I’m pretty sure that most of these hyper-yachts have helicopter pads. For transporting one person and their mistresses, it takes up a lot less topside real estate. The plebes can spend time on a boat between harbor and yacht if they need to get on or off.

It was one of the highest grossing movies of all time. Pretty much everyone loved that movie.

A LOT of the current Republican policies are based on the stuff that happened during his administration.

I’m fairly heavily invested into Alexa for powering my home. When I wanted to have some smart screens as well as video calling devices for communication to family, I bought a few Fire8 tablets for cheap, along with some stands that could telescope to almost 4 feet tall. I put the tablets into their smart display modes and they work pretty well for what I paid. The audio quality isn’t as good as the actual Alexa devices I have, but they are super portable with built in batteries and they even work OK as websurfing/video tablets now that we don’t need them as communication devices anymore.

It’s my understanding that they’re not supposed to be in collusion but color me jade green.

Won’t PACs make up the difference here? I imagine that there are a lot of mega donors in the Republican Party that are sick of Trump.

My 6ish year old Sony was purchased with the built in OS as my least important quality, as I knew that someday it’d be unsupportable as far as new apps, but that a third party box would provide a good experience with a single HDMI. I’m actually still using the built in OS but I can tell that it’s getting slower and buggier, so I’m thinking of getting a Roku soon.

Eh, I’d say earlier than that. Twitter was pretty much trash by 2010 in my book.

So stupid. The idea that a public servant could refuse service to someone due to their personal views should immediately trigger their firing.

By the same token, can a black police officer refuse to arrest someone of their own race? Can a tax auditor refuse to investigate a pedo if they have those same beliefs? Can a permit office refuse to let a Catholic Church add on a wing?

I’m still having challenges getting an account to actually go through at Lemmy.World. I’m able to see content from another instance, but I’m a fan of looking at “all” as it opens up a lot of great content that you might not catch otherwise, so having multiple accounts at multiple sites is something I’m planning for at this point.

I’ve been unable to get the sign up process to finish on Lenny.world. Fill out the fields and the submit button just spins forever.
