Looks like Türkiye to me.

I've had it happen to me, unintentionally. I worked in a retail store with a helium tank for inflating balloons. We thought it was the height of comedy to take a breath of helium when we did our overhead announcements. I decided to make a long announcement, so I exhaled as much as possible and took a deep breath of helium. The next thing I remember, I'm on the ground, my head hurts, and people are asking me if I'm okay. Apparently I made it about three steps before collapsing. I have no recollection of walking or passing out.

Make it a baker's dozen because I played it too! I never beat the sequel, though.

He can't pardon state crimes.

CrossCode was SO good! It's a great game and I'm always thrilled when I find others that played it.

Did you know its studio, Radical Fish, has another game coming?

It's a problem for men with penises that are long when flaccid. Their penises can touch the inside of the bowl when they're seated unless they hold their penis up.

I think now is a great time to separate pride events from these corporate scum. They never have been and will never be allies, just opportunists who would just as willingly burn parades to the ground if it maximizes profit. The capitalist machine will never be your friend.

And Trump and Gingrich.

If we had shitty rewards, I'd give you a Lemmy Latinum.

This is me, exactly. We're leaving the country in the next 6-8 months and can't justify selling it just to buy another car that we'll then sell soon after. In the meantime, I get shit for "being a nazi" despite being a leftist. Good times.

Honestly, I love the car. We haven't had any issues with it, it drives great, the features are nice, and the energy efficiency is top notch. I wish Elno would step down as CEO and/or die so we could take it with us, but I doubt he will.

Why would you do that to this poor man? No one deserves to be saddled with Elon.

Because he's a billionaire. Rules for thee but not for me.

Hi everyone, I know this isn't 100% on topic but this seemed like the closest fit. You all tend to be more generally knowledgeable than the average Lemming. Feel free to remove if it's too off topic.

In the last few years, I watched what I believe was a YouTube video on South Korean misinformation about North Korea. It discussed defectors, the conditioning they receive after defecting, and celebrity defectors. I recall it also interviewed some North Koreans living in South Korea.

Does anyone know the video I'm thinking of?

 

I couldn't find a more appropriate place to post this. It's a bar in Reykjavik. Cool place, would recommend.

 

Seriously people, use the fucking fan. It clears away odors and covers up the sounds of your dropping a deuce. If you want to stew in your shit smell and revel in the music of your magical poop plops, do so in the comfort of your own home. If you're a guest and the bathroom has a fan, turn it on. We don't want to share.

Sorry friends, that's at-will employment, *and you still can't be terminated for any reasons that are protected by law, but we're not here to discuss that. Right-to-work laws mean one thing: that non-union employees cannot be required to contribute to the cost of union representation.

The Taft-Hartley Act of 1947 prohibits "closed shops", where union membership is a condition of employment; however, union represented positions can still be required to contribute to the cost of that representation. Right-to-work laws prohibit that requirement, allowing employees in union represented positions who choose not to join the union to also choose whether or not they contribute to the union's costs, i.e., if they pay dues or not.

I see this mistake frequently and thought folks might want to know the correct information so they don't unintentionally perpetuate it.

Edit: updated to include link to info about at-will employment.

Halp! Calibrating touchscreen on Panasonic CF-30

Hey all! I've been having an issue I can't figure out. Suddenly, I realized I'm in the heart of Linux users! I can ask here! I'm a total noob, so please be gentle.

I installed Xubuntu and got everything but the touchscreen working properly. The touchscreen works but the cursor is consistently off a bit, with the least error in the center of the screen and increasing as it moves to the sides. I've tried running xinput_calibrator but it doesn't help. I attempted to run libinput.calibrate-touchscreen but keep getting a "is a Wayland compositor running?" error message.

Any suggestions?
