Ugh, in the wars of history if you were retreating from the front lines there was at least some hope that unless you got really unlucky you might improve your chances of survival. Now with drones on overwatch it seems like you're as likely to catch a shell when you're trying to get away as when you're right at the front.

Seems like a bad place to be an invader in someone's sovereign territory doesn't it?

Can you drive a manual transmission? by themaxmethod in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[-] themaxmethod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, early 40s from the UK so most people here learn in a manual car. I drive electric now so it only has forwards and backwards to choose from. Can't say I miss the old manual much, it's just so much more chill driving an auto.

Ah brilliant, thanks so much! So many options to choose from so I didn't spot this one.

When I've read a comment thread and want to skip to the next one it's a bit annoying having the top comment still there even though the thread is collapsed, especially when it's a comment such as the TLDR bot.

Could we have the option to collapse threads leaving just the commenter name and an option button to reopen the thread if needed?

I love his simple gags like this, he's always done them so well. Loved my books of Larson cartoons when I was a kid.

Fucks sake. The kids there break my heart. Wish Putin would die already so we can stop this madness.

What's a good podcast you like? by themaxmethod in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[-] themaxmethod@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

The Greatest Generation: a Star Trek podcast by a couple of guys who are just a little bit embarrassed to have a Star Trek podcast. Ben and Adam watch an episode of Star Trek and discuss it with lots of dumb jokes. Worth listening from the start!
