  • I hate Tesla as much as the next guy, but this article lacks any context and makes some assumptions about malicious intent. Are these the only articles removed, or did they purge a bunch of articles from two decades ago? Maybe these articles were stored in a legacy database and someone finally decided to clean it up, then the media is twisting it into “they’re changing history!”

    (Disclaimer: I’m speculating heavily here given my lack of context, so these may very well have been removed on purpose due to their content)

    My dad doesn’t drink alcohol, but is one of these people. He drinks coffee pretty much exclusively, it’s rare to see him with even a cup of water or anything else. He falls asleep on his couch with an empty coffee mug sitting beside him all the time.



  • I go there still when I want product recommendations that aren’t full of marketing/ads. If I use a search engine to search for example, “dashcam recommendations,” I get a million results that are sponsored, SEO-optimized, or otherwise garbage. If I go on Reddit, I’ll find an entire community devoted to the topic with seemingly real people discussing the pros/cons of all different models.

    I’ve tried searching with Lemmy but most of the time I can’t find the answers I’m looking for so end up crawling back to Reddit.

    I absolutely don’t go there to doomscroll like I used to, I’ve thankfully moved on from that life.

    I got ChatGPT to write me a silly dialogue ending in this line:

    Samantha: “Arthur, how could you?”

    Arthur: “What? What did I do this time, Samantha?”

    Samantha: “You’ve put mayonnaise on the roast chicken again! You know I can’t stand the stuff!”

    Arthur: “But, Samantha, it adds so much flavor!”

    Samantha: “Arthur, it doesn’t. It just makes everything taste like… mayonnaise!”

    Arthur: “That’s the point! You know I’ve always loved it.”

    Samantha: “I thought you loved me.”

    Arthur: “Well, of course, I do.”

    Samantha: “Well, you can’t have both of us.”

    Arthur: “What, you want me to choose between you and mayonnaise?”

    Samantha: “Yes, exactly. Do you love mayonnaise or do you love me?”


  • FWIW California at least allows new fathers to take 12 weeks paternity leave. My company normally only offers 4 weeks of paid paternity leave, but my coworker managed to get 12 by living in California. I believe he only got paid for 4 weeks of it since I don’t think the rule requires employers to pay the whole thing, but at least he got a lot of time off to help his wife and bond with his new son.
