Nothing in what you describe are “children’s toys”. LEGO, Atari, RC cars, etc can be enjoyed by all ages.

Don’t let your personal insecurities convince you otherwise.

I’m a 48-yo man who enjoys retro gaming, and I would love to get into LEGO if I had the space for it. And if anybody tried to tell me otherwise, I’d laugh at them.

I’ve lived too damn long worried about what other people think about me to care anymore. I’m going to live MY life now, and you should live YOURS. Fuck the haters.

~Now get off my lawn!~

Technically it is the top-level domain name for Mali.

I’m fairly certain that the Lemmy devs chose it because of their two favorite socialists/communists: Marx and Lenin. But I can’t find a reference to that right now.

Oh god. That is so me. Always with the “if only” mentality. If only ________ then I could do ________.

And of course, it never gets done. 😅

This is the equivalent of a woodworker building jigs and other tools with their thousands-of-dollars of equipment.

Source: me. I do this. 😬

a … ball of dog muscle

I am going to start referring to my dog this way. 🤣

I have to scowl or frown for my phone to recognize my face. Apparently I look too different when I’m smiling/happy. 🤷‍♂️

As is a lot of other countries. It’s a growing trend that should alarm everyone.

And countries like Russia, North Korea, and China should all serve as examples of what happens when ruling parties get their way.

That stopdrinking comm’s mantra is “just for today I’m not drinking” or something like it. It’s a good mantra. You got this!

I’ve the next three weeks off, and a living room that is in disrepair. I may not get it finished before the new year, but I’m going down swinging!

Just make sure you dispose of the body in the smallest, thinnest container possible.

I was thinking around the outer edge of whatever separates the circle from the wall, so the illumination comes from behind.

Edit: on a second look, I might’ve been mistaken.

Wow. Great choices! Would the TARDIS wall also include LED lighting behind each circle? Because as much of a pain in the ass as that would it, it’d also be like bow ties.

I just wrapped my kids’ Christmas presents and put them under the tree. I really took my time this year too.

It really should’ve said “I killed women, and children too”.

Probably because jobs at burger joints were on the rise. 😬

(with apologies to any philosophers that read this)

Why? They’d probably love a job cooking burgers.

Where I’m from, we call it Halloween. Best day of the year!

If you haven’t already found it, you need to change your global git config (~/.gitconfig):

git config --global init.defaultBranch main

(or whatever you want to call it; e.g. daddy would work too)

For any existing repositories you want to run the following command in the existing repository root (./.git/config):

git config set init.defaultBranch main

I literally love and hate this comment.
