The Associated Press seems to have a decent results presentation ready to go:

I wouldn’t bother watching minute-by-minute. There is a decent chance that some swing state will be close enough to trigger a recount, and/or one side files lawsuits challenging the results. This circus is far from over.

Making quiche for brunch. Apparently an omelet is fine, but a scrambled omelette is gay.

@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world is a meme god.

@PugJesus@lemmy.world keeps history alive and the Confederacy in check.

@anon6789@lemmy.world is our resident owl afficionado.

There are many others, of course, but I seem to notice these three a lot in my Subscribed feed.

Some brands do this continually. That’s how Eddie Bauer or The Gap is constantly having a 30% off sale on one thing or another.

And it works. It’s called “price anchoring.”

Independence Day in theaters, Seinfeld on TV, The Macarena all over the place. Hell yeah, '96.

When viewing the lemmy.world main page it should be on the right side:

This is normal behavior for the default Lemmy UI. Here is the Lemmy developers’ GitHub page, where you can open issues to request changes: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui

What interface are you using to browse Lemmy? A mobile app like Voyager/Thunder/Summit/etc., or the standard web UI, or an alternate web UI like Alexandrite/Photon/Tesseract?

There are lots of ways to view Lemmy and they all offer very different features.

Edit: The web UIs can also look different on desktop versus mobile.

I’m amazed that Project Orion went on as long as it did.

If you want to make a formal feature request for the default Lemmy web interface then you want to go here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui

I don’t think there is a Lemmy community for informal feature discussion with the developers.

As some others mentioned, the behavior might be different if you are using an app or an alternate web front end.

That cheaper 88 octane fuel is a blend of 85% unleaded gasoline and 15% ethanol. It’s also known as E15 fuel.

The ethanol is an oxygenate: it adds oxygen atoms to the fuel mix so the fuel burns more completely. That’s good for vehicle emissions. However, the ethanol is less energy dense than gasoline so you will get slightly worse mileage.

Some people had magazine racks next to the toilet. There was a whole Seinfeld episode about George taking a book into the bathroom.

Contact your local sailing club/yacht club. They often have classes and rental boats. Even if they don’t, you can sometimes find someone with a boat who is willing to teach a beginner.

“Sabotage” by the Beastie Boys is the same Ab7 chord for the whole song. Lock in that one chord shape and then all you have to do is get the strumming pattern. Put a capo across four strings on the first fret to make life even easier for your left hand.

This page says there are slight changes in the chorus. Just don’t strum the low E string for that part. If you or your friends are belting out the lyrics then it won’t matter anyway.

The intro and verse to “About A Girl” by Nirvana is also easy. You go back and forth between Em and G, and it’s a relaxed tempo. To play the chorus you have to learn a few bar chords. https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/nirvana/about-a-girl-tabs-36242

Yeah. I love water!

Swimming! The summer heat is here (it was 98F/36C today) and the neighborhood pool is open, so there is no better place to be in the afternoons.

Competing standards and clueless sellers are bad, and then the tire marketing makes things even worse.

Marketed for road? That’s 700c.
Marketed for mountain? That’s 29".
Marketed for ebikes? That’s 28".

But all three tires fit on the same 622mm diameter rim.

This is the answer right here. Hook up with a local sailing club and take classes. If you love it, make friends with other sailors and rent the club’s boats.

If there’s interesting stuff to see near shore, and the tides are manageable, then kayaking is also great. It’s cheap and easy to get into, and great exercise.
