Karrot is a used item app that has a feature where you take a picture of an item and it IDs the item and tells you what it’s worth. It’s pretty impressive. It could ID my houseplants better than some dedicated plant ID apps I’ve used. It’s not great with one of a kind items, but otherwise it’s surprisingly accurate.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How would you respond to the statement "Trans women are biologically male" ?
3·13 days agoI would say that is comparing personal identity to a medical definition, two independent and separate concepts.
Personally, I look at people pointing this out like I look at people that feel the need to point out to others that a woman has breast implants. It’s her choice to do what she wants to her own body and pointing it out makes you look like a rude asshole.
The most self awareness I’ve ever seen in a Trump voter.
Under what definition of fascism do Democrats qualify?
The fact that one of those two parties will win does not mean we need to accept the DNC as a valid representative of the working classes, as they fix nothing and maintain imperialism.
They may or may not fix anything, but the RNC will make things worse. The RMC has enabled a fascist takeover that is stripping rights from LGBT people, spreading contagious diseases with antivax policy, abusing and shooting people dead in the street in the name of border security, initiating a coup in Venezuela by kidnapping a national leader, murdering sailors with drone strikes, and denying the basic civil liberties of millions of residents. You can tell me all day about how bad the DNC is but at the end of the day they are the least worst choice.
Every fascist government in history has taken power in large part because the opposition was too busy fighting amongst themselves. There need to be only to sides right now - fascism and anti-fascism.
Both the DNC and GOP are far-right parties of genocidal imperialists
And one of these will be running the country in 2028. Forming a coalition to fight them is a great long term goal, bit it takes time and momentum.
We need to stop treating capitalist-controlled and run elections as our primary political outlet
As of September 2025, 54% have a positive view of capitalism compared to 39% with a positive view of socialism. Those numbers are converging, but we have at least a decade or two before they cross. We just don’t have the numbers to pull it off.
revolutionary working class parties.
Unions. We need to build unions. When a majority of people see unions working for them against the capitalists, then they will be ready to accept something new.
Oh look, a meme HELPING fascism.

5·4 months agoThe chemical most places use for drycleaning is perchloroethylene, or perc, which can contaminate groundwater if not stored or disposed of properly.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something you can see, hear, smell, etc., that others can't?
21·4 months agoI used to operate a drill rig for taking soil and water samples. I learned to read all the utility markings and to spot the telltale markings of previous drill work. I can walk around an urban area and tell you where all the gas stations and drycleaners used to be just based on a look at the pavement. In that sense I can “see” things others can’t.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What songs or covers of songs used in movie and/or movie trailers but never got a proper release?
5·5 months agoThe version of Sugar High used in Empire Records with a female vocalist.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Help! Drone motors 2 & 3 in wrong direction, not possible to switch using Betaflight. USB defective, any way to access ESC Configurator using WiFI connection?
6·6 months agoMaybe a dumb suggestion, but physically switch the positive and negative wires on the motors?

Yes, some cops are going to use chokeholds regardless of bans. Some people are going to commit murder regardless of it being illegal too. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t bother having laws against murder. The fact that chokes are not reduced to zero by chokehold bans does not negate that it reduces the number of chokes used. In the same way, the fact that cops will sometimes shut off their cams does not negate the times that they don’t turn off the cams and it allows victims to seek justice.
I am aware of Killilogy and Warrior Cop training. Cops receiving the wrong training is an entirely separate issue from the cost of improved training.
Finally, please refrain from personal attacks as this detracts from your arguments and violates community guidelines.
I am hoping that the success of Zohran Mamdani is seen as a blueprint moving forward.


It is a virtual certainty that at some point a meteor large enough to wipe out all multicellular life on the planet will strike the Earth. It is an absolute certainty that the Sun will eventually burn out leaving the planet uninhabitable. Something else might wipe out our species long before either of these things happen, but it’s not a bad idea to have another inhabited planet or two as a backups.
