Thanks! Tried the Google reverse image search to no joy.

Someone doesn’t actually want to sell it. They want to say they’ve tried and that the price needs lowering…

Please enlighten me

I did something similar, deliberately.

Bought a car, it’s tyre repeatedly deflated every 3 days, kept taking it into the garage and they said they’d fix it each time. Third time, drop car off, they tried telling me its the cold weather thats causing ONE tyre to keep going down.
I tell them thats bullshit, take their courtesy car for the day, I had a 40mile commute each way. The hire car had 20miles of fuel in it so had to find a garage quick.

When I returned it that night, I had to nurture it home, and it ticked over to 0 miles left as I free-wheeled into their forecourt. I had some satisfaction that day. That day, they actually fixed the tyre.

In the not too distant past, my best friend found out her husband had an affair with a mid-teenager. He was careful not to break the consent age, but the whole thing is Yuk all round.

I called him a Paedophile. She argued he’s not. Hebephile is the word - its still effing disgusting to have middle aged men training their sexual interests on people too young to be trusted to drink, to vote, etc.

Plus people commuting less = less pollution and less congestion.

Good for people, good for the planet, bad for profit for some.

As the parent to a 5 year old, I feel this sooooo much.

I’m having to change my “just-a-second”, as she takes it literally - a second is counted. I now say just-a-minute. Frozen got it bang on when Anna says "just give us a minute " and you can hear Olaf quietly start counting to 60.

The idea behind calling it CSAM is that “porn” has become synonymous with something desirable - foodporn, earthporn as examples.

Child porn needs to keep it’s status as abhorrent, however the term is changing its nature (as language can).

This is it.

I’ve had an awful experience recently with an ex-friend, caught having an “affair” with his 16yr old employee. He’s mid 40s. Turns out, the only illegal part is that there’s pictures. He can fuck girls still at school legally, but he can’t send her or request any pictures. It’s insane.

Another layer is that the age of consent rises 18, but ONLY if you’re in a school, healthcare, care-taking, Religion or sports club setting. According to the law, being her Boss doesn’t mean he’s in a Position of Trust or a Position of Authority over her. Yet, he plainly is.

Luxembourg has a gay Prime Minister. While not Head of State because Lux still has a King, he is rather up there in terms of practicality.

I’m on kbin, really hoping that the new Sync will work here. However, given the way Lemmy works, I believe that it won’t really matter as its just another instance in the Federation

Google Maps is now showing me routes which will get me there in minus minutes. I’m intrigued.

Ask me a month ago and it would’ve been Reddit Sync.

Now - WhatsApp, kbin, YouTube

Makes you wonder why the staff unionised in the first place. Sounds like they weren’t being valued from the offset.

Banana and Salad Cream sandwiches.

The Salad Cream adds a nice tangyness, you can tell yourself the banana makes it healthy, and you’ve got a proper student sandwich.

Works surprisingly well.

I don’t have a technical answer for you, but as a likely subscriber - I’m glad to see you here. Its (lemmy/kbin universe) is feeling more and more like a reddit replacement day by day.

Welcome & look forward to finding you wherever the sub ends up 👍

Just subbed/posted

Replaced by whom?

I get that some people will step up into being Mods, but modding is hard and thankless work - I’ve done it a few times over the years.

There’s always subs crying out for new Mods, so you’ll end up scraping the barrel for Mods, then the quality will go down, people will get pissed off. With thousands of Subs suddenly needing modding, there’s simply not enough volunteers to go around.

One of Reddits unsung resources was its army of Mods keeping the content of some quality (define that as you will). Reddit really is cutting its nose off right now.
