Depending on what he did in the military, becoming a cop might have been the only decently paying job he was qualified for.

At this point, I could honestly see a library being better for fact-checking.
Sid Meier’s Pirates
I have dozens of thousands of hours logged in that game, all because it’s so easy to get in to and so hard to get out of. Just turn it on, do some pirate shit, then realize it’s been hours and you probably should have eaten or slept at some point.
I saw all the announcements for Sync, and remembered that Sync for Reddit was my main app a long time ago. Couldn’t recall why I switched to Infinity.
Downloaded Sync for Lemmy today, scrolled past about 4 posts before a box showed up that said “sponsored content.” Now I remember why I switched.
I started a clean Windows install a few weeks ago. Upon first boot, I immediately deleted the program files folder for Edge in an act of defiance to Microsoft. I then realized I had no browser. Had to ask my son to put a Firefox installer on a flash drive for me.
3 days later, I found out that winget exists.
Ah, I apologize, it seems I misinterpreted the top comment. I reread the thread, and now I see the link to an article about increased violence. I was looking at the thread by the context of the top comment’s text alone, so I was interpreting your comments as being about homeless people and drug addicts in general. I still don’t like the idea of prison labor as a solution, but your opinion makes a lot more sense when taken as a response to violent crime. I wonder if the other commenter in this chain made the same mistake.
Apologies again for the misunderstanding.
I think it’s a sincere question. Your comments so far have suggested that you support the idea that execution is an acceptable punishment for people who abuse drugs and then disobey orders from authority. I believe it’s fair to question whether there are lower levels of nuisance that you also believe the death penalty should apply to.
As for the argument as a whole, taking into consideration the cost of training and wages for the prison guards/riflemen/executioners necessary to employ this scheme and the logistical cost of moving these incarcerated laborers to potential work sites, as well as the low quality of the labor they could provide while going through withdrawals, I still think the $10 per day would be cheaper.
I would think it’s because users only interact with their own instance. They would need to post it to their instance first before it can be forwarded to the appropriate community’s instance.
The main shift was that I now strongly prefer console/couch/tv gaming over PC/monitor/desk gaming.
This is the big one for me. My co-workers all wonder why I switched from pc to PlayStation, and I’m like, “dude, you just watched me troubleshoot 10 machines that failed our OS upgrade, and you think I want to come home and find that Windows update just broke my sound drivers again?”
This post showed up in my “all” feed.
It’s possible you’ve had it before and were simply asymptomatic the first time. I only knew I had it the first time because everyone in my house was miserably ill and I tested positive. Two years later, I tested positive again. This time, I had the worst headache of my life, and I was so exhausted that I felt like passing out every time I stood up. Only lasted a day or two, thankfully.
Third vote for connect. Tried jerboa, thought it was hideous. Went out of my way to try Thunder, not enough features. Connect is just right.
I really want to rewatch Home Improvement. My memories of it from childhood paint it as the most progressive thing on tv. It was shocking when I went to see Tim Allen perform “stand-up” a few years ago and it was mostly rants about “snowflakes.”
