Small steps are how engineering gets done. It's a rare technology that proves its value overnight.

Bean chili is a perfectly legitimate chili. FIGHT ME!

I'd call it chili. Eggs cooked in the sauce is what makes it shakshuka.

Well, Steve Hoffstetter is a professional comedian, and his FB posts are to drum up interest in his live shows.

I use FB quite a bit, but then I don’t engage with it for news. It really is just for keeping in touch with friends.

I never thought I'd watch conservatives applaud Russia rebuilding the Iron Curtain.

For real, go to a library and ask a librarian for help.

They'll have various books aimed at different levels of maturity and reading levels. Get a book, read it yourself, then ask him to read it and talk about what you learned.

Well. He's gotten better.

I think he really struggled understanding that he was seen as a leader, and that people were modelling his behavior because he was setting the standard. Once he realized that, his criticisms became more... measured.

Possible username abuse? (Resolved by lemm.ee admins Aug 29 2023) (lemmy.world)

Hey folks. A question for you.

I'm RickRussell_CA on lemmy.world, kbin.social, lemmy.ml, and beehaw.org.

When I saw that lemm.ee was coming up in the rankings, I decided that perhaps I should stake my claim here. But, as you may guess, there is already a RickRussell_CA on lemm.ee.

It's even using the profile picture that I had originally used on lemmy.world. It's made 1 comment (on a since deleted post) and no submissions.

I've used the "Forgot password" link and it's definitely not my account, as it doesn't recognize my email.

I understand that this is a risk under the Fediverse model, but I'm a bit worried that somebody staked this out as a way of impersonating me.

Is there any way to address this?

EDIT: lemm.ee admins saw this post, and banned the account. Thanks to them!

Big pack of AD&D titles from Humble Bundle (Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment, Neverwinter Nights), $12 for 8 titles (www.humblebundle.com)
 

I already own all of these titles on multiple platforms, but if you're missing any of these classics, now's a good time to build out your Steam library for just a couple bucks per game.
