train stations, schools, and farms.

You’d think I lived in the middle of nowhere.

This is exactly why holding hands was invented.

Luckily, if you try to eat a polar bear liver, the polar bear will stop you.

But don’t worry, human liver is safe for polar bears to consume.

I used to work in the GRASP lab at Penn, and my predecessor there was John Bradley of xv fame. He had started naming all the machines after fish.

When I got there I continued the practice, naming some tiny computers being used for mini robots after different types of goldfish.

In my current job, years ago, I managed a group of Linux servers, and I named them after Demons (Lucifer, Asmodeus, Azrael, Beelzebub, etc.).

At this point, there is a specific naming convention in use where I’m at, and the name is limited to identifying organization, application, and server type.
