  • EU court says private jet manufacturing can be labelled green investment

    Jump

  • LMFAO! The whole thing is some doublethink BS, but this line really got me!

    The court noted that the Commission had failed to take into account that ⁠private ​jets could be flown ​on sustainable fuel.

  • Me finding out about raw: "close enough"

  • When I first heard the term, I expected some real Nile Blue turning cardboard into estrogen type shit.

  • When you accidentally say "folder" instead of "directory" in a Linux group.

  • Me, earlier today, referring to Niri as a desktop instead of a "window manager," which is also wrong as it's a Wayland compositor.

  • People who didn't get sugar as kids, how did that work out?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I'm in that boat. I did have some sugar, but it was extremely rare, and IIRC got phased out more as I got older. I don't think it was ever a hard rule of "no," but more of a "have very little except maybe on special occasions." I never developed much of a taste for sweet things to the point I quite often find muffins for scones unreasonably sweet. When I was doing mountain bike races, I had energy chews and bars. In hinds sight, that was probably a poor nutrition choice for my metabolism, and I now I simply have roasted and salted pistachios, with a sugar free electrolyte mix before and/or after the ride.

    I also very much seem to be the exception here. Probably my experience more comes down to my own eccentricities. I have the eating habits and body type of a distance athlete; healthy but low weight, diet consisting largely of slow-burning foods like nuts, fruits and starchy vegetables. I am still figuring out what diet and training routine works best for me, but sugar, even as a mid-ride fuel is a hard no-go for me. I like putting in the work to be able to do extreme sports like mountain biking and snowboarding at a reasonably intense level all day long. I listen to my body and I know without a shadow of a doubt touching high sugar and certainly processed foods is not worth it by any means.

  • I have some wild helicopter watching stories. Best would probably be when there was a small wildfire a few miles away from my college. I was watching the flight tracker and saw them pull in a Huey and Blackhawk, and tracked down exactly where they were collecting water. Ditched class and went to watch them. They let us get like 100ft away from these ridiculous massive machines as they were taking on water. At one point, the Blackhawk pilot started playing chicken with us, trying to see if he could knock us off the hillside, LOL. Even still I will go out and watch most helicopters.

  • Are you referring to my questionable font choice? IDK about the left-hand side of the image, I just downloaded the template but it looked right to me, all I did was add in the text, as one is want to do with memes.

  • Similar experience for my first time having they/them pronouns used IRL... I was mountain biking in full body armor, full face helmet, and goggles. Someone said to their kid, "let them go ahead, they'll be really fast," or something. I proceeded to hit 48km/h on singletrack, a speed I haven't replicated since. So I guess I was given a speed boost by the comment?

  • A WRX will always love you... if you give it the love they deserve. (If you don't your gearbox will explode and your head gaskets will disintegrate).

  • me_irl

    Jump

  • Of course. It's a Subaru Impreza WRX. Heck, looks to be a bugeye if my eyes don't deceive me. I probably did that when I got my first WRX...

  • Which Android app do you use for YouTube?

    Jump

  • I don't watch YouTube on my phone anymore other than FireFox with uBlock. For me, it's all a YT feed aggregated by RSS and played by MPV on Linux.
