I differentiate between “country” and “western” in my mind, with the likes of Dolly Parton being western.

News@lemmy.world•Woman hadn't slept for days before passing out behind wheel, causing fatal crash
6·2 days ago…under the influence of Trazodone, a prescription drug used to treat severe depression and anxiety
Okay, sure, but it’s mostly–or at least very commonly–used to treat insomnia, which seems just a tad more relevant here.

2·2 days agoNo, you’re thinking too much into it. The point of “six seven” is that it’s meaningless.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you get when you combine the last two books you read?
2·2 days agoIf they were recent, yeah.
No! Then it will shoot water off to the sides. You must hold it, backside up, angled downward.
Obviously, this will depend on the shape of your spoon.

World News@lemmy.world•China pursues Hong Kong activists abroad: 'My life has changed totally'
5·4 days agoHow is anybody surprised by this? They started this sort of international campaign of spying on, kidnapping, and otherwise cracking down on their own citizens decades ago.
I was first informed of the practice by a Chinese friend over 20 years ago. Of course they still do it, and it will be worse now than ever before with how technology has evolved, and with how further entrenched their authoritarian government has become.
Back in the day, you could also type ‘AND’ and Google would interpret it the same as it later did the plus symbol.

news@lemmings.world•Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warns a 'substantial' number of Americans won't be able to travel for Thanksgiving
1·5 days agoI do think that’s mostly a good thing.
Rarely is Thanksgiving travel necessary. I understand the emotional aspects of it, but interrupting the annual cycle that’s constantly occupying us with consumerist nonsense in any significant way seems like a win. And all that air travel is horrible for the environment.

LeopardsAteMyFace@lemmy.ca•Bitter Trump Voter Says He’s Been ‘Completely Swindled’ By President’s ‘Betrayal’
0·5 days agoI sincerely cannot imagine what it is like to live in the bubbles that people like this do. To so make of us nothing has been surprising.
What media was he me consuming? What media was being pushed at him? To what degree was he even aware of information and views counter to what he was receiving?
Much as he might think of me, if he took the time.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that states that voted for Donald Trump have a higher murder rate than states that didn't.

News@lemmy.world•Trump says he'll issue $2,000 tariff dividend to all except 'high-income people'
14·5 days agoI think a lot of people don’t get this.
Imagine there’s something that you want–maybe a lot, maybe only a little. What that something is doesn’t matter.
What amount of money would you consider to be a negligible amount for you to spend to get that thing you want? Maybe it’s a few dollars or maybe it’s as little as 10 cents. For me, now that I am reasonably comfortable, anything that only costs about a dollar, I consider to basically be free.
This is how the wealthy view anything that is “only” in the thousands of dollars.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Social Pain (rejection) and physical pain overlap parts of the same neural pain pathway, and acetaminophen (paracetamol) alleviate social pain. Proof of social pain hurts as much as physical pain
5·5 days agoThere is also research that shows that acetaminophen is not a particularly effective pain reliever, or at least, that it is only an effective pain reliever for a subset of the population.
So I don’t know how much this would prove.

I must have missed the part where OP said, “There shouldn’t be any photorealistic games.”
