There are some articles about his death linked on Wikipedia but they’re pretty just-the-facts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Kyanka

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Apocalypse movies in the near future won't have survivors scavaging abandoned cars.
4·1 year agoThey did a good job covering that in The Last of Us (season one, episode…4 or 5?): 20ish years post-apocalypse, someone very prepared has kept battery cells in a refrigerator (in acid maybe?) and they have to rebuild the battery before they can use the car, but the battery works.
Yeah, she still seems like a terrible person but probably the least terrible of this whole crew. Certainly less terrible than SBF.

44·1 year agoNo, the mods will just get constant streams of false positive flags they have to clear.

Technology@lemmy.ml•How to delete Facebook, Instagram, and Threads | TechCrunch
101·1 year agoYes, I only respect journalists who never update their opinions or recommendations given new information. Everyone needs to use psychic foresight to determine the best takes and then never ever change them. Meta was always exactly as bad as it is today. /s

Technology@lemmy.world•The erasure of Luigi MangioneEnglish
44·1 year agoYeah, I edited the post to call that out specifically

Technology@lemmy.world•The erasure of Luigi MangioneEnglish
1184·1 year agoThat’s not what the article is about. Stack Overflow has kept content that Luigi created up, but removed his username, in violation of Creative Commons. Edited the post to make that more clear.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I have a Kindle, but it doesn't scroll and I'm a scroller. Anybody got an Android app that scrolls ebooks really well? Preferably open source and able to access the web (where my library resides)?
6·1 year agoThe Kindle app for Android has an option for continuous scroll instead of page turn.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•This weird AI-generated engagement baitEnglish

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future?
6·2 years agoYeah, though clues are few and far between; the

museum in Tanchico with the Mercedes hood ornament
is the biggest clue. From Jordan’s other writings, the
spoiler
First age was our time, then humans created an AI powerful enough to genetically engineer humans to be able to do magic,
and that led to the Age of Legends.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I know if a medical issue should be addressed by a Clinic Visit, Urgent Care, or the Emergency Room?
5·2 years agoLosing consciousness for any reason = ER. A friend passed out during dinner and we weren’t sure what to do, so we called the triage nurse and they were like “ER now!” (He was fine, they never figured out what happened and it’s never happened again, but it’s definitely stayed with me.)

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I know if a medical issue should be addressed by a Clinic Visit, Urgent Care, or the Emergency Room?
25·2 years agoGreat criteria. Another “straight to the ER” one is loss of consciousness; people get knocked out in movies all the time so it’s easy to assume it’s fine, but it’s not.



Oh, I loved it. I’ve read all three twice. But no book is for everyone! That’s why there are so many different books. :)
