I don’t think I like you.
My gums hurt without looking at this.
Just kidding. My gums are one of the few things that don’t hurt.
I didn’t notice the clothing change at first, so my first thought was that it gets cold in Autumn, hence
be funny at your own pace
Taking this as a kind comment, this is probably the … Third nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. Maybe fourth. Thanks.
Yes, I am pondering trying to take over the world!
… I’m too tired to actually be funny/relevant, but I appreciate your engagement.
Yeah, so … This statement summarizes many of the problems with my modern life.
edit: Also, I like your username. It makes me think of both Discworld and Adventure Time, two things that serve to partially counter the depressing nature of this conversation.

You can end a line with a backslash to have single line line breaks.
Lemmy just uses markdown, so any good guide for that should be able to help you:
https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#line-breaks
If you can’t find a specific thing, just searching “how to x in markdown” in your preferred search engine should net you an answer if x is supported.
There are also many markdown editors that can be run either locally or through a browser; these can be useful if you want to test some syntax without putting any mistakes in the eyes of the public. I like Obsidian for local editing and usually recommend this one for online testing.
Hope all that helps!
This comment section makes me feel old.
Why are there non breaking spaces?
Well, to be fair, that one is easier to undo (and, depending on the command you pasted, might take care of itself when you start a new session).
But yeah … Running visudo
and getting a nano
interface should be illegal IMHO.
I like how you got two (yes, now three) responses which were simultaneously exactly in agreement with and directly opposing each other.
My most intrusive Linux thought is to symlink vi
to emacs
(or vice versa).
If Jimmy Carter was so great, why was he attacked by a swimming rabbit? Maybe they knew something we don’t know.
Did you know that there are only two major canning companies in the US and the one that canned your Monster is likely to just be whichever had a facility closer to you? Did you know there are rivalries? Apparently Rexam is considered the cheaper and lower quality one. (And sadly the one nearest me when I learned all of this!)
This tool looks like it could be moderately entertaining for a few minutes, though it seems at the moment it only supports Pepsi products and I don’t have any sodas nearby anyway.
Note: I learned all of the above fun facts from an askreddit comment; not only that, but it was well over a decade ago. At the time I drank a lot of Monster and what the post said seemed to match up with what was on the can from which I was drinking at the time. However, I can’t guarantee it was 100% accurate then and certainly not now, many years later.
Initially thought that bottom panel was a crab.
I have three cars: '24 Chevy Bolt, a '24 Ford Edge, and a '79 Corvette. Unfortunately, for some unfathomable reason, the Corvette doesn’t have an associated app or even any remote connectivity. However, as you observed, the Ford does; as I mentioned, so does the Bolt.
The Chevy app I mostly use to make sure it’s plugged in before I go to bed. My Ford mostly stays outside of my garage, so the app primarily serves to start it remotely, letting the climate control run for a few minutes before I come out. (I also occasionally use it to honk because it amuses me, but I live in the middle of nowhere and am not bothering anyone other than maybe my wife.)
Back before the world was what it is today, I used to have a used '19 Tesla Model 3 (I replaced it with the Bolt). There were good things and bad things about it, but disregarding any social issues for the purpose of this comment, the app was better-functioning than that of any car I’ve purchased since. I was grandfathered into everything, so nothing was paywalled, and most of the stuff worked most of the time, unlike the Ford or Chevy apps which usually require multiple tries and sometimes chastise me for trying multiple times.
And since I’m writing about cars, I will say that the absolute best (for personal enjoyment, not external considerations) vehicle I’ve ever owned was a 2014 Ford Flex, Titanium Trim. There was no app because 2014, but goddamn if I didn’t love that car.
Damn, dude. Glad it’s just a joke, but that’s the nerdiest and most circumspect way I’ve ever seen this expressed.
My '24 Chevy does this, too. Lock, unlock and remote start apparently route through OnStar, so using those requires an OnStar subscription.
