Shut the fuck up, low quality clown. Education is me not doing this to my kids.

Please learn how to read.

“I don’t care”, followed by: “I won’t do that to my kids”

Clown: “ambivalent, learn how to write”.

Coupla corn dogs short of a circus, there.

I don’t really care. My dick works great, I wouldn’t do this to my kids but my parents trusted the doctor. I still love my parents anyway.

E: also, this illustrated girl looks really weird, and this is a really weird conversation. Real women do not look like this, and I wouldn’t get naked in front of a girl who looked like this. Eeesh.

Sounds like they gave you a free lobotomy too.

Mmm… No. Couple of gen Z kids I know are basically checked out of social media, having reverted to good old group chats it seems.

It was mostly due to work by Giuliani’s predecessor, David Dinkins. I wrote a longer comment about it.

The ‘broken windows’ theory was really an excuse to put black and brown people in jail for minor crimes. People still hop the turnstiles, but that’s not the real source of crime.

Look at the overall economics of the period, once Reagan was gone and the people in NYC could start getting jobs again… What’s attractive about being a criminal? It’s hard, and there’s always the chance someone’s got a dagger or pistol on them.

There’s some cool weird stuff in sf, what about Folsom street fair, there’s the DNA lounge with Davidson underground music, etc… Lots of kids in the mix, but it’s your life too, fuck it.

Lol you don’t have to “give me” anything, both our eyes probably work just fine.

The peep shows weren’t the thing that I’m bummed about, it was the wholesale destruction of anything underground. What’s NYC without the weird, interesting stores and people? Once the area gets washed out, why go?

E: here’s a cool article on what these gentrifiers and other assclowns have in mind for places like NYC: honest-broker.com/…/14-warning-signs-that-you-are…

Nah bro, him and Ed Koch were very deep into the mafia’s patronage system, which is important because it’s also how he so effectively sued the mafia out of control.

Terrible, lackluster mayor, but he slam dunked the mafiosos pretty good. Too handily, in my opinion, like he knew of key people at different points in the system he used to personally navigate.

Did bugging and tracking techniques just get that much better? Possibly. But what if a guy who used the system decided to get a halo for destruction of that system?

Well… Don’t worry too much. Money moves so that rich cities no longer are, the creatives move around so that centers of creativity aren’t (see Haight Ashbury), etc etc etc.

Look for a spot with friends that calls to you. I miss Washington heights, now that I live a little south of LA. Gonna try Seattle out next, just following where the work is and where the people are.

That said, I bet you’ll find something in NYC if you looked.

It was so bad 😵‍💫

Meh… It was already planned to Disney stylings by the tail end of Dinkins. Giuliani actually followed the plans though.

RubberElectrons,
@RubberElectrons@lemmy.world avatar

I’d say it’s irrelevant. So NYC had an area that looked a little scuzzy and rundown. It added to the flavor of the city, where people could go for scuzzy entertainment. 🤷

Fuck yeah, you remember when he lost the fight against the Brooklyn museum of art for a painting of the virgin Mary made of elephant dung?

In other cultures, that dung symbolizes the potential for life, but it offended that sensitive fascist bitch to where he tried to cut 1/3 of our tax money to the museum until they took it down. Courts denied that loser for violating the first amendment. And that kept happening, repeatedly, he’d violate the first amendment, lose the associated lawsuit and cost the City millions in the process… Repeatedly. What a loser.

I think it was the black family burial grounds under that federal building on court st(?), but you might also be right. There was a lot going on in this big city.

E: this is what I’m talking about, same thing?

Ask whether we got fusion working. Whether we did or didn’t, how do we start attacking our CO2 problem in a way that would minimally disrupt the traveler’s future?

They’ve had time and history to look at for the key knobs and levers to adjust that would solve a lot of our issues (while for sure creating new ones).

To be clear, I don’t live there, nor would I. I’d still see if people are living there for lack of means to escape, or because revoking bodily autonomy isn’t important to them.

I work in alternative energy and such. No need to give up your morals. Maybe you won’t make as much, but that sleep feels so good and without qualms.

That was my biggest gripe of the text, “bees do poorly” translates directly to “it’s unnatural because it’s unbalanced”.

People: we can have progress, and a beautiful world of living companions on this blue spaceship as well. There is no other place like it! I say that as an engineer who enjoys the hell out of his job!

I guess every area has it’s own weirdness… in my part of California, we have to provide our own refrigerators for our rentals! What!

RubberElectrons,
@RubberElectrons@lemmy.world avatar

Really? Can I ask where that is, because that sounds crazy.

If you have vertical clearance above the board, get a pwm 120mm fan, carefully zip tie and call it a day.

The added benefit of an oversized fan beyond noise is that it’s actively cooling other parts of the board which normally may not be reached by the smaller fan.
