I see some people make similar comments in the gun community here in Australia. Everything they disagree with is considered controversial

These things are often in part military recruitment drives. There are plenty of airshows that don’t use fighter jets and don’t have military booths there (which I’m guessing is happening at that airshow).

My aerobatics instructor (who actually once had a mid air collision and still managed to land the plane by using thrust to pitch) used to fly at a lot of smaller shows where it was genuinely about planes and the pilots, and no hidden agenda

It doesn’t mean the pilots are there for the military, but it is a huge part of it imho. It’s cool to see military planes, but, they’re there so people go "wow, I want to join “air force”

Pretty much. Most of the best games I’ve played have been 20% of the price. They just don’t get much attention

I’ll pass. Too expensive and it’s not like there is anything particularly unique about it to justify the price

The best games I’ve played in the last few years have been actually really cheap

The idea they would end up doing this to avoid parking fees

No idea why we haven’t just banned smoking in public yet.

So f**king tired of picking up cigarettes from literally random places. I find cigarettes on my nature strip every time I mow, and I don’t even smoke.

And smokers aren’t cleaning up after other smokers either. Can’t even enter my local iga without smelling cigerette smoke outside the door

I’ve seen enough cigerettes thrown out of car windows too, and even had someone throw a lot cigarette on my nature strip once whilst I was sitting in my car in my driveway

I don’t give a shit if people do it in their own home but it’s wild that we allow it at all still

It’s funny everyone is suddenly getting banned.

I was on Reddit for at least 10 years. Made a new account, kept arguing against racists

Got banned for racism, obviously by the Nazis. Never got banned in the last 2 decades. And pretty sure none of the racists got banned

But it’s no surprise lemmy isn’t as big. That’s not a bad thing. Reddit is overrun by the same lobbyists and people who have ruined Facebook and made it no longer fun

So he’s saying it’s set in the alternate universe then…

AI is literally just legalized theft of other people’s work. It won’t credit them to any capacity.

Also, whilst it is adding some productivity, it’s also being used by absolute idiots who have no idea what they’re doing spreading bad info and causing other people more work.

Every idiot is typing everything into chatgpt, getting a bad answer which is obvious to anyone half trained and then promoting it like it’s correct just because AI said it

I bought a rog ally x and it plays all the games I need.

I only play sh**ty games that don’t need much CPU anyway

And steam frame I’ll buy too

I actually posted a Reddit a few years ago.

But, I deleted my account and posts a while back too

Can we stop talking about this nobody?

I agree with him, but I’d also agree with my neighbor who probably does something more important than market themselves

Truck drivers a month ago “wahhh, diesel is so expensive, we demand the government gives us handouts, we’ve been struggling for so long and we don’t get paid much”. I simply compare to EV’s, and suddenly apparently diesel ISN’T expensive, and 30mins of your time, is super valuable and costs the company a huge amount. Most truckies return to the depot multiple times in a day (where they could charge). They’re not all doing interstate trips…

I’m not sure what decade you’re living in either. I used to drive a small toyota hatchback, and 20 years ago it cost more than $30 for 800km. Unless your car is a ride on mower, I doubt it lol

What I find particularly hilarious is the prolific racism amongst Truckies (particularly on facebook), especially those claiming they don’t speak english well… And yet, I’ve mentioned multiple times how BYD Blade batteries are full enough in 5 mins (actually 97% charge in 10), and apparently you keep missing it. Full charge is NOT important. In fact, in Aviation, you rarely fly with full tanks

60% of China’s power capacity at this point are renewables, and even if they’re building coal, they’re building renewables much faster… Long term, it’s clear they’re still phasing out coal… The power plants are there, but they probably won’t be running much in 10-20 years time

So are their renewable installations…

I’ve been thinking of buying. Other than creality though, what are good options

Pretty sure though lemmy users produce the strongest sperm. I’m sure RFK Jr researched it or something

My rog ally x is good enough at this point

No idea why someone downvoted you.

Would prefer lots of independent stores than 3 massive conglomerates

Last time I was there, the yanks I was with saw a removedroach outside and freaked out by how big it was.

Here in Australia we call those small.

Also, it’s Denver, so I’m guessing safer than most states

Sold both of my oculus headsets a few months ago. Looking forward to this
