It’s a solvent that can dissolve a lot of stuff. This may make the part seem lubricated at first but it shouldn’t be used as a lubricant. It attracts dust that will, eventually, gum things up.

politics @lemmy.world•‘Ridiculous’: Pentagon doesn’t even know what to do with extra $500 billion Trump wants to spendEnglish
7·2 days agoYeah, I’m sure if friends and family will spin up some new consulting companies, suppliers and middle men to soak up the excess.

Neat - For neat stuff you found@lemmy.world•How far back in time can you understand English?English
7·2 days agoFrom the article:
They’re both performances of a sort: the 2000s protagonist is performing for his blog’s audience, so the tone is chatty and personal. The 1800s protagonist, with the mind of a Georgian diarist, is performing for posterity, so he philosophizes.
I thought that was interesting.

Neat - For neat stuff you found@lemmy.world•How far back in time can you understand English?English
1·2 days agoThat’s exactly what’s happening. If you read the author’s explanation, around 1250 is when English starts picking the up the Latin and French loan words that modern English speakers are used to.
English is a Germanic language. So, without the loan words, it is very much more like German.
As long as you’re redesigning us intelligently, straighten out that recurrent laryngeal nerve.

4·6 days agoDoubt it, there would have been a lawsuit and Moderna would have won.
This whole debacle was Vinay Prasad’s doing and he wasn’t at this last meeting with Moderna. It’s likely he was not allowed to go. He’s a fucking idiot and keeps fucking up. They had a month to grant Moderna a meeting after rejecting them. They scheduled it within a week. They know they fucked up.
My friend has a VPN and runs them on his desktop Mac. He’s considering running on an old laptop or some other dedicated device
- VPN is a must.
- qbittorrent bound to the VPNs virtual network device.
- Prowlarr is enough to get started. Add some public trackers.
Then, Sonarr and Radarr for show and movie automation. Once you’re hooked, you’ll figure out the rest.

politics @lemmy.world•‘Crap’: Stephen Colbert blasts CBS for denying it blocked James Talarico interview from airEnglish
61·7 days agoA verifiable Christian publicly pointing out that Trump and most Republicans aren’t real Christians is possibly one of the most damaging attacks that can be made against them.
Losing Christians—even just to apathy—would be the death of the Republican Party. Conservatives have courted, manipulated and used Christian righteousness to get where they are today. They need them.
It’s why Peter Thiel is talking about the antichrist. The American conservative engine runs on holier-than-thou, righteous indignation.

The YSK is poorly worded but not wrong.
