It’s too complicated to say “a surplus”.

Lemmy welcomes you, new ex-redditors.

Well, I’ve had DLs in multiple states and they all required fingerprints. The little digital ones. Maybe that’s not the case everywhere though.

As I said. They already have it.

However, jammers are illegal to use in the U.S.

What is the point of adding this bit for an article about burglaries?

I’m okay with the TSA scan (pre-check) since… you know… they already have you if you took a picture for your ID.

Humans are prone to violence. The only differences now are: Our tribes are bigger and our sticks and stones have rockets and explodey bits.

I’m still sullen about napster. It didn’t change anything about music sharing- other than to take music sharing into the spotlight. I.e., they got greedy and gained the attention of the media.

By extension of this philosophy, we shouldn’t bury people, since worms will desecrate their deceased flesh. It seems to me then that shrunken heads might be a good way to save space.

I’m okay with it. Unless we start putting them on keychains. That might be taking it too far.

Uh. This is not a good picture my journalism dudes. It’s strap-on; what kind of tasks are we talking about here?

Do you expect us to consume that?
